Offer), a properly completed and executed Election Form and any other documents

Amkor Technology, Inc. ("AMKOR," "WE" or "US") is offering eligible
employees the opportunity to exchange all outstanding options to purchase shares
of Amkor common stock granted under the Amkor Technology, Inc. 1998 Stock Plan,
as may be amended from time to time (the "1998 PLAN"), the Amkor Technology,
Inc. 1998 Director Option Plan, as may be amended from time to time (the
"DIRECTOR PLAN") or the Amkor Technology, Inc. 1998 Stock Plan for French
Employees, as may be amended from time to time (the "FRENCH PLAN") for a new
option which we will grant under the 1998 Plan, unless you are a tax resident of
France, in which case you will be granted a new option under the French Plan. An
"ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEE" refers to all employees of Amkor or one of our subsidiaries
and members of the Board of Directors of Amkor as of the date the Offer
commences and as of the date tendered options are cancelled. To clarify,
non-employee affiliates and contractors are not eligible for the Offer. Please
be sure to read Section 17 below, in which we discuss the tax consequences of
participating in the Offer for eligible employees within the United States.
Special tax considerations may apply to eligible employees resident or otherwise
subject to taxation in China, France, Japan, Korea, the Philippines, Singapore,
Switzerland, Taiwan and the United Kingdom. Please be sure to read Section 18
below, in which we discuss the tax consequences of participating in the Offer
for eligible employees outside the United States and specific rules that apply
to new options in certain jurisdictions. We are making the Offer upon the terms
and conditions described in this Offer to Exchange, the related memorandum from
Cathy Loucks dated November 8, 2002, the Election Form and the Notice to Change
Election from Accept to Reject (which together, as they may be amended from time
to time, constitute the "OFFER").

If you meet the eligibility requirements, and subject to the terms of this
Offer, you will receive a new option grant to purchase a number of shares equal
to the number of unexercised shares

under the old option you are tendering. You may only tender options for all or
none of the unexercised shares covered by any particular grant of options.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Offer, we will grant the new options
no earlier than the first business day that is six months and one day after the
date we cancel the options accepted for exchange. The Board of Directors of
Amkor intends to grant the new options promptly after the date that is at least
six months and one day from the date that we cancel the tendered options. All
tendered options accepted by us through the Offer will be cancelled promptly
after the date the Offer ends. The Offer is currently scheduled to expire at
5:00 p.m., Mountain Standard Time on December 10, 2002, or such date and time as
we may extend the Offer (the "EXPIRATION DATE"), and we expect to cancel options
on December 11, 2002, or as soon as possible thereafter (the "CANCELLATION
DATE").

IF YOU TENDER ANY OPTION GRANT FOR EXCHANGE, YOU WILL ALSO BE REQUIRED TO
TENDER ALL OPTION GRANTS THAT YOU RECEIVED DURING THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD PRIOR TO
THE COMMENCEMENT OF THE OFFER. This means that if you participate in the Offer,
you will be required to tender all options granted to you since May 8, 2002.

The Offer is not conditioned on a minimum number of options being
tendered. Participation in the Offer is completely voluntary. The Offer is
subject to conditions that we describe in Section 7 of this Offer.

If you tender options for exchange as described in the Offer, and we
accept your tendered options, then, subject to the terms of this Offer, we will
grant you new options under the 1998 Plan, unless you are a tax resident of
France, in which case you will be granted a new option under the French Plan. In
order to receive a new option pursuant to this Offer, you must continue to be an
employee or member of the Board of Directors as of the date on which the new
options are granted, which will be no earlier than the first business day that
is six months and one day after the Cancellation Date. ONCE YOUR OPTION IS
CANCELLED, IT IS GONE FOREVER. ACCORDINGLY, IF YOUR EMPLOYMENT OR STATUS AS A
MEMBER OF AMKOR'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS TERMINATES FOR ANY REASON PRIOR TO THE
GRANT OF THE NEW OPTION, YOU WILL NOT HAVE THE BENEFIT OF THE CANCELLED OPTION
OR THE NEW OPTION.

The exercise price per share of the new options will be 100% of the fair
market value on the date of grant, as determined by the closing price of our
common stock reported by the Nasdaq National Market on the date of grant (the
exercise price for new options granted under the French Plan will in no event be
less than 80% of the average fair market value of the stock during the twenty
trading days prior to the date of grant).

The number of shares subject to your new options will equal the number of
unexercised and outstanding shares subject to your properly tendered options.
The term of each new option will be extended by one year beyond the term of the
original option. Subject to your continued status as an employee of Amkor or one
of its subsidiaries or a member of the Board of Directors of Amkor, as
applicable, each new option will vest and be exercisable as follows:

(i) On the one year anniversary of the grant date of your new option, your
new option will vest and become exercisable as to the number of shares that
would have been exercisable under the terms of your old option on the date your
new option was granted. For example, if the grant date of the new options is
June 12, 2003 and you tender an option to purchase 2,000 shares that would have

been fully vested as of June 12, 2003 had it not been cancelled in connection
with the Offer, you will be granted a new option to purchase 2,000 shares, all
of which will be subject to vesting until June 12, 2004.

(ii) Each month following the one year anniversary of the grant date of
your new option, any shares subject to your new option that have not yet vested
will vest and become exercisable as to that number of shares equal to one
forty-eighth (1/48th) of the total shares granted under the original option. For
example, if the grant date of the new option is June 12, 2003 and you tender an
option to purchase 4,000 shares, 3,333 of which would have been vested as of
June 12, 2003 and 667 of which would have been subject to continued vesting at a
rate of 83 shares per month following June 12, 2003 had the option not been
cancelled in connection with the Offer, you will be granted a new option to
purchase 4,000 shares, 3,333 of which shall be subject to vesting until June 12,
2004 and 667 of which will shall vest at a rate of 83 shares per month each
month following June 12, 2004.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, new options granted under the French
Plan will vest and become exercisable four years after the grant date of such
options.

Although our Board of Directors has approved the Offer, neither we nor our
Board of Directors make any recommendation as to whether you should tender or
not tender your options for exchange. You must evaluate the risks associated
with the Offer and make your own decision whether or not to tender your options.

SUMMARY TERM SHEET

The following are answers to some of the questions that you may have about
the Offer. We urge you to read carefully the remainder of this Offer to
Exchange, the accompanying memorandum from Cathy Loucks dated November 8, 2002,
the Election Form and the Notice to Change Election From Accept to Reject
because the information in this summary is not complete, and additional
important information is contained in the remainder of this Offer to Exchange,
the memorandum from Cathy Loucks dated November 8, 2002, the Election Form and
the Notice to Change Election From Accept to Reject, as well as our annual
report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001, as amended, our
quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2002 and our
current report on Form 8-K, which contains Amkor's financial statements for the
quarter ended September 30, 2002, all of which are available free of charge to
the public on either the SEC's Internet site at http://www.sec.gov or Amkor's
Internet site at http://www.amkor.com. We have included page references to the
remainder of this Offer to Exchange where you can find a more complete
description of the topics in this summary.

Q1.   WHAT SECURITIES ARE YOU OFFERING TO EXCHANGE?

A1.   We are offering to exchange all outstanding, unexercised options to
purchase shares of common stock of Amkor granted under the 1998 Plan, the
Director Plan or the French Plan that are held by eligible employees for
new options which we will grant under the 1998 Plan, unless you are a tax
resident of France, in which case you will be granted a new option under
the French Plan. (Page 16)

Q2.   WHO IS ELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE?

A2.   Employees and members of the Board of Directors are eligible to
participate if they are employees or members of the Board of Directors of
Amkor or one of our subsidiaries as of the date the Offer commences and
the date on which the tendered options are cancelled. To clarify,
non-employee affiliates and contractors are not eligible to participate.

In order to receive a new option, you must remain an employee of Amkor or
one of its subsidiaries or a member of the Board of Directors of Amkor as
of the date the new options are granted, which will be no earlier than the
first business day that is six months and one day after the Cancellation
Date. If Amkor does not extend the Offer, the new options will be granted
no earlier than June 12, 2003. (Page 16)

Q3.   ARE EMPLOYEES OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES ELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE?

A3.   All employees outside the United States are eligible to participate. The
tender of your existing options for cancellation in exchange for the grant
of new options may be a taxable event in certain countries outside of the
U.S. Please be sure to read Section 18 of this Offer to Exchange, which
discusses the tax consequences of participating in the Offer for employees
outside of the United States. (Page 16)

-1-

Q4.   WHY IS AMKOR MAKING THE OFFER?

A4.   We believe that granting stock options provides an opportunity to: (1)
align the interests of employees, members of the Board of Directors and
stockholders, (2) provide incentives for employees to achieve high levels
of performance, and (3) to provide members of the Board of Directors a
continuing incentive to serve on our Board. The Offer provides an
opportunity for us to offer eligible employees a valuable incentive to
stay with our company. Some of our outstanding options, whether or not
they are currently exercisable, have exercise prices that are
significantly higher than the current market price of our shares (that is,
these options currently are "underwater"). By making this offer to
exchange outstanding options for new options that will have an exercise
price equal to the market value of the shares on the grant date, we intend
to provide our eligible employees (including members of the Board of
Directors) with the benefit of owning options that over time may have a
greater potential to increase in value. (Page 18)

Q5.   WHAT ARE THE CONDITIONS OF THE OFFER?

A5.   The Offer is not conditioned on a minimum number of options being
tendered. Participation in the offer is completely voluntary. The
conditions are described in Section 7 of this Offer. (Page 24)

Q6.   ARE THERE ANY ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS THAT I MUST SATISFY AFTER THE
EXPIRATION DATE TO RECEIVE THE NEW OPTIONS?

A6.   To receive new options pursuant to the Offer and subject to the terms of
the 1998 Plan and the French Plan, you must be an employee of Amkor or one
of our subsidiaries or a member of the Board of Directors of Amkor, as
applicable, as of the date the new options are granted. (Page 16)

As discussed below, subject to the terms of this Offer, we will grant the
new options no earlier than the first business day that is six months and
one day after the Cancellation Date. The Board of Directors of Amkor
intends to grant the new options promptly after the date that is at least
six months and one day from the Cancellation Date. If, for any reason, you
do not remain an employee of Amkor or one of our subsidiaries or a member
of the Board of Directors of Amkor, as applicable, through the date we
grant the new options, you will not receive any new options or other
compensation in exchange for your tendered options that have been accepted
for exchange and cancelled. (Page 16)

Q7.   HOW MANY NEW OPTIONS WILL I RECEIVE IN EXCHANGE FOR MY TENDERED OPTIONS?

A7.   If you meet the eligibility requirements, and subject to the terms of this
Offer, we will grant you a new option to purchase the number of shares
equal to the number of unexercised shares covered by the option you are
tendering (that is, options will be exchanged on a one-for-one basis) for
tendered options. Unless prevented by law or applicable regulations new
options will be granted under the 1998 Plan, except if you are a tax
resident of France, in which case you will be granted a new option under
the French Plan. All new options will be subject to a new option agreement
between you and Amkor. (Page 26)

-2-

Q8.   WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY NEW OPTIONS?

A8.   We will grant the new options no earlier than the first business day that
is six months and one day after the Cancellation Date. The Board of
Directors of Amkor intends to grant the new options promptly after the
date that is at least six months and one day from the Cancellation Date.
If we cancel tendered options on December 11, 2002, which is the scheduled
date for the cancellation of the options (the first business day following
the Expiration Date), the new options will be granted no earlier than June
12, 2003. (Page 16)

Q9.   WHY WON'T I RECEIVE MY NEW OPTIONS IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE EXPIRATION DATE
OF THE OFFER?

A9.   If we were to grant the new options on any date that is earlier than six
months and one day after the Cancellation Date, we would be subject to
onerous accounting charges. We would be required for financial reporting
purposes to treat the new options as variable awards. This means that we
would be required to record the non-cash accounting impact of decreases
and increases in our share price as a compensation expense for the new
options issued under this Offer. We would have to continue this variable
accounting for these new options until they were exercised, forfeited or
terminated. The higher the market value of our shares, the greater the
compensation expense we would have to record. By deferring the grant of
the new options for six months and one day, we believe we will not have to
treat the new options as variable awards. (Page 32)

Q10.  IF I TENDER OPTIONS IN THE OFFER, WILL I BE ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE OTHER
OPTION GRANTS BEFORE I RECEIVE MY NEW OPTIONS?

A10.  No. If we accept options you tender in the Offer, you will not be granted
any other options until at least the grant date for your new options, if
at all. Future option grants not associated with the Offer are
discretionary and will be deferred in order to allow Amkor to avoid
incurring compensation expense against our earnings because of accounting
rules that could apply to interim option grants as a result of the Offer.
In addition, you will not receive any options if you are no longer an
employee of Amkor or one of our subsidiaries or a member of Amkor's Board
of Directors, as applicable, on the date the new options are to be
granted. (Page 22)

Q11.  WILL I BE REQUIRED TO GIVE UP ALL MY RIGHTS TO THE CANCELLED OPTIONS?

