THE INFORMATION IN THIS PROSPECTUS IS NOT COMPLETE AND MAY BE CHANGED. WE MAY NOT SELL THESE SECURITIES UNTIL THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION IS EFFECTIVE. THIS PROSPECTUS IS NOT AN OFFER TO SELL THESE SECURITIES, AND IT IS NOT SOLICITING AN OFFER TO BUY THESE SECURITIES IN ANY STATE WHERE THE OFFER AND SALE IS NOT PERMITTED. SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED JULY 10, 2003 PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC. OFFER TO EXCHANGE 7.75% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2013 THAT HAVE BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED FOR ANY AND ALL OF ITS OUTSTANDING 7.75% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2013 THAT WERE ISSUED AND SOLD IN A TRANSACTION EXEMPT FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED --------------------- Amkor Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation, hereby offers to exchange, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this prospectus and the accompanying letter of transmittal, up to $425 million in aggregate principal amount of its 7.75% senior notes due 2013, which we refer to as the "exchange notes," for the same principal amount of its outstanding 7.75% senior notes due 2013, which we refer to as the "original notes." The terms of the exchange notes are substantially identical to the terms of the original notes, except that the exchange notes will generally be freely transferable and do not contain certain terms with respect to liquidated damages. We will issue the exchange notes under the Indenture governing the original notes. For a description of the principal terms of the exchange notes, see "Description of the Notes." THE EXCHANGE OFFER WILL EXPIRE AT 5:00 P.M. NEW YORK CITY TIME, ON , 2003, UNLESS WE EXTEND THE OFFER. At any time prior to the expiration date, you may withdraw your tender of any original notes; otherwise, such tender is irrevocable. We will receive no cash proceeds from the exchange offer. The exchange notes constitute a new issue of securities for which there is no established trading market. Any original notes not tendered and accepted in the exchange offer will remain outstanding. To the extent original notes are tendered and accepted in the exchange offer, your ability to sell untendered, and tendered but unaccepted, original notes could be adversely affected. Following consummation of the exchange offer, the original notes will continue to be subject to their existing transfer restrictions and we will have no further obligations to provide for the registration of the original notes under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). We cannot guarantee that an active trading market will develop or give assurances as to the liquidity of the trading market for either the original notes or the exchange notes. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of exchange notes received for original notes that were acquired by such broker-dealer for its own account as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. If any holder of the original notes notifies us prior to the 20th business day following the consummation of the exchange offer that it is prohibited by law or policy of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") from participating in the exchange offer, that it may not resell the exchange notes acquired by it in the exchange offer to the public without delivering a prospectus, and this prospectus is not appropriate or available for such resales by it, or that it is a broker-dealer and holds original notes acquired directly from us or our affiliates, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a shelf registration statement to register for public resale the original notes held by any such holder who provides us with certain information for inclusion in the shelf registration statement, such shelf registration statement to be effective by the SEC on or prior to 120 days after such obligation to file a shelf registration statement arises. INVESTING IN THE EXCHANGE NOTES INVOLVES CERTAIN RISKS. PLEASE READ "RISK FACTORS" BEGINNING ON PAGE 9 OF THIS PROSPECTUS. This prospectus and the letter of transmittal are first being mailed to all holders of the original notes on , 2003. --------------------- NEITHER THE SEC NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED OF THE EXCHANGE NOTES OR DETERMINED IF THIS PROSPECTUS IS TRUTHFUL OR COMPLETE.

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY This summary may not contain all the information that may be important to you. You should read the entire prospectus, including the additional documents to which we refer you, before making an investment decision. See "Where You Can Find More Information." In this prospectus, unless otherwise noted, "we," "our," "us," and "Amkor" refer to Amkor Technology, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC. We are the world's largest subcontractor of semiconductor packaging and test services. We were incorporated in Delaware in 1997. The company has built a leading position by: - Providing a broad portfolio of packaging and test technologies and services; - Maintaining a leading role in the design and development of new package and test technologies; - Cultivating long-standing relationships with customers, including many of the world's leading semiconductor companies; - Developing expertise in high-volume manufacturing; and - Diversifying our operational scope by establishing production capabilities in China, Japan and Taiwan, in addition to long-standing capabilities in Korea and the Philippines. The semiconductors that we package and test for our customers ultimately become components in electric systems used in communications, computing, consumer, industrial, automotive and military applications. Our customers include, among others, Agilent Technologies, Atmel Corporation, Intel Corporation, LSI Logic Corporation, Mediatek Inc., Philips Electronics N.V., R.F. Microdevices, ST Microelectronics PTE, Sony Semiconductor Corporation and Toshiba Corporation. The outsourced semiconductor packaging and test market is very competitive. We also compete with the internal semiconductor packaging and test capabilities of many of our customers. Packaging and test are an integral part of the semiconductor manufacturing process. Semiconductor manufacturing begins with silicon wafers and involves the fabrication of electronic circuitry into complex patterns, thus creating individual chips on the wafers. The packaging process creates an electrical interconnect between the semiconductor chip and the system board. In packaging, the fabricated semiconductor wafers are cut into individual chips which are then attached to a substrate and encased in a protective material to provide optimal electrical and thermal performance. Increasingly, packages are custom designed for specific chips and specific end-market applications. The packaged chips are then tested using sophisticated equipment to ensure that each packaged chip meets its design specifications. We historically marketed the output of fabricated semiconductor wafers provided by a wafer fabrication foundry owned and operated by Anam Semiconductor, Inc. (ASI). On February 28, 2003, we sold our wafer fabrication services business to ASIand restated our historical results to reflect our wafer fabrication services segment as a discontinued operation. 3

SUMMARY OF THE EXCHANGE OFFER In May 2003, we completed a private offering of the original notes. We received aggregate net proceeds, before expenses and commissions, of $425 million from the sale of the original notes. In connection with the offering of original notes, we entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the initial purchasers of the original notes in which we agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver to you this prospectus and to commence the exchange offer for the original notes within 210 days of their issuance. In the exchange offer, you are entitled to exchange your original notes for exchange notes, with substantially identical terms as the original notes. The exchange notes will be accepted for clearance through The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") and Clearstream Banking SA ("Clearstream") or Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear System ("Euroclear"), with a new CUSIP and ISIN number and common code. You should read the discussion under the heading "Description of the Notes" beginning on page for more information about the exchange notes. After the exchange offer is completed, you will no longer be entitled to any exchange or, with limited exceptions, registration rights for your original notes. The Exchange Offer............ We are offering to exchange up to $425 million principal amount of the exchange notes for up to $425 million principal amount of the original notes. Original notes may only be exchanged in $1,000 increments. The terms of the exchange notes are identical in all material respects to those of the original notes except the exchange notes will not be subject to transfer restrictions and holders of the exchange notes, with limited exceptions, will have no registration rights. Also, the exchange notes will not include provisions contained in the original notes that required payment of liquidated damages in the event we failed to satisfy our registration obligations with respect to the original notes. Original notes that are not tendered for exchange will continue to be subject to transfer restrictions and, with limited exceptions, will not have registration rights. Therefore, the market for secondary resales of original notes that are not tendered for exchange is likely to be minimal. We will issue registered exchange notes on or promptly after the expiration of the exchange offer. Expiration Date............... The exchange offer will expire at 5:00 p.m. New York City time, on , 2003, unless we decide to extend the expiration date. Please read "The Exchange Offer -- Extensions, Delay in Acceptance, Termination or Amendment" on page 15 for more information about extending the expiration date. Withdrawal of Tenders......... You may withdraw your tender of original notes at any time prior to the expiration date. We will return to you, without charge, promptly after the expiration or termination of the exchange offer any original notes that you tendered but that were not accepted for exchange. Conditions to the Exchange Offer......................... We will not be required to accept original notes for exchange: - if the exchange offer would be unlawful or would violate any interpretation of the SEC staff, or - if any legal action has been instituted or threatened that would impair our ability to proceed with the exchange offer. 4

The exchange offer is not conditioned on any minimum aggregate principal amount of original notes being tendered. Please read "The Exchange Offer -- Conditions to the Exchange Offer" on page 16 for more information about the conditions to the exchange offer. Procedures for Tendering Original Notes................ If your original notes are held through DTC and you wish to participate in the exchange offer, you may do so through DTC's automated tender offer program. If you tender under this program, you will agree to be bound by the letter of transmittal that we are providing with this prospectus as though you had signed the letter of transmittal. By signing or agreeing to be bound by the letter of transmittal, you will represent to us that, among other things: - any exchange notes that you receive will be acquired in the ordinary course of your business, - you have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the original notes or the exchange notes, - you are not our "affiliate," as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, or, if you are our affiliate, you will comply with any applicable registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, - if you are not a broker-dealer, you are not engaged in and do not intend to engage in the distribution of the exchange notes, and - if you are a broker-dealer that will receive exchange notes for your own account in exchange for original notes that you acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, you will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes. Special Procedures for Beneficial Owner.............. If you own a beneficial interest in original notes that are registered in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee and you wish to tender the original notes in the exchange offer, please contact the registered holder as soon as possible and instruct the registered holder to tender on your behalf and to comply with our instructions described in this prospectus. Guaranteed Delivery Procedures.................... You must tender your original notes according to the guaranteed delivery procedures described in "The Exchange Offer -- Guaranteed Delivery Procedures" on page 19 if any of the following apply: - you wish to tender your original notes but they are not immediately available, - you cannot deliver your original notes, the letter of transmittal or any other required documents to the exchange agent prior to the expiration date, or - you cannot comply with the applicable procedures under DTC's automated tender offer program prior to the expiration date. 5

Resales....................... Except as indicated herein, we believe that the exchange notes may be offered for resale, resold and otherwise transferred without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, provided that: - you are acquiring the exchange notes in the ordinary course of your business; - you are not participating, do not intend to participate and have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the exchange notes; and - you are not an affiliate of Amkor. Our belief is based on existing interpretations of the Securities Act by the SEC staff set forth in several no-action letters to third parties. We do not intend to seek our own no-action letter, and there is no assurance that the SEC staff would make a similar determination with respect to the exchange notes. If this interpretation is inapplicable, and you transfer any exchange note without delivering a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act or without an exemption from such requirements, you may incur liability under the Securities Act. We do not assume, or indemnify holders against, such liability. Each broker-dealer that is issued exchange notes for its own account in exchange for original notes that were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of the exchange notes. To the extent described in "Plan of Distribution" beginning on page 61, a broker-dealer may use this prospectus for an offer to resell, resale or other retransfer of the exchange notes. United States Federal Income Tax Considerations............ The exchange of original notes for exchange notes will not be a taxable exchange for United States federal income tax purposes. Please read "United States Federal Income Tax Considerations" on page . Use of Proceeds............... We will not receive any proceeds from the issuance of the exchange notes pursuant to the exchange offer. Except as described in "The Exchange Offer -- Transfer Taxes," we will pay certain expenses incident to the exchange offer. Registration Rights........... If we fail to complete the exchange offer as required by the Registration Rights Agreement, we may be obligated to pay additional interest to holders of the original notes. Please read "Description of the Notes -- Registration Rights; Liquidated Damages" beginning on page 39 for more information regarding your rights as a holder of the original notes. 6

Please direct questions and requests for assistance, requests for additional copies of this prospectus or of the letter of transmittal and requests for the notice of guaranteed delivery to the exchange agent. If you are not tendering under DTC's automated tender offer program, you should send the letter of transmittal and any other required documents to the exchange agent as follows: U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION

THE EXCHANGE NOTES The form and terms of the exchange notes to be issued in the exchange offer are the same as the form and terms of the original notes, except that the exchange notes will be registered under the Securities Act and, therefore, will not bear legends restricting their transfer, will not contain terms providing for liquidated damages if we fail to perform our registration obligations with respect to the original notes and, with limited exceptions, will not be entitled to registration rights under the Securities Act. The exchange notes will evidence the same debt as the original notes, and both the original notes and the exchange notes are governed by the same Indenture. Issuer........................ Amkor Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation. Notes Offered................. $425 million aggregate principal amount of 7.75% exchange notes due 2013. Maturity...................... May 15, 2013. Interest Payment Dates........ May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on November 15, 2003. Ranking....................... The exchange notes will be our unsecured senior debt: - the exchange notes will be effectively subordinated to all our existing and future secured debt, including debt under the new senior secured credit facility, to the extent of such security, and to all existing and future debt and other liabilities of our subsidiaries, including trade payables; - the exchange notes will rank equally with all our existing and future unsecured senior debt including our 9.25% senior notes due 2008; and - the exchange notes will rank senior to all our existing and future debt that expressly provides that it is subordinated to the exchange notes, including our 10.50% senior subordinated notes due 2009, our 5.75% convertible subordinated notes due 2006 and our 5.00% convertible subordinated notes due 2007. 7

Assuming we had completed the May 2003 note offering to which this exchange offer relates, redeemed our 9.25% senior notes due 2006, closed our new senior secured credit facility and repaid the Term B loan under our previous senior secured credit facility with the proceeds of the new senior secured credit facility, as if each had occurred as of March 31, 2003, the exchange notes would have been: - effectively subordinated to $170 million of senior secured debt and $272.6 million of indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries, including trade payables but excluding intercompany obligations; - ranked equally with $500 million of our 9.25% senior notes due 2008; and - senior to $708.8 million of subordinated debt, including our 10.50% senior subordinated notes due 2009, our 5.75% convertible subordinated notes due 2006 and our 5.00% convertible subordinated notes due 2007. Redemption.................... We may redeem the exchange notes issued under the Indenture (as defined below), in whole or in part, beginning on May 15, 2008, at the redemption prices specified in this prospectus under "Description of the Notes -- Optional Redemption." Change in Control............. If we experience a change in control, we will be required to make an offer to repurchase the exchange notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase. For more detailed information, see "Description of the Notes -- Repurchase at the Option of Holder -- Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control." Covenants..................... We will issue the exchange notes under an indenture (the "Indenture") with U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee. The Indenture will, among other things, restrict our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to: - incur additional indebtedness; - pay dividends, repurchase stock, prepay subordinated debt and make investments and other restricted payments; - create restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments; - engage in sale and leaseback transactions; - create liens; - enter into transactions with affiliates; and - sell assets or merge with or into other companies. These covenants are subject to important exceptions that are described in the section entitled "Description of the Notes -- Certain Covenants." 8

RISK FACTORS You should carefully consider each of the following risks and uncertainties associated with our company and the exchange offer, as well as all the other information set forth in this prospectus or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, including the information set forth in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on May 9, 2003, under the heading "Risk Factors that May Affect Future Operating Performance," which is specifically incorporated herein by reference. RISKS RELATING TO THE EXCHANGE OFFER BECAUSE THERE IS NO PUBLIC MARKET FOR THE EXCHANGE NOTES, YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SELL YOUR EXCHANGE NOTES The exchange notes will be registered under the Securities Act, but will constitute a new issue of securities with no established trading market, and there can be no assurance as to: - the liquidity of any trading market that may develop; - the ability of holders to sell their exchange notes; or - the price at which the holders would be able to sell their exchange notes. If a trading market were to develop, the exchange notes might trade at higher or lower prices than their principal amount or purchase price, depending on many factors, including prevailing interest rates, the market for similar securities and our financial performance. Any market-making activity in the exchange notes will be subject to the limits imposed by the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. There can be no assurance that an active trading market will exist for the exchange notes or that any trading market that does develop will be liquid. In addition, any original note holder who tenders in the exchange offer for the purpose of participating in a distribution of the exchange notes may be deemed to have received restricted securities and, if so, will be required to comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale transaction. YOUR ORIGINAL NOTES WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED FOR EXCHANGE IF YOU FAIL TO FOLLOW THE EXCHANGE OFFER PROCEDURES We will issue exchange notes pursuant to the exchange offer only after a timely receipt of your original notes, a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal and all other required documents. Therefore, if you want to tender your original notes, please allow sufficient time to ensure timely delivery. If we do not receive your original notes, letter of transmittal and other required documents by the expiration date of the exchange offer, we will not accept your original notes for exchange. We are under no duty to give notification of defects or irregularities with respect to the tenders of original notes for exchange. If there are defects or irregularities with respect to your tender of original notes, we will not accept your original notes for exchange. IF YOU DO NOT EXCHANGE YOUR ORIGINAL NOTES, YOUR ORIGINAL NOTES WILL CONTINUE TO BE SUBJECT TO THE EXISTING TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS AND YOU MAY BE UNABLE TO SELL YOUR OUTSTANDING ORIGINAL NOTES We did not register the original notes, nor do we intend to do so following the exchange offer. Original notes that are not tendered will therefore continue to be subject to the existing transfer restrictions and may be transferred only in limited circumstances under applicable securities laws. If you do not exchange your original notes, you will lose your right to have your original notes registered under the federal securities laws. As a result, if you hold original notes after the exchange offer, you may be unable to sell your original notes. We have no obligation, except in limited circumstances, nor do we currently intend, to file an additional registration statement to cover the resale of original notes that did not tender in the exchange offer or to re- offer to exchange the exchange notes for original notes following the expiration of the exchange offer. 9

RISKS RELATED TO AN INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS APPLY TO BOTH THE ORIGINAL NOTES AND THE EXCHANGE NOTES. HIGH LEVERAGE AND RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS -- OUR SUBSTANTIAL INDEBTEDNESS COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION AND PREVENT US FROM FULFILLING OUR OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE NOTES Substantial Leverage. We now have, and after this offering will continue to have, a significant amount of indebtedness. In addition, despite current debt levels, the terms of the indentures governing the notes and our other securities do not prohibit us or our subsidiaries from incurring substantially more debt. If new debt is added to our consolidated debt level, the related risks that we now face could intensify. The following table shows certain important financial data and credit ratios (assuming we had completed the May 2003 note offering to which this exchange offer relates, redeemed our 9.25% senior notes due 2006, closed our new senior secured credit facility and repaid the Term B loan under our previous senior secured credit facility with the proceeds of the new senior secured credit facility, as if each had occurred as of March 31, 2003):

