Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
          On September 25, 2006, Amkor Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Unitive, Inc., a Delaware corporation and subsidiary of the Company and Unitive Electronics, Inc., a North Carolina corporation and indirect subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Limited Waiver of Loan and Security Agreement (the “Waiver”) with the lenders (the “Lenders”) party to the Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan and Security Agreement”), dated as of November 28, 2005, and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent for the Lenders (“Agent”). The Waiver provides for the waiver of any inability of Borrowers to satisfy the conditions precedent to borrowing as a result of (i) the failure of the Company to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) prior to the applicable deadline specified in the Exchange Act of 1934, and provide copies thereof to the holders of its debt securities (or their representative trustees), any report or other information as it would be required to file with the SEC under Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and any related notices or reports, on or before October 10, 2006, which date may be extended through December 31, 2006 and further extended through March 31, 2006 at the option of the Company (the “SEC Reporting Waiver”), or (ii) by reason of a restatement of any of Borrowers’ financial statements due to possible accounting errors related to Amkor’s historical stock option accounting practices. The SEC Reporting Waiver shall terminate if any default or event of default occurs under the Loan and Security Agreement (including any cross-default that may occur as a result of an event of default under the indentures governing the Company’s debt securities). Each Lender received a fee upon effectiveness of the Waiver in the amount of 10 basis points of each Lender’s revolving commitment, and shall receive an additional fee of 15 basis points and 25 basis points of each Lender’s revolving commitment if the waiver is extended to December 31, 2006 and March 31, 2006, respectively.
          A copy of the Waiver is included herewith as exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

     WHEREAS, the Borrower has advised the Lenders that a default may have occurred and exist under its Material Contracts as more fully set forth in the Consent Solicitation Statements, dated September 14, 2006 (as may be amended, supplemented or replaced, the “Consent Solicitations”), soliciting consents to certain “Proposed Waivers” from the holders of certain of Amkor’s senior notes, senior subordinated notes, convertible senior subordinated notes and convertible subordinated notes constituting Material Contracts as a result of Amkor’s failure to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) prior to the applicable deadline specified in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and to deliver to the applicable trustee and the holders of such notes a copy of, any report or other information as it would be required to file with the SEC under Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (including, without limitation, its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2006 (the “Form 10-Q”) and any related notices or reports (collectively, the “SEC Reports”); and
     WHEREAS, one of the representations of the Borrowers in Section 9 of the Loan and Security Agreement (specifically Section 9.1.18 thereof) is that no default exists under any Material Contract; and
     WHEREAS, Section 6.2 of the Loan and Security Agreement provides that it is a condition precedent (among others) to the funding of any Revolving Loans, the issuance of any Letters of Credit or grant of any other accommodation to or for the benefit of the Borrowers that all of the representations and warranties of each Obligor in the Loan Documents shall be true and correct on the date of, and upon the giving effect to, such funding, issuance or grant (the “Condition Precedent”); and

ARTICLE 1
Definitions
     Section 1.1 Definitions. Unless otherwise defined in this Agreement, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the same meanings herein as set forth in the Loan and Security Agreement.
ARTICLE 2
Limited Waiver of Loan and Security Agreement
     Section 2.1 Waiver. The Lenders waive the Condition Precedent to the extent, and only to the extent, that such failure to meet all of the conditions precedent to current credit extensions required by the Loan and Security Agreement results solely from (i) the failure of Amkor to file with the SEC prior to the applicable deadline specified in the Exchange Act, and provide copies thereof to the holders of its debt securities (or their representative trustees), the SEC Reports on or before the “Waiver Expiration Date” (as such term is defined in the Consent Solicitations) (the “SEC Reporting Waiver”), and (ii) the non-reliance on any financial statements delivered to the Agent or the Lenders at any time prior to the Waiver Date by reason of the restatement of Borrowers’ financial statements due to certain accounting errors related to Amkor’s historical stock option grant practices (the “Restatement Waiver” and together with the SEC Reporting Waiver, the “Limited Waiver”).
     Section 2.2 Limitation of Waiver. The Limited Waiver granted in Section 2.1 of this Agreement shall be: (i) effective conditioned upon fulfillment of the conditions provided in Article 3 below; and (ii) limited strictly as written and shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of, or any consent to noncompliance with, any term, condition or provision of the Loan and Security Agreement or any other Loan Document except as expressly set forth herein. Further, the SEC Reporting Waiver granted in Section 2.1 of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of and shall immediately terminate and expire on the Waiver Expiration Date or upon the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default. The Restatement Waiver shall remain in effect from the Waiver Date to and including the Termination Date. The Limited Waiver shall not constitute a waiver of any rights, remedies, powers or privileges of the Agent or any Lender arising as a result of any such Default or Event of Default. The Lenders hereby acknowledge that the failure of Amkor to file the Form 10-Q with the SEC prior to the applicable deadline specified in the Exchange Act does not constitute a Default.