A11.  Yes. Once we have accepted options tendered by you, your options will be
cancelled and you will no longer have any rights under those options. We
currently expect to accept and cancel all properly tendered options
promptly following the Expiration Date. You have the right to change your
election regarding particular tendered options at any time before the
Expiration Date. The Expiration Date is expected to be 5:00 p.m., Mountain
Standard Time, on December 10, 2002, unless we extend it. Thus, if for any
reason you do not remain an employee of Amkor or one of our subsidiaries
or a member of the Board of Directors of Amkor, as applicable, through the
date we grant the new options, you will not receive any new options or
other compensation in exchange for your tendered options that have been
accepted for exchange and cancelled. (Page 22)

-3-

Q12.  WHAT WILL THE EXERCISE PRICE OF THE NEW OPTIONS BE?

A12.  The exercise price per share of the new options will be 100% of the fair
market value of our common stock on the date of grant, as determined by
the closing price reported by the Nasdaq National Market for the date of
grant (the exercise price for new options granted under the French Plan
will in no event be less than 80% of the average fair market value of the
stock during the twenty trading days prior to the date of grant). (Page
27)

Accordingly, we cannot predict the exercise price of the new options.
Because the grant of new options will occur no earlier than the first
business day that is six months and one day after the Cancellation Date,
there is a risk that the new options may have a higher exercise price than
some or all of your current options. We recommend that you evaluate
current market quotes for our shares, among other factors, before deciding
whether or not to tender your options. (Pages 27 and 30)

Q13.  IF I CHOOSE TO TENDER AN OPTION THAT IS ELIGIBLE FOR EXCHANGE, DO I HAVE
TO TENDER ALL THE SHARES COVERED BY THAT OPTION?

A13.  Yes. We are not accepting partial tenders of options. However, you may
tender the remaining portion of an option that you have partially
exercised. Accordingly, you may tender one or more of your option grants,
but you may only tender all of the unexercised shares covered by each
option grant or none of those shares. In certain circumstances, for
administrative convenience, a single option grant was prepared as two
option grants because the option was to become exercisable as to a
sufficient number of shares to exceed the $100,000 rule for incentive
stock options. As a result of that rule, in those circumstances a single
option grant will be treated as both an incentive stock option and a
nonstatutory stock option. Our stock administrator prepares this option
grant as two grants so as to be able to track whether an incentive or
nonstatutory stock option has been exercised. Therefore, your records may
reflect that you were granted two separate options on the same day when in
reality it was one option grant. Accordingly, if you had your option grant
prepared as two option grants for the reasons described above, the option
will be treated as only one option for purposes of this Offer. As a
result, if you tender the option, both the incentive stock option and the
nonstatutory stock option must be tendered.

Also, if you decide to tender any of your option grants, then you must
tender all of your options that were granted to you during the six-month
period prior to the commencement of the Offer (that is, since May 8,
2002). For example, if you received an option grant in June 2001 and a
grant in July 2002 and you want to tender your June option grant, you
would also be required to tender your July option grant. You are not
required to tender any other awards, including grants of restricted stock.
(Pages 16 and 17)

Q14.  WHEN WILL THE NEW OPTIONS VEST?

A14.  The number of shares subject to your new options will equal the number of
unexercised and outstanding shares subject to your properly tendered
options. The term of each new option will be extended by one year beyond
the term of the original option. Subject to your continued status as an
employee of Amkor or one of its subsidiaries or a member of the

-4-

Board of Directors of Amkor, as applicable, each new option will vest and
be exercisable as follows:

(i) On the one year anniversary of the grant date of your new
option, your new option will vest and become exercisable as to the number
of shares that would have been exercisable under the terms of your old
option on the date your new option was granted. For example, if the grant
date of the new options is June 12, 2003 and you tender an option to
purchase 2,000 shares that would have been fully vested as of June 12,
2003 had it not been cancelled in connection with the Offer, you will be
granted a new option to purchase 2,000 shares, all of which will be
subject to vesting until June 12, 2004.

(ii) Each month following the one year anniversary of the grant date
of your new option, any shares subject to your new option that have not
yet vested will vest and become exercisable as to that number of shares
equal to one forty-eighth (1/48th) of the total shares granted under the
original option. For example, if the grant date of the new option is June
12, 2003 and you tender an option to purchase 4,000 shares, 3,333 of which
would have been vested as of June 12, 2003 and 667 of which would have
been subject to continued vesting at a rate of 83 shares per month
following June 12, 2003 had the option not been cancelled in connection
with the Offer, you will be granted a new option to purchase 4,000 shares,
3,333 of which shall be subject to vesting until June 12, 2004 and 667 of
which will shall vest at a rate of 83 shares per month each month
following June 12, 2004. (Page 27)

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, new options granted under the
French Plan will vest and become exercisable four years after the grant
date of such options.

Q15.  WHAT IF AMKOR ENTERS INTO A MERGER OR OTHER SIMILAR TRANSACTION?

A15.  It is possible that, prior to the grant of new options, we might effect,
or enter into an agreement providing that we will enter into, a merger or
other similar transaction. The Promise to Grant Stock Option, which we
will give you, is a binding commitment, and we will require that any
successor to our company be legally obligated by that commitment. (Page
25)

You should be aware that these types of transactions could have
substantial effects on our share price, including, potentially,
substantial appreciation in the price of our shares. Depending on the
structure of the transaction, tendering option holders might be deprived
of any further price appreciation in the shares associated with the new
options. For example, if our shares were acquired in a cash merger, the
fair market value of our shares, and hence the price at which we grant the
new options, would likely be a price at or near the cash price being paid
for the shares in the transaction, yielding limited or no financial
benefit to a recipient of the new options for that transaction. In
addition, in the event of an acquisition of our company for stock,
tendering option holders might receive new options to purchase shares of a
different issuer. (Page 25)

-5-

Q16.  WHAT HAPPENS IF MY STATUS AS AN EMPLOYEE OF AMKOR OR ONE OF ITS
SUBSIDIARIES OR A MEMBER OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF AMKOR, AS
APPLICABLE, TERMINATES PRIOR TO THE GRANT DATE OF THE NEW OPTIONS?

A.16  If your status as an employee of Amkor or one of its subsidiaries or a
member of the Board of Directors of Amkor is terminated for any reason
prior to the first business day that is six months and one day after the
Cancellation Date, you will not receive any new options and you will have
forfeited all rights to any options previously tendered in connection with
the Offer. If your status as an employee of Amkor or one of its
subsidiaries or a member of the Board of Directors of Amkor is terminated
after you have been granted new options, your new option will be subject
to the terms and conditions of the plan under which it was granted and the
option agreement entered into between you and Amkor. If the shares subject
to your new option are vested and exercisable at the time you are
terminated, the terms of the option agreement may provide that you will
have thirty (30) days following the date of your termination in which to
exercise such options and in the event of your termination as a result of
your disability or death, the option agreement may provide that you will
have twelve (12) months from the date of your termination in which to
exercise your options. In addition, your option agreement may provide that
you will be able to exercise your option for a period of twelve (12)
months following your retirement if you meet certain eligibility criteria.
(Page 16)

Q17.  ARE THERE CIRCUMSTANCES OTHER THAN THE TERMINATION OF MY STATUS AS AN
EMPLOYEE OF AMKOR OR ONE OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR MEMBER OF THE BOARD OF
DIRECTORS OF AMKOR, AS APPLICABLE, WHERE I WOULD NOT BE GRANTED NEW
OPTIONS?

A17.  Yes. Even if we accept your tendered options, we will not grant new
options to you if we are prohibited by applicable law or regulation from
doing so. Such a prohibition could result from changes in foreign laws,
SEC rules, regulations or policies or Nasdaq National Market listing
requirements. We will use reasonable efforts to avoid the prohibition, but
if it is applicable from the Cancellation Date until the date we grant new
options, we will not grant you new options. We do not anticipate any such
prohibitions and are referring to the possibility in an abundance of
caution. (Page 24)

Also, if you are no longer an employee of Amkor or one of its subsidiaries
or a member of the Board of Directors of Amkor, as applicable, on the date
we grant new options, you will not receive any new options or any
consideration on account of the cancelled options. (Page 17)

Q18.  WHAT HAPPENS TO OPTIONS THAT I CHOOSE NOT TO TENDER OR THAT ARE NOT
ACCEPTED FOR EXCHANGE?

A18.  Options that you choose not to tender for exchange or that we do not
accept for exchange retain their current exercise price and current
vesting schedule and remain outstanding until you exercise them or they
expire by their terms.

You should note that there is a risk that any incentive stock options
("ISOS") you hold may be affected, even if you do not participate in the
exchange. We believe that you will not be

-6-

subject to current U.S. federal income tax if you do not elect to
participate in the option exchange program. We also believe that the
option exchange program will not change the U.S. federal income tax
treatment of subsequent grants and exercises of your incentive stock
options (and sales of shares acquired upon exercise of such options) if
you do not participate in the option exchange program. (Page 33)

However, the IRS may characterize the option exchange program as a
"modification" of those incentive stock options for U.S. tax purposes,
even if you decline to participate. In 1991, the IRS issued a private
letter ruling in which another company's option exchange program was
characterized as a "modification" of the ISO that could be exchanged. This
does not necessarily mean that our offer to exchange options will be
viewed the same way. Private letter rulings issued by the IRS contain the
IRS's opinion regarding only the specific facts presented by a specific
person or company. The person or company receiving the letter may rely on
it, but no other person or company may rely on the letter ruling or assume
the same opinion would apply to their situation, even if the facts at
issue are similar. While such letters do not provide certainty, they may
indicate how the IRS will view a similar situation. (Page 33)

We, therefore, do not know if the IRS will assert the position that our
offer constitutes a "modification" of ISOs that can be tendered. A
successful assertion by the IRS of this position could extend the options'
holding period to qualify for favorable tax treatment. Accordingly, to the
extent you dispose of your ISO shares prior to the lapse of the new
extended holding period, your ISO could be taxed similarly to a
nonstatutory stock option ("NSO"). (Page 33)

Q19.  WILL I HAVE TO PAY TAXES IF I EXCHANGE OPTIONS IN THE OFFER?

A19.  If you exchange your current options for new options, you should not be
required under current law to recognize income for U.S. federal income tax
purposes at the time of the exchange. Further, at the grant date of the
new options, you will not be required under current law to recognize
income for U.S. federal income tax purposes. WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU CONSULT
WITH YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR TO DETERMINE THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF TENDERING
OPTIONS THROUGH THE OFFER. If you are an eligible employee resident
outside of the United States or otherwise subject to the tax laws of a
jurisdiction outside of the United States, we likewise recommend that you
consult with your own tax advisor (at your own expense) to determine the
income and social tax consequences of the Offer under the laws of the
country in which you live and work. Also please refer to Sections 17 and
18 of this Offer to Exchange. (Pages 33 and 34)

Q20.  IF MY CURRENT OPTIONS ARE ISOS, WILL MY NEW OPTIONS BE ISOS?

A20.  No. All new options will be nonstatutory stock options ("NSOs") for U.S.
income tax purposes. (Page 26) Any income realized in connection with the
exercise of the NSOs will be subject to tax as ordinary income to the
extent that the fair market value of a share of Amkor stock exceeds the
exercise price. NSOs are not eligible for tax favored treatment similar to
the ISOs that you may decide to tender. Please refer to Section 17 of this
Offer to Exchange.

-7-

Q21.  WHEN WILL MY NEW OPTION EXPIRE?

A21.  The expiration date of each new option will be extended by one year beyond
the expiration date of the original option in respect of which the new
option will be issued, or earlier if your employment with Amkor or one of
our subsidiaries or directorship with Amkor, as applicable, terminates.
(Page 26)

Q22.  WHEN DOES THE OFFER EXPIRE? CAN THE OFFER BE EXTENDED, AND IF SO, HOW WILL
I BE NOTIFIED IF IT IS EXTENDED?

A22.  The Offer expires on December 10, 2002, at 5:00 p.m., Mountain Standard
Time, unless we extend it. We may, in our sole discretion, extend the
Offer at any time, but we cannot assure you that the Offer will be
extended or, if extended, for how long. If the Offer is extended, we will
make a public announcement of the extension no later than 7:00 a.m.,
Mountain Standard Time, on the next business day following the previously
scheduled expiration of the offer period. (Page 18)

Q23.  HOW DO I TENDER MY OPTIONS?