AT MARCH 31, 2003 ----------------- (IN THOUSANDS) Total debt, including current maturities.................... $1,873,378 Stockholders' equity(1)..................................... 209,214 Ratio of total debt to stockholders' equity................. 8.95x
- --------------- (1) We adjusted stockholders' equity of $240.8 million at March 31, 2003 by $31.6 million to reflect the 4.625% premium paid in connection with, and additional interest accruing prior to, the redemption of our 9.25% senior notes due 2006 and write-offs of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs associated with such notes and our previous senior secured credit facility. Covenants in the agreements governing our existing debt, and debt we may incur in the future, may materially restrict our operations, including our ability to incur debt, pay dividends, make certain investments and payments, and encumber or dispose of assets. In addition, financial covenants contained in agreements relating to our existing and future debt could lead to a default in the event our results of operations do not meet our plans. A default under one debt instrument may also trigger cross-defaults under our other debt instruments. An event of default under any debt instrument, if not cured or waived, could have a material adverse effect on us. Our substantial indebtedness could have important consequences to holders of the notes. For example, it could: - make it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to the notes; - increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions; - limit our ability to fund future working capital, capital expenditures, research and development and other general corporate requirements; - require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to service payments on our debt; - limit our flexibility to react to changes in our business and the industry in which we operate; - place us at a competitive disadvantage to any of our competitors that have less debt; and - limit, along with the financial and other restrictive covenants in our indebtedness, among other things, our ability to borrow additional funds. Ability to Service Debt. We cannot assure you that our business will generate cash in an amount sufficient to enable us to service our debt, including the notes, or to fund our other liquidity needs. We expect that substantial amounts of our debt will come due prior to the final maturity date of the notes, which we will be required to repay or refinance. Our 5.75% convertible subordinated note due 2006, our 5% convertible subordinated notes due 2007, our 9.25% senior note due 2008 and our 10.5% convertible subordinated notes 10

due 2009 and amounts outstanding under our new senior secured credit facility will mature prior to the 2013 maturity date of the notes and will be payable in cash unless the holders of the convertible notes elect to convert the principal amount of such notes into our common stock. In addition, we may need to refinance all or a portion of our debt, including the notes, on or before maturity. In June 2003 we repurchased our 9.25% senior notes due 2006 using the proceeds of the May 2003 note offering to which this exchange offer relates. We cannot assure you that we will be able to refinance any of our debt on commercially reasonable terms or at all. EFFECTIVE SUBORDINATION OF THE NOTES TO LIABILITIES OF OUR SUBSIDIARIES -- YOUR RIGHT TO RECEIVE PAYMENTS ON THE NOTES FROM FUNDS PROVIDED BY OUR SUBSIDIARIES IS JUNIOR IN RIGHT OF PAYMENT TO THE CLAIMS OF THE CREDITORS OF OUR SUBSIDIARIES We conduct a large portion of our operations through our subsidiaries. Accordingly, our ability to meet our cash obligations is dependent upon the ability of our subsidiaries to make cash payments to us. We expect distributions from our subsidiaries to be a large source of funds for payment of interest on the notes. The claims of creditors (including trade creditors) of any subsidiary will generally have priority as to the assets of such subsidiary over the claims of the holders of the notes. In the event of a liquidation of any of our subsidiaries, our right to receive the assets of any such subsidiary (and the resulting right of the holders of the notes to participate in the distribution of the proceeds of those assets) will effectively be subordinated by operation of law to the claims of creditors (including trade creditors) of such subsidiary and holders of such subsidiary's preferred stock and any guarantees by such subsidiary of our indebtedness. In the event of the liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding or any assignment for the benefit of our creditors or a marshaling of our assets or liabilities, holders of the notes may receive ratably less than other such creditors or interest holders. Assuming we had completed the May 2003 note offering to which this exchange offer relates, redeemed our 9.25% senior notes due 2006, closed the new senior secured credit facility and repaid the Term B loan under our previous senior secured credit facility with the proceeds of the new senior credit facility, as if each had occurred as of March 31, 2003, the notes would have been effectively subordinated to $272.6 million of indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries, including trade payables but excluding intercompany obligations. FINANCING CHANGE OF CONTROL OFFER -- WE MAY NOT HAVE, OR BE ABLE TO RAISE, THE FUNDS NECESSARY TO FINANCE AN OFFER TO REPURCHASE THE NOTES FOLLOWING A CHANGE OF CONTROL OR WE MAY BE PROHIBITED FROM DOING SO BY OUR SECURED CREDIT FACILITIES. Upon the occurrence of a change of control, we must offer to repurchase all outstanding notes. However, it is possible that we will not have sufficient funds at the time of the change of control to make the required repurchases of notes or that restrictions in our credit facilities or other debt agreements may not allow such repurchases. DIFFICULTIES IN ENFORCING JUDGMENTS IN FOREIGN JURISDICTIONS Since a large portion of our assets are located outside the U.S., any judgments obtained in the U.S. against us, including judgments with respect to the payment of principal, premium, interest, offer price, or other amounts payable with respect to the notes may be not collectible within the U.S. If holders of notes intend to enforce a judgment obtained in the U.S. against our assets located outside the U.S., they may be subject to additional procedures and other difficulties which would not be required for enforcement of such judgment in the U.S. PRIVATE PLACEMENT We issued $425 million in principal amount of the original notes dated as of May 8, 2003 to the initial purchasers of those notes and received proceeds that after deducting expenses and commissions represented an aggregate of $416.2 million in net proceeds. We issued the original notes to the initial purchasers in a transaction exempt from or not subject to registration under the Securities Act. The initial purchasers then 11

offered and resold the original notes to qualified institutional buyers in compliance with Rule 144A or non-U.S. persons in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. USE OF PROCEEDS We are making the exchange offer to satisfy our obligations under the original notes, the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement. We will not receive any cash proceeds from the exchange offer. In consideration of issuing the exchange notes in the exchange offer, we will receive an equal principal amount of original notes. Any original notes that are properly tendered and accepted in the exchange offer will be canceled and retired and cannot be reissued. RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES The following table sets forth our ratio of earnings to fixed charges for the periods indicated.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, THREE MONTHS ENDED -------------------------------- MARCH 31, 2003 2002 2001 2000 1999 1998 ------------------ ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- Ratio........................... --x(1) --x(1) --x(1) 2.2x 2.3x 4.1x
- --------------- (1) The ratio of earnings to fixed charges was less than 1:1 for the three months ended March 31, 2003. In order to achieve a ratio of earnings to fixed charges of 1:1, we would have had to generate an additional $40.7 million of earnings in the three months ended March 31, 2003. The ratio of earnings to fixed charges was less than 1:1 for the year ended December 31, 2002. In order to achieve a ratio of earnings to fixed charges of 1:1, we would have had to generate an additional $564.3 million of earnings in the year ended December 31, 2002. The ratio of earnings to fixed charges was less than 1:1 for the year ended December 31, 2001. In order to achieve a ratio of earnings to fixed charges of 1:1, we would have had to generate an additional $438.5 million of earnings in the year ended December 31, 2001. 12

CAPITALIZATION The following table sets forth our cash and cash equivalents and total capitalization as of March 31, 2003 (1) on a historical basis and (2) as adjusted to give effect to this offering, the redemption of our 9.25% senior notes due 2006, the closing of the new senior secured credit facility and the repayment of the Term B loan under our previous senior secured credit facility with the proceeds of the new senior secured credit facility, as if each had occurred as of March 31, 2003. You should read the as adjusted capitalization data set forth in the table below in conjunction with "Use of Proceeds," "Selected Consolidated Financial Data," "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," and our consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement.

- --------------- (1) We adjusted stockholders' equity of $240.8 million at March 31, 2003 by $31.6 million to reflect the 4.625% premium to be paid in connection with, and additional interest accruing prior to, the redemption of our 9.25% senior notes due 2006 and write-offs of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs associated with such notes and our previous senior secured credit facility. 13

THE EXCHANGE OFFER PURPOSE OF THE EXCHANGE OFFER In connection with the sale of the original notes, we entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the initial purchasers of the original notes. In that agreement, we agreed to file a registration statement relating to an offer to exchange the original notes for the exchange notes. We also agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to have the SEC declare that registration statement effective by December 5, 2003. We are offering the exchange notes under this prospectus in an exchange offer for the original notes to satisfy our obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement. We refer to our offer to exchange the exchange notes for the original notes as the "exchange offer." RESALE OF EXCHANGE NOTES Based on interpretations of the SEC staff in no-action letters issued to third parties, we believe that each exchange note issued in the exchange offer may be offered for resale, resold and otherwise transferred by you without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act if: - you are not our affiliate within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act, - you acquire such exchange notes in the ordinary course of your business, - you do not intend to participate in the distribution of exchange notes, and - you are not a broker-dealer that will receive exchange notes for your own account in exchange for original notes that you acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. If you tender your original notes in the exchange offer with the intention of participating in any manner in a distribution of the exchange notes, you: - cannot rely on such interpretations of the SEC staff, and - must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with a secondary resale transaction of the exchange notes. Unless an exemption from registration is otherwise available, the resale by any security holder intending to distribute exchange notes should be covered by an effective registration statement under the Securities Act containing the selling security holder's information required by Item 507 or Item 508, as applicable, of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act. This prospectus may be used for an offer to resell, a resale or other retransfer of exchange notes only as specifically described in this prospectus. Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account in exchange for original notes, where that broker-dealer acquired such original notes as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes. Please read "Plan of Distribution" for more details regarding the transfer of exchange notes. TERMS OF THE EXCHANGE OFFER Upon the terms and subject to the conditions described in this prospectus and in the letter of transmittal, we will accept for exchange any original notes properly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the expiration date of the exchange offer. We will issue $1,000 principal amount of exchange notes in exchange for each $1,000 principal amount of original notes surrendered under the exchange offer and accepted by us. Original notes may be tendered only in integral multiples of $1,000. The exchange offer is not conditioned on any minimum aggregate principal amount of original notes being tendered for exchange. As of the date of this prospectus, $425 million principal amount of original notes are outstanding. This prospectus and the letter of transmittal are being sent to all registered holders of the original notes. There will 14

be no fixed record date for determining registered holders of the original notes entitled to participate in the exchange offer. We intend to conduct the exchange offer in accordance with the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement, the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and the SEC rules and regulations. Original notes that are not tendered for exchange in the exchange offer: - will remain outstanding, - will continue to accrue interest, and - will be entitled to the rights and benefits that holders have under the Indenture relating to the notes and, under limited circumstances, the Registration Rights Agreement. We will be deemed to have accepted for exchange properly tendered original notes when we have given oral or written notice of the acceptance to the exchange agent and complied with the applicable provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement. The exchange agent will act as agent for the tendering holders for the purposes of receiving the exchange notes from us. If you tender original notes in the exchange offer, you will not be required to pay brokerage commissions or fees or, subject to the instructions in the letter of transmittal, transfer taxes with respect to the exchange of original notes. We will pay all charges and expenses, other than certain applicable taxes described below, in connection with the exchange offer. It is important that you read "The Exchange Offer -- Fees and Expenses" for more details about fees and expenses incurred in the exchange offer. We will return any original notes that we do not accept for exchange for any reason without expense to the tendering holder as promptly as practicable after the expiration or termination of the exchange offer. EXPIRATION DATE The exchange offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003, unless at our sole discretion we extend the offer. EXTENSIONS, DELAY IN ACCEPTANCE, TERMINATION OR AMENDMENT We expressly reserve the right, at any time or at various times, to extend the period of time during which the exchange offer is open. We may delay acceptance for exchange of any original notes by giving oral or written notice of the extension to their holders. During any such extensions, all original notes you have previously tendered will remain subject to the exchange offer for that series, and we may accept them for exchange. To extend the exchange offer, we will notify the exchange agent orally or in writing of any extension. We also will make a public announcement of the extension no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled expiration date. If any of the conditions described below under "The Exchange Offer -- Conditions to the Exchange Offer" have not been satisfied with respect to the exchange offer, we reserve the right, at our sole discretion: - to extend the exchange offer, - to delay accepting for exchange any original notes, or - to terminate the exchange offer. We will give oral or written notice of such extension, delay or termination to the exchange agent. Subject to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, we also reserve the right to amend the terms of the exchange offer in any manner. Any such extension, delay in acceptance, termination or amendment will be followed as promptly as practicable by oral or written notice thereof to the registered holders of the original notes. If we amend the exchange offer in a manner that we determine to constitute a material change, we will promptly disclose that 15

amendment by means of a prospectus supplement. We will distribute the supplement to the registered holders of the original notes. Depending on the significance of the amendment and the manner of disclosure to the registered holders, we will extend the exchange offer if the exchange offer would otherwise expire during such period. Without limiting the manner in which we may choose to make public announcements of any extension, delay in acceptance, termination or amendment of the exchange offer, we have no obligation to publish, advertise or otherwise communicate any such public announcement, other than by making a timely release to an appropriate news agency. CONDITIONS TO THE EXCHANGE OFFER Despite any other term of the exchange offer, we will not be required to accept for exchange, or exchange any exchange notes for any original notes, and we may terminate the exchange offer as provided in this prospectus before accepting any original notes for exchange, if in our reasonable judgment: - the exchange offer, or the making of any exchange by a holder of the original notes, would violate applicable law or any applicable interpretation of the SEC staff, or - any action or proceeding has been instituted or threatened in any court or by or before any governmental agency with respect to the exchange offer that, in our judgment, would reasonably be expected to impair our ability to proceed with the exchange offer. In addition, we will not be obligated to accept for exchange the original notes of any holder that has not made to us: - the representations described under "The Exchange Offer -- Procedures for Tendering" and "Plan of Distribution," and - such other representations as may be reasonably necessary under applicable SEC rules, regulations or interpretations to make available to us an appropriate form for registering the exchange notes under the Securities Act. We expressly reserve the right to amend or terminate the exchange offer, and to reject for exchange any original notes not previously accepted for exchange in the exchange offer, upon the occurrence of any of the conditions to the exchange offer specified above. We will give oral or written notice of any extension, non-acceptance, termination or amendment to the holders of the original notes as promptly as practicable. These conditions are for our sole benefit, and we may assert them or waive them in whole or in part at any time or at various times at our sole discretion. Our failure at any time to exercise any of these rights will not mean that we have waived our rights. Each right will be deemed an ongoing right that we may assert at any time or at various times. In addition, we will not accept for exchange any original notes tendered, and will not issue exchange notes in exchange for any such original notes, if at such time any stop order has been threatened or is in effect with respect to the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part or the qualification of the Indenture relating to the notes under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939. PROCEDURES FOR TENDERING HOW TO TENDER GENERALLY Only a holder of the original notes may tender such original notes in the exchange offer. To tender in the exchange offer, a holder must either (1) comply with the procedures for physical tender or (2) comply with the automated tender offer program procedures of The Depository Trust Company, or "DTC," described below. 16

To complete a physical tender, a holder must: - complete, sign and date the letter of transmittal or a facsimile of the letter of transmittal, - have the signature on the letter of transmittal guaranteed if the letter of transmittal so requires, - mail or deliver the letter of transmittal or facsimile to the exchange agent prior to the expiration date, and - deliver the original notes to the exchange agent prior to the expiration date or comply with the guaranteed delivery procedures described below. To be tendered effectively, the exchange agent must receive any physical delivery of the letter of transmittal and other required documents at its address provided above under "The Exchange Agent" prior to the expiration date. To complete a tender through DTC's automated tender offer program, the exchange agent must receive, prior to the expiration date, a timely confirmation of book-entry transfer of such original notes into the exchange agent's account at DTC according to the procedure for book-entry transfer described below or a properly transmitted agent's message. The tender by a holder that is not withdrawn prior to the expiration date and our acceptance of that tender will constitute an agreement between the holder and us in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions described in this prospectus and in the letter of transmittal. THE METHOD OF DELIVERY OF ORIGINAL NOTES, THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND ALL OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS TO THE EXCHANGE AGENT IS AT YOUR ELECTION AND RISK. RATHER THAN MAIL THESE ITEMS, WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU USE AN OVERNIGHT OR HAND DELIVERY SERVICE. IN ALL CASES, YOU SHOULD ALLOW SUFFICIENT TIME TO ENSURE DELIVERY TO THE EXCHANGE AGENT BEFORE THE EXPIRATION DATE. YOU SHOULD NOT SEND THE LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL OR ORIGINAL NOTES TO US. YOU MAY REQUEST YOUR BROKER, DEALER, COMMERCIAL BANK, TRUST COMPANY OR OTHER NOMINEE TO EFFECT THE ABOVE TRANSACTIONS FOR YOU. HOW TO TENDER IF YOU ARE A BENEFICIAL OWNER If you beneficially own original notes that are registered in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee and you wish to tender those notes, you should contact the registered holder as soon as possible and instruct the registered holder to tender on your behalf. If you are a beneficial owner and wish to tender on your own behalf, you must, prior to completing and executing the letter of transmittal and delivering your original notes, either: - make appropriate arrangements to register ownership of the original notes in your name, or - obtain a properly completed bond power from the registered holder of your original notes. The transfer of registered ownership may take considerable time and may not be completed prior to the expiration date. SIGNATURES AND SIGNATURE GUARANTEES You must have signatures on a letter of transmittal or a notice of withdrawal described below under "The Exchange Offer -- Withdrawal of Tenders" guaranteed by an eligible institution unless the original notes are tendered: - by a registered holder who has not completed the box entitled "Special Issuance Instructions" or "Special Delivery Instructions" on the letter of transmittal, or - for the account of an eligible institution. 17

An "eligible institution" is a member firm of a registered national securities exchange or of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., a commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the United States, or an eligible guarantor institution within the meaning of Rule 17Ad-15 under the Exchange Act, that is a member of one of the recognized signature guarantee programs identified in the letter of transmittal. WHEN ENDORSEMENTS OR BOND POWERS ARE NEEDED If a person other than the registered holder of any original notes signs the letter of transmittal, the original notes must be endorsed or accompanied by a properly completed bond power. The registered holder must sign the bond power as the registered holder's name appears on the original notes. An eligible institution must guarantee that signature. If the letter of transmittal or any original notes or bond powers are signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, or officers of corporations or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, those persons should so indicate when signing. Unless we waive this requirement, they also must submit evidence satisfactory to us of their authority to deliver the letter of transmittal. TENDERING THROUGH DTC'S AUTOMATED TENDER OFFER PROGRAM The exchange agent and DTC have confirmed that any financial institution that is a participant in DTC's system may use DTC's automated tender offer program to tender. Accordingly, participants in the program may, instead of physically completing and signing the letter of transmittal and delivering it to the exchange agent, transmit their acceptance of the exchange offer electronically. They may do so by causing DTC to transfer the original notes to the exchange agent in accordance with its procedures for transfer. DTC will then send an agent's message to the exchange agent. An agent's message is a message transmitted by DTC to and received by the exchange agent and forming part of the book-entry confirmation, stating that: - DTC has received an express acknowledgment from a participant in DTC's automated tender offer program that is tendering original notes that are the subject of such book-entry confirmation, - the participant has received and agrees to be bound by the terms of the letter of transmittal, or, in the case of an agent's message relating to guaranteed delivery, the participant has received and agrees to be bound by the applicable notice of guaranteed delivery, and - we may enforce the agreement against such participant. DETERMINATIONS UNDER THE EXCHANGE OFFER We will determine at our sole discretion all questions as to the validity, form, eligibility, time of receipt, acceptance of tendered original notes and withdrawal of tendered original notes. Our determination will be final and binding. We reserve the absolute right to reject any original notes not properly tendered or any original notes our acceptance of which, in the opinion of our counsel, might be unlawful. We also reserve the right to waive any defects, irregularities or conditions of the exchange offer as to particular original notes. Our interpretation of the terms and conditions of the exchange offer, including the instructions in the letter of transmittal, will be final and binding on all parties. Unless waived, any defects or irregularities in connection with tenders of original notes must be cured within such time as we determine. Neither we, the exchange agent nor any other person will be under any duty to give notification of defects or irregularities with respect to tenders of original notes, nor will we or those persons incur any liability for failure to give such notification. Tenders of original notes will not be deemed made until such defects or irregularities have been cured or waived. Any original notes received by the exchange agent that are not properly tendered and as to which the defects or irregularities have not been cured or waived will be returned to the tendering holder, unless otherwise provided in the letter of transmittal, as soon as practicable following the expiration date. 18

WHEN WE WILL ISSUE EXCHANGE NOTES In all cases, we will issue exchange notes for original notes that we have accepted for exchange in the exchange offer only after the exchange agent timely receives: - original notes or a timely book-entry confirmation of transfer of such original notes into the exchange agent's account at DTC, and - a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal and all other required documents or a properly transmitted agent's message. RETURN OF ORIGINAL NOTES NOT ACCEPTED OR EXCHANGED If we do not accept any tendered original notes for exchange for any reason described in the terms and conditions of the exchange offer or if original notes are submitted for a greater principal amount than the holder desires to exchange, we will return the unaccepted or non-exchanged original notes without expense to their tendering holder. In the case of original notes tendered by book-entry transfer into the exchange agent's account at DTC according to the procedures described below, such non-exchanged original notes will be credited to an account maintained with DTC. These actions will occur as promptly as practicable after the expiration or termination of the exchange offer. YOUR REPRESENTATIONS TO US By signing or agreeing to be bound by the letter of transmittal, you will represent to us that, among other things: - any exchange notes you receive will be acquired in the ordinary course of your business, - you have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the original notes or the exchange notes within the meaning of the Securities Act, - you are not our affiliate, as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, or, if you are our affiliate, you will comply with the applicable registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, - if you are not a broker-dealer, you are not engaged in and do not intend to engage in the distribution of the exchange notes, and - if you are a broker-dealer that will receive exchange notes for your own account in exchange for original notes that you acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, you will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes. BOOK-ENTRY TRANSFER The exchange agent will make a request to establish an account with respect to the original notes at DTC for purposes of the exchange offer promptly after the date of this prospectus. Any financial institution participating in DTC's system may make book-entry delivery of original notes by causing DTC to transfer such original notes into the exchange agent's account at DTC in accordance with DTC's procedures for transfer. If you are unable to deliver confirmation of the book-entry tender of your original notes into the exchange agent's account at DTC or all other documents required by the letter of transmittal to the exchange agent on or prior to the expiration date, you must tender your original notes according to the guaranteed delivery procedures described below. GUARANTEED DELIVERY PROCEDURES If you wish to tender your original notes but they are not immediately available or if you cannot deliver your original notes, the letter of transmittal or any other required documents to the exchange agent or comply with the applicable procedures under DTC's automated tender offer program prior to the expiration date, you may tender if: - the tender is made through a member firm of a registered national securities exchange or of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., a commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the United States, or an eligible guarantor institution, 19