A23.  If you decide to tender your options, we must receive, before 5:00 p.m.,
Mountain Standard Time, on December 10, 2002 (or such later date and time
as we may extend the Expiration Date), a properly completed and executed
Election Form and any other documents required by the Election Form via
facsimile (fax # (480) 821-1470) or hand delivery to Amkor Technology,
Inc., Attn: Cathy Loucks, 1900 S. Price Rd, Chandler, AZ 85248. Employees
located outside the United States may also submit documents and inquiries
related to the Offer to regional Amkor administrators as set forth in
Schedule A attached to this Offer to Exchange. This is a one-time offer,
and we will strictly enforce the tender offer period and the cut-off time
for the Offer of 5:00 p.m. Mountain Standard Time on December 10, 2002 (or
such later date and time as we may extend the expiration of the Offer). We
reserve the right to reject any or all tenders of options that we
determine are not in appropriate form or that we determine are unlawful to
accept. Subject to our rights to extend, terminate and amend the Offer, we
currently expect that we will accept all properly tendered options

CERTAIN RISKS
OF PARTICIPATING IN THE OFFER

Participation in the Offer involves a number of potential risks, including
those described below. This list and the risk factors, beginning on page 30 in
Amkor's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001,
filed on April 1, 2002, and as amended as of May 24, 2002, and on page 27 in
Amkor's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, for the quarter ended June 30, 2002,
filed on August 14, 2002 highlight the material risks of participating in this
Offer. Eligible participants should carefully consider these risks and are
encouraged to speak with an investment and tax advisor as necessary before
deciding to participate in the Offer. In addition, we strongly urge you to read
the rest of this Offer to Exchange, along with the memorandum from Cathy Loucks,
dated November 8, 2002, the Election Form and the Notice to Change Election from
Accept to Reject, for a more detailed discussion of the risks which may apply to
you, before deciding to participate in this Offer.

ECONOMIC RISKS

IF YOUR EMPLOYMENT WITH AMKOR OR ONE OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR STATUS AS A MEMBER
OF AMKOR'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS TERMINATES FOR ANY REASON PRIOR TO THE GRANT OF
THE NEW OPTION, YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE A NEW OPTION OR THE RETURN OF YOUR
CANCELLED OPTION.

Once your option is cancelled, you will no longer have any rights with
respect to it. Accordingly, if your employment with Amkor or one of its
subsidiaries or status as a member of Amkor's Board of Directors, as applicable,
terminates for any reason prior to the grant of the new option, you will have
the benefit of neither the cancelled option nor the new option. The Offer is not
a guarantee of employment or service as a director for any period. Your
employment with Amkor or one of its subsidiaries remains "at will" and may be
terminated at any time by either you or Amkor (or one of its subsidiaries, as
applicable), with or without cause or notice, subject to the provisions of the
laws of your country of residence. Any director may be removed at any time upon
the vote of stockholders of Amkor holding a majority of the Amkor's outstanding
common stock.

IF OUR STOCK PRICE INCREASES AFTER THE DATE YOUR TENDERED OPTIONS ARE CANCELLED,
YOUR CANCELLED OPTIONS MIGHT HAVE BEEN WORTH MORE THAN THE NEW OPTIONS THAT YOU
WILL RECEIVE IN EXCHANGE FOR THEM.

We cannot predict the exercise price of new options. Because we will grant
new options no earlier than the first business day that is six months and one
day after the Cancellation Date, the new options may have a higher exercise
price than some or all of your current options. For example, if you cancel
options with a $20 exercise price, and Amkor's stock appreciates to $30 when the
new option grants are made, your new option will have a higher exercise price
than the cancelled option.

PARTICIPATION IN THE OFFER WILL MAKE YOU INELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE ANY NEW OPTION
GRANTS UNTIL JUNE 12, 2003, AT THE EARLIEST.

Employees are generally eligible to receive option grants at any time that
the Board of Directors or Compensation Committee chooses to make them. However,
if you participate in the Offer, you will not be eligible to receive the options
issued to you in exchange for your tendered

-10-

options until the first business day that is six months and one day after the
Cancellation Date. Our Board of Directors intends to grant the new options
promptly after the Cancellation Date.

In addition, besides the new options to be granted in connection with the
Offer, you will not be eligible to receive any other option grants until June
12, 2003 at the earliest.

IF WE ARE PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR REGULATIONS FROM GRANTING NEW OPTIONS,
YOU WILL RECEIVE NEITHER A NEW OPTION NOR THE RETURN OF YOUR CANCELLED OPTION.

We will not grant new options to you if we are prohibited by applicable
law or regulations from doing so. Such a prohibition could result from changes
in foreign laws, SEC rules, regulations or policies or Nasdaq listing
requirements. We are unaware of such prohibition at this time, and we will use
reasonable efforts to effect the grant, but if the grant is prohibited as of the
date of grant we will not grant you any new options and you will not receive any
other compensation for the options you tendered. We do not anticipate any such
prohibitions and are referring to the possibility in an abundance of caution.

TAX-RELATED RISKS FOR U.S. RESIDENTS

EVEN IF YOU ELECT NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE OPTION EXCHANGE PROGRAM, YOUR ISOS
MAY BE AFFECTED.

We believe that you will not be subject to current U.S. federal income tax
if you do not elect to participate in the option exchange program. We also
believe that the option exchange program will not change the U.S. federal income
tax treatment of subsequent grants and exercises of your ISOs (and sales of
shares acquired upon exercises of such options) if you do not participate in the
option exchange program.

However, the IRS may characterize the option exchange program as a
"modification" of those ISOs, even if you decline to participate. In 1991, the
IRS issued a private letter ruling in which another company's option exchange
program was characterized as a "modification" of the ISOs that could be
exchanged. This does not necessarily mean that our offer to exchange options
will be viewed the same way. Private letter rulings issued by the IRS contain
the IRS's opinion regarding only the specific facts presented by a specific
person or company. The person or company receiving the letter may rely on it,
but no other person or company may rely on the letter ruling or assume the same
opinion would apply to their situation, even if the facts at issue are similar
to those in the letter. While such letters do not provide certainty, they may
indicate how the IRS will view a similar situation. We, therefore, do not know
if the IRS will assert the position that our offer constitutes a "modification"
of ISOs that can be tendered. A successful assertion by the IRS of this position
could extend the options' holding period to qualify for favorable tax treatment.
Accordingly, to the extent you dispose of your ISO shares prior to the lapse of
the new extended holding period, your ISO could be taxed similarly to an NSO.

TAX-RELATED RISKS FOR NON-U.S. RESIDENTS

Country specific tax-related information for each country in which
eligible employees or members of our Board of Directors are tax residents is
provided in Section 18 of the Offer below. This country specific information
does not discuss all of the tax consequences that may be relevant

-11-

to you when considering your particular circumstances, nor is it intended to be
applicable to all categories of option holders in all respects.

BUSINESS-RELATED RISKS

For a description of risks related to Amkor's business, please see the
risk factors beginning on page 30 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2001, as amended on May 24, 2002, and beginning
on page 27 of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30,
2002. See "Additional Information" beginning on page 45 for instructions on how
you can obtain additional copies of these and of other Amkor Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") filings.

INTRODUCTION

Amkor Technology, Inc. ("AMKOR," "WE" or "US") is offering employees and
members of our Board of Directors the opportunity to exchange all outstanding
options to purchase shares of Amkor common stock granted under the Amkor
Technology, Inc. 1998 Stock Plan (the "1998 PLAN"), the Amkor Technology, Inc.
1998 Director Option Plan (the "DIRECTOR PLAN") and the Amkor Technology, Inc.
1998 Stock Option Plan for French Employees (the "FRENCH PLAN") for a new option
we will grant under the 1998 Plan, unless you are a tax resident of France, in
which case you will be granted a new option under the French Plan. An "ELIGIBLE
EMPLOYEE" refers to all employees of Amkor or one of our subsidiaries and
members of the Board of Directors of Amkor, who are employees as of the date the
Offer commences and as of the date the tendered options are cancelled, including
our executive officers. Please be sure to read Section 18 of the Offer to
Exchange, which discusses the tax consequences of participating in the Offer for
employees outside the United States. We are making the Offer upon the terms and
the conditions described in this Offer to Exchange, the related memorandum from
Cathy Loucks dated November 8, 2002, the Election Form and the Notice to Change
Election from Accept to Reject (which together, as they may be amended from time
to time, constitute the "OFFER").

If you satisfy the terms of this offer, we will grant you a new option to
purchase the same number of unexercised shares covered by old options you are
tendering. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Offer, we will grant the
new options no earlier than the first business day that is six months and one
day after the date we cancel the options accepted for exchange. The grant date
for the new options will be no earlier than June 12, 2003, unless the Offer is
extended, in which case the grant date of the new options will be no earlier
than six months and one day after the cancellation of the options accepted for
exchange. You may only tender options for all or none of the unexercised shares
subject to a particular option grant. Partial tenders consisting of some, but
not all, of the unexercised shares subject to an option grant will not be
accepted. In certain circumstances, for administrative convenience, a single
option grant was prepared as two option grants because the option was to become
exercisable as to a sufficient number of shares to exceed the $100,000 rule for
incentive stock options. As a result of that rule, in those circumstances a
single option grant will be treated as both an incentive stock option and a
nonstatutory stock option. Our stock administrator prepares this option grant as
two grants so as to be able to track whether an incentive or nonstatutory stock
option has been exercised. Therefore, your records may reflect that you were
granted two separate options on the same day when in reality it was one option
grant. Accordingly, if you had your option grant prepared as two option grants
for the reasons described above, the option will be treated as only one option
for purposes of this Offer. As a result, if you tender the option, both the
incentive stock option and the nonstatutory stock option must be tendered.

All tendered options accepted by us through the Offer will be cancelled
promptly after the date the Offer ends. The Offer is currently scheduled to
expire at 5:00 p.m. Mountain Standard Time on December 10, 2002, or such date
and time as we may extend the Offer (the "EXPIRATION DATE"), and we expect to
cancel options on December 11, 2002, or as soon as possible thereafter (the
"CANCELLATION DATE"). IF YOU TENDER ANY OPTION GRANT FOR EXCHANGE, YOU WILL BE
REQUIRED TO ALSO TENDER ALL OPTION GRANTS THAT YOU RECEIVED DURING THE SIX-MONTH
PERIOD PRIOR TO THE COMMENCEMENT OF THE OFFER. This means that if you
participate in the Offer, you will be required to tender all options granted to
you since May 8, 2002.

-13-

The Offer is not conditioned on a minimum number of options being
tendered. Participation in the Offer is completely voluntary. The Offer is
subject to conditions that we describe in Section 7 of this Offer.

If you tender options for exchange as described in the Offer, and we
accept your tendered options, then, subject to the terms of this Offer, we will
grant you new options under either the 1998 Plan or the French Plan. IN ORDER TO
RECEIVE A NEW OPTION PURSUANT TO THIS OFFER, YOU MUST CONTINUE TO BE AN EMPLOYEE
OF AMKOR OR ONE OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR A MEMBER OF AMKOR'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS,
AS APPLICABLE, AS OF THE DATE ON WHICH THE NEW OPTIONS ARE GRANTED, WHICH WILL
BE NO EARLIER THAN SIX MONTHS AND ONE DAY AFTER THE CANCELLATION DATE.

The exercise price per share of the new options will be 100% of the fair
market value on the date of grant, as determined by the closing price of our
common stock reported by the Nasdaq National Market on the date of grant (the
exercise price for new options granted under the French Plan will in no event be
less than 80% of the average fair market value of our common stock during the
twenty trading days prior to the date of grant).

The number of shares subject to your new options will equal the number of
unexercised and outstanding shares subject to your properly tendered options.
The expiration date of each new option will be extended by one year beyond the
expiration date of the original option or earlier if your employment with Amkor
or one of our subsidiaries or directorship with Amkor, as applicable,
terminates. Subject to your continued status as an employee of Amkor or one of
its subsidiaries or a member of the Board of Directors of Amkor, as applicable,
each new option will vest and be exercisable as follows:

(i) On the one year anniversary of the grant date of your new option, your
new option will vest and become exercisable as to the number of shares that
would have been exercisable under the terms of your old option on the date your
new option was granted. For example, if the grant date of the new options is
June 12, 2003 and you tender an option to purchase 2,000 shares that would have
been fully vested as of June 12, 2003 had it not been cancelled in connection
with the Offer, you will be granted a new option to purchase 2,000 shares, all
of which will be subject to vesting until June 12, 2004.

(ii) Each month following the one year anniversary of the grant date of
your new option, any shares subject to your new option that have not yet vested
will vest and become exercisable as to that number of shares equal to one
forty-eighth (1/48th) of the total shares granted under the original option. For
example, if the grant date of the new option is June 12, 2003 and you tender an
option to purchase 4,000 shares, 3,333 of which would have been vested as of
June 12, 2003 and 667 of which would have been subject to continued vesting at a
rate of 83 shares per month following June 12, 2003 had the option not been
cancelled in connection with the Offer, you will be granted a new option to
purchase 4,000 shares, 3,333 of which shall be subject to vesting until June 12,
2004 and 667 of which will shall vest at a rate of 83 shares per month each
month following June 12, 2004.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, new options granted under the French
Plan will vest and become exercisable four years following the grant date of
such options.

-14-

Options that you do not tender for exchange or that we do not accept for
exchange retain their current exercise price and current vesting schedule and
remain outstanding until you exercise them or they expire by their terms.

As of October 31, 2002, options to purchase 14,807,226 of our shares were
issued and outstanding, all of which options were held by eligible employees.

THE OFFER

1. ELIGIBILITY

Individuals are "ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEES" if they are employees of Amkor or one
of our subsidiaries or members of the Board of Directors of Amkor as of the date
the Offer commences and the date on which the tendered options are cancelled,
including our executive officers. To clarify, non-employee affiliates and
contractors are not eligible to participate in the Offer. Please be sure to read
Section 17 below, in which we discuss the tax consequences of participating in
the Offer for eligible employees and members of the Board of Directors within
the United States. Special tax considerations may apply to employees resident or
otherwise subject to taxation in China, France, Japan, Korea, the Philippines,
Singapore, Switzerland, Taiwan and the United Kingdom. Please be sure to read
Section 18 below, in which we discuss the tax consequences of participating in
the Offer for eligible employees outside the United States and specific rules
that apply to new options in certain jurisdictions.

IN ORDER TO RECEIVE A NEW OPTION, YOU MUST REMAIN AN EMPLOYEE OF AMKOR OR
ONE OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR A MEMBER OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF AMKOR, AS
APPLICABLE, AS OF THE DATE THE NEW OPTIONS ARE GRANTED, WHICH WILL BE NO EARLIER
THAN THE FIRST BUSINESS DAY THAT IS SIX MONTHS AND ONE DAY AFTER THE
CANCELLATION DATE. IF, FOR ANY REASON, YOU DO NOT REMAIN AN EMPLOYEE OF AMKOR OR
ONE OF OUR SUBSIDIARIES OR A MEMBER OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS THROUGH THE DATE
WE GRANT THE NEW OPTIONS, YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE ANY NEW OPTIONS OR OTHER
COMPENSATION IN EXCHANGE FOR YOUR TENDERED OPTIONS THAT HAVE BEEN ACCEPTED FOR
EXCHANGE AND CANCELLED. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Offer, if
Amkor does not extend the Offer and your options are properly tendered by 5:00
p.m., Mountain Standard Time December 10, 2002, you will be granted new options
no earlier than June 12, 2003.

2. NUMBER OF OPTIONS; EXPIRATION DATE

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Offer, we will exchange all
outstanding, unexercised options to purchase shares of Amkor common stock
granted under the 1998 Plan, the Director Plan and the French Plan that are held
by eligible employees for a new option we will grant under either the 1998 Plan
or the French Plan. The options must be properly tendered and not validly
withdrawn in accordance with Section 5.

We are not accepting partial tenders of options. However, you may tender
the remaining portion of an option which you have partially exercised.
Accordingly, you may tender one or more of your option grants, but you may only
tender all of the unexercised shares covered by each option grant or none of
those shares. For example, and except as otherwise described below, if you hold
(i) an option grant to purchase 1,000 shares at $2.00 per share, 700 of which
you have already exercised, (ii) an option grant to purchase 1,000 shares at an
exercise price of $4.00 per share and (iii) an option grant to purchase 2,000
shares at an exercise price of $6.00 per share, you may tender:

o     none of your options;

o     your first option grant covering 300 remaining unexercised shares;

-16-

o     your second option grant covering all 1,000 shares;

o     your third option grant covering all 2,000 shares;

o     two of your three option grants; or

o     all three of your option grants.

In this example, the above describes your only choices. For example, you
may not tender your first option grant with respect to only 150 shares (or any
other partial amount) under that grant or less than all of the shares under the
second and third option grants.

In certain circumstances, for administrative convenience, a single option
grant was prepared as two option grants because the option was to become
exercisable as to a sufficient number of shares to exceed the $100,000 rule for
incentive stock options. As a result of that rule, in those circumstances a
single option grant will be treated as both an incentive stock option and a
nonstatutory stock option. Our stock administrator prepares this option grant as
two grants so as to be able to track whether an incentive or nonstatutory stock
option has been exercised. Therefore, your records may reflect that you were
granted two separate options on the same day when in reality it was one option
grant. Accordingly, if you had your option grant prepared as two option grants
for the reasons described above, the option will be treated as only one option
for purposes of this Offer. As a result, if you tender the option, both the
incentive stock option and the nonstatutory stock option must be tendered.

Also, if you decide to tender any of your option grants, then you must
tender all of your options that were granted to you during the six-month period
prior to the commencement of the Offer (that is, May 8, 2002). For example, if
you received an option grant in June 2001 and a grant in July 2002 and you want
to tender your June option grant, you would also be required to tender your July
option grant. You are not required to tender any other awards, including grants
of restricted stock.

If your options are properly tendered and accepted for exchange, we will
grant you a new option to purchase the number of shares equal to the number of
unexercised shares covered by the options you tender. The number of shares
subject to the new options will be subject to adjustments for any stock splits,
stock dividends and similar events and subject to the terms of this Offer. All
new options will be subject to the terms of:

o     either the 1998 Plan or the French Plan; and

o     a new option agreement between you and Amkor.

Once we have accepted options you tender, your options will be cancelled
and you will no longer have any rights under those options. We currently expect
to accept all properly tendered options promptly following the expiration of the
Offer. You have the right to change your election regarding particular tendered
options at any time before the expiration of the Offer. If, for any reason, you
do not remain an employee of Amkor or one of our subsidiaries or a member of
Amkor's Board of Directors, as applicable, through the date we grant the new
options, you will not receive any new options or other compensation in exchange
for your tendered options that have been accepted for exchange. This means that
if you resign, with or without a good reason, or die or we terminate your

-17-

employment for any reason or if your directorship terminates for any reason,
prior to the date we grant the new options, you will not receive anything for
the options that you tendered and we cancelled.

Options that you do not tender for exchange or that we do not accept for
exchange retain their current exercise price and current vesting schedule and
remain outstanding until you exercise them or they expire by their terms.

The term "EXPIRATION DATE" means 5:00 p.m., Mountain Standard Time, on
December 10, 2002, unless and until we, in our sole discretion, have extended
the period of time during which the Offer will remain open, in which event the
term "EXPIRATION DATE" refers to the latest time and date at which the Offer, as
so extended, expires. If you decide to tender your option or withdraw your
tendered options, we must receive, before 5:00 p.m., Mountain Standard Time, on
December 10, 2002 (or such date and time as we may extend the expiration of the
Offer), a properly completed and executed Election Form and any other documents
required by the Election Form, or as the case may be, a Notice to Change
Election from Accept to Reject. This is a one-time offer, and we will strictly
enforce the tender offer period and the cut-off time for the Offer. See Section
19 of this Offer to Exchange for a description of our rights to extend, delay,
terminate and amend the Offer.

If we decide to take any of the following actions, we will publish notice
or otherwise inform you in writing of such action:

o     we increase or decrease the amount of compensation offered for the
options;

o     we decrease the number of options eligible to be tendered in the
Offer; or

o     we increase the number of options eligible to be tendered in the
Offer by an amount that exceeds 2% of the shares issuable upon
exercise of the options that are subject to the Offer immediately
prior to the increase.

If the Offer is scheduled to expire within ten (10) business days from,
and including, the date that notice of the increase or decrease is first
published, sent or given in the manner specified in Section 19 of this Offer, we
will extend the Offer so that the Offer is open at least ten (10) business days
following the publication, sending or giving of notice.

We will also notify you of any other material change in the information
contained in this Offer.

For purposes of the Offer, a "BUSINESS DAY" means any day other than a
Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday of the United States and consists of the
time period from 12:01 a.m. through 12:00 midnight, Mountain Time.

3. PURPOSE OF THE OFFER.

We issued the options outstanding under the 1998 Plan, the Director Plan
and the French Plan in order to:

o     align the interests of employees, members of the Board of Directors
and stockholders; and

-18-

o     provide incentives for employees to achieve high levels of
performance and for members of the Board of Directors to provide
their services to the Company.

The Offer provides an opportunity for us to offer our eligible employees a
valuable incentive to stay with Amkor. Some of our outstanding options, whether
or not they are currently exercisable, have exercise prices that are
significantly higher than the current market price of our shares (that is, these
options are currently "underwater"). By making this Offer to exchange
outstanding options for new options that will have an exercise price equal to
the fair market value of the shares on the grant date, we intend to provide our
eligible employees with the benefit of owning options that over time may have a
greater potential to increase in value. However, because we will grant new
options no earlier than the first business day that is six months and one day
after the Cancellation Date, there is a risk that the new options may have a
higher exercise price than some or all of our current outstanding options.

From time to time we engage in strategic transactions with business
partners, customers and other third parties. We may engage in transactions in
the future with these or other companies which could significantly change our
structure, ownership, organization or management or the make-up of our Board of
Directors, and which could significantly affect the price of our shares. If we
engage in such a transaction or transactions before the date we grant the new
options, our shares could increase (or decrease) in value, and the exercise
price of the new options could be higher (or lower) than the exercise price of
options you elect to have cancelled as part of this Offer. For example, if our
common stock was acquired in a cash merger, the fair market value of our common
stock, and hence the price at which we grant the new options, would likely be at
a price at or near the cash price being paid for our common stock in the
transaction, yielding limited or no financial benefit to a recipient of the new
options for that transaction. In addition, in the event of an acquisition of
Amkor for stock, tendering option holders might receive new options to purchase
shares of a different issuer. The exercise price of any new options granted to
you in return for your tendered options will be the fair market value of the
underlying shares on the date of grant. You will be at risk of any such increase
in our share price before the grant date of the new options for these or any
other reasons.

The Promise to Grant Stock Option which we will give you is a binding
commitment, and we will require that any successor to our company be legally
obligated by that commitment.

Subject to the above, and except as otherwise disclosed in this Offer to
Exchange or in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, we
presently have no plans or proposals that relate to or would result in:

o     any extraordinary transaction, such as a merger, consolidation,
reorganization or liquidation, involving us or any of our
subsidiaries;

o     any purchase, sale or transfer of a material amount of our assets or
any of our subsidiaries;

o     any material change in our present dividend rate or policy, or our
indebtedness or capitalization;

o     any change in our present Board of Directors or management,
including a change in the number or term of directors or to fill any
existing board vacancies or to change any executive officer's
material terms of employment;

-19-

o     any other material change in our corporate structure or business;

o     our common stock being delisted from a national securities exchange
or not being authorized for quotation in an automated quotation
system operated by a national securities association;

o     our common stock becoming eligible for termination of registration
pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act;

o     the suspension of our obligation to file reports pursuant to Section
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act; or

o     the acquisition by any person of an amount of our securities or the
disposition of an amount of any of our securities, or any change in
charter or bylaws, or any actions which may impede the acquisition
of control of us by any person.

Neither we nor our Board of Directors make any recommendation as to
whether you should tender or not tender your options, nor have we authorized any
person to make any such recommendation. You are urged to evaluate carefully all
of the information in this Offer and to consult your own investment and tax
advisors. Bearing the risks of this Offer in mind, you must make your own
decision whether or not to tender your options for exchange.

4. PROCEDURES FOR TENDERING OPTIONS

Election Form and any other required documents to us via facsimile (fax # (480)
821-1470) or hand delivery to Amkor Technology, Inc., Attention: Cathy Loucks,

THE DELIVERY OF ALL DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING ELECTION FORMS AND ANY NOTICES TO

YOUR RISK. IN ALL CASES, YOU SHOULD ALLOW SUFFICIENT TIME TO ENSURE TIMELY
DELIVERY.

Determination of Validity; Rejection of Options; Waiver of Defects; No
Obligation to Give Notice of Defects.

We will determine, in our sole discretion, all questions as to the form of
documents and the validity, form, eligibility, including time of receipt, and
acceptance of any tender of options. Our determination of these matters will be
final and binding on all parties. We reserve the right to reject any or all
tenders of options that we determine are not in appropriate form or that we
determine are unlawful to accept. Otherwise, we will accept properly and timely
tendered options that are not validly withdrawn. We also reserve the right to
waive any of the conditions of the Offer or any

-20-

defect or irregularity in any tender of any particular options or for any
particular option holder, provided that if we grant any such waiver, it will be
granted to all option holders and tenders of options. No tender of options will
be deemed to have been properly made until all defects or irregularities have
been cured by the tendering option holder or waived by us. Neither we nor any
other person is obligated to give notice of any defects or irregularities in
tenders, nor will anyone incur any liability for failure to give any notice.
This is a one-time offer, and we will strictly enforce the Offer period, subject
only to an extension which we may grant in our sole discretion.

Our Acceptance Constitutes an Agreement.