- prior to the expiration date, the exchange agent receives from such member firm of a registered national securities exchange or of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the United States, or eligible guarantor institution either a properly completed and duly executed notice of guaranteed delivery by facsimile transmission, mail or hand delivery or a properly transmitted agent's message and notice of guaranteed delivery: - stating your name and address, the registered number(s) of your original notes and the principal amount of original notes tendered, - stating that the tender is being made thereby, and - guaranteeing that, within three Nasdaq trading days after the expiration date, the letter of transmittal or facsimile thereof or agent's message in lieu thereof, together with the original notes or a book-entry confirmation, and any other documents required by the letter of transmittal will be deposited by the eligible guarantor institution with the exchange agent, - the exchange agent receives such properly completed and executed letter of transmittal or facsimile or agent's message, as well as all tendered original notes in proper form for transfer or a book-entry confirmation, and all other documents required by the letter of transmittal, within three Nasdaq trading days after the expiration date. Upon request to the exchange agent, the exchange agent will send a notice of guaranteed delivery to you if you wish to tender your original notes according to the guaranteed delivery procedures described above. WITHDRAWAL OF TENDERS Except as otherwise provided in this prospectus, you may withdraw your tender at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date. For a withdrawal to be effective: - the exchange agent must receive a written notice of withdrawal at one of the addresses listed above under "The Exchange Agent," or - the withdrawing holder must comply with the appropriate procedures of DTC's automated tender offer program. Any notice of withdrawal must: - specify the name of the person who tendered the original notes to be withdrawn, - identify the original notes to be withdrawn, including the registration number or numbers and the principal amount of such original notes, - be signed by the person who tendered the original notes in the same manner as the original signature on the letter of transmittal used to deposit those original notes or be accompanied by documents of transfer sufficient to permit the Trustee to register the transfer in the name of the person withdrawing the tender, and - specify the name in which such original notes are to be registered, if different from that of the person who tendered the original notes. If original notes have been tendered under the procedure for book-entry transfer described above, any notice of withdrawal must specify the name and number of the account at DTC to be credited with the withdrawn original notes and otherwise comply with the procedures of DTC. We will determine all questions as to the validity, form, eligibility and time of receipt of notice of withdrawal, and our determination shall be final and binding on all parties. We will deem any original notes so withdrawn not to have been validly tendered for exchange for purposes of the exchange offer. 20

Any original notes that have been tendered for exchange but that are not exchanged for any reason will be returned to their holder without cost to the holder, or, in the case of original notes tendered by book-entry transfer into the exchange agent's account at DTC according to the procedures described above, such original notes will be credited to an account maintained with DTC for the original notes. This return or crediting will take place as soon as practicable after withdrawal, rejection of tender or termination of the exchange offer. You may retender properly withdrawn original notes by following one of the procedures described under "The Exchange Offer -- Procedures for Tendering" at any time on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the expiration date. FEES AND EXPENSES WE WILL BEAR THE EXPENSES OF SOLICITING TENDERS. THE PRINCIPAL SOLICITATION IS BEING MADE BY MAIL; HOWEVER, WE MAY MAKE ADDITIONAL SOLICITATION BY FACSIMILE, EMAIL, TELEPHONE OR IN PERSON BY OUR OFFICERS AND REGULAR EMPLOYEES AND THOSE OF OUR AFFILIATES. We have not retained any dealer-manager in connection with the exchange offer and will not make any payments to broker-dealers or others soliciting acceptances of the exchange offer. We will, however, pay the exchange agent reasonable and customary fees for its services and reimburse it for its related reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. We may also pay brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in forwarding copies of this prospectus, letters of transmittal and related documents to the beneficial owners of the original notes and in handling or forwarding tenders for exchange. We will pay the cash expenses to be incurred in connection with the exchange offer. They include: - SEC registration fees for the exchange notes, - fees and expenses of the exchange agent and the Trustee, - accounting and legal fees, - printing costs, and - related fees and expenses. TRANSFER TAXES If you tender your original notes for exchange, you will not be required to pay any transfer taxes. We will pay all transfer taxes, if any, applicable to the exchange of original notes in the exchange offer. The tendering holder will, however, be required to pay any transfer taxes, whether imposed on the registered holder or any other person, if: - certificates representing exchange notes or original notes for principal amounts not tendered or accepted for exchange are to be delivered to, or are to be issued in the name of, any person other than the registered holder of the original notes tendered, - tendered original notes are registered in the name of any person other than the person signing the letter of transmittal, or - a transfer tax is imposed for any reason other than the exchange of original notes for exchange notes in the exchange offer. If satisfactory evidence of payment of any transfer taxes payable by a tendering holder is not submitted with the letter of transmittal, the amount of such transfer taxes will be billed directly to that tendering holder. The exchange agent will retain possession of exchange notes with a face amount equal to the amount of the transfer taxes due until it receives payment of the taxes. 21

CONSEQUENCES OF FAILURE TO EXCHANGE If you do not exchange your original notes for exchange notes in the exchange offer, you will remain subject to the existing restrictions on transfer of the original notes. In general, you may not offer or sell the original notes unless either they are registered under the Securities Act or the offer or sale is exempt from or not subject to registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Except as required by the Registration Rights Agreement, we do not intend to register resales of the original notes under the Securities Act. We have no obligation to re-offer to exchange the exchange notes for original notes following the expiration of the exchange offer. The tender of original notes in the exchange offer will reduce the outstanding principal amount of the original notes. Due to the corresponding reduction in liquidity, this may have an adverse effect on, and increase the volatility of, the market price of any original notes that you continue to hold. OTHER Participation in the exchange offer is voluntary, and you should carefully consider whether to accept. You are urged to consult your financial and tax advisors in making your decision on what action to take. In the future, we may seek to acquire untendered original notes in open market or privately negotiated transactions, through subsequent exchange offers or otherwise. We have no present plan to acquire any original notes that are not tendered in the exchange offer or to file a registration statement to permit resales of any untendered original notes, except as required by the Registration Rights Agreement. DESCRIPTION OF THE NOTES You can find the definitions of certain terms used in this description under the caption "-- Certain Definitions." In this description, the word "Amkor" refers only to Amkor Technology, Inc. and not to any of its Subsidiaries and the term "Notes" refers to both the original notes and the exchange notes. Amkor will issue the exchange notes under the Indenture (the "Indenture") between itself and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the "Trustee"). The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939. The following description is a summary of the material provisions of the Indenture. It does not restate that agreement in its entirety. We urge you to read the Indenture because it, and not this description, defines your rights as holders of the Notes. Copies of the Indenture are available as described below under the caption "Available Information." RANKING The Notes are: - general obligations of Amkor; - effectively subordinated in right of payment to existing and future secured debt, if any, including our obligations under our secured bank facilities, to the extent of such security, and to all existing and future debt and other liabilities of our subsidiaries, including trade payables; - equal in right of payment with all our existing and future unsecured senior debt, including our 9.25% senior notes due February 15, 2008; and - senior in right of payment to all our existing and future debt that expressly provides that it is subordinated to the Notes, including our 10.50% senior subordinated notes due 2009, our 5.75% convertible subordinated notes due 2006 and our 5.00% convertible subordinated notes due 2007. The Notes are "Designated Senior Debt" for purposes of the indentures governing our 10.50% senior subordinated notes due 2009, our 5.75% convertible subordinated notes due 2006 and our 5.00% convertible subordinated notes due 2007. 22

Assuming we had completed the May 2003 note offering to which this exchange offer relates, redeemed our 9.25% senior notes due 2006, closed our new senior secured credit facility and repaid the Term B loan under our previous senior secured credit facility with the proceeds of the new senior secured credit facility, as if each occurred as of March 31, 2003, Amkor would have had total senior secured debt of $170 million on that date. In addition, our subsidiaries would have had total liabilities of approximately 272.6 million, including trade payables but excluding intercompany obligations. The Indenture will permit us to incur additional senior secured debt and subsidiary indebtedness. We conduct a large portion of our operations through our Subsidiaries. Accordingly, our ability to meet our cash obligations is dependent upon the ability of our Subsidiaries to make cash payments to us. Payments from our Subsidiaries are expected to be a large source of funds for payment of interest on the Notes. The claims of creditors (including trade creditors) of any Subsidiary will generally have priority as to the assets of such Subsidiary over the claims of the holders of the Notes. In the event of a liquidation of any of our Subsidiaries, our right to receive the assets of any such Subsidiary (and the resulting right of the holders of the Notes to participate in the distribution of the proceeds of those assets) will effectively be subordinated by operation of law to the claims of creditors (including trade creditors) of such Subsidiary and holders of such Subsidiary's preferred stock and any Guarantees by such Subsidiary of Indebtedness of Amkor. If Amkor were a creditor of such Subsidiary or a holder of its preferred stock, we would be entitled to participate in the distribution of the proceeds of such Subsidiary's assets. Our claims would, however, remain subordinate to any Indebtedness or preferred stock of such Subsidiary that is senior in right of payment to the Indebtedness or preferred stock held by us. In the event of the liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding or any assignment for the benefit of our creditors or a marshaling of our assets or liabilities, holders of the Notes may receive ratably less than other such creditors or interest holders. As of the date of the Indenture, all our Subsidiaries will be "Restricted Subsidiaries." However, under the circumstances described below under the caption "-- Certain Covenants -- Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries," we will be permitted to designate certain of our Subsidiaries as "Unrestricted Subsidiaries." Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to many of the restrictive covenants in the Indenture. PRINCIPAL, MATURITY AND INTEREST The Notes will mature on May 15, 2013. Interest on the Notes will accrue at the rate of 7.75% per annum and will be payable semiannually in arrears on May 15 and November 15, commencing on November 15, 2003. Amkor will make each interest payment to the Holders of record of the Notes on the immediately preceding May 1 and November 1. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the date of original issuance or, if interest has already been paid, from the date it was most recently paid. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. The interest rate on the Notes is subject to increase if Amkor does not file a registration statement relating to the exchange offer on a timely basis, if the registration statement is not declared effective on a timely basis or if certain other conditions are not satisfied, all as further described under the caption "Registration Rights; Liquidated Damages." All references to interest on the Notes include any such Liquidated Damages that may be payable. Amkor will issue Notes in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION Except as set forth below, the Notes will not be redeemable at the option of Amkor prior to May 15, 2008. Starting on that date, Amkor may redeem all or any portion of the Notes, at once or over time, after giving the required notice under the Indenture. The Notes may be redeemed at the redemption prices set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest 23

payment date). The following prices are for Notes redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on May 15 of the years set forth below, and are expressed as percentages of principal amount:

REDEMPTION YEAR PRICE - --------------- ------- 2008........................................................ 103.875% 2009........................................................ 102.583% 2010........................................................ 101.292% 2011 and thereafter......................................... 100.000%
REPURCHASE AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS OFFER TO REPURCHASE UPON CHANGE OF CONTROL If a Change of Control occurs, each holder of the Notes will have the right to require Amkor to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of that holder's Notes pursuant to an offer made by Amkor (the "Change of Control Offer"). In the Change of Control Offer, Amkor will offer to make a payment (the "Change of Control Payment" in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and Liquidated Damages, if any, to the date of purchase. Within 30 days following any Change of Control, Amkor will mail a notice to each holder of the Notes describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase Notes on the date specified in such notice (the "Change of Control Payment Date"), pursuant to the procedures required by the Indenture and described in such notice. Amkor will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control. On the Change of Control Payment Date, Amkor will, to the extent lawful: (1) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; (2) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered; and (3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes so accepted together with an Officers' Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof being purchased by Amkor. The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each holder of the Notes so tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each such new Note will be in a principal amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof. Amkor will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date. The provisions described above that require Amkor to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control will be applicable regardless of whether or not any other provisions of the Indenture are applicable. Except as described above with respect to a Change of Control, the Indenture does not contain provisions that permit the holders of the Notes to require that Amkor repurchase or redeem the Notes in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar transaction. Amkor will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by Amkor and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. 24

The definition of Change of Control includes a phrase relating to the sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of "all or substantially all" of the assets of Amkor and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase "substantially all," there is no precise established definition of the phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, the ability of a holder of the Notes to require Amkor to repurchase such Notes as a result of a sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of less than all the assets of Amkor and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole to another Person or group may be uncertain. OFFER TO REPURCHASE BY APPLICATION OF EXCESS PROCEEDS OF ASSET SALES Amkor will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless: (1) Amkor (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of; (2) such fair market value is determined by the Board of Directors; and (3) at least 75% of the consideration therefor received by Amkor or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash or other Qualified Proceeds. Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, Amkor may apply such Net Proceeds at its option: (1) to repay Permitted Bank Debt, and if such Permitted Bank Debt is revolving debt, to effect a corresponding commitment reduction thereunder; (2) to acquire all or substantially all the assets of, or a majority of the Voting Stock of, another Permitted Business; (3) to make a capital expenditure; or (4) to acquire any other long-term assets that are used or useful in a Permitted Business. Pending the final application of any such Net Proceeds, Amkor may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by the Indenture. Any Net Proceeds from any Asset Sale that are not applied or invested as provided in the preceding paragraph within 365 days of such Asset Sale will constitute "Excess Proceeds". When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10 million, Amkor will make an offer (the "Asset Sale Offer") to all holders of the Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in the Indenture with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds. The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase, and will be payable in cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, Amkor may use such Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness tendered into such Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis. Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. 25

CERTAIN COVENANTS RESTRICTED PAYMENTS Amkor will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly: (1) declare or pay any dividend or make any other payment or distribution on account of Amkor's or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries' Equity Interests (including, without limitation, any payment in connection with any merger or consolidation involving Amkor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) or to the direct or indirect holders of Amkor's or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries' Equity Interests in their capacity as such (other than dividends or distributions payable in Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of Amkor or to Amkor or a Restricted Subsidiary of Amkor); (2) purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value (including, without limitation, in connection with any merger or consolidation involving Amkor) any Equity Interests of Amkor or any direct or indirect parent of Amkor or any Restricted Subsidiary of Amkor (other than any such Equity Interests owned by Amkor or any Restricted Subsidiary of Amkor); (3) make any payment on or with respect to, or purchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Indebtedness that is subordinated to the Notes, except a payment of interest or principal at the Stated Maturity thereof; or (4) make any Restricted Investment (all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (1) through (4) above being collectively referred to as "Restricted Payments"), unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment: (1) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof; and (2) Amkor would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Consolidated Interest Expense Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of the covenant described below under the caption "-- Certain Covenants -- Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock"; and (3) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by Amkor and its Restricted Subsidiaries after the Issue Date (excluding Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (2), (3), (4), (7) and (9) of the next succeeding paragraph), is less than the sum, without duplication, of: (a) 50% of the Consolidated Net Income of Amkor for the period (taken as one accounting period) from the beginning of the fiscal quarter commencing on April 1, 2003 to the end of Amkor's most recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available at the time of such Restricted Payment (or, if such Consolidated Net Income for such period is a deficit, less 100% of such deficit), plus (b) 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds received by Amkor since the Issue Date as a contribution to its common equity capital or from the issue or sale of Equity Interests of Amkor (other than Disqualified Stock) (other than Equity Interests (or Disqualified Stock or debt securities) sold to a Subsidiary of Amkor), plus (c) to the extent that any Restricted Investment that was made after the Issue Date is sold for cash or otherwise liquidated or repaid for cash, the lesser of (i) the cash return of capital with respect to such Restricted Investment (less the cost of disposition, if any) and (ii) the initial amount of such Restricted Investment, plus (d) the amount by which (i) Indebtedness (other than Disqualified Stock) of Amkor or any Restricted Subsidiary issued after the Issue Date is reduced on Amkor's consolidated balance sheet (if prepared in accordance with GAAP as of the date of determination) and (ii) Disqualified Stock 26

of Amkor issued after the Issue Date (held by any Person other than any Restricted Subsidiary) is reduced (measured with reference to its redemption or repurchase price), in each case, as a result of the conversion or exchange of any such Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock into Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of Amkor, less, in each case, any cash distributed by Amkor upon such conversion or exchange, plus (e) to the extent that any Investment in any Unrestricted Subsidiary that was made after the Issue Date is sold for cash or otherwise liquidated, repaid for cash or such Unrestricted Subsidiary is converted into a Restricted Subsidiary, the lesser of (i) an amount equal to the sum of (A) the net reduction in Investments in Unrestricted Subsidiaries resulting from dividends, repayments of loans or advances or other transfers of assets, in each case to Amkor or any Restricted Subsidiary from Unrestricted Subsidiaries, and (B) the fair market value of the net assets of an Unrestricted Subsidiary at the time such Unrestricted Subsidiary is designated a Restricted Subsidiary, and (ii) the remaining amount of the Investment in such Unrestricted Subsidiary which has not been repaid or converted into cash or assets. The preceding provisions will not prohibit: (1) the payment of any dividend within 60 days after the date of declaration thereof, if at the date of declaration no Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused thereby and such payment would have complied with the provisions of the Indenture; (2) the making of any payment on or with respect to, or in connection with, the redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition of, any Indebtedness of Amkor or any Restricted Subsidiary that is subordinated to the Notes or of any Equity Interests of Amkor or any Restricted Subsidiary in exchange for, or out of the net cash proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale (other than to a Subsidiary of Amkor) of, Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of Amkor or any subordinated Indebtedness of Amkor; provided that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for any such redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition shall be excluded from clause (3)(b) of the preceding paragraph; (3) the making of any payment on or with respect to, or in connection with, the defeasance, redemption, repurchase or other acquisition of Indebtedness of Amkor or any Restricted Subsidiary that is subordinated to the Notes with the net cash proceeds from the incurrence of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; (4) the payment of any dividend by a Restricted Subsidiary of Amkor to the holders of its common Capital Stock on a pro rata basis; (5) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused thereby, the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Equity Interests of Amkor or any Restricted Subsidiary of Amkor held by any employee of Amkor or any Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to any employee equity subscription agreement, stock ownership plan or stock option agreement in effect from time to time; provided that the aggregate price paid for all such repurchased, redeemed, acquired or retired Equity Interests shall not exceed $2 million in any twelve-month period and $10 million in the aggregate; (6) the making of any payment on or with respect to, or repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement for value of the 5.75% subordinated convertible notes due 2006 or the 5% subordinated convertible notes due 2007 in connection with (i) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused thereby, an optional redemption of such convertible notes on or after the dates such notes become redeemable, or (ii) the honoring by Amkor of any conversion request into Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) by a holder of either such convertible notes or any future convertible notes of Amkor (including the payment by Amkor of any cash in lieu of fractional shares) in accordance with their terms; 27