Your tender of options pursuant to the procedures described above
constitutes your acceptance of the terms and conditions of the Offer. OUR
ACCEPTANCE FOR EXCHANGE OF YOUR OPTIONS TENDERED BY YOU THROUGH THE OFFER WILL
CONSTITUTE A BINDING AGREEMENT BETWEEN AMKOR AND YOU UPON THE TERMS AND SUBJECT
TO THE CONDITIONS OF THE OFFER.

Subject to our rights to extend, terminate and amend the Offer, we
currently expect that we will accept promptly after the expiration of the Offer
all properly tendered options that have not been validly withdrawn.

5. WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS AND CHANGE OF ELECTION

You may only withdraw your tendered options or change your election in
accordance with the provisions of this Section.

You may withdraw your tendered options at any time before 5:00 p.m.,
Mountain Standard Time, on December 10, 2002. If we extend the Offer beyond that
time, you may withdraw your tendered options at any time until the extended
expiration of the Offer. In addition, if we have not accepted your tendered
options for exchange by December 10, 2002, you may withdraw your tendered
options at any time after December 10, 2002.

To validly withdraw tendered options, you must deliver to Amkor
Technology, Inc., Attn: Cathy Loucks via facsimile (fax # (480) 821-1470) or
hand delivery, in accordance with the procedures listed in Section 4 above, a
signed and dated Notice to Change Election From Accept to Reject, with the
required information, while you still have the right to withdraw the tendered
options. Employees located outside the United States may also withdraw tendered
options by submitting a signed and dated Notice to Change Election From Accept
to Reject to the regional Amkor administrators as set forth in Schedule A
attached to this Offer to Exchange.

To validly change your election regarding the tender of particular
options, you must deliver a new Election Form to Amkor Technology, Inc., Attn:
Cathy Loucks via facsimile (fax # (480) 821-1470), or hand delivery, in
accordance with the procedures listed in Section 4 above. Employees located
outside the United States may also submit documents to the regional Amkor
administrators as set forth in Schedule A attached to this Offer to Exchange. If
you deliver a new Election Form that is properly signed and dated, it will
replace any previously submitted Election Form, which will be disregarded. The
new Election Form must be signed and dated and must specify:

o     the name of the option holder who tendered the options;

-21-

o     the grant number of all options to be tendered (the grant number is
the Grant ID number on your Optionee Statement);

o     the grant date of all options to be tendered;

o     the exercise price of all options to be tendered; and

o     the total number of unexercised option shares subject to each option
to be tendered.

Except as described in the following sentence, the Notice to Change
Election From Accept to Reject and any new or amended Election Form must be
executed by the option holder who tendered the options to be withdrawn exactly
as the option holder's name appears on the option agreement or agreements
evidencing such options. If the signature is by a trustee, executor,
administrator, guardian, attorney-in-fact, officer of a corporation or another
person acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, the signer's full title
and proper evidence of the authority of such person to act in that capacity must
be indicated on the Notice to Change Election From Accept to Reject or any new
or amended Election Form.

You may not rescind any withdrawal, and any options you withdraw will
thereafter be deemed not properly tendered for purposes of the Offer, unless you
properly re-tender those options before the Expiration Date by following the
procedures described in Section 4 above.

Neither we nor any other person is obligated to give notice of any defects
or irregularities in any Notice to Change Election From Accept to Reject or any
new or amended Election Form, nor will anyone incur any liability for failure to
give any notice. We will determine, in our sole discretion, all questions as to
the form and validity, including time of receipt, of Notices to Change Election
From Accept to Reject and new or amended Election Forms. Our determination of
these matters will be final and binding.

6. ACCEPTANCE OF OPTIONS FOR EXCHANGE AND ISSUANCE OF NEW OPTIONS

Upon the terms and conditions of the Offer and promptly following the
Expiration Date, we will accept for exchange and cancel options properly
tendered and not validly withdrawn before the Expiration Date. Once the options
are cancelled, you will no longer have any rights with respect to those options.
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Offer, if your options are properly
tendered and accepted for exchange, these options will be cancelled as of the
date of our acceptance, which we anticipate to be December 11, 2002, and you
will be granted new options no earlier than the first business day that is six
months and one day after the Cancellation Date. Our Board of Directors intends
to grant the new options promptly after the date that is at least six months and
one day after the Cancellation Date we cancel options tendered in this Offer.
Thus, subject to the terms and conditions of this Offer, if your options are
properly tendered by December 10, 2002, the scheduled Expiration Date of the
Offer, and accepted for exchange and cancelled on December 11, 2002, you will be
granted new options no earlier than June 12, 2003. If we accept and cancel
options properly tendered for exchange after December 10, 2002, the period in
which the new options will be granted will be similarly delayed. Promptly after
expiration of the Offer, we will issue to you a Promise to Grant Stock Option,
by which we will commit to grant stock options to you in accordance with the
terms of this Offer on a date no earlier than June 12, 2003.

-22-

If we accept options you tender in the Offer, you will not be granted any
other options until at least the grant date for your new options, if at all.
Future option grants not associated with the Offer are discretionary and will be
deferred in order to allow Amkor to avoid incurring compensation expense against
our earnings because of accounting rules that could apply to interim option
grants as a result of the Offer. In addition, you will not receive any options
if you are no longer an employee of Amkor or one of our subsidiaries or a member
of Amkor's Board of Directors, as applicable, on the date the new options are to
be granted.

Your new options will entitle you to purchase the same number of shares as
the number of shares subject to options you tender. The number of shares subject
to your new options will be as adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends
and similar events. If, for any reason, you are not an employee of Amkor or one
of our subsidiaries or a member of Amkor's Board of Directors, as applicable,
through the date we grant the new options, you will not receive any new options
or other compensation in exchange for your tendered options which have been
cancelled pursuant to this Offer.

We are not accepting partial tenders of options. You may only tender
options for all or none of the unexercised shares covered by any particular
grant of options. In certain circumstances, for administrative convenience, a
single option grant was prepared as two option grants because the option was to
become exercisable as to a sufficient number of shares to exceed the $100,000
rule for incentive stock options. As a result of that rule, in those
circumstances a single option grant will be treated as both an incentive stock
option and a nonstatutory stock option. Our stock administrator prepares this
option grant as two grants so as to be able to track whether an incentive or
nonstatutory stock option has been exercised. Therefore, your records may
reflect that you were granted two separate options on the same day when in
reality it was one option grant. Accordingly, if you had your option grant
prepared as two option grants for the reasons described above, the option will
be treated as only one option for purposes of this Offer. As a result, if you
tender the option, both the incentive stock option and the nonstatutory stock
option must be tendered. FOR CLARITY, IF YOU FAIL TO TENDER ALL OF THE
UNEXERCISED OPTIONS COVERED BY ANY PARTICULAR GRANT OF OPTIONS, THEN YOU WILL BE
INELIGIBLE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE OFFER WITH RESPECT TO ANY OPTION ASSOCIATED
WITH SUCH GRANT AND WE WILL REJECT ANY OPTIONS THAT YOU DO TENDER WITH RESPECT
TO SUCH GRANT.

If you decide to tender any of your option grants, then you must tender
all of your options that were granted to you during the six-month period prior
to the commencement of this offer (that is, May 8, 2002). For example, if you
received an option grant in June 2001 and a grant in July 2002 and you want to
tender your June option grant, you would also be required to tender your July
option grant. You are not required to tender any other awards.

For purposes of the Offer, we will be deemed to have accepted for exchange
options that are validly tendered and not properly withdrawn as, if and when we
give oral or written notice to the option holders of our acceptance for exchange
of such options, which notice may be made by press release, inter-office
memorandum or e-mail. Subject to our rights to extend, terminate and amend the
Offer, we currently expect that we will accept promptly following the Expiration
Date all properly

-23-

tendered options that are not validly withdrawn. We will send a Promise to Grant
Stock Option to each option holder from whom we accept properly tendered
options.

7. CONDITIONS OF THE OFFER.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Offer, we will not be required
to accept any options tendered for exchange, and we may terminate or amend the
Offer, or postpone our acceptance and cancellation of any options tendered for
exchange, in each case, subject to Rule 13e-4(f)(5) under the Securities
Exchange Act, if at any time on or after November 8, 2002, and prior to the
Expiration Date, any of the following events has occurred, or has been
determined by us to have occurred, and, in our reasonable judgment in any case
and regardless of the circumstances giving rise to the event, the occurrence 
of such event or events makes it inadvisable for us to proceed with the Offer or
with such acceptance and cancellation of options tendered for exchange:

o     there shall have been threatened or instituted or be pending any
action or proceeding by any governmental, regulatory or
administrative agency or authority that directly or indirectly
challenges the making of the Offer, the acquisition of some or all
of the tendered options pursuant to the Offer, or the issuance of
new options, or otherwise relates in any manner to the Offer, or
that, in our reasonable judgment, could materially and adversely
affect our business, condition, income, operations or prospects or
materially impair (such as by increasing the accounting or other
costs of the Offer to Amkor) the contemplated benefits of the Offer
to Amkor where the contemplated benefits include the opportunity for
us to align employee and stockholder interests and offer eligible
employees a valuable incentive to stay with Amkor and to achieve
high levels of performance;

o     there shall have been any action threatened, pending or taken, or
approval withheld, or any statute, rule, regulation, judgment, order
or injunction threatened, proposed, sought, promulgated, enacted,
entered, amended, enforced or deemed to be eligible to the Offer or
Amkor, by any court or any authority, agency or tribunal that, in
our reasonable judgment, would or might directly or indirectly:

(a) make the acceptance for exchange of, or issuance of new
options for, some or all of the tendered options illegal or otherwise restrict
or prohibit consummation of the Offer or that otherwise relates in any manner to
the offer;

(b) delay or restrict our ability, or render us unable, to
accept for exchange, or issue new options for, some or all of the tendered
options;

(c) materially impair (such as by increasing the accounting or
other costs of the Offer to Amkor) the contemplated benefits of the Offer to
Amkor where the contemplated benefits include the opportunity for us to align
employee and stockholder interests and offer eligible employees a valuable
incentive to stay with Amkor and to achieve high levels of performance; or

(d) materially and adversely affect Amkor's business,
condition, income, operations or prospects or materially impair the contemplated
benefits of the Offer to Amkor;

-24-

o     there shall have occurred any change, development, clarification or
position taken in generally accepted accounting standards that could
or would require us to record compensation expense against our
earnings in connection with the Offer for financial reporting
purposes;

o     a tender or exchange offer for some or all of our shares, or a
merger or acquisition proposal for Amkor, shall have been proposed,
announced or made by another person or entity or shall have been
publicly disclosed;

o     any change or changes shall have occurred in Amkor's business,
condition, assets, income, operations, prospects or stock ownership
that, in our reasonable judgment, is materially adverse to Amkor or
will materially and adversely impair the contemplated benefits of
the Offer to Amkor.

The conditions of the Offer are for Amkor's benefit. We may assert them in
our sole discretion regardless of the circumstances giving rise to them before
the Expiration Date. We may waive them, in whole or in part, at any time and
from time to time prior to the Expiration Date, in our sole discretion, whether
or not we waive any other condition of the Offer. Our failure at any time to
exercise any of these rights will not be deemed a waiver of any such rights. The
waiver of any of these rights with respect to particular facts and circumstances
will not be deemed a waiver with respect to any other facts and circumstances.
Any determination we make concerning the events described in this Section 7 will
be final and binding upon all persons.

8. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF CONSIDERATION.

We will issue new options to purchase shares of our common stock under
either the 1998 Plan or the French Plan in exchange for the outstanding options
properly tendered and accepted for exchange by us, which will be cancelled. The
number of shares subject to the new options to be granted to each option holder
will be equal to the number of unexercised shares subject to options tendered by
the option holder and accepted for exchange and cancelled by us. The number of
shares subject to new options will be adjusted for any stock splits, reverse
stock splits, stock dividends and similar events. If we receive and accept
tenders of all outstanding options from eligible employees, subject to the terms
and conditions of this Offer, we will grant new options to purchase a total of
approximately 14,807,226 shares of common stock. The shares issuable upon
exercise of these new options would equal approximately 9.0% of the total shares
of our common stock outstanding as of October 31, 2002.

9. EFFECT OF A CHANGE OF CONTROL PRIOR TO THE GRANTING OF NEW OPTIONS

If we are acquired or involved in a similar transaction before the new
options are granted, we would require the surviving corporation to assume our
obligation to grant new options. The Promise to Grant Stock Option that we will
give you is a binding commitment, and we will require any successor to our
company to be legally bound by that commitment. The new options would still be
granted on the new grant date, but they would be options to purchase the shares
of the surviving corporation. The exercise price would be equal to the fair
market value of the surviving company's stock on the date of grant.

-25-

You should be aware that these types of transactions could have
substantial effects on our share price, including potentially substantial
appreciation in the price of our shares. Depending on the structure of this type
of transaction, tendering option holders might be deprived of any further price
appreciation in the shares associated with the new options. For example, if our
shares were acquired in a cash merger, the fair market value of our shares, and
hence the price at which we grant the new options, would likely be a price at or
near the cash price being paid for the shares in the transaction, yielding
limited or no financial benefit to a recipient of the new options for that
transaction. In addition, in the event of an acquisition of our company for
stock, tendering option holders might receive new options to purchase shares of
a different issuer.

10. TERMS OF NEW OPTIONS

The new options will be granted under the 1998 Plan, unless you are a tax
resident of France, in which case you will be granted a new option under the
French Plan. A new option agreement will be entered into between Amkor and each
option holder who has tendered options in the Offer for every new option
granted. The terms and conditions of the new options may vary from the terms and
conditions of the options tendered for exchange but generally will not
substantially and adversely affect the rights of option holders; provided,
however, that if you are an employee who resides outside of the U.S., the terms
and conditions of the new options will be set forth in a separate agreement
between you and Amkor which may vary depending on your country of residence. All
new options will be granted as nonstatutory stock options (NSOs).

General.

The maximum number of shares registered for issuance under the 1998 Plan
is 16,058,351. As of October 31, 2002, 2,141,105 shares were available for grant
under the 1998 Plan and 138,643 shares were available for grant under the French
Plan. Each of these plans permit the granting of options that qualify as
incentive stock options (ISOs) as well as nonstatutory stock options (NSOs).

Administration.

The 1998 Plan and the French Plan are both administered by the Board of
Directors or the Compensation Committee appointed by the Board of Directors (the
"ADMINISTRATOR"). Subject to the other provisions of the 1998 Plan and the
French Plan, the Administrator has the power to determine the terms and
conditions of the options granted, including the fair market value of the
shares, the number of shares subject to the option and the exercisability of the
options.

Term.

Your new options will expire on the date one (1) year after the original
termination date of the old options for which they were exchanged, or earlier if
your employment with Amkor or one of our subsidiaries or directorship with
Amkor, as applicable, terminates.

Termination.

The termination of your option under the circumstances specified in this
section will result in the termination of your interests in the plan under which
your old option was granted. In addition, your option may terminate, together
with our stock option plans and all other outstanding options

-26-

issued to other service providers, following the occurrence of certain corporate
events, as described below.

In the event your status as an employee or a member of the Board of
Directors, as applicable, terminates, you may exercise your option within such
period of time as is determined by the Administrator at the time of grant, and
only to the extent that you are entitled to exercise it at the date of
termination. To the extent that you are not entitled to exercise an option at
the date of termination, and to the extent that you do not exercise such option
within the time specified, the option shall terminate.

Exercise Price.

The Administrator determines the exercise price at the time the option is
granted. For all employees and members of the Board of Directors, the exercise
price per share of the new options will be 100% of the fair market value on the
date of grant, as determined by the closing price of our common stock reported
by the Nasdaq National Market on the date of grant (the exercise price for new
options granted under the French Plan will in no event be less than 80% of the
average fair market value of our common stock during the twenty trading days
prior to the date of grant).

Vesting and Exercise.

Each stock option agreement specifies the term of the option and the date
when the option becomes exercisable. The terms of vesting are determined by the
Administrator. The number of shares subject to your new options will equal the
number of unexercised and outstanding shares subject to your properly tendered
options. The expiration date of each new option will be extended by one year
beyond the expiration date of the original option, subject to earlier if your
employment with Amkor or one of its subsidiaries or our directorship as
applicable, terminates. Subject to your continued status as an employee of Amkor
or one of its subsidiaries or a member of the Board of Directors of Amkor, as
applicable, each new option will vest and be exercisable as follows:

(i) On the one year anniversary of the grant date of your new option, your
new option will vest and become exercisable as to the number of shares that
would have been exercisable under the terms of your old option on the date your
new option was granted. For example, if the grant date of the new options is
June 12, 2003 and you tender an option to purchase 2,000 shares that would have
been fully vested as of June 12, 2003 had it not been cancelled in connection
with the Offer, you will be granted a new option to purchase 2,000 shares, all
of which will be subject to vesting until June 12, 2004.

(ii) Each month following the one year anniversary of the grant date of
your new option, any shares subject to your new option that have not yet vested
will vest and become exercisable as to that number of shares equal to one
forty-eighth (1/48th) of the total shares granted under the original option. For
example, if the grant date of the new option is June 12, 2003 and you tender an
option to purchase 4,000 shares, 3,333 of which would have been vested as of
June 12, 2003 and 667 of which would have been subject to continued vesting at a
rate of 83 shares per month following June 12, 2003 had the option not been
cancelled in connection with the Offer, you will be granted a new option to
purchase 4,000 shares, 3,333 of which shall be subject to vesting until June 12,
2004 and 667 of which will shall vest at a rate of 83 shares per month each
month following June 12, 2004.

-27-

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, new options granted under the French
Plan will vest and become exercisable four years after the grant date of such
options.

Payment of Exercise Price.

You may exercise your options, in whole or in part, either via the
internet, through your account established on the Salomon Smith Barney website,
or by contacting them directly in the US, (toll free), 1-800-477-3041, or from
outside the US, at (303) 572-4000. You must pay in full the option exercise
price at the time of exercise. The Administrator has the power to determine the
permissible methods of payment of the option exercise price under either such
plan.

Adjustments Upon Certain Events.

If there is a change in our capitalization, such as a stock split, reverse
stock split, stock dividend or other similar event, and the change results in an
increase or decrease in the number of issued shares without receipt of
consideration by us, an appropriate adjustment will be made to the price of each
option and the number of shares subject to each option

In the event there is a sale of all or substantially all of our assets, or
we merge with another corporation, your options will be assumed or replaced with
new options of the successor corporation. If the successor corporation does not
assume or substitute your options, they will automatically become fully vested
and exercisable for thirty (30) days from the date we provide you with notice of
the accelerated vesting as to options granted under the French Plan and ninety
(90) days from the date we provide you with notice of the accelerated vesting as
to options granted under the 1998 Plan and the option will terminate at the end
of such time period in either case.

In the event there is a liquidation or dissolution of Amkor, your
outstanding options will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of the
liquidation or dissolution. The Administrator may, however, provide for the
accelerated exercisability of any option.

Termination of Employment.

If, for any reason, you are not an employee of Amkor or one of our
subsidiaries or a member of the Board of Directors of Amkor, as applicable, from
the date you tender options through the date we grant the new options, you will
not receive any new options or any other compensation in exchange for your
tendered options that have been accepted for exchange. This means that if your
directorship terminates or you resign, with or without good reason, or die, or
we terminate your employment, with or without cause, before the date we grant
the new options, you will not receive anything for the options that you tendered
and, because we will have cancelled the options that you tendered, we will not
be able to return your old options to you.

Transferability of Options.

Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, new options may not be
sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred or disposed of in any manner
other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be
exercised, during your lifetime, only by you. If the Administrator makes an
option transferable, such option shall contain such additional terms and
conditions, as the Administrator deems appropriate.

-28-

Registration of Option Shares.

An aggregate of 16,058,351 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise
of options under the 1998 Plan have been registered under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT") on registration statements on Form S-8
filed with the SEC. All the shares issuable upon exercise of all new options to
be granted pursuant to the Offer will be registered under the Securities Act.
Unless you are one of our affiliates, you generally will be able to sell your
option shares free of any transfer restrictions under applicable U.S. securities
laws.

of this transaction under the laws of the country in which you live and work and
if you may be subject to the tax laws of more than one country.

agreements thereunder. We will promptly furnish you copies of these documents at

As of October 31, 2002, the last reported sale price during regular

$3.52 per share.

We recommend that you evaluate current market quotes for our common stock,
among other factors, before deciding whether or not to tender your options.

14. INTERESTS OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS; TRANSACTIONS AND ARRANGEMENTS
CONCERNING THE OPTIONS

A list of our directors and executive officers is attached to this Offer
to Exchange as Schedule C. As of October 31, 2002 our executive officers and
non-employee directors (10 persons) as a group owned options outstanding under
our 1998 Plan to purchase a total of 2,881,589 of our shares, which represented
approximately 20.7% of the shares subject to all options outstanding under that
plan as of that date and owned options outstanding under our Director Plan to
purchase a total of 155,000 of our shares, which represented 100% of the shares
subject to all options outstanding under that plan as of that date.

In the sixty (60) days prior to and including October 31, 2002, the
executive officers and directors of Amkor had the following transactions
involving options to purchase our common stock or in our common stock:

o     On September 5, 2002, John Neff, a member of Amkor's Board of
Directors purchased 100,000 shares of Amkor's common stock for
prices ranging from $1.98 per share to $2.04 per share.

Except as otherwise described above, to our knowledge there have been no
transactions in options to purchase our shares or in our shares which were
effected during the 60 days prior to and including October 31, 2002 by Amkor or,
to our knowledge, by any executive officer or director of Amkor.

15. STATUS OF OPTIONS ACQUIRED BY US IN THE OFFER; ACCOUNTING CONSEQUENCES
OF THE OFFER

Options we acquire through the Offer will be cancelled and the shares
subject to those options will be returned to the pool of shares available for
grants of new options under the plan under which such options were originally
granted. To the extent these shares are not fully reserved for issuance upon
exercise of the new options to be granted in connection with the Offer, the
shares returned to the either the 1998 Plan or the French Plan will be available
for future awards to employees and other eligible plan participants without
further stockholder action, except as required by applicable law or the rules of
the Nasdaq National Market or any other securities quotation system or any stock
exchange on which our shares are then quoted or listed.

We believe that we will not incur any compensation expense solely as a
result of the transactions contemplated by the Offer because:

o     we will grant new options no earlier than the first business day
that is six months and one day after the date that we accept and
cancel options tendered for exchange, and

o     the exercise price of all new options will equal the market value of
the shares of common stock on the date we grant the new options.

If we were to grant the new options on any date which is earlier than six
months and one day after the date we cancel the options accepted for exchange,
we would be subject to onerous accounting charges. We would be required for
financial reporting purposes to treat the new options as variable awards. This
means that we would be required to record the non-cash accounting impact of
decreases and increases in the company's share price as a compensation expense
for the new options issued under this Offer. We would have to continue this
variable accounting for these new options until they were exercised, forfeited
or terminated. The higher the market value of our shares, the greater the
compensation expense we would have to record. By deferring the grant of the new
options for six months and one day, we believe we will not have to treat the new
options as variable awards.

16. LEGAL MATTERS; REGULATORY APPROVALS.

We are not aware of any license or regulatory permit that appears to be
material to our business that might be adversely affected by our exchange of
options and issuance of new options as contemplated by the Offer, or of any
approval or other action by any government or governmental, administrative or
regulatory authority or agency, domestic or foreign, that would be required for
the acquisition or ownership of our options as contemplated herein. Should any
such approval or other action be required, we presently contemplate that we will
seek such approval or take such other action. We cannot assure you that any such
approval or other action, if needed, would be obtained or would be obtained
without substantial conditions or that the failure to obtain any such approval
or other action might not result in adverse consequences to our business. Our
obligation under the Offer to accept tendered options for exchange and to issue
new options for tendered options is subject to the conditions described in
Section 4.

If we are prohibited by applicable laws or regulations from granting new
options during the period beginning immediately after the day that is six months
and one day from the date that we cancel the options accepted for exchange, in
which period we currently expect to grant the new

-32-

options, we will not grant any new options. Such a prohibition could result from
changes in foreign or domestic laws, SEC rules, regulations or policies or
Nasdaq National Market listing requirements. We are unaware of any such
prohibition at this time, and we will use reasonable efforts to effect the
grant, but if the grant is prohibited throughout the period we will not grant
any new options and you will not get any other compensation for the options you
tendered. We do not anticipate any such prohibitions and are referring to the
possibility in an abundance of caution.

17. MATERIAL US FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

The following is a general summary of the material U.S. federal income tax
consequences of the exchange of options pursuant to the Offer. This discussion
is based on the Internal Revenue Code, its legislative history, Treasury
Regulations thereunder and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof
as of the date of the Offer, all of which are subject to change, possibly on a
retroactive basis. This summary does not discuss all of the tax consequences
that may be relevant to you in light of your particular circumstances, nor is it
intended to be applicable in all respects to all categories of option holders.
If you are an eligible employee based outside of the United States, we recommend
that you consult with your own tax advisor to determine the tax and social
contribution consequences of the Offer under the laws of the country in which
you live and work or under which you are otherwise subject to taxation (please
see Section 18).

Option holders who exchange outstanding options for new options should not
be required to recognize income for federal income tax purposes at the time of
the exchange. We believe that the exchange will be treated as a non-taxable
exchange. We advise all option holders considering exchanging their options to
meet with their own tax advisors with respect to the federal, state, and local
tax consequences of participating in the Offer. Please note that all new options
granted pursuant to the Offer will be nonstatutory stock options.