(7) that portion of Investments the payment for which consists exclusively of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of Amkor; (8) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing or would be caused thereby, other Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $25 million; (9) the repurchase of Equity Interests of Amkor that may be deemed to occur upon the exercise of stock options if such Equity Interests represent a portion of the exercise price thereof; (10) any payments to one or more stockholders of Amkor in connection with settling stockholder obligations for income taxes in respect of tax periods ending prior to the conversion of Amkor from "S" corporation status to "C" corporation status; (11) in the case of an Asset Sale, any Asset Sale Offer after Amkor has complied with its obligations to the holders of the Notes under the "Asset Sale" covenant contained in the Indenture; and (12) in the case of a Change of Control, any Change of Control Offer to repurchase the senior subordinated notes after Amkor has complied with its obligations to the holders of the Notes under the "Change of Control" covenant contained in the Indenture. The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) shall be the fair market value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the assets or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by Amkor or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. The fair market value of any assets or securities that are required to be valued by this covenant with a fair market value in excess of $1 million but less than $5 million shall be evidenced by an Officer's Certificate which shall be delivered to the Trustee. The fair market value of any assets or securities that are required to be valued by this covenant with a fair market value in excess of $5 million shall be determined by the Board of Directors whose resolution with respect thereto shall be delivered to the Trustee. INCURRENCE OF INDEBTEDNESS AND ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED STOCK Amkor will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, "incur") any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and Amkor will not issue any Disqualified Stock and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that Amkor and any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and Amkor may issue Disqualified Stock, and any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Guarantor may issue preferred stock, if the Consolidated Interest Expense Coverage Ratio for Amkor's most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock or preferred stock is issued would have been at least 2.5 to 1, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred, or the Disqualified Stock or preferred stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period. The first paragraph of this covenant will not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, "Permitted Debt"): (1) the incurrence by Amkor and any Restricted Subsidiary of any Permitted Bank Debt; provided that the aggregate principal amount of all Permitted Bank Debt at any one time outstanding shall not exceed $100 million plus 85% of the consolidated accounts receivable of Amkor plus 50% of the consolidated inventory of Amkor; (2) the incurrence by Amkor and its Subsidiaries of Existing Indebtedness; (3) the incurrence by Amkor and any Guarantor of Indebtedness represented by the Notes, and any Subsidiary Guarantees; 28

(4) the incurrence by Amkor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of (a) Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of construction or improvement of property, plant or equipment used in the business of Amkor or such Restricted Subsidiary and (b) Capital Lease Obligations, in an aggregate amount at any time outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (4), not to exceed 10% of Amkor's Consolidated Net Assets; (5) the incurrence by Amkor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to refund, refinance or replace Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was permitted by the Indenture to be incurred under the first paragraph of this covenant or clause (2), (3), (5), (13) or (14) of this paragraph; (6) the incurrence by Amkor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness between or among Amkor and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that: (a) if Amkor or any Guarantor is the obligor on such Indebtedness and such Indebtedness is in favor of a Restricted Subsidiary other than a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary, such Indebtedness must be expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all Obligations with respect to the Notes, in the case of Amkor, or the Subsidiary Guarantee, in the case of a Guarantor; and (b) (i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than Amkor or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary thereof and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either Amkor or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary thereof shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by Amkor or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (6); (7) the incurrence by Amkor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations that are incurred for the purpose of fixing or hedging interest rate, commodity or currency risk in the ordinary course of business for bona fide hedging purposes; provided that the notional principal amount of any such Hedging Obligation with respect to interest rates does not exceed the amount of Indebtedness or other liability to which such Hedging Obligation relates; (8) the Guarantee by Amkor or any of the Guarantors of Indebtedness of Amkor or a Restricted Subsidiary of Amkor that was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this covenant; (9) the incurrence by Amkor's Unrestricted Subsidiaries of Non-Recourse Debt; provided, however, that if any such Indebtedness ceases to be Non-Recourse Debt of an Unrestricted Subsidiary, such event shall be deemed to constitute an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of Amkor that was not permitted by this clause (9); (10) the incurrence of Indebtedness solely in respect of performance, surety and similar bonds or completion or performance Guarantees, to the extent that such incurrence does not result in the incurrence of any obligation for the payment of borrowed money to others; (11) the incurrence of Indebtedness arising from the agreements of Amkor or a Restricted Subsidiary of Amkor providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the disposition of any business, assets or a Subsidiary; provided, however, that: (a) such Indebtedness is not reflected as a liability on the balance sheet of Amkor or any Restricted Subsidiary of Amkor; and (b) the maximum assumable liability in respect of all such Indebtedness shall at no time exceed the gross proceeds, including non-cash proceeds (the fair market value of such non-cash proceeds being measured at the time received and without giving effect to any subsequent changes in 29

value), actually received by Amkor and its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such disposition; (12) the accrual of interest, accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, and the payment of dividends on Disqualified Stock in the form of additional shares of the same class of Disqualified Stock; provided, in each such case, that the amount thereof is included in Consolidated Interest Expense of Amkor as accrued; (13) the incurrence of Indebtedness by Foreign Subsidiaries in an amount not to exceed 10% of the Total Tangible Assets of the Foreign Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; and (14) the incurrence by Amkor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (14), not to exceed $25 million. Indebtedness or preferred stock of any Person that is outstanding at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of Amkor (including upon designation of any Subsidiary or other Person as a Restricted Subsidiary) or is merged with or into or consolidated with Amkor or a Restricted Subsidiary of Amkor shall be deemed to have been incurred at the time such Person becomes such a Restricted Subsidiary of Amkor or is merged with or into or consolidated with Amkor or a Restricted Subsidiary of Amkor, as applicable. Amkor will not incur any Indebtedness (including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of Amkor unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Notes on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that no Indebtedness of Amkor shall be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of Amkor solely by virtue of any Liens, Guarantees, maturity of payments or structural seniority. For purposes of determining compliance with this "Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock" covenant, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (14) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this covenant, Amkor will, at its sole discretion, classify or reclassify such item of Indebtedness (or any part thereof) in any manner that complies with this covenant, and such item of Indebtedness shall be treated as having been incurred pursuant to only one of such clauses or pursuant to the first paragraph of this covenant. For purposes of determining any particular amount of Indebtedness under this covenant, Guarantees, Liens or obligations in support of letters of credit supporting Indebtedness shall not be included to the extent such letters of credit are included in the amount of such Indebtedness. Any increase in the amount of any Indebtedness solely by reason of currency fluctuations shall not be considered an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this covenant. LIENS Amkor will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien of any kind securing Indebtedness on any asset now owned or hereafter acquired, except Permitted Liens, unless the Notes are equally and ratably secured with the obligations so secured for as long as such Indebtedness will be so secured. 30

DIVIDEND AND OTHER PAYMENT RESTRICTIONS AFFECTING SUBSIDIARIES Amkor will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to: (1) pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to Amkor or any of Amkor's Restricted Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or pay any indebtedness owed to Amkor or any of Amkor's Restricted Subsidiaries; (2) make loans or advances to Amkor or any of Amkor's Restricted Subsidiaries; or (3) transfer any of its properties or assets to Amkor or any of Amkor's Restricted Subsidiaries. However, the preceding restrictions will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of: (1) Existing Indebtedness as in effect on the date of the Indenture and any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings thereof; provided that such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in such Existing Indebtedness, as in effect on the date of the Indenture; (2) the Indenture and the Notes; (3) applicable law; (4) any instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person acquired by Amkor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness was incurred in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired; provided that, in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of the Indenture to be incurred; (5) customary nonassignment provisions in leases, licenses or other contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practices; (6) purchase money obligations or Capital Lease Obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business that impose restrictions on the property so acquired of the nature described in clause (3) of the first paragraph of this section; (7) any agreement for the sale or other disposition of a Restricted Subsidiary that restricts dividends, distributions, loans, advances or transfers by such Restricted Subsidiary pending its sale or other disposition; (8) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced; (9) agreements entered into with respect to Liens securing Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred pursuant to the provisions of the covenant described above under the caption "-- Certain Covenants -- Liens" that limit the right of Amkor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to dispose of the assets subject to such Lien; (10) provisions with respect to the disposition or distribution of assets or property in joint venture agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business; (11) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business; 31

(12) any Receivables Program; and (13) any restriction imposed pursuant to contracts for the sale of assets with respect to the transfer of the assets to be sold pursuant to such contract. MERGER, CONSOLIDATION OR SALE OF ASSETS Amkor may not, directly or indirectly consolidate or merge with or into another Person (whether or not Amkor is the surviving corporation) or sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets, in one or more related transactions, to another Person, unless: (1) either (a) Amkor is the surviving corporation or (b) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than Amkor) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made is a corporation organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia; (2) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than Amkor) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made assumes all the obligations of Amkor under the Notes, the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; (3) immediately after such transaction no Default or Event of Default exists; (4) except in the case of the amalgamation, consolidation or merger of Amkor (a) with or into a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary or (b) with or into any Person solely for the purpose of effecting a change in the state of incorporation of Amkor, Amkor or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than Amkor) will, on the date of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related financing transactions as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Consolidated Interest Expense Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of the covenant described above under the caption "-- Certain Covenants -- Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock"; and (5) Amkor shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate stating that such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition complies with the Indenture. In addition, Amkor may not, directly or indirectly, lease all or substantially all of its properties or assets, in one or more related transactions, to any other Person. This "Merger, Consolidation or Sale of Assets" covenant will not apply to a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of assets by Amkor to any of its Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES Amkor will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or Guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate (each, an "Affiliate Transaction"), unless: (1) such Affiliate Transaction (when viewed together with related Affiliate Transactions, if any) is on terms that are no less favorable to Amkor or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by Amkor or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and (2) Amkor delivers to the Trustee: (a) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $10 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors set forth in an Officer's Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this covenant and that 32

such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors (of which there must be at least one); and (b) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $25 million, an opinion as to the fairness to the holders of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing; provided that (i) Amkor and its Restricted Subsidiaries may enter into Affiliate Transactions pursuant to the Supply Agreement, the Foundry Agreement, the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Transition Services Agreement and the Intellectual Property Rights Licensing Agreement, and may amend, modify and supplement such agreements from time to time, so long as Amkor shall have determined that any such amendment, modification or supplement will not have a material adverse economic effect on Amkor and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and (ii) Amkor and its Restricted Subsidiaries may only enter into transactions pursuant to the Supply Agreement, the Foundry Agreement, the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Transition Services Agreement and the Intellectual Property Rights Licensing Agreement, and amend, modify and supplement such agreements from time to time, in circumstances in which clause (i) is not applicable, if a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors (of which there must be at least one) shall have approved such transaction, amendment, modification or supplement; provided, further, that in the case of both clauses (i) and (ii), Amkor shall deliver to the Trustee within 30 days of such transaction, amendment, modification or supplement an Officer's Certificate (A) describing the transaction, amendment, modification or supplement approved, (B) in the case of transactions, amendments, modifications and supplements to which clause (i) is applicable, setting forth the determination of Amkor required pursuant to clause (i), and (C) in the case of transactions, amendments, modifications and supplements to which clause (ii) is applicable, attaching a resolution of the Board of Directors certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this covenant. The following items shall not be deemed Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of the prior paragraphs: (1) any employment agreement or arrangement entered into by Amkor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any employee benefit plan available to employees of Amkor and its Subsidiaries generally, in each case in the ordinary course of business and consistent with the past practice of Amkor or such Restricted Subsidiary; (2) Affiliate Transactions between or among Amkor and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries; (3) payment of reasonable directors' fees to Persons who are not otherwise Affiliates of Amkor and indemnity provided on behalf of officers, directors and employees of Amkor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of Amkor; (4) Any Affiliate Transactions pursuant to which Amkor makes short-term advances or otherwise makes short-term loans to ASI, which advances or loans are to be repaid by ASI (i) within three months from the date of such advance or loan and (ii) by offsets by Amkor of amounts payable by Amkor to ASI pursuant to the Supply Agreement, if a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors (of which there must be at least one) shall have approved such transaction, amendment, modification or supplement; provided that the total amount of such advances and loans outstanding at any one time shall not exceed $50 million; and (5) Any Restricted Payments that are permitted as described above under the caption "-- Certain Covenants -- Restricted Payments." For purposes of this "Transactions With Affiliates" covenant, any transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions between Amkor or any Restricted Subsidiary and an Affiliate that is approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors (of which there must be at least one to utilize this method of approval) and evidenced by a Board resolution or for which a fairness opinion has been issued shall be deemed to be on terms that are no less favorable to Amkor or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those 33

that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by Amkor or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person and thus shall be permitted under this "Transactions With Affiliates" covenant. SALE AND LEASEBACK TRANSACTIONS Amkor will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, enter into any sale and leaseback transaction; provided that Amkor or any Restricted Subsidiary may enter into a sale and leaseback transaction if: (1) Amkor or such Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, could have incurred Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt relating to such sale and leaseback transaction (if the lease is in the nature of an operating lease, otherwise the amount of Indebtedness) under the Consolidated Interest Expense Coverage Ratio test in the first paragraph of the covenant described above under the caption "-- Certain Covenants -- Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock"; and (2) the transfer of assets in that sale and leaseback transaction is permitted by, and Amkor applies the proceeds of such transaction in compliance with, the covenant described above under the caption "-- Repurchase at the Option of Holders -- Offer to Repurchase by Application of Excess Proceeds of Asset Sales." The foregoing restriction shall not apply to any sale and leaseback transaction if (i) the transaction is solely between Amkor and any Restricted Subsidiary or between Restricted Subsidiaries or (ii) the sale and leaseback transaction is consummated within 180 days after the purchase of the assets subject to such transaction. NO AMENDMENT TO SUBORDINATION PROVISIONS Without the consent of the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, Amkor will not amend, modify or alter the indenture governing the 10.50% senior subordinated notes due 2009 in any way to: (1) increase the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on any 10.50% senior subordinated notes due 2009; (2) increase the principal of, advance the final maturity date of or shorten the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any 10.50% senior subordinated notes due 2009; (3) alter the redemption provisions or the price or terms at which Amkor is required to offer to purchase any 10.50% senior subordinated notes due 2009; or (4) amend the subordinated provisions of Article 10 contained in the indenture governing the 10.50% senior subordinated notes due 2009. SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES If Amkor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires, creates or capitalizes a Domestic Subsidiary after the date of the Indenture that is a Significant Subsidiary, then that newly acquired, created or capitalized Subsidiary must become a Guarantor and execute a supplemental indenture satisfactory to the Trustee and deliver an opinion of counsel to the Trustee within 10 business days of the date on which it was acquired or created. DESIGNATION OF RESTRICTED AND UNRESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES The Board of Directors may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default. If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all outstanding Investments owned by Amkor and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of such designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under the covenant described above under the caption "-- Certain 34

Covenants -- Restricted Payments" or Permitted Investments, as applicable. All such outstanding Investments will be valued at their fair market value at the time of such designation. That designation will only be permitted if such Restricted Payment would be permitted at that time and if such Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The Board of Directors may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if the redesignation would not cause a Default. LIMITATION ON ISSUANCES AND SALES OF EQUITY INTERESTS IN WHOLLY OWNED RESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES Amkor will not, and will not permit any of its Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries to, transfer, convey, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any Equity Interests in any Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of Amkor to any Person (other than Amkor or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of Amkor), unless: (1) such transfer, conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition is of all the Equity Interests in such Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary or immediately following such transfer, conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition, the Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary is a Restricted Subsidiary; and (2) the cash Net Proceeds from such transfer, conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition are applied in accordance with the covenant described above under the caption "-- Repurchase at the Option of Holders -- Offer to Repurchase by Application of Excess Proceeds of Asset Sales." In addition, Amkor will not permit any Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of Amkor to issue any of its Equity Interests (other than, if necessary, shares of its Capital Stock constituting directors' qualifying shares) to any Person other than to Amkor or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of Amkor unless immediately following such issuance the Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary is a Restricted Subsidiary. METHODS OF RECEIVING PAYMENTS ON THE NOTES If a holder has given wire transfer instructions to Amkor, Amkor will make all principal, premium and interest payments on those Notes in accordance with those instructions. All other payments on the Notes will be made at the office or agency of the Paying Agent and Registrar within the City and State of New York unless Amkor elects to make interest payments by check mailed to the holders at their addresses set forth in the register of holders. PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR FOR THE NOTES The Trustee will initially act as Paying Agent and Registrar. Amkor may change the Paying Agent or Registrar without prior notice to the holders of the Notes, and Amkor or any of its Subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE A holder may transfer or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and Amkor may require a holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The registered holder of a Note will be treated as its owner for all purposes. PAYMENTS FOR CONSENT Amkor will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any holder of the Notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of the Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to all holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement. 35

REPORTS Whether or not required by the SEC, so long as any Notes are outstanding, Amkor shall file with the SEC (if permitted) all the reports and other information as it would be required to file with the SEC by Sections 13(a) and 15(d) under the Exchange Act, as if it were subject thereto. Amkor shall supply the Trustee and each holder of the Notes, or shall supply to the Trustee for forwarding to each holder of the Notes, without cost to any such holder, copies of such reports and other information (whether or not so filed). EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES With respect to the Notes, each of the following is an "Event of Default": (1) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on, or Liquidated Damages with respect to, the Notes; (2) default in payment when due of the principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes; (3) failure by Amkor or any of its Subsidiaries to make any payment required to be made under the provisions described above under the caption "-- Repurchase at the Option of Holders -- Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control" or "-- Repurchase at the Option of Holders -- Offer to Repurchase by Application of Excess Proceeds of Asset Sales;" (4) failure by Amkor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for 60 days after notice to comply with any covenant, representations, warranty or other agreements in the Indenture is provided to Amkor by the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of then outstanding Notes; (5) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any Indebtedness for money borrowed by Amkor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (or the payment of which is guaranteed by Amkor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) whether such Indebtedness or Guarantee now exists, or is created after the date of the Indenture, in an aggregate principal amount of $10 million or more, if that default: (a) is caused by a failure to pay principal of such Indebtedness at the Stated Maturity thereof (a "Payment Default"); or (b) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to the Stated Maturity thereof; (6) failure by Amkor or any of its Significant Subsidiaries or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of $10 million (other than amounts covered by insurance), which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period of 60 days; and (7) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to Amkor or any of its Significant Subsidiaries, or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary. In the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, with respect to Amkor, any Subsidiary that is a Significant Subsidiary or any group of Subsidiaries that, taken together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Holders of the Notes may not enforce their respective indentures or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its 36

consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or the principal of, the Notes. Amkor is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture. Upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, Amkor is required to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default. NO PERSONAL LIABILITY OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND STOCKHOLDERS No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of Amkor or any Guarantor, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of Amkor or the Guarantors under the Notes, the Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each holder of the Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. The waiver may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws. LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE Amkor may, at its option and at any time, elect to have all of its obligations discharged with respect to the outstanding Notes and all obligations of the Guarantors discharged with respect to their Subsidiary Guarantees ("Legal Defeasance"), except for: (1) the rights of holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest and Liquidated Damages on such Notes when such payments are due from the trust referred to below; (2) Amkor's obligations with respect to the Notes concerning issuing temporary Notes, registration of Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust; (3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and Amkor's obligations in connection therewith; and (4) the Legal Defeasance provisions of the Indenture. In addition, Amkor may, at its option and at any time, elect to have the Obligations of Amkor and the Guarantors released with respect to certain covenants that are described in the Indenture ("Covenant Defeasance"), and thereafter any omission to comply with those covenants shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes. In the event Covenant Defeasance occurs, certain events (other than nonpayment, bankruptcy, receivership, rehabilitation and insolvency events) described under the caption "-- Events of Default and Remedies" will no longer constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Notes. In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance: (1) Amkor must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the holders of the Notes, cash in United States dollars, noncallable government securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants, to pay the principal of, premium and Liquidated Damages, if any, and interest and Liquidated Damages on the outstanding Notes at the Stated Maturity or on the applicable redemption date, as the case may be, and Amkor must specify whether the Notes are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date; (2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, Amkor shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that (a) Amkor has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (b) since the date of the Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion of counsel shall confirm that, the holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and will be 37

subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal Defeasance had not occurred; (3) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, Amkor shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not occurred; (4) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing either (a) on the date of such deposit (other than a Default or Event of Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such deposit) or (b) insofar as Events of Default from bankruptcy or insolvency events are concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st day after the date of deposit; (5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under any material agreement or instrument (other than the Indenture) to which Amkor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries are parties or by which Amkor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries are bound; (6) Amkor must have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that after the 91st day following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally; (7) Amkor must deliver to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by Amkor with the intent of preferring the holders of the Notes over the other creditors of Amkor with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors of Amkor or others; (8) Amkor must deliver to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate and an opinion of counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance have been complied with; and (9) except as otherwise provided in the Indenture, each Guarantor shall have been released from any of its Obligations under its Guarantee of the Notes. AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER Subject to the exceptions specified in the following paragraphs, the Indenture may be amended with the consent of the holders of a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes and any Default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture may be waived with the consent of the holders of a majority of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Notes. Without the consent of each holder affected, an amendment or waiver may not (with respect to any Notes held by a nonconsenting holder): (1) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; (2) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes (other than provisions relating to the covenants described above under the caption "-- Repurchase at the Option of Holders"); (3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any Note; (4) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes and a waiver of the Payment Default that resulted from such acceleration); (5) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Notes; 38

(6) make any change in the provisions of the Indenture relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of holders of the Notes to receive payments of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes; (7) waive a payment required by one of the covenants described above under the caption "-- Repurchase at the Option of Holders;" or (8) make any change in the preceding amendment and waiver provisions. Notwithstanding the preceding, without the consent of any holder of the Notes, Amkor and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Notes to: (1) cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; (2) provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; (3) provide for the assumption of Amkor's obligations to holders of the Notes in the case of a merger or consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of Amkor's assets; (4) make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the holders of Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such holder; or (5) comply with requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939. CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE If the Trustee becomes a creditor of Amkor or any Guarantor, the Indenture limits its right to obtain payment of claims in certain cases, or to realize on certain property received in respect of any such claim as security or otherwise. Such Trustee will be permitted to engage in other transactions, but if it acquires any conflicting interest, it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to the SEC for permission to continue or resign. The holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee, subject to certain exceptions. The Indenture provides that in case an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee will be required, in the exercise of its power, to use the degree of care of a prudent man in the conduct of his own affairs. Subject to such provisions, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Indenture at the request of any holder of the Notes, unless such holder shall have offered to the Trustee security and indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense. AVAILABLE INFORMATION Anyone who receives this prospectus may obtain a copy of the Indenture and Registration Rights Agreement without charge by writing to Amkor Technology, Inc., 1345 Enterprise Drive, West Chester, Pennsylvania 19380, Attention: Secretary. GOVERNING LAW The Indenture provides that it and the Notes will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to applicable principles of conflicts of laws to the extent that the application of the law of another jurisdiction would be required thereby. REGISTRATION RIGHTS; LIQUIDATED DAMAGES We and the initial purchasers have entered into the Registration Rights Agreement on or prior to May 8, 2003. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, we agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC the exchange offer registration statement on the appropriate form under the Securities Act with respect to the exchange notes. Pursuant to the exchange offer registration statement of which this prospectus is 39

a part, we are offering to the holders of Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to the exchange offer who are able to make certain representations the opportunity to exchange their Transfer Restricted Securities for exchange notes. If (1) the exchange offer is not permitted by applicable law or SEC policy or (2) any holder of Notes that are Transfer Restricted Securities notifies us prior to the 20th business day following the consummation of the exchange offer that (a) it is prohibited by law or SEC policy from participating in the exchange offer, (b) it may not resell the exchange notes acquired by it in the exchange offer to the public without delivering a prospectus, and the prospectus contained in the exchange offer Registration Statement is not appropriate or available for such resales by it, or (c) it is a broker-dealer and holds Notes acquired directly from us or any of our Affiliates, we will file with the SEC a Shelf Registration Statement to register for public resale the Transfer Restricted Securities held by any such holder who provides us with certain information for inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement. For the purposes of the Registration Rights Agreement, "Transfer Restricted Securities" means each Note until: (1) the date on which such Note has been exchanged by a Person other than a broker-dealer for an exchange note in the exchange offer; (2) following the exchange by a broker-dealer in the exchange offer of a Note for an exchange note, the date on which such exchange note is sold to a purchaser who receives from such broker-dealer on or prior to the date of such sale a copy of the prospectus contained in the exchange offer Registration Statement; (3) the date on which such Note has been effectively registered under the Securities Act and disposed of in accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement; or (4) the date on which such Note is distributed to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act. The Registration Rights Agreement will provide that: (1) we will use commercially reasonable efforts to file an exchange offer Registration Statement with the SEC on or prior to September 6, 2003; (2) we will use commercially reasonable efforts to have the exchange offer Registration Statement declared effective by the SEC on or prior to December 5, 2003; (3) unless the exchange offer would not be permitted by applicable law or SEC policy, we will: (a) commence the exchange offer and (b) use commercially reasonable efforts to issue on or prior to 30 business days, or longer, if required by the federal securities laws, after the date on which the exchange offer Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC, exchange notes in exchange for all Notes tendered prior thereto in the exchange offer; and (4) if obligated to file the Shelf Registration Statement, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to file the Shelf Registration Statement with the SEC on or prior to 60 days after such filing obligation arises and to cause the Shelf Registration to be declared effective by the SEC on or prior to 120 days after such obligation arises. If: (1) we fail to file any of the registration statements required by the Registration Rights Agreement on or before the date specified for such filing; or (2) any of such registration statement is not declared effective by the SEC on or prior to the date specified for such effectiveness (the "Effectiveness Target Date"); or 40

(3) we fail to consummate the exchange offer within 30 business days of the Effectiveness Target Date with respect to the exchange offer Registration Statement; or (4) the Shelf Registration Statement or the exchange offer Registration Statement is declared effective but thereafter ceases to be effective or usable in connection with resales of Transfer Restricted Securities during the periods specified in the Registration Rights Agreement (each such event referred to in clauses (1) through (4) above, a "Registration Default"), then we will pay Liquidated Damages to each holder of the Notes, with respect to the first 90-day period immediately following the occurrence of the first Registration Default, at a rate equal to 0.25% per annum in principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities held by such holder for each week or portion thereof.

"Stated Maturity" means, with respect to any installment of interest or principal on any series of Indebtedness, the date on which such payment of interest or principal was scheduled to be paid in the original documentation governing such Indebtedness, and shall not include any contingent obligations to repay, redeem or repurchase any such interest or principal prior to the date originally scheduled for the payment thereof. "Strategic Investment" means any Investment in any Person (other than an Unrestricted Subsidiary) whose primary business is related, ancillary or complementary to a Permitted Business, and such Investment is determined in good faith by the Board of Directors (or senior officers of Amkor to whom the Board of Directors has duly delegated the authority to make such a determination), whose determination shall be conclusive and evidenced by a resolution, to promote or significantly benefit the businesses of Amkor and its Restricted Subsidiaries on the date of such Investment; provided that, with respect to any Strategic Investment or series of related Strategic Investments involving aggregate consideration in excess of $10 million, Amkor shall deliver to the Trustee a resolution of the Board of Directors of Amkor set forth in an Officer's Certificate certifying that such Investment qualifies as a Strategic Investment pursuant to this definition.

The Board of Directors of Amkor may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such designation shall be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted Subsidiary of Amkor of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted Subsidiary and such designation shall only be permitted if (1) such Indebtedness is permitted under "-- Certain Covenants -- Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock," calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the four-quarter reference period, and (2) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence following such designation.

ADDITIONAL TERMS OF THE EXCHANGE NOTES The terms of the exchange notes will be identical in all material respects to those of the original notes except that the exchange notes: - will have been registered under the Securities Act and therefore will not be subject to certain restrictions on transfer applicable to the original notes and - will not be entitled to certain registration rights under the Registration Rights Agreement, including the provision for Liquidated Damages of up to 1.00% per annum on the original notes. Holders of original notes should review the information set forth under "Risk Factors" and "The Exchange Offer -- Consequences of Failure to Exchange." 55

BOOK-ENTRY; DELIVERY AND FORM THE GLOBAL SECURITIES The original notes are, and the exchange notes will be, issued in the form of one or more global certificates, known as "global securities." The global securities will be deposited on the date of the acceptance for exchange of the original notes and the issuance of the exchange notes with, or behalf of, DTC and registered in the name of Cede & Co., as DTC's nominee. Exchange notes that are issued as described below under "Issuance of Certificated Securities" will be issued in the form of registered definitive certificates, known as "certificated securities." Upon the transfer of certificated securities, such certificated securities may, unless the global securities have previously been exchanged for certificated securities, be exchanged for an interest in the global securities representing the principal amount of exchange notes being transferred. Persons holding interests in the global securities may hold their interests directly through DTC or indirectly through organizations that are participants in DTC. The descriptions of the operations and procedures of DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream set forth below are provided solely as a matter of convenience. These operations and procedures are solely within the control of the respective settlement systems and are subject to change by them from time to time. Neither we, the trustee, nor any paying agent or registrar takes any responsibility for these operations or procedures, and holders of securities are urged to contact the relevant system or its participants directly to discuss these matters. DTC has advised us that it is (1) a limited purpose trust company organized under the laws of the State of New York, (2) a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, (3) a member of the Federal Reserve System, (4) a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code, as amended, and (5) a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to Section 17A of the Exchange Act. DTC was created to hold securities for its participants and facilitates the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between participants through electronic book-entry changes to the accounts of its participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical transfer and delivery of certificates. DTC's participants include securities brokers and dealers, including the initial purchasers, banks and trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. Indirect access to DTC's system is also available to other entities such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies, referred to as "indirect participants," that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a participant, either directly or indirectly. Investors who are not participants may beneficially own securities held by or on behalf of DTC only through participants or indirect participants. Ownership of the exchange notes will be shown on, and the transfer of ownership thereof will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC, with respect to the interests of participants, and the records of participants and the indirect participants, with respect to the interests of persons other than participants. The laws of some jurisdictions may require that some types of purchasers of exchange notes take physical delivery of the securities in definitive form. Accordingly, the ability to transfer interests in exchange notes represented by a global security to these persons may be limited. In addition, because DTC can act only on behalf of its participants, who in turn act on behalf of persons who hold interests through participants, the ability of a person having an interest in securities represented by a global security to pledge or transfer the interest to persons or entities that do not participate in DTC's system, or to otherwise take actions in respect of the interest, may be affected by the lack of a physical definitive security in respect of the interest. So long as DTC or its nominee is the registered owner of a global security, DTC or such nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the exchange notes represented by the global security for all purposes under the indenture. Except as provided below, owners of beneficial interests in a global security will not be entitled to have securities represented by the global security registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of certificated securities, and will not be considered the owners or holders thereof under the indenture for any purpose, including with respect to the 56

giving of any direction, instruction or approval to the trustee under the indenture. Accordingly, each holder owning a beneficial interest in a global security must rely on the procedures of DTC and, if the holder is not a participant or an indirect participant, on the procedures of the participant through which the holder owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder of exchange notes under the indenture or the global security. We understand that under existing industry practice, in the event that we request any action of holders of exchange notes, or a holder that is an owner of a beneficial interest in a global security desires to take any action that DTC, as the holder of such global security, is entitled to take, DTC would authorize the participants to take the action and the participants would authorize holders owning through the participants to take the action or would otherwise act upon the instruction of the holders. Neither we nor the trustee will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to, or payments made on account of securities by, DTC, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records of DTC relating to the exchange notes. Payments with respect to the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, any exchange notes represented by a global security registered in the name of DTC or its nominee on the applicable record date will be payable by the trustee to or at the direction of DTC or its nominee in its capacity as the registered holder of the global security representing the exchange notes under the indenture. Under the terms of the indenture, we may treat, and the trustee may treat, the persons in whose names the exchange notes, including the global securities, are registered as the owners of the exchange notes for the purpose of receiving payment on the exchange notes and for any and all other purposes whatsoever. Accordingly, neither we nor the trustee has or will have any responsibility or liability for the payment of these amounts to owners of beneficial interests in the global security, including principal, premium, if any, and interest. Payments by the participants and the indirect participants to the owners of beneficial interests in the global securities will be governed by standing instructions and customary industry practice and will be the responsibility of the participants or the indirect participants and DTC. Transfers between participants in DTC will be effected in accordance with DTC's procedures, and will be settled in same-day funds. Transfers between participants in Euroclear or Clearstream will be effected in the ordinary way in accordance with their respective rules and operating procedures. Subject to compliance with the transfer restrictions applicable to the securities, cross-market transfers between the participants in DTC, on the one hand, and Euroclear or Clearstream participants, on the other hand, will be effected through DTC in accordance with DTC's rules on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by its respective depositary; however, such cross-market transactions will require delivery of instructions to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by the counterparty in the system in accordance with the rules and procedures and within the established deadlines (Brussels time) of the system. Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its respective depositary to take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or receiving interests in the relevant global securities in DTC, and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures for same-day funds settlement applicable to DTC. Euroclear participants and Clearstream participants may not deliver instructions directly to the depositaries for Euroclear or Clearstream. Because of time zone differences, the securities account of a Euroclear or Clearstream participant purchasing an interest in a global security from a participant in DTC will be credited, and any such crediting will be reported to the relevant Euroclear or Clearstream participant, during the securities settlement processing day, which must be a business day for Euroclear and Clearstream, immediately following the settlement date of DTC. Cash received in Euroclear or Clearstream as a result of the sale of an interest in a global security by or through a Euroclear or Clearstream participant to a participant in DTC will be received with value on the settlement date of DTC but will be available in the relevant Euroclear or Clearstream cash account only as of the business day for Euroclear or Clearstream following DTC's settlement date. Although DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream have agreed to the foregoing procedures to facilitate transfers of interests in the global securities among participants in DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream, they are under no obligation to perform or to continue to perform such procedures, and such procedures may be discontinued at any time. Neither we nor the trustee will have any responsibility for the performance by DTC, Euroclear or 57

Clearstream or their respective participants or indirect participants of their respective obligations under the rules and procedures governing their operations. ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATED SECURITIES If (1) we notify the trustee in writing that DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream is no longer willing or able to act as a depositary or clearing system for the exchange notes or DTC ceases to be registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act, and a successor depositary or clearing system is not appointed within 90 days of this notice or cessation, (2) we, at our option, notify the trustee in writing that we elect to cause the issuance of exchange notes in definitive form under the indenture, or (3) upon the occurrence and continuation of an event of default under the indenture with respect to any series of exchange notes, then, upon surrender by DTC of the global securities, certificated securities will be issued to each person that DTC identifies as the beneficial owner of the exchange notes represented by the global securities. Upon any such issuance, the trustee is required to register the certificated securities in the name of the person or persons or the nominee of any of these persons and cause the same to be delivered to these persons. Neither we nor the trustee shall be liable for any delay by DTC or any participant or indirect participant in identifying the beneficial owners of the related exchange notes and each such person may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, instructions from DTC for all purposes, including with respect to the registration and delivery, and the respective principal amounts, of the exchange notes to be issued. UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS The following is a general discussion of the material United States federal income tax consequences relating to the exchange of original notes for exchange notes in the exchange offer and the ownership and disposition of the exchange notes. This discussion is based on, as of the date hereof, the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), Treasury Regulations promulgated or proposed thereunder, judicial decisions and current positions of the Internal Revenue Service contained in published revenue rulings, revenue procedures and announcements, all of which are subject to change either prospectively or retroactively, or are subject to different interpretations. We have not obtained, nor do we intend to obtain, a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service as to any United States federal income tax consequences discussed below and there can be no assurances that the Internal Revenue Service will not take contrary positions. This discussion is limited to U.S. and Non-U.S. Holders who exchange original notes for exchange notes pursuant to the exchange offer and who hold the exchange notes as capital assets. This discussion does not deal with all aspects of United States federal income taxation that might be relevant to holders in light of their particular circumstances, nor does it address the tax consequences to holders subject to special treatment under the United States federal income tax laws, such as: - certain financial institutions; - insurance companies; - tax-exempt organizations; - dealers in securities or foreign currencies; - persons who hold the exchange notes as part of a hedge, conversion transaction, straddle or other integrated transaction; - U.S. Holders whose functional currency is not the United States dollar; - partnerships or other entities classified as partnerships for United States federal income tax purposes; - certain former citizens or residents of the United States; and - persons subject to the alternative minimum tax. 58

This discussion does not address the tax consequences arising under the laws of any foreign, state or local jurisdiction. PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE UNITED STATES FEDERAL TAX CONSEQUENCES OF ACQUIRING, HOLDING AND DISPOSING OF THE EXCHANGE NOTES, AS WELL AS ANY TAX CONSEQUENCES ARISING UNDER THE LAWS OF ANY STATE, LOCAL OR FOREIGN TAXING JURISDICTION. As used herein, the term "U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of a note that is for United States federal income tax purposes: - a citizen or resident of the United States; - a corporation, or other entity taxable as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes, created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof; - an estate, the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source; - a trust that either (1) is subject to the supervision of a court within the United States and has one or more United States persons with authority to control all substantial decisions or (2) has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a United States person; or - not otherwise a U.S. Holder but whose income from a note is effectively connected with the holder's conduct of a trade or business in the United States. As used herein, the term "Non-U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of a note that is not a U.S. Holder for United States federal income tax purposes. THE EXCHANGE OFFER An exchange of original notes for exchange notes pursuant to the exchange offer will not be a taxable event for United States federal income tax purposes. Consequently, U.S. Holders and Non-U.S. Holders will not recognize any taxable gain or loss as a result of exchanging original notes for exchange notes pursuant to the exchange offer. The holding period of the exchange notes will include the holding period of the original notes, and the tax basis in the exchange notes will be the same as the basis in the original notes immediately before the exchange. TAX CONSEQUENCES TO U.S. HOLDERS TREATMENT OF INTEREST Interest on an exchange note will be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary interest income at the time it accrues or is received in accordance with the U.S. Holder's regular method of accounting for United States federal income tax purposes. SALE, EXCHANGE OR RETIREMENT OF EXCHANGE NOTES In general, upon the sale, exchange, retirement or other taxable disposition of an exchange note, a U.S. Holder will recognize taxable gain or loss equal to the difference between: (1) the amount of cash and the fair market value of other property received in the sale, exchange, retirement or other taxable disposition (less any amount attributable to accrued but unpaid interest on the exchange note not previously included in gross income by the U.S. Holder, which will be taxable as such); and (2) the U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in such exchange note. Gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on the sale, exchange, retirement or other taxable disposition of an exchange note generally will be capital gain or loss. The gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss, if 59

the exchange note has been held for more than 12 months. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to certain limitations. BACKUP WITHHOLDING AND INFORMATION REPORTING Information returns will be filed with the Internal Revenue Service in connection with payments on the exchange notes and the proceeds from a sale or other disposition of the exchange notes. A U.S. Holder will not be subject to a 28% backup withholding tax on these payments if the U.S. Holder provides its taxpayer identification number to the paying agent and complies with certain certification procedures or is otherwise exempt from backup withholding. The amount of any backup withholding withheld from a payment to a U.S. Holder will be allowed as a credit against the U.S. Holder's United States federal income tax liability and may entitle the U.S. Holder to a refund, provided that the required information is furnished to the Internal Revenue Service. TAX CONSEQUENCES TO NON-U.S. HOLDERS TREATMENT OF INTEREST Subject to the discussion below concerning backup withholding, payments of interest on the exchange notes to any Non-U.S. Holder will not be subject to United States federal income tax, or 30% withholding, provided that: (1) the interest is not effectively connected with the conduct by the Non-U.S. Holder of a trade or business in the United States; (2) the Non-U.S. Holder does not own, actually or constructively, 10% or more of the combined voting power of all classes of our stock entitled to vote; (3) the Non-U.S. Holder is not a controlled foreign corporation (within the meaning of the Code) that is related, directly or indirectly, to us through stock ownership; and (4) either (A) the beneficial owner of an exchange note certifies on Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, under penalties of perjury, that the Non-U.S. Holder is not a United States person or (B) the Non-U.S. Holder holds its exchange note through certain foreign intermediaries and satisfies the certification requirements of applicable United States Treasury Regulations. SALE, EXCHANGE OR RETIREMENT OF EXCHANGE NOTES Subject to the discussion below concerning backup withholding, a Non-U.S. Holder of an exchange note will not be subject to United States federal income tax on any gain realized on the sale, exchange, retirement or other taxable disposition of an exchange note unless (1) the Non-U.S. Holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year of disposition and certain other conditions are met or (2) the gain is effectively connected with the conduct by the Non-U.S. Holder of a trade or business in the United States. BACKUP WITHHOLDING AND INFORMATION REPORTING Information returns will be filed with the Internal Revenue Service in connection with payments on the exchange notes and the proceeds from a sale, exchange, retirement or other taxable disposition of the exchange notes. In order to avoid information reporting and backup withholding tax requirements, a Non-U.S. Holder of an exchange note may have to comply with certification procedures to establish that the Non-U.S. Holder is not a United States person. The certification procedures required to claim the portfolio interest exemption described under the heading "Treatment of Interest" generally will satisfy the certification requirements necessary to avoid the 28% backup withholding tax as well. The amount of any backup withholding tax withheld from a payment to a Non-U.S. Holder will be allowed as a credit against the Non-U.S. Holder's United States federal income tax liability and may entitle the holder to a refund, provided that the required information is furnished to the Internal Revenue Service. 60