Incentive Stock Options ("ISOS")

In general, an option holder will not realize taxable income upon the
exercise of an ISO. However, an option holder's alternative minimum taxable
income will be increased by the amount that the aggregate fair market value of
the shares underlying the option, which is generally determined as of the date
of exercise, exceeds the aggregate exercise price of the option. If an option
holder sells the option shares acquired upon exercise of an ISO in a qualifying
disposition, any excess of the sale price of the option shares, over the
exercise price of the option will be treated as long-term capital gain taxable
to the option holder at the time of the sale. Any such capital gain will be
taxed at the long-term capital gain rate in effect at the time of sale. In this
event we will not be entitled to any tax deduction. The disposition of the
option shares is qualifying if it is made:

o     more than two years after the date the ISO was granted, and

o     more than one year after the date the ISO was exercised.

If you dispose of the shares before either holding period, the lesser of
(i) the excess of the fair market value of the shares at the date of exercise
over the exercise price, or (ii) the excess of the fair market value at the time
of disposition over the exercise price, will be taxable income to you at the
time of the disposition. Any additional gain or loss, if any, will be long-term
gain or short-term capital gain or loss, depending upon whether or not the
shares were sold more than one year after the

-33-

option was exercised. We will be entitled to a tax deduction equal to the amount
of any income you recognize upon a disqualifying disposition, if we comply with
certain reporting requirements.

You should note that there is a risk that any ISO you hold may be
affected, even if you do not participate in the exchange. We believe that you
will not be subject to current U.S. federal income tax if you do not elect to
participate in the option exchange program. We also believe that the option
exchange program will not change the U.S. federal income tax treatment of
subsequent grants and exercises of your ISO (and sales of shares acquired upon
exercise of such options) if you do not participate in the option exchange
program.

However, the IRS may characterize the option exchange program as a
"modification" of those ISOs, even if you decline to participate. In 1991, the
IRS issued a private letter ruling in which another company's option exchange
program was characterized as a "modification" of the ISO that could be
exchanged. This does not necessarily mean that our offer to exchange options
will be viewed the same way. Private letter rulings issued by the IRS contain
the IRS's opinion regarding only the specific facts presented by a specific
person or company. The person or company receiving the letter may rely on it,
but no other person or company may rely on the letter ruling or assume the same
opinion would apply to their situation, even if the facts at issue are similar.
While such letters do not provide certainty, they may indicate how the IRS will
view a similar situation. We, therefore, do not know if the IRS will assert the
position that our offer constitutes a "modification" of ISOs that can be
tendered. A successful assertion by the IRS of this position could extend the
options' holding period to qualify for favorable tax treatment. Accordingly, to
the extent you dispose of your ISO shares prior to the lapse of the new extended
holding period, your ISO could be taxed similarly to an NSO.

Nonstatutory Stock Options ("NSOS")

Under current law, an option holder will not realize taxable income upon
the grant of an NSO. However, when an option holder exercises the option, the
difference between the exercise price of the option, and the fair market value
of the shares subject to the option on the date of exercise will be compensation
income taxable to the option holder and is subject to withholding if the option
holder is an employee. Gain or loss on the subsequent sale of shares equal to
the difference between the sales price and the fair market value of the share on
the date of exercise will be taxed as capital gains. The gain or loss will be
deemed as long-term or short-term, depending on whether the shares were sold
more than one year after the option was exercised.

We will be entitled to a deduction equal to the amount of compensation
income taxable to the option holder if we comply with eligible reporting
requirements.

We recommend that you consult your own tax advisor with respect to the
federal, state and local tax consequences of participating in the Offer.

18. MATERIAL NON-US TAX CONSEQUENCES

The following are general summaries of the tax consequences of the
cancellation of existing options and grant of new options under the Offer for
eligible employees who are tax residents (or otherwise subject to the tax laws)
of China, France, Japan, Korea, the Philippines, Singapore, Switzerland, Taiwan
and the United Kingdom. This discussion is based on tax law in these

-34-

respective countries as of the date of the Offer, which is subject to change,
possibly on a retroactive basis. The information may be out of date at the time
you exercise your options or sell the shares you acquire upon exercise. This
summary is general in nature and does not discuss all of the tax consequences
that may be relevant to you in your particular circumstances, nor is it intended
to be applicable in all respects to all categories of option holders. If you are
a citizen or resident of another country or transfer your residence (or change
citizenship during the term of your new option) the information in this summary
may not be applicable to you. It is merely intended to alert you to some of the
tax information you may want to consider in making your decision. Please note
that tax laws change frequently and vary with your individual circumstances. WE
RECOMMEND THAT YOU CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO THE TAX
CONSEQUENCES OF PARTICIPATING IN THE OFFER.

A. Will the voluntary tendering of my outstanding options trigger a taxable
event?

No, a taxable event should not be triggered when you tender your
outstanding stock options.

B. Will the granting of new Stock Options trigger a taxable event?

-35-

No, the granting of new stock options will not trigger a taxable event.

C. When will my new Stock Options become taxable assuming that I am an active
employee at the time of acceptance of the stock option exchange and at the time
that the new options are granted to me?

Upon exercise of your new stock options, you will not be subject to tax,
as your stock options are "qualified" stock options for French corporate and
income tax purposes and the options are not expected to be granted at an
"excess" discount because the option grant price is not expected to be at a
discount exceeding 5% of the average quotation of the shares over the twenty
(20) quotation days preceding the grant date of the new options. Please note,
your original holding period (as described below) will not carry over from the
date of grant of your tendered options. The holding period will restart on the
date of grant of your new stock options.

When you sell your shares, you will pay tax on 1) the difference between
the fair market value ("FMV") of the underlying stock at exercise and the
exercise price; and 2) the excess of the sales proceeds over your FMV at
exercise, if any.

(1) The tax rate applicable on the spread is dependent on (i) the amount
of the spread; and (ii) how long you held the shares from the date you were
granted the options, you exercised the options and you sold the underlying
shares.

(2) The tax rate applicable on any additional capital gain is the standard
rate applicable to all capital gains.

Shares sold more than 4 years but less than 6 years from the option grant
date OR shares sold 6 years or more from the option grant date but less than 2
years from the exercise date:

(1) You will be subject to tax on the spread that is less than or equal to
EUR 152,500 at a flat rate of 40% (including 10% for CSG, CRDS and social levy).
Any additional spread that exceeds EUR 152,500 is taxed at a flat rate of 50%
(including 10% for CSG, CRDS, and social levy). Please note that you may opt to
be taxed at your regular marginal tax rate (plus a 10% surcharge) if this rate
is more favorable.

No social security contributions are imposed on the spread at exercise or sale.

(2) The capital gain, if any, is the difference between the sale price and
the fair market value of the shares upon exercise. The capital gain is only
taxable if the annual sales proceeds realized by your household during the year
exceed the annual ceiling of EUR 7,650. If the annual sales proceeds exceed this
threshold, capital gains tax is imposed at a flat rate of 26% (including 10% for
CSG, CRDS, and social levy).

SHARES SOLD AT LEAST 6 YEARS OR MORE FROM THE OPTION GRANT DATE AND 2 YEARS OR
MORE FROM THE EXERCISE DATE:

(1) You will be subject to tax on the amount of the spread that does not
exceed EUR 152,500 at a flat rate of 26% (including 10% CSG, CRDS, and social
levy). The amount of the spread in

-36-

excess of EUR 152,500 is taxed at a flat rate of 40% (including 10% CSG, CRDS,
and social levy. As an alternative, you may opt to be taxed at your regular
marginal tax rate (plus a 10% surcharge) if this rate is more favorable.

No social security contributions are imposed on the spread at exercise or sale.

(2) The capital gain, (i.e. the difference between the sale price and the
fair market value of the shares upon exercise), if any, is only taxable if the
annual sales proceeds realized by your household during the year exceed the
annual ceiling of EUR 7,650. If the annual sales proceeds exceed this threshold,
capital gains tax is imposed at a flat rate of 26% (including 10% CSG, CRDS, and
social levy).

D. Will the Company withhold taxes or report any benefit arising from the Stock
Options on my behalf?

If you are an active employee when the new options are granted, we have
the following reporting obligations:

o     We will issue an exercise statement to be delivered to you and
the tax authorities before February 15 of the year following
exercise; and

o     We will not withhold any income tax if the French corporate
and income tax conditions are respected (notably the holding
period between the grant date and the sale date).

-37-

You are solely responsible for reporting any compensation and benefits
received on your annual French income tax return (Form 2042, Form 2047 for
foreign investment income, and Form 2074 for capital gains). Your tax return
must be submitted to the tax authorities before 1 March of the year following
income recognition (the exact filing deadline can be modified by the tax
authorities in the beginning of the year).

You must attach the exercise certificate provided by the company to your
tax return when you file your French personal income tax return for the year in
which you exercise your options.

Additionally, you must also report any foreign accounts held abroad
(including brokerage accounts) to the foreign tax authorities on your French
personal income tax return for the year of exercise.

Shares acquired on exercise may be subject to French wealth tax if the
value of your total net assets on 1 January exceeds EUR 720,000. Your wealth tax
return as well as the corresponding wealth tax payment is due by 15 June of the
same year. Please consult your financial/tax advisor for further details.

TAX RESIDENTS OF KOREA

A. Will the granting of new Stock Options trigger a taxable event?

No, the granting of new stock options will not trigger a taxable event.

B. When will my new Stock Options become taxable?

You will be subject to tax upon the exercise of your new stock option. The
taxable amount is equal to the "spread," which is difference between the fair
market value ("FMV") of the stock at exercise over your exercise price. The
spread is subject to tax at your regular personal income tax rate of up to 39.6%
(including a resident tax of 10%). National Pension Contribution and National
Health insurance taxes will also be imposed on the spread. National Pension
Contributions are payable at a rate of 4.5% on monthly wages up to 3,600,000
Won. National Health Insurance Tax is payable at a rate of 1.7%, with no
ceiling.

Please note that you will be deemed to have received Class B income and
are entitled to exclude 10% of your gain if you pay tax, voluntarily, through a
licensed taxpayer association on a monthly basis.

When you sell your shares, you will recognize a capital gain equal to the
excess of your sales proceeds over the FMV of the shares on the date of
exercise. You will be taxed on this gain at a flat rate of 22%, including
resident tax, assuming it exceeds Won 2,500,000.

If your capital gains for the year exceed Won 2,500,000, the gain at sale
must be reported on your annual capital gain tax return ("Yang-Do-So-Deuk-Sye
Sin-Goh-Seo") by May 31st of the year following the sale of your shares. A
preliminary return to report your capital gain is due within two months
following the end of the quarter in which the sale of shares occurs in order to
claim a 10% credit.

C. Will the Company withhold taxes or report any benefit arising from the Stock
Options on my behalf?

The Company will not withhold income taxes or report any benefit arising
from your stock options. However, the Company will withhold social taxes over
the 12-month period immediately following your option exercise. You may be
required to report the spread at exercise on your global income tax return
("Jong-Hab-So-Deuk-Sye Sin-Goh-Seo") by May 31st of the year following income
recognition.

You are only required to file a global income tax return if you have more
than one class of income (i.e., Class A Income and Class B income) or if you
have Class B income that has not been reported through a Class B taxpayer's
association. Your tax return and additional taxes, if any, are due by May 31st
following the end of the tax year.

-39-

portion of your income at exercise from tax, you may have additional reporting
requirements. You will be required to report income on a monthly basis.
Additionally, at year-end, you are required to make a year-end settlement for
the tax amount withheld during the year. You are required to file your global
income tax return if there is any additional income, which has not been reported

TAX RESIDENTS OF SINGAPORE

A.    Will the voluntary tendering of my outstanding options trigger a taxable
event?

-40-

Potentially. The voluntary tendering of your outstanding options could
technically be regarded as a "release of rights" under the Singapore tax
legislation, and thus, deemed a taxable event.

The Inland Revenue could deem the market value of the shares under the
original options to be taxable at the time the original options are cancelled.
Please note that the Inland Revenue could also view the cancellation of the
original options and grant of the new options as separate transactions. If so,
no relief would be available upon exercise of the new options for the tax paid
upon tender of the old options.

B.    Will the granting of new Stock Options trigger a taxable event?

No, the granting of new stock options will not trigger a taxable event.

C.    When will my new Stock Options become taxable?

In addition to the possibility of being taxed upon the voluntary tendering
of your outstanding option, you will also be subject to tax upon exercise of
your new stock options. The taxable amount is equal to the "spread," which is
the difference between the fair market value ("FMV") of the underlying stock at
exercise and the exercise price. The spread is subject to income tax at marginal
personal income tax rates of up to 26%.

You will not be subject to tax in Singapore upon sale of the underlying
shares, as Singapore does not impose a capital gains tax.