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION Based on interpretations of the SEC staff in no-action letters issued to third parties, we believe that you may resell or otherwise transfer exchange notes issued in the exchange offer without further compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act if: - you acquire exchange notes in the ordinary course of your business, and - you are not engaged in, and do not intend to engage in, and have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in, a distribution of exchange notes. We believe that you may not transfer exchange notes issued in the exchange offer without further compliance with such requirements or an exemption from such requirements if you are: - our affiliate within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act, or - a broker-dealer that acquired original notes as a result of market-making or other trading activities. The information described above concerning interpretations of and positions taken by the SEC staff is not intended to constitute legal advice. Broker-dealers should consult their own legal advisors with respect to these matters. If you wish to exchange your original notes for exchange notes in the exchange offer, you will be required to make representations to us as described in "The Exchange Offer -- Procedures for Tendering" and "-- Your Representations to Us" of this prospectus and in the letter of transmittal. In addition, if a broker-dealer receives exchange notes for its own account in exchange for original notes that were acquired by it as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, it will be required to acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale by it of such exchange notes. A broker-dealer may use this prospectus, as we may amend or supplement it, in connection with these resales. We have agreed that, for a period of 180 days after the closing date of the exchange offer, we will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. We will not receive any proceeds from any sale of exchange notes by broker-dealers. Exchange notes received by broker-dealers for their own account in the exchange offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions: - in the over-the-counter market, - in negotiated transactions, - through the writing of options on the exchange notes, or - a combination of such methods of resale. The prices at which these sales occur may be: - at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, - at prices related to such prevailing market prices, or - at negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer or the purchasers of any such exchange notes. Any broker-dealer that resells exchange notes that it received for its own account in the exchange offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of exchange notes may be deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act. Any profit on any resale of exchange notes and any commission or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation. The letter of transmittal states that, by acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act. 61

LEGAL MATTERS The validity of the exchange notes being offered hereby will be passed upon for Amkor Technology, Inc. by Perkins Coie LLP, Menlo Park, California. EXPERTS The audited consolidated financial statements of Amkor Technology, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002, incorporated in this Prospectus by reference to the annual report on Form 10-K/A have been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent accountants, as indicated in their report with respect thereto. PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP did not audit the financial statements of Amkor Technology Philippines, Inc. (formerly Amkor Technology (P1/P2), Inc., which subsequently merged with Amkor Technology Philippines (P3/P4), Inc. and Anam/Amkor Precision Machine Company (Philippines), Inc. with Amkor Technology (P1/P2), Inc. as the surviving entity), a wholly owned subsidiary, referred to as ATP, which financial statements reflect total assets of 14% and 17% and operating expenses of 14%, 18% and 17% of the related consolidated totals as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 and for the each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002. The financial statements of ATP for 2002 were audited by SyCip Gorres Velayo & Co., a member practice of Ernst & Young Global, whose report thereon dated January 15, 2003 has been furnished to PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. Such financial statements have been so included in reliance on the reports of such independent accountants given on the authority of such firms as experts in auditing and accounting. The combined financial statements of Amkor Technology Philippines (P1/P2), Inc. and Amkor Technology Philippines (P3/P4), Inc. as of December 31, 2001 and for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2001 were audited by Andersen Worldwide (through its then Philippine member firm, SyCip Gorres Velayo & Co.), who prior to cessation of its operations in August 2002 had expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements in its report dated March 19, 2002. With the cessation of its operations, Andersen Worldwide can no longer consent to the use of its audit report in, or participate in the preparation of, the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. Accordingly, your ability to seek damages from Andersen Worldwide in connection with the exchange offer will be limited. 62

PART II INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS ITEM 20. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with various actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, other than an action by or in the right of the corporation, a derivative action, if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification only extends to expenses including attorneys' fees incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such actions, and the statute requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been found liable to the corporation. The statute provides that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a corporation's by-laws, disinterested director vote, stockholder vote, agreement or otherwise. Our Certificate of Incorporation provides for the indemnification of directors to the fullest extent permissible under Delaware law. Our Bylaws provide for the indemnification of officers, directors and third parties acting on behalf of Amkor if such person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in and not opposed to the best interest of Amkor, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, the indemnified party had no reason to believe his conduct was unlawful. We have entered into indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers, in addition to indemnification provided for in our Bylaws, and intend to enter into indemnification agreements with any new directors and executive officers in the future. Our certificate of incorporation also provides that we shall pay the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition, subject to the provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Such rights are not exclusive of any other right which any person may have or thereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the certificate, by-law, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. No repeal or modification of such provision will in any way diminish or adversely affect the rights of any director, officer, employee or agent of us thereunder in respect of any occurrence or matter arising before any such repeal or modification. The Delaware General Corporation Law permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability for: - any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, - acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, - payments of unlawful dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions, or - any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. Our certificate of incorporation provides that none of our directors will be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except, if required by the Delaware General Corporation Law as amended from time to time, for liability - for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, - for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, II-1

- under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which concerns unlawful payments of dividends, stock purchases or redemptions, or - for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. Neither the amendment nor repeal of such provision will eliminate or reduce the effect of such provision in respect of any matter occurring, or any cause of action, suit or claim that, but for such provision, would accrue or arise, before such amendment or repeal. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is therefore unenforceable. ITEM 21. EXHIBITS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT SCHEDULES (a) Exhibits Reference is made to the Exhibit Index on page E-1. ITEM 22. UNDERTAKINGS The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act), that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to Items 4, 10(b), 11, or 13 of this Form S-4, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement when it became effective. II-2

SECTION 2. Holders A Person is deemed to be a holder of Transfer Restricted Securities (each, a "Holder") whenever such Person owns Transfer Restricted Securities. SECTION 3. Registered Exchange Offer (a) Unless the Exchange Offer shall not be permitted by applicable federal law (after the procedures set forth in Section 6(a)(i) below have been complied with), the Company shall (i) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange Offer Registration Statement to be filed with the Commission as soon as practicable after the Closing Date, but in no event later than 120 days after the Closing Date (such 120th day being the "Filing Deadline"), (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Exchange Offer Registration Statement to become effective at the earliest possible time, but in no event later than 210 days after the Closing Date (such 210th day being the "Effectiveness Deadline"), (iii) in connection with the foregoing, (A) file all pre-effective amendments to such Exchange Offer Registration Statement as may be necessary in order to cause it to become effective, (B) file, if applicable, a post-effective amendment to such Exchange Offer Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 430A under the Act and (C) cause all necessary filings, if any, in connection with the registration and qualification of the Exchange Notes to be made under the Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as are necessary to permit Consummation of the Exchange Offer, and (iv) upon the effectiveness of such Exchange Offer Registration Statement, commence and Consummate the Exchange Offer. The Exchange Offer shall be on the appropriate form permitting (x) registration of the Exchange Notes to be offered in exchange for the Notes that are Transfer Restricted Securities and (y) resales of Exchange Notes by Broker-Dealers that tendered into the Exchange Offer Notes that such Broker-Dealer acquired for its own account as a result of market making activities or other trading activities (other than Notes acquired directly from the Company or any of its Affiliates) as contemplated by Section 3(c) below. (b) The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange Offer Registration Statement to be effective continuously, and shall keep the Exchange Offer open for a period of not less than the minimum period required under applicable federal and state securities laws to Consummate the Exchange Offer; provided, however, that in no event shall such period be less than 30 days. The Company shall cause the Exchange Offer to comply with all applicable federal and state securities laws. No securities other than the Exchange Notes shall be included in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Exchange Offer to be Consummated on the earliest practicable date after the Exchange Offer 4

Registration Statement has become effective, but in no event later than 30 Business Days thereafter (such 30th day being the "Consummation Deadline"). (c) The Company shall include a "Plan of Distribution" section in the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and indicate therein that any Broker-Dealer who holds Transfer Restricted Securities that were acquired for the account of such Broker-Dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities (other than Notes acquired directly from the Company or any Affiliate of the Company), may exchange such Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to the Exchange Offer. Such "Plan of Distribution" section shall also contain all other information with respect to such sales by such Broker-Dealers that the Commission may require in order to permit such sales pursuant thereto, but such "Plan of Distribution" shall not name any such Broker-Dealer or disclose the amount of Transfer Restricted Securities held by any such Broker-Dealer, except to the extent required by the Commission. Because such Broker-Dealer may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Act and must, therefore, deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Act in connection with its initial sale of any Exchange Notes received by such Broker-Dealer in the Exchange Offer, the Company shall permit the use of the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement by such Broker-Dealer to satisfy such prospectus delivery requirement. To the extent necessary to ensure that the prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is available for resales of Exchange Notes by Broker-Dealers, the Company agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement continuously effective, supplemented, amended and current as required by and subject to the provisions of Section 6(a) and (c) hereof and in conformity with the requirements of this Agreement, the Act and the policies, rules and regulations of the Commission as announced from time to time, for a period of 180 days from the Consummation Deadline or such shorter period as will terminate when all Transfer Restricted Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold pursuant thereto. The Company shall provide sufficient copies of the latest version of such Prospectus to such Broker-Dealers, promptly upon request, and in no event later than one day after such request, at any time during such period. SECTION 4. Shelf Registration (a) Shelf Registration. If (i) the Exchange Offer is not permitted by applicable law or Commission policy after the Company has complied with the procedures set forth in Section 6(a)(i) below or (ii) any Holder of Notes which are Transfer Restricted Securities shall notify the Company prior to the 20th Business Day following the Consummation Deadline that (A) such Holder is prohibited by law or Commission policy from participating in the Exchange Offer, (B) such Holder may not resell the Exchange Notes acquired by it in the Exchange Offer to the public without delivering a prospectus, and the Prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not appropriate or available for such resales by such Holder, or (C) such Holder is a Broker-Dealer and holds Notes acquired directly from the Company or any of the Company's affiliates, then the Company shall: (x) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be filed, on or prior to the 60th day after the date on which the Company receives the notice specified in clause (a)(ii) above, a shelf registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 under the Act (which may be an 5

amendment to the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (the "Shelf Registration Statement")), relating to all Transfer Restricted Securities, and (y) shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to become effective on or prior to the 120th day after the date on which the Company receives notice under (x) above (such day the "Effectiveness Deadline"). If, after the Company has filed an Exchange Offer Registration Statement that satisfies the requirements of Section 3(a) above, the Company is required to file and make effective a Shelf Registration Statement solely because the Exchange Offer is not permitted under applicable federal law (i.e., clause (a)(i) above), then the filing of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements of clause (x) above; provided that, in such event, the Company shall remain obligated to meet the Effectiveness Deadline set forth in clause (y) above. To the extent necessary to ensure that the Shelf Registration Statement is available for resales of Transfer Restricted Securities by the Holders thereof entitled to the benefit of this Section 4(a) and the other securities required to be registered therein pursuant to Section 6(b)(ii) hereof, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep any Shelf Registration Statement required by this Section 4(a) continuously effective, supplemented, amended and current as required by and subject to the provisions of Sections 6(b) and (c) hereof and in conformity with the requirements of this Agreement, the Act and the policies, rules and regulations of the Commission as announced from time to time, for a period of at least two years following the Closing Date, or such shorter period as will terminate when all Transfer Restricted Securities covered by such Shelf Registration Statement have been sold pursuant thereto. (b) Provision by Holders of Certain Information in Connection with the Shelf Registration Statement. No Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities may include any of its Transfer Restricted Securities in any Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement unless and until such Holder furnishes to the Company in writing, within 10 days after receipt of a request therefor, the information specified in Item 507 or 508 of Regulation S-K, as applicable, of the Act for use in connection with any Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus included therein. No Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities shall be entitled to liquidated damages pursuant to Section 5 hereof unless and until such Holder shall have provided all such information. Each selling Holder agrees to promptly furnish additional information required to be disclosed in order to make the information previously furnished to the Company by such Holder not materially misleading. (c) Prohibitions Against Sales. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4 or in Section 3(c), but subject to compliance with Section 5, the Company may, by delivering written notice to the Holders, prohibit offers and sales of Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement at any time if (A)(i) the Company is in possession of material non-public information relating to the Company, (ii) the Company determines (based on advice of counsel) that such prohibition is necessary in order to avoid a requirement to disclose such material non-public information to the public and (iii) the Company determines in good faith that public disclosure of such material non-public information would not be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders or (B)(i) the Company has made a public announcement relating to an acquisition or business combination transaction including the Company and/or one or more of its subsidiaries that 6

is material to the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole and (ii) the Company determines in good faith that (x) offers and sales of Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement prior to the consummation of such transaction (or such earlier date as the Company shall determine) is not in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders or (y) it would be impracticable at the time to obtain any financial statements relating to such acquisition or business combination transaction that would be required to be set forth in the Shelf Registration; provided, however, that upon (i) the public disclosure by the Company of the material non-public information described in clause (A) of this paragraph or (ii) the consummation, abandonment or termination of, or the availability of the required financial statements with respect to, a transaction described in clause (B) of this paragraph, the suspension of the use of the Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this Section 4(c) shall cease and the Company shall promptly comply with Section 6(c)(ii) hereof and notify Holders that dispositions of Transfer Restricted Securities may be resumed. SECTION 5. Liquidated Damages If (i) any Registration Statement required by this Agreement is not filed with the Commission on or prior to the applicable Filing Deadline set forth in Section 3(a) or 4(a), as the case may be, (ii) any such Registration Statement has not been declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the applicable Effectiveness Deadline set forth in Section 3(a) or 4(a), as the case may be, (iii) the Exchange Offer has not been Consummated on or prior to the Consummation Deadline or (iv) any Registration Statement required by this Agreement is filed and declared effective but shall thereafter cease to be effective or fail to be usable for its intended purpose without being succeeded reasonably promptly by a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement that cures such failure and that is itself declared effective reasonably promptly (including as a result of a prohibition against sales of Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to Section 4(c) hereof at any time for a period of time which shall exceed 30 days in the aggregate during any 3-month period or 90 days in the aggregate during any 365-day period) (each such event referred to in clauses (i) through (iv), a "Registration Default"), then the Company hereby jointly and severally agrees to pay to each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities affected thereby liquidated damages in an amount equal to 0.25% per annum in principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities held by such Holder for each week or portion thereof that the Registration Default continues for the first 90-day period immediately following the occurrence of such Registration Default. The amount of the liquidated damages shall increase by 0.25% per annum in principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities with respect to each subsequent 90-day period until all Registration Defaults have been cured, up to a maximum amount of liquidated damages of 1.00% per annum in principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities; provided that the Company shall in no event be required to pay liquidated damages for more than one Registration Default at any given time. If, after the cure of all Registration Defaults then in effect, there is a subsequent Registration Default, the rate of Additional Interest for such subsequent Registration Default shall initially be 0.25%, regardless of the Additional Interest rate in effect with respect to any prior Registration Default at the time of the cure of such Registration Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, (1) upon filing of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (and/or, if applicable, the Shelf Registration Statement), in the case of (i) above, (2) upon the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement (and/or, if applicable, the Shelf Registration Statement), in the case of (ii) above, (3) upon Consummation of the Exchange Offer, in the case of (iii) above, or (4) upon the filing of a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or an additional Registration Statement that causes the Exchange Offer 7

Registration Statement (and/or, if applicable, the Shelf Registration Statement) to again be declared effective or made usable in the case of (iv) above, the liquidated damages payable with respect to the Transfer Restricted Securities as a result of such clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv), as applicable, shall cease. All accrued liquidated damages shall be paid to the Holders entitled thereto, in the manner provided for the payment of interest in the Indenture, on each Interest Payment Date, as more fully set forth in the Indenture and the Notes. Notwithstanding the fact that any securities for which liquidated damages are due cease to be Transfer Restricted Securities, all obligations of the Company to pay liquidated damages with respect to securities shall survive until such time as such obligations with respect to such securities shall have been satisfied in full. SECTION 6. Registration Procedures (a) Exchange Offer Registration Statement. In connection with the Exchange Offer, the Company shall (x) comply with all applicable provisions of Section 6(c) below, (y) use commercially reasonable efforts to effect such exchange and to permit the resale of Exchange Notes by Broker-Dealers that tendered in the Exchange Offer Notes that such Broker-Dealer acquired for its own account as a result of its market making activities or other trading activities (other than Notes acquired directly from the Company or any of its Affiliates) being sold in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof, and (z) comply with all of the following provisions: (i) If, following the date hereof there has been announced a change in Commission policy with respect to exchange offers such as the Exchange Offer, that in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Company raises a substantial question as to whether the Exchange Offer is permitted by applicable federal law, if and to the extent reasonable under the circumstances, the Company hereby agrees to seek a no-action letter or other favorable decision from the Commission allowing the Company to Consummate an Exchange Offer for such Transfer Restricted Securities. If and to the extent reasonable under the circumstances, the Company hereby agrees to pursue the issuance of such a decision to the Commission staff level. (ii) As a condition to its participation in the Exchange Offer, each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities (including, without limitation, any Holder who is a Broker Dealer) shall furnish, upon the request of the Company, prior to the Consummation of the Exchange Offer, a written representation to the Company (which may be contained in the letter of transmittal contemplated by the Exchange Offer Registration Statement) to the effect that (A) it is not an Affiliate of the Company, (B) it is not engaged in, and does not intend to engage in, and has no arrangement or understanding with any Person to participate in, a distribution of the Exchange Notes to be issued in the Exchange Offer and (C) it is acquiring the Exchange Notes in its ordinary course of business. As a condition to its participation in the Exchange Offer each Holder that is a Broker-Dealer using the Exchange Offer to participate in a distribution of the Exchange Notes shall acknowledge and agree that, if the resales are of Exchange Notes obtained by such Holder in exchange for Notes acquired directly from the Company or an Affiliate thereof, it (1) could not, under Commission policy as in effect on the date of this Agreement, rely on the position of the Commission enunciated in Morgan Stanley and Co., Inc. (available June 5, 1991) and Exxon Capital Holdings 8

Corporation (available May 13, 1988), as interpreted in the Commission's letter to Shearman & Sterling dated July 2, 1993, and similar no-action letters (including, if applicable, any no-action letter obtained pursuant to clause (i) above), and (2) must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Act in connection with a secondary resale transaction and that such a secondary resale transaction must be covered by an effective registration statement containing the selling security holder information required by Item 507 or 508, as applicable, of Regulation S-K. (iii) Prior to effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Company shall provide a supplemental letter to the Commission (A) stating that the Company is registering the Exchange Offer in reliance on the position of the Commission enunciated in Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation (available May 13, 1988), Morgan Stanley and Co., Inc. (available June 5, 1991) as interpreted in the Commission's letter to Shearman & Sterling dated July 2, 1993, and, if applicable, any no-action letter obtained pursuant to clause (i) above, (B) including a representation that the Company has not entered into any arrangement or understanding with any Person to distribute the Exchange Notes to be received in the Exchange Offer and that, to the best of the Company's information and belief, each Holder participating in the Exchange Offer is acquiring the Exchange Notes in its ordinary course of business and has no arrangement or understanding with any Person to participate in the distribution of the Exchange Notes received in the Exchange Offer and (C) any other undertaking or representation required by the Commission as set forth in any no-action letter obtained pursuant to clause (i) above, if applicable. (b) Shelf Registration Statement. In connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall: (i) comply with all the provisions of Section 6(c) below and use commercially reasonable efforts to effect such registration to permit the sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities being sold in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof (as indicated in the information furnished to the Company pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof), and pursuant thereto the Company will prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement relating to the registration on any appropriate form under the Act, which form shall be available for the sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution thereof within the time periods and otherwise in accordance with the provisions hereof, and (ii) issue, upon the request of any Holder or purchaser of Notes covered by any Shelf Registration Statement contemplated by this Agreement, Exchange Notes having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Notes sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement and surrendered to the Company for cancellation; the Company shall register Exchange Notes on the Shelf Registration Statement for this purpose and issue the Exchange Notes to the purchaser(s) of securities subject to the Shelf Registration Statement in the names as such purchaser(s) shall designate. (c) General Provisions. In connection with any Registration Statement and any related Prospectus required by this Agreement, the Company shall: 9

(i) use commercially reasonable efforts to keep such Registration Statement continuously effective and provide all requisite financial statements for the period specified in Section 3 or 4 of this Agreement, as applicable. Upon the occurrence of any event subject to Section 4(c) above that would cause any such Registration Statement or the Prospectus contained therein (A) to contain an untrue statement of material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (B) not to be effective and usable for resale of Transfer Restricted Securities during the period required by this Agreement, the Company shall file promptly an appropriate amendment to such Registration Statement curing such defect, and, if Commission review is required, use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such amendment to be declared effective as soon as practicable. (ii) subject to Section 4(c) above, prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and post-effective amendments to the applicable Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective for the applicable period set forth in Section 3 or 4 hereof, as the case may be; cause the Prospectus to be supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and as so supplemented to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Act, and to comply fully with Rules 424, 430A and 462, as applicable, under the Act in a timely manner; and comply with the provisions of the Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such Registration Statement during the applicable period in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution by the sellers thereof set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus; (iii) advise each Holder that is a Broker-Dealer and each Initial Purchaser who is required to deliver a prospectus in connection with sales or market making activities (an "Affiliated Market Maker") to the extent the Company is aware of the same, promptly and, if requested by such Person, confirm such advice in writing, (A) when the Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and, with respect to any applicable Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto, when the same has become effective, (B) of any request by the Commission for amendments to the Registration Statement or amendments or supplements to the Prospectus or for additional information relating thereto, (C) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement under the Act or of the suspension by any state securities commission of the qualification of the Transfer Restricted Securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation of any proceeding for any of the preceding purposes, (D) of the existence of any fact or the happening of any event that makes any statement of a material fact made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, any amendment or supplement thereto or any document incorporated by reference therein untrue, or that requires the making of any additions to or changes in the Registration Statement in order to make the statements therein not misleading, or that requires the making of any additions to or changes in the Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If at any time the Commission shall issue any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or any state securities commission or other regulatory authority shall issue an order suspending the qualification or exemption from qualification of the Transfer Restricted Securities under state securities or Blue Sky laws, the Company shall use commercially 10

reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal or lifting of such order at the earliest possible time; (iv) subject to Section 6(c)(i), if any fact or event contemplated by Section 6(c)(iii)(D) above shall exist or have occurred, prepare a supplement or post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or related Prospectus or any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of Transfer Restricted Securities, the Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; (v) upon request, furnish to each Holder and each Affiliated Market Maker in connection with such exchange or sale, if any, before filing with the Commission, copies of any Registration Statement or any Prospectus included therein or any amendments or supplements to any such Registration Statement or Prospectus, which documents will be subject to the review and comment of such Persons in connection with such sale, if any, for a period of at least five Business Days, and the Company will not file any such Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to any such Registration Statement or Prospectus to which such Persons shall reasonably object within five Business Days after the receipt thereof; (vi) make available, at reasonable times, for inspection by each Holder and each Affiliated Market Maker and any attorney or accountant retained by such Persons, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents of the Company and cause the Company's officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such Persons, attorney or accountant in connection with such Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto subsequent to the filing thereof and prior to its effectiveness; (vii) if requested by any Holders in connection with such exchange or sale or any Affiliated Market Maker, promptly include in any Registration Statement or Prospectus, pursuant to a supplement or post-effective amendment if necessary, such information as such Persons may reasonably request to have included therein relating to the "Plan of Distribution" of the Transfer Restricted Securities and the use of the Registration Statement or Prospectus for market making activities; and make all required filings of such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment as soon as practicable after the Company is notified of the matters to be included in such Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment; (viii) upon the request furnish to such Holder in connection with such exchange or sale and each Affiliated Market Maker, without charge, at least one copy of the Registration Statement, as first filed with the Commission, and of each amendment thereto, including all documents incorporated by reference therein and all exhibits (including exhibits incorporated therein by reference); (ix) deliver to each Holder and each Affiliated Market Maker without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus (including each preliminary prospectus) and any amendment 11

or supplement thereto as such Persons reasonably may request; the Company hereby consents to the use (in accordance with law) of the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto by each selling Person in connection with the offering and the sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto and all market making activities of such Affiliated Market Maker, as the case may be; (x) upon the request of any Holder who is a Broker-Dealer or any Affiliated Market Maker, make representations and warranties as reasonably requested and take all such other actions as reasonably requested in connection therewith in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of the Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to any applicable Registration Statement contemplated by this Agreement as may be reasonably requested by any such Holder or Affiliated Market Maker in connection with any sale or resale pursuant to any applicable Registration Statement. In connection with the exchange or disposition of Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement, the Company shall: (A) upon request of any Holder, furnish (or in the case of paragraphs (2) and (3), use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be furnished) to each Person, upon Consummation of the Exchange Offer or upon the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be: (1) a certificate, dated such date, signed on behalf of the Company by (x) the President or any Vice President and (y) a principal financial or accounting officer of the Company, confirming, as of the date thereof, the matters set forth in Sections 6(k)(iii) and (iv), 6(m) and 6(p) of the Purchase Agreement and such other similar matters as such Person may reasonably request; (2) an opinion, dated the date of Consummation of the Exchange Offer or the date of effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, of counsel for the Company covering matters similar to those set forth in the relevant paragraphs of Section 6(d) and 6(e) of the Purchase Agreement, and in any event including a statement to the effect that such counsel has participated in conferences with officers and other representatives of the Company, representatives of the independent certified public accountants of the Company at which the contents of the applicable Registration Statement were discussed and, although such counsel is not passing upon and assumes no responsibility for, the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the applicable Registration Statement (except as indicated above), on the basis of the foregoing, no facts came to such counsel's attention which led such counsel to believe that the applicable Registration Statement, at the time such Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto became effective and, in the case of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, as of the date of Consummation of the Exchange Offer, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or that the Prospectus contained in such Registration Statement as of its date 12

and, in the case of the opinion dated the date of Consummation of the Exchange Offer, as of the date of Consummation, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Without limiting the foregoing, such counsel may state further that such counsel assumes no responsibility for, and has not independently verified, the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the financial statements and schedules and other financial data included in any Registration Statement contemplated by this Agreement or the related Prospectus; and (3) a customary comfort letter, dated the date of Consummation of the Exchange Offer, or as of the date of effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, from the Company's independent accountants, in the customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in comfort letters to underwriters in connection with underwritten offerings, and affirming the matters set forth in the comfort letters delivered pursuant to Sections 6(i) and (j) of the Purchase Agreement; and (B) deliver such other documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the selling Holders to evidence compliance with the matters covered in clause (A) above and with any customary conditions contained in any agreement entered into by the Company pursuant to this clause (x); (xi) prior to any public offering of Transfer Restricted Securities, cooperate with the selling Holders and their counsel in connection with the registration and qualification of the Transfer Restricted Securities under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as the selling Holders may request and do any and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by the applicable Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to register or qualify as a foreign corporation where it is not now so qualified or to take any action that would subject it to the service of process in suits or to taxation, other than as to matters and transactions relating to the Registration Statement, in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject; (xii) in connection with any sale of Transfer Restricted Securities that will result in such securities no longer being Transfer Restricted Securities, cooperate with the Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Transfer Restricted Securities to be sold and not bearing any restrictive legends; and to register such Transfer Restricted Securities in such denominations and such names as the selling Holders may request at least two Business Days prior to such sale of Transfer Restricted Securities; (xiii) provide a CUSIP number for all Transfer Restricted Securities not later than the effective date of a Registration Statement covering such Transfer Restricted Securities and provide the Trustee under the Indenture with printed certificates for the Transfer 13

Restricted Securities which are in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company; (xiv) otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, and make generally available to its security holders with regard to any applicable Registration Statement, as soon as practicable, a consolidated earnings statement meeting the requirements of Rule 158 (which need not be audited) covering a twelve-month period beginning after the effective date of the Registration Statement (as such term is defined in paragraph (c) of Rule 158 under the Act); (xv) cause the Indenture to be qualified under the TIA not later than the effective date of the first Registration Statement required by this Agreement and, in connection therewith, cooperate with the Trustee and the Holders to effect such changes to the Indenture as may be required for such Indenture to be so qualified in accordance with the terms of the TIA; and execute and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Trustee to execute, all documents that may be required to effect such changes and all other forms and documents required to be filed with the Commission to enable such Indenture to be so qualified in a timely manner; and (xvi) provide promptly to each Holder and Affiliated Market Maker, upon request, each document filed with the Commission pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act. (d) Restrictions on Holders. Each Holder agrees by acquisition of a Transfer Restricted Security and each Affiliated Market Maker agrees that, upon receipt of the notice referred to in Section 4(c) or 6(c)(iii)(C) or any notice from the Company of the existence of any fact of the kind described in Section 6(c)(iii)(D) hereof (in each case, a "Suspension Notice"), such Person will forthwith discontinue disposition of Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to the applicable Registration Statement until (i)(A) such Person has received copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 6(c)(iv) hereof, or (B) such Person is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated by reference in the Prospectus (in each case, the "Recommencement Date"). Each Person receiving a Suspension Notice hereby agrees that it will either (ii)(A) destroy any Prospectuses, other than permanent file copies, then in such Person's possession which have been replaced by the Company with more recently dated Prospectuses or (B) deliver to the Company (at the Company's expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies, then in such Person's possession of the Prospectus covering such Transfer Restricted Securities that was current at the time of receipt of the Suspension Notice. The time period regarding the effectiveness of such Registration Statement set forth in Section 3 or 4 hereof, as applicable, shall be extended by a number of days equal to the number of days in the period from and including the date of delivery of the Suspension Notice to the date of delivery of the Recommencement Date. SECTION 7. Registration Expenses (a) All expenses incident to the Company's performance of or compliance with this Agreement will be borne by the Company, regardless of whether a Registration Statement becomes effective, including without limitation: (i) all registration and filing fees and expenses; (ii) all fees 14

and expenses of compliance with federal securities and state Blue Sky or securities laws; (iii) all expenses of printing (including printing certificates for the Exchange Notes to be issued in the Exchange Offer and printing of Prospectuses whether for exchanges, sales, market making or otherwise), messenger and delivery services and telephone; (iv) all fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company; (v) all application and filing fees in connection with listing the Exchange Notes on a national securities exchange or automated quotation system pursuant to the requirements hereof; and (vi) all fees and disbursements of independent certified public accountants of the Company (including the expenses of any special audit and comfort letters required by or incident to such performance). The Company will, in any event, bear its internal expenses (including, without limitation, all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties), the expenses of any annual audit and the fees and expenses of any Person, including special experts, retained by the Company. (b) In connection with any Registration Statement required by this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and the Shelf Registration Statement), the Company will reimburse the Initial Purchasers and the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities who are tendering Notes in the Exchange Offer and/or selling or reselling Notes or Exchange Notes pursuant to the "Plan of Distribution" contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or the Shelf Registration Statement, as applicable, for the reasonable fees and disbursements of not more than one counsel, who shall be Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP, unless another firm shall be chosen by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Transfer Restricted Securities for whose benefit such Registration Statement is being prepared. SECTION 8. Indemnification (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Holder, its directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents and each Person, if any, who controls such Holder (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) (collectively, the "Holder Indemnified Parties") against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof, to which that Holder Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage or liability or action arises out of or is based upon (i)(A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus or Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) provided by the Company to any Holder or any prospective purchaser of Exchange Notes or registered Notes, or (B) the omission or alleged omission to state therein (or in any amendment or supplement thereto) a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and shall reimburse each Holder Indemnified Party promptly upon demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by that Holder Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or preparing to defend or defending against or appearing as a third party witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of or is based upon (ii)(A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or (B) omission or alleged omission from any Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus or Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) provided by the Company to any Holder or any prospective purchaser of Exchange Notes or registered Notes in 15

reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by and of the Holders specifically for use therein. This indemnity agreement is not exclusive and will be in addition to any liability which the Company might otherwise have and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available at law or in equity to each Holder Indemnified Party. (b) Each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities agrees, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its officers, employees, representatives, agents, directors and each person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) the Company (collectively the "Company Indemnified Parties" and each a "Company Indemnified Party") against any loss, claim, damage or liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof, to which the Company Indemnified Parties may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of or is based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus or Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) provided by the Company to any Holder or any prospective purchaser of Exchange Notes or registered Notes, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein (or in any amendment or supplement thereto) a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Holder specifically for use therein, and shall reimburse the Company Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such parties in connection with investigating or preparing to defend or defending against or appearing as third party witness in connection with any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action as such expenses are incurred. In no event shall any Holder, its directors, officers, employees, representatives and agents or any Person who controls such Holder be liable or responsible for any amount in excess of the amount by which the total amount received by such Holder with respect to its sale of Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds (i) the amount paid by such Holder for such Transfer Restricted Securities and (ii) the amount of any damages that such Holder, its directors, officers or any Person who controls such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. (c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, the indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section 8 except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure; and, provided, further, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 8. If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs 16

of investigation; provided, however, that any indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the indemnifying party in writing, (ii) such indemnified party shall have been advised by such counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party and in the reasonable judgment of such counsel it is advisable for such indemnified party to employ separate counsel or (iii) the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense of such action and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, in which case, if such indemnified party notifies the indemnifying party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party, it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such indemnified parties, which firm shall be designated in writing by a majority of the Holders, if the indemnified parties under this Section 8 consist of any Holder Indemnified Parties, or by the Company if the indemnified parties under this Section 8 consist of any Company Indemnified Parties. Each indemnified party, as a condition of the indemnity agreements contained in Sections 8(a) and (b), shall use all reasonable efforts to cooperate with the indemnifying party in the defense of any such action or claim. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with its written consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 8(a) or 8(b), then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, (i)(A) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the Holder, on the other, on their sale of Transfer Restricted Securities, or (B) if the allocation provided by clause (i)(A) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i)(A) above but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and of the Holder, on the other, with respect to the statements or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Holder on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 8(d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Holders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or 17

action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 8(d) shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 8(d), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8(d), (ii)(A) no Holder, its directors, officers, representatives or agents or any Person, if any, who controls such Holder shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total received by such Holder with respect to the sale of Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds (x) the amount paid by such Holder for such Transfer Restricted Securities and (y) the amount of any damages which such Holder has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission, and (B) any amount the Company would otherwise be required to contribute shall be reduced by the amount the Company has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11 (f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Holders' obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8(d) are several in proportion to the respective principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities held by each Holder hereunder and not joint. (e) The Company agrees that the indemnity and contribution provisions of this Section 8 shall apply to Affiliated Market Makers to the same extent, on the same conditions, as it applies to Holders. SECTION 9. Rule 144A and Rule 144 The Company agrees with each Holder, for so long as any Transfer Restricted Securities remain outstanding and during any period in which the Company (i) is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, to make available, upon request of any Holder, to such Holder or beneficial owner of Transfer Restricted Securities in connection with any sale thereof and any prospective purchaser of such Transfer Restricted Securities designated by such Holder or beneficial owner, the information required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Act in order to permit resales of such Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to Rule 144A, and (ii) is subject to Section 13 or 15 (d) of the Exchange Act, to make all filings required thereby in a timely manner in order to permit resales of such Transfer Restricted Securities pursuant to Rule 144. SECTION 10. Miscellaneous (a) Remedies. The Company acknowledges and agrees that any failure by the Company to comply with its obligations under Sections 3 and 4 hereof may result in material irreparable injury to the Initial Purchasers or the Holders or Affiliated Market Makers for which there is no adequate remedy at law, that it will not be possible to measure damages for such injuries precisely and that, in the event of any such failure, the Initial Purchasers or any Holders or Affiliated Market Makers may obtain such relief as may be required to specifically enforce the Company's obligations under Sections 3 and 4 hereof. The Company further agrees to waive the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate. (b) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company will not, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. The rights 18

granted to the Holders hereunder do not in any way conflict with and are not inconsistent with the rights granted to the holders of the Company's securities under any agreement in effect on the date hereof. (c) Amendments and Waivers. The provisions of this Agreement may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to or departures from the provisions hereof may not be given unless (i) in the case of Section 5 hereof and this Section 10(c)(i), the Company has obtained the written consent of Holders of all outstanding Transfer Restricted Securities and (ii) in the case of all other provisions hereof, the Company has obtained the written consent of Holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities (excluding Transfer Restricted Securities held by the Company or its Affiliates). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a waiver or consent to departure from the provisions hereof that relates exclusively to the rights of Holders whose Transfer Restricted Securities are being tendered pursuant to the Exchange Offer, and that does not affect directly or indirectly the rights of other Holders whose Transfer Restricted Securities are not being tendered pursuant to such Exchange Offer, may be given by the Holders of a majority of the outstanding principal amount of Transfer Restricted Securities subject to such Exchange Offer. (d) Third Party Beneficiary. The Holders and Affiliated Market Makers shall be third party beneficiaries to the agreements made hereunder between the Company, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, and shall have the right to enforce such agreements directly to the extent they may deem such enforcement necessary or advisable to protect its rights or the rights of Holders and Affiliated Market Makers hereunder. (e) Notices. All notices and other communications provided for or permitted hereunder shall be made in writing by hand-delivery, first-class mail (registered or certified, return receipt requested), telex, telecopier, or air courier guaranteeing overnight delivery: (i) if to a Holder, at the address set forth on the records of the Registrar under the Indenture, with a copy to the Registrar under the Indenture; and (ii) if to the Company: Amkor Technology, Inc. 1345 Enterprise Drive West Chester, Pennsylvania 19380 Telecopier No.: 610-431-3990 Attention: General Counsel With a copy to: Wilson, Sonsini, Goodrich & Rosati 650 Page Mill Road Palo Alto, CA 94304 Telecopier No.: (650) 493-6811 Attention: Larry Sonsini, Esq. 19

(f) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and assigns of each of the parties, including without limitation and without the need for an express assignment, subsequent Holders; provided, that nothing herein shall be deemed to permit any assignment, transfer or other disposition of Transfer Restricted Securities in violation of the terms hereof or of the Purchase Agreement or the Indenture. If any transferee of any Holder shall acquire Transfer Restricted Securities in any manner, whether by operation of law or otherwise, such Transfer Restricted Securities shall be held subject to all of the terms of this Agreement, and by taking and holding such Transfer Restricted Securities such Person shall be conclusively deemed to have agreed to be bound by and to perform all of the terms and provisions of this Agreement, including the restrictions on resale set forth in this Agreement and, if applicable, the Purchase Agreement, and such Person shall be entitled to receive the benefits hereof.

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated. 1. Interest. Amkor Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 7.75% per annum from May 8, 2003 until maturity. The Company will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each an "Interest Payment Date"). Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided, further, that the first Interest Payment Date shall be November 15, 2003. The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue principal and premium, if any, from time to time on demand at a rate that is 1% per annum in excess of the rate then in effect; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 2. Method of Payment. The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the Persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the May 1 or November 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.12 of the Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. The Notes will be payable as to principal and premium, if any, and interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose within or without the City and State of New York, or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders at their addresses set forth in the register of Holders, and provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest and premium on, all Global Notes and all other Notes the Holders of which shall have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent. Such payment shall be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. 3. Paying Agent and Registrar. Initially, U.S. Bank National Association, the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

4. Indenture. The Company issued the Notes under an Indenture dated as of May 8, 2003 ("Indenture") between the Company and the Trustee. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S. Code Sections 77aaa-77bbbb). The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the indenture shall govern and be controlling. The Notes are obligations of the Company limited to $425 million in aggregate principal amount. 5. Optional Redemption. The Notes will not be redeemable at the option of the Company prior to May 15, 2008. Starting on that date, the Company may redeem all or any portion of the Notes, at once or over time, after giving the required notice as provided in this Article 3. The Notes may be redeemed at the redemption prices set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date). The following prices are for Notes redeemed during the 12-month period commencing on May 15 of the years set forth below, and are expressed as percentages of principal amount: Redemption Year Price --------------- ----- 2008............................................ 103.875% 2009............................................ 102.583% 2010............................................ 101.292% 2011 and thereafter............................. 100.000% 6. No Mandatory Redemption. Except as set forth in paragraph 7 below, the Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption payments with respect to the Notes. 7. Repurchase at Option of Holder. (a) If there is a Change of Control, the Company shall be required to make an offer (a "Change of Control Offer") to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of each Holder's Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of purchase (the "Change of Control Payment"). Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Company shall mail a notice to each Holder setting forth the procedures governing the Change of Control Offer as required by the Indenture. (b) If the Company or a Subsidiary consummates any Asset Sales, within five days of each date on which the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10 million, the Company shall commence an offer to all Holders of Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes containing provisions similar to Section 4.10 of the Indenture (as "Asset Sale Offer") pursuant to Section 3.09 of the Indenture to purchase the maximum principal amount of Notes and such pari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. To the extent that the aggregate amount of Notes and such pari passu Indebtedness tendered pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company (or such Subsidiary) may use such deficiency for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes surrendered by Holders thereof plus the amount of any pari passu Indebtedness surrendered by the

holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis. Holders of Notes that are the subject of an offer to purchase will receive an Asset Sale Offer from the Company prior to any related purchase date and may elect to have such Notes purchased by completing the form entitled "Option of Holder to Elect Purchase" on the reverse of the Notes. 8. Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. The transfer of Notes may be registered and Notes may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date. 9. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes. 10. Amendment, Supplement and Waiver. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture, the Note Guarantees or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes voting as a single class, and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture, the Note Guarantees or the Notes may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes voting as a single class. Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture, the Note Guarantees or the Notes may be amended or supplemented to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, to provide for the assumption of the Company's or Guarantor's obligations to Holders of the Notes in case of a merger or consolidation, to make any change that would provide any additional rights or benefits to the Holders of the Notes or that does not adversely affect the legal rights under the Indenture of any such Holder, to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act or to allow any Guarantor to execute a supplemental indenture to the Indenture and/or a Note Guarantee with respect to the Notes. 11. Defaults and Remedies. Events of Default include: (i) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on the Notes; (ii) default in payment when due of principal of or premium, if any, on the Notes when the same becomes due and payable at maturity, upon redemption (including in connection with an offer to purchase) or otherwise, (iii) failure by the Company to comply with Section 4.10 or 4.14 of the Indenture; (iv) failure by the Company for 60 days after notice to the Company by the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding voting as a single class to comply with certain other agreements in the Indenture or the Notes; (v) default under certain other agreements relating to Indebtedness of the Company which default is caused by a failure to pay principal of such Indebtedness at the express maturity thereof or results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its express maturity; (vi) certain final judgments for the payment of money that remain undischarged for a period of 60 days; and (vii) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company or any of its Significant Subsidiaries. If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all the Notes to be due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable without further action or notice. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of

the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of Default (except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of interest on, or the principal of, the Notes. The Company is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding compliance with the Indenture, and the Company is required upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such Default or Event of Default. 12. DESIGNATED SENIOR DEBT. This Note shall be "Designated Senior Debt" for purposes of the indentures governing the Company's 5.75% convertible subordinated notes due 2006, 5.00% convertible subordinated notes due 2007 and the Senior Subordinated Notes. 13. GOVERNING LAW. THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN AND BE USED TO CONSTRUE THIS INDENTURE, THE NOTES AND THE NOTE GUARANTEES WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY. 14. Trustee Dealings with Company. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not the Trustee. 15. No Recourse Against Others. A director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder, of the Company, as such, shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes. 16. Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent. 17. Abbreviations. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act). 18. CUSIP Numbers. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee may use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

Exhibit 5.1 [Letterhead of Perkins Coie LLP] July 10, 2003 Amkor Technology, Inc. 1345 Enterprise Drive West Chester, PA 19380 RE: EXCHANGE OFFER RELATING TO 7.75% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2013 Ladies and Gentlemen: We have acted as counsel to you in connection with certain proceedings related to the offer by Amkor Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), to exchange its 7.75% Senior Notes Due 2013 (the "Exchange Notes"), which are being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the "Registration Statement"), for an equal principal amount at maturity of its outstanding 7.75% Senior Notes Due 2013 (the "Original Notes"). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Registration Statement. In the course of our representation as described above, we have examined, among other things, the Indenture dated as of May 8, 2003 (the "Indenture"), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the "Trustee"). We have also examined originals or photocopies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of all such corporate books and records of the Company and such other documents, records, certificates or other instruments as we have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinions hereinafter set forth. Based on the foregoing, and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications set forth herein, we are of the opinion that when (i) the Registration Statement has become effective under the Act and the Indenture has been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, and (ii) the Exchange Notes have been duly executed, authenticated and delivered in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture and issued in exchange for Original Notes pursuant to, and accordance with the terms of, the Exchange Offer as contemplated in the Registration Statement, the Exchange Notes will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the

The terms of the Original Notes and the Exchange Notes are described in the prospectus of the Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on the date hereof, under the Securities Act. Such Registration Statement, as amended or supplemented, is hereinafter referred to as the "Registration Statement." The terms of the Exchange Offer, which are set forth in the prospectus of the Registration Statement, are incorporated herein by reference. You have requested our opinion regarding the anticipated material United States federal income tax consequences of the Exchange Offer. In formulating our opinion, we have examined the Registration Statement and such certificates, records and other documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinion set forth below. In our examination of such material, we have not conducted an independent investigation of any of the facts set forth in the Registration Statement, certificates, records and other documents. Consequently, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to all authentic original documents of all copies of documents submitted to us.

July 10, 2003 Page 2 In addition, our opinion herein is based on, as of the date hereof, the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, Treasury Regulations promulgated or proposed thereunder, current positions of the Internal Revenue Service contained in published revenue rulings, revenue procedures and announcements, pertinent judicial authorities and other applicable authorities, all of which are subject to change either prospectively or retroactively. A change in any of the materials or authorities upon which our opinion is based could affect our conclusions stated herein. Our opinion relates only to the federal income tax laws of the United States, and we express no opinion with respect to other federal laws or with respect to the laws of any other jurisdiction. Further, we express no opinion concerning any tax consequences except as expressly set forth in the Registration Statement under the heading "UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS." Based upon the foregoing and subject to the qualifications set forth herein, we are of the opinion that under current United States federal income tax law, the discussion set forth in the Registration Statement under the heading "UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS," to the extent it constitutes summaries of legal matters or legal conclusions, is a fair and accurate summary of the material United States federal income tax consequences relating to the exchange of the Original Notes for Exchange Notes in the Exchange Offer and the ownership and disposition of the Exchange Notes. This opinion is expressed as of the date hereof, and we disclaim any undertaking to advise you of any subsequent changes of the facts stated or assumed herein or any subsequent changes in applicable law. Further, this opinion is based on the accuracy of the facts and the representations set forth in the Registration Statement. In the event any one of the facts, representations or assumptions upon which we have relied to issue this opinion is incorrect, our opinion might be adversely affected and may not be relied upon. In addition, there can be no assurances that the Internal Revenue Service will not assert contrary positions. We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not hereby admit that we come within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, nor do we admit that we are experts with respect to any part of such Registration Statement within the

SIGNATURES MUST BE PROVIDED BELOW PLEASE READ THE ACCOMPANYING INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY Ladies and Gentlemen: Subject to the terms and conditions of the Exchange Offer, the undersigned hereby tenders to the Company for exchange the principal amount of Original Notes indicated above. Subject to and effective upon the acceptance for exchange of the principal amount of Original Notes tendered in accordance with this letter of transmittal, the undersigned hereby exchanges, assigns and transfers to, or upon the order of, the Company all right, title and interest in and to such Original Notes tendered for exchange hereby. The undersigned hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Exchange Agent the true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact for the undersigned (with full knowledge that said Exchange Agent also acts as the agent for the Company in connection with the Exchange Offer) with respect to the tendered Original Notes with full power of substitution to (i) deliver such Original Notes, or transfer ownership of such Original Notes on the account books maintained by the DTC, to the Company and deliver all accompanying evidences of transfer and authenticity, and (ii) present such Original Notes for transfer on the books of the Company and receive all benefits and otherwise exercise all rights of beneficial ownership of such Original Notes, all in accordance with the terms of the Exchange Offer. The power of attorney granted in this paragraph shall be deemed to be irrevocable and coupled with an interest. The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to tender, exchange, assign and transfer the Original Notes tendered hereby and to acquire the Exchange Notes issuable upon the exchange of such tendered Original Notes, and that the Company will acquire good and unencumbered title thereto, free and clear of all liens, restrictions, charges and encumbrances and not subject to any adverse claim, when the same are accepted for exchange by the Company. The undersigned acknowledges that the Exchange Offer is being made in reliance upon interpretations set forth in no-action letters issued to third parties by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including Exxon Capital Holdings Corporation (available May 13, 1988), Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated (available June 5, 1991), Mary Kay Cosmetics, Inc. (available June 5, 1991) and similar no-action letters (the "Prior No-Action Letters"), that the Exchange Notes issued in exchange for the Original Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be offered for resale, resold and otherwise transferred by holders thereof (other than any such holder that is an "affiliate" of the Company within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act), without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act, PROVIDED that such Exchange Notes are acquired in the ordinary course of such holders' business and such holders are not engaging in, do not intend to engage in and have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in a distribution of such Exchange Notes. The SEC has not, however, considered the Exchange Offer in the context of a no-action letter, and there can be no assurance that the staff of the SEC would make a similar determination with respect to the Exchange Offer as in other circumstances. The undersigned hereby further represents to the Company that (i) any Exchange Notes received are being acquired in the ordinary course of business of the person receiving such Exchange Notes, whether or not the undersigned, (ii) neither the undersigned nor any such other person has an arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the Original Notes or the Exchange Notes within the meaning of the Securities Act and (iii) neither the holder nor any such other person is an "affiliate," as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act, of the Company or, if it is such an affiliate, it will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable.

If the undersigned is a broker-dealer that will receive Exchange Notes for its own account in exchange for Original Notes that were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, it acknowledges that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Notes; however, by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, the undersigned will not be deemed to admit that it is an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act. The undersigned acknowledges that if the undersigned is tendering Original Notes in the Exchange Offer with the intention of participating in any manner in a distribution of the Exchange Notes (i) the undersigned cannot rely on the position of the staff of the SEC set forth in the Prior No-Action Letters and, in the absence of an exemption therefrom, must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with a secondary resale transaction of the Exchange Notes, in which case 5

the registration statement must contain the selling security holder information required by Item 507 or Item 508, as applicable, of Regulation S-K of the SEC, and (ii) failure to comply with such requirements in such instance could result in the undersigned incurring liability under the Securities Act for which the undersigned is not indemnified by the Company. The undersigned will, upon request, execute and deliver any additional documents deemed by the Exchange Agent or the Company to be necessary or desirable to complete the exchange, assignment and transfer of the Original Notes tendered hereby, including the transfer of such Original Notes on the account books maintained by the DTC. For purposes of the Exchange Offer, the Company shall be deemed to have accepted for exchange validly tendered Original Notes when, as and if the Company gives oral or written notice thereof to the Exchange Agent. Any tendered Original Notes that are not accepted for exchange pursuant to such Exchange Offer for any reason will be returned, without expense, to the undersigned as promptly as practicable after the Expiration Date for such Exchange Offer. All authority conferred or agreed to be conferred by this letter of transmittal shall survive the death, incapacity or dissolution of the undersigned, and every obligation of the undersigned under this letter of transmittal shall be binding upon the undersigned's successors, assigns, heirs, executors, administrators, trustees in bankruptcy and legal representatives.

If this letter of transmittal (or facsimile hereof) is signed by the record holder(s) of the Original Notes tendered hereby, the signature(s) must correspond exactly with the name(s) as written on the face of the Original Notes without alteration, enlargement or any change whatsoever. If this letter of transmittal (or facsimile hereof) is signed by a participant in the DTC, the signature must correspond with the name as it appears on the security position listing as the holder of the Original Notes. If this letter of transmittal (or facsimile hereof) is signed by the registered holder(s) of Original Notes listed and tendered hereby and the Exchange Notes issued in exchange therefor are to be issued (or any untendered principal amount of Original Notes is to be reissued) to the registered holder(s), the said holder(s) need not and should not endorse any tendered Original Notes, nor provide a separate bond power. In any other case, such holder(s) must either properly endorse the Original Notes tendered or transmit a properly completed separate bond power with this letter of transmittal, with the signatures on the endorsement or bond power guaranteed by an Eligible Institution. If this letter of transmittal (or facsimile hereof) or any Original Notes or bond powers are signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, such persons should so indicate when signing, and, unless waived by the Company, evidence satisfactory to the Company of their authority to act must be submitted with this letter of transmittal. NO SIGNATURE GUARANTEE IS REQUIRED IF (i) THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL (OR FACSIMILE HEREOF) IS SIGNED BY THE REGISTERED HOLDER(S) OF THE ORIGINAL NOTES TENDERED HEREIN (OR BY A PARTICIPANT IN THE DTC WHOSE NAME APPEARS ON A SECURITY POSITION LISTING AS THE OWNER OF THE TENDERED ORIGINAL NOTES) AND THE EXCHANGE NOTES ARE TO BE ISSUED DIRECTLY TO SUCH REGISTERED HOLDER(S) (OR, IF SIGNED BY A PARTICIPANT IN THE DTC, DEPOSITED TO SUCH PARTICIPANT'S ACCOUNT AT THE DTC) AND NEITHER THE BOX ENTITLED "SPECIAL DELIVERY INSTRUCTIONS" NOR THE BOX ENTITLED "SPECIAL REGISTRATION INSTRUCTIONS" HAS BEEN COMPLETED, OR (ii) SUCH ORIGINAL NOTES ARE TENDERED FOR THE ACCOUNT OF AN ELIGIBLE INSTITUTION. IN ALL OTHER CASES, ALL SIGNATURES ON THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL (OR FACSIMILE HEREOF) MUST BE GUARANTEED BY AN ELIGIBLE INSTITUTION. 6. SPECIAL ISSUANCE AND DELIVERY INSTRUCTIONS. Tendering holders should indicate, in the applicable box or boxes, the name and address to which Exchange Notes or substitute Original Notes for principal amounts not tendered or not accepted for exchange are to be issued or sent, if different from the name and address of the person signing this letter of transmittal. In the case of issuance in a different name, the taxpayer identification or social security number of the person named must also be indicated. Holders tendering Original Notes by book-entry transfer may request that Original Notes not exchanged be credited to such account maintained at the DTC as such noteholder may designate hereon. If no such instructions are given, such Original Notes not exchanged will be returned to the name and address (or account number) of the person signing this letter of transmittal. 7. TRANSFER TAXES. The Company will pay all transfer taxes, if any, applicable to the exchange of Original Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer. If, however, Exchange Notes or Original Notes for principal amounts not tendered or accepted for exchange are to be delivered to, or are to be registered or issued in the name of, any person other than the registered holder of the Original Notes tendered hereby, or if tendered Original Notes are registered in the name of any person other than the person signing this letter of transmittal, or if a transfer tax is imposed for any reason other than the exchange of Original Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offer, then the amount of any such transfer taxes (whether imposed on the registered holder or any other persons) will be payable by the tendering holder. If satisfactory evidence of payment of such taxes or exemption therefrom is not submitted with this letter of transmittal, the amount of such transfer 11

taxes will be billed directly to such tendering holder and the Exchange Agent will retain possession of an amount of Exchange Notes with a face amount at least equal to the amount of such transfer taxes due by such tendering holder pending receipt by the Exchange Agent of the amount of such taxes. 8. TAX IDENTIFICATION NUMBER. Federal income tax law requires that a holder of any Original Notes or Exchange Notes must provide the Company (as payor) with its correct taxpayer identification number ("TIN"), which, in the case of a holder who is an individual is his or her social security number. If the Company is not provided with the correct TIN, the holder may be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the Internal Revenue Service and backup withholding of 28% on interest payments on the Exchange Notes. To prevent backup withholding, each tendering holder must provide such holder's correct TIN by completing the Substitute Form W-9 set forth herein, certifying that the holder is a U.S. person (including a U.S. alien), that the TIN provided is correct (or that such holder is awaiting a TIN), and that (i) the holder has not been notified by the Internal Revenue Service that such holder is subject to backup withholding as a result of failure to report all interest or dividends or (ii) the Internal Revenue Service has notified the holder that such holder is no longer subject to backup withholding. If the Exchange Notes will be registered in more than one name or will not be in the name of the actual owner, consult the instructions on Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, which may be obtained from the Exchange Agent, for information on which TIN to report. If a tendering holder does not have a TIN, that holder should consult the instructions on Form W-9 concerning applying for a TIN, check the box in Part III of the Substitute Form W-9, write "applied for" in lieu of its TIN and sign and date the form and the Certificate of Awaiting Taxpayer Identification Number. Checking this box, writing "applied for" on the form and signing such certificate means that such holder has already applied for a TIN or that such holder intends to apply for one in the near future. If the holder does not provide its TIN to the Company within 60 days, backup withholding will begin and continue until such holder furnishes its TIN to the Company. Certain foreign individuals and entities will not be subject to backup withholding or information reporting if they submit a Form W-8BEN (or such other Form W-8, as applicable) signed under penalties of perjury, attesting to, among other things, their foreign status. An appropriate Form W-8 can be obtained from the Exchange Agent. The Company reserves the right in its sole discretion to take whatever steps are necessary to comply with the Company's obligations regarding backup withholding. 9. VALIDITY OF TENDERS. All questions as to the validity, form, eligibility, time of receipt, acceptance and withdrawal of tendered Original Notes will be determined by the Company in its sole discretion, which determination will be final and binding. The Company reserves the absolute right to reject any and all Original Notes not properly tendered or any Original Notes the Company's acceptance of which might, in the opinion of the Company's counsel, be unlawful. The Company also reserves the absolute right to waive any conditions of the Exchange Offer or defects or irregularities of tenders as to particular Original Notes. The Company's interpretation of the terms and conditions of the Exchange Offer (including this letter of transmittal and the instructions hereto) shall be final and binding on all parties. Unless waived, any defects or irregularities in connection with tenders of Original Notes must be cured within such time as the Company shall determine. Neither the Company, the Exchange Agent nor any other person shall be under any duty to give notification of defects or irregularities with respect to tenders of Original Notes nor shall any of them incur any liability for failure to give such notification. 10. WAIVER OF CONDITIONS. The Company reserves the absolute right to waive, in whole or part, any of the conditions to the Exchange Offer set forth in the prospectus. 11. NO CONDITIONAL TENDER. No alternative, conditional, irregular or contingent tender of Original Notes will be accepted. 12. MUTILATED, LOST, STOLEN OR DESTROYED ORIGINAL NOTES. Any holder whose Original Notes have been mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed should contact the Exchange Agent at the address indicated above for further instructions. This letter of transmittal and related documents cannot be processed until the procedures for replacing lost, stolen or destroyed Original Notes have been followed. 13. REQUESTS FOR ASSISTANCE OR ADDITIONAL COPIES. Requests for assistance or for additional copies of the prospectus or this letter of transmittal may be directed to the Exchange Agent at the address or telephone 12

number set forth on the cover page of this letter of transmittal. Holders may also contact their broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee for assistance concerning the Exchange Offer. 14. WITHDRAWAL. Tenders may be withdrawn only pursuant to the limited withdrawal rights set forth in the prospectus under the caption "The Exchange Offer -- Withdrawal of Tenders." IMPORTANT: THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL OR A MANUALLY SIGNED FACSIMILE HEREOF OR AN AGENT'S MESSAGE IN LIEU HEREOF (TOGETHER WITH THE ORIGINAL NOTES DELIVERED BY BOOK-ENTRY TRANSFER OR IN ORIGINAL HARD COPY FORM) MUST BE RECEIVED BY THE EXCHANGE AGENT, OR THE NOTICE OF GUARANTEED DELIVERY MUST BE RECEIVED BY THE EXCHANGE AGENT, PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION DATE. 13