D.    Will the Company withhold taxes or report any benefit arising from the
Stock Options on my behalf?

The Company will not withhold taxes arising from your stock options.
Please note that if you are neither a Singapore citizen nor a permanent resident
in Singapore and you cease employment in Singapore, the Company will be
responsible for withholding tax before you depart the country. Your reporting
requirements will also differ. However, the Company will report any benefit
arising from your stock options the Return of Employee's Remuneration (Form
IR8A/E) as well as disclose the number of shares acquired, the FMV of the
shares, and the exercise price paid to the authorities.

If you realize a taxable gain, you must remit the appropriate taxes to the
tax authorities. You are also responsible for reporting any gain realized upon
exercise of your options on your Form B/B1 by April 15 of the year following the
year in which income is recognized. Resulting income tax should be paid within
30 days of receiving an assessment from the tax authorities, or in installments
approved by the tax authorities.

No, a taxable event should not be triggered when you tender your
outstanding stock options. Please note that you will not be entitled to claim a
refund or claim a credit against future tax for the taxes that may have been
paid upon the grant of your tendered stock options.

-41-

B.    Will the granting of new Stock Options trigger a taxable event?

The granting of new stock options will be considered a new grant and will
trigger a taxable event. The Company is responsible for valuing your options,
and you will be subject to income and social tax on this value. You will be
subject to income tax at your regular personal income tax rate, which vary by
canton and commune. Under current law, the combined federal, cantonal, and
communal tax rates are between 25% and 50%. Social taxes are imposed as follows:

-     AHV/EO/IV (social security contributions) - 5.05% on all income
without a ceiling.

-     ALV (unemployment insurance) - 1.5% on first CHF 106,800 of annual
compensation income and 1% annual income between CHF 106,801 and CHF
267,000.

C.    When will my new Stock Options become taxable?

Other than the tax consequences listed above, there will be no further
taxes due. Tax will not be imposed upon sale of the underlying shares.

D.    Will the Company withhold taxes or report any benefit arising from the 
Stock Options on my behalf?

If you are a "B" permit holder, the Company will withhold any applicable
income, cantonal, and communal taxes. You must report any taxable income on your
personal income tax return. The due date for this depends on the respective
canton in which you reside. If you are a "C" permit holder, the Company will not
withhold taxes on your behalf. However, the Company will report any benefit
arising from your stock options. You must remit the appropriate taxes due to the
tax authorities and report any taxable income recognized on your personal income
tax return. The due date for this depends on the respective canton in which you
reside.

TAX RESIDENTS OF TAIWAN

A.    Will the voluntary tendering of my outstanding options trigger a taxable
event?

No, a taxable event should not be triggered when you tender your
outstanding stock options.

B.    Will the granting of new Stock Options trigger a taxable event?

No, the granting of new stock options will not trigger a taxable event.

C.    When will my new Stock Options become taxable?

You will be subject to tax upon the exercise of your new stock options.
The taxable amount is equal to the "spread," which is the difference between the
fair market value ("FMV") of the underlying stock at exercise over the exercise
price. The spread is subject to tax at the regular personal income tax rates of
up to 40%.

You will not be subject to tax upon sale of the underlying shares.

-42-

D.    Will the Company withhold taxes or report any benefit arising from the
Stock Options on my behalf?

No, the Company will not withhold taxes or report any benefit arising from
your stock options. You are solely responsible for reporting any income you
realize upon the exercise of your options to the Taiwanese tax authorities on
your annual tax return between February 22nd and March 31st of the tax year
following the year of exercise.

TAX RESIDENTS OF THE UNITED KINGDOM

A.    Will the voluntary tendering of my outstanding options trigger a taxable
event?

No, a taxable event should not be triggered when you tender your
outstanding stock options.

B.    Will the granting of new Stock Options trigger a taxable event?

No, the granting of new stock options will not trigger a taxable event.

C.    When will my new Stock Options become taxable?

You will be subject to tax upon exercise of your new stock options. The
taxable amount is equal to the "spread," which is the difference between the
fair market value ("FMV") of the underlying stock at exercise and the exercise
price. The spread is subject to income tax at rates of up to 40% and to National
Insurance Contributions at a rate of 10%. Please note National Insurance

Contributions are only imposed on annual earnings of up to L30,420 for the
2002/03 tax year.

When you sell your shares, you will recognize a capital gain equal to the
excess of your sales proceeds over the FMV of the shares on the date of
exercise. You will be subject to capital gains tax at ordinary income tax rates
of up to 40%. Please note that your first L7,700 of capital gain received during
the tax year is exempt from UK tax.

If the shares are sold on the date of exercise the proceeds of sale can be
used to compute the income and social tax liability. Otherwise it is possible to
deduct an amount for "notional selling costs" from the FMV of the stock to
compute the taxable amount. This is because the amount to be charged to tax is
determined by reference to "the amount that can reasonably be expected to be
obtained from a sale in the open market at that time".

Depending on the period of time you have held the shares, the capital gain
may be reduced by taper relief. The issue of taper relief depends on your
personal tax position, and you should consult your personal tax advisor for
further information.

D.    Will the Company withhold taxes or report any benefit arising from the
Stock Options on my behalf?

The Company will withhold taxes and report any benefit arising from your
stock options. You are responsible for reporting the spread at option exercise
and the capital gain at sale to the Inland Revenue on your Individual
Self-Assessment Return. If Inland Revenue calculates your tax

-43-

liability, your return must be filed with Inland Revenue by 30 September
following the end of the tax year of exercise or sale, respectively.
Alternatively, if you choose to assess your own tax liability, your return
should be filed by 31 January following the end of the tax year. Please note
that the due date for any additional income taxes will generally be the same
regardless of which method you choose above.

Additionally, you will also need to complete the additional share scheme
pages S1 and S2 and file them with your self-assessment tax return. Details such
as the number of options granted and exercised, number of shares acquired, grant
price, date of grant and details of share acquired must be completed on pages S1
and S2.

We expressly reserve the right, in our sole discretion, at any time and
from time to time, and if any event listed in Section 7 has occurred or is
deemed by us to have occurred, to extend the period of time during which the
Offer is open and thereby delay the acceptance for exchange of any options by

a public announcement thereof.

We also expressly reserve the right, in our reasonable judgment, prior to

publish, advertise or otherwise communicate any such public announcement other
than by making a press release to the Dow Jones News Service or other similar
nationally recognized news service.

concerning the Offer, or if we waive a material condition of the Offer, we will
extend the Offer to the extent required by Rules 13e-4(d)(2) and 13e-4(e)(3)
under the Securities Exchange Act. These rules require that the

-44-

minimum period during which an offer must remain open following material changes
in the terms of the Offer or information concerning the Offer, other than a
change in price or a change in percentage of securities sought, will depend on
the facts and circumstances, including the relative materiality of such terms or
information.

If we decide to take any of the following actions, we will publish
notice or otherwise inform you in writing of these actions:

-     we increase or decrease the amount of compensation offered for the
options,

-     we decrease the number of options eligible to be tendered in the Offer, or

-     we increase the number of options eligible to be tendered in the Offer by
an amount that exceeds 2% of the shares issuable upon exercise of the
options that are subject to the Offer immediately prior to the increase.

If the Offer is scheduled to expire within ten (10) business days from,
and including, the date that notice of such increase or decrease is first
published, sent or given in the manner specified in this Section, we will extend
the Offer so that the Offer is open at least ten (10) business days following
the publication, sending or giving of notice.

For purposes of the Offer, a "BUSINESS DAY" means any day other than a
Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday of the United States and consists of the
time period from 12:01 a.m. through 12:00 midnight, Eastern Time.

AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(U.S. DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND DOLLAR PER SHARE DATA)

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Amkor
Technology, Inc. and its subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements
reflect the elimination of all significant intercompany accounts and
transactions. The investments in and the operating results of 20% to 50% owned
companies are included in the consolidated financial statements using the equity
method of accounting.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain
previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current
presentation principally the presentation of gains and losses from the disposal
of fixed assets.

Foreign Currency Translation

Substantially all of the foreign subsidiaries and investee companies use
the U.S. dollar as their functional currency. Accordingly, monetary assets and
liabilities which were originally denominated in a foreign currency are
translated into U.S. dollars at month-end exchange rates. Non-monetary items
which were originally denominated in foreign currencies are translated at
historical rates. Gains and losses from such translation and from transactions
denominated in foreign currencies are included in other (income) expense.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments, for which we are subject to credit risk, consist
principally of accounts receivable, cash and cash equivalents, short-term
investments and marketable securities. With respect to accounts receivable, we
mitigate our credit risk by selling primarily to well established companies,
performing ongoing credit evaluations and making frequent contact with
customers. We have mitigated our credit risk with respect to cash and cash
equivalents, as well as short-term investments, through diversification of our
holdings into various money market accounts, U.S. treasury bonds, federal
mortgage backed securities, high grade municipal bonds, commercial paper and
preferred stocks.

Risks and Uncertainties

Our future results of operations involve a number of risks and
uncertainties. Factors that could affect future operating results and cause
actual results to vary materially from historical results include, but are not
limited to, dependence on the highly cyclical nature of the semiconductor
industry, our high leverage and the restrictive covenants contained in the
agreements governing our indebtedness, uncertainty as to the demand from our
customers over both the long-and short-term, competitive pricing and declines in
average selling prices we experience, our dependence on our relationship with
Anam Semiconductor, Inc. (ASI) for all of our wafer fabrication output, the
timing and volume of orders relative to our production capacity, the absence of
significant backlog in our business, fluctuations in manufacturing yields, the
availability of financing, our competition, our dependence on international
operations and sales, our dependence on raw material and equipment suppliers,
exchange rate fluctuations, our dependence on key personnel, difficulties
integrating acquisitions, the enforcement of intellectual property rights by or
against us, our need to comply with existing and future environmental
regulations, the results of ASI as it impacts our financial results and
political and economic uncertainty resulting from terrorist activities.

AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months
or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined
principally by using a moving average method. In general we order raw materials
based on the customers forecasted demand and we do not maintain any finished
goods inventory. If our customers change their forecasted requirements and we
are unable to cancel our raw materials order or if our vendor requires that we
order a minimum quantity that exceeds the current forecasted demand, we will
experience a build-up in raw material inventory. We will either seek to recover
the cost of the materials from our customers or utilize the inventory in
production. However, we may not be successful in recovering the cost from our
customers or being able to use the inventory in production, which we would
consider as part of our reserve estimate. Our reserve for excess and obsolete
inventory is based on forecasted demand we receive from our customers. When a
determination is made that the inventory will not be utilized in production it
is written-off and disposed.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is
calculated by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of
depreciable assets. Accelerated methods are used for tax purposes. Depreciable
lives follow:

Buildings and improvements............................    10 to 30 years
Machinery and equipment...............................    3 to 5 years
Furniture, fixtures and other equipment...............    3 to 10 years

Cost and accumulated depreciation for property retired or disposed of are
removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in
earnings. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as
incurred. Depreciation expense was $356.7 million, $262.0 million and $158.9
million for 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

Goodwill and Acquired Intangibles

Goodwill is recorded when there is an excess of the cost of an acquisition
over the fair market value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible
assets acquired. Acquired intangibles includes patents and workforce-in-place.
Goodwill and acquired intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over a
period of ten years. The unamortized balances recorded for goodwill and acquired
intangibles are evaluated periodically for potential impairment based on the
future estimated undiscounted cash flows of the acquired businesses. An
impairment loss, if any, would be measured as the excess of the carrying value
over the fair value.

Other Noncurrent Assets

Other noncurrent assets consist principally of deferred debt issuance
costs, security deposits, the cash surrender value of life insurance policies,
deferred income taxes and tax credits.

Due from and to affiliates

Due from affiliates primarily relates to advances made to a Philippine
realty corporation in which we own 40%. Such investment is accounted for under
the equity method of accounting. Given the foreign ownership restrictions of
foreigners in the Philippines, the affiliated entity owns the land on which our
Philippine factories are located. The affiliated entity has no long-term
obligations other than their obligations to us and we have not extended
guarantees or other commitments to the entity. Due to affiliates primarily
relates to our transactions with Anam Semiconductor, Inc. (See Note 3).

Other Noncurrent Liabilities

Other noncurrent liabilities consist primarily of pension obligations and
noncurrent income taxes payable.

AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

Receivable from Stockholder

Amkor Electronics, Inc. (AEI), which was merged into our company just
prior to the initial public offering of our company in May 1998, elected to be
taxed as an S Corporation under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986 and comparable state tax provisions. As a result, AEI did not recognize
U.S. federal corporate income taxes. Instead, the stockholders of AEI were taxed
on their proportionate share of AEI's taxable income. Accordingly, no provision
for U.S. federal income taxes was recorded for AEI. Just prior to the initial
public offering, AEI terminated its S Corporation status at which point the
profits of AEI became subject to federal and state income taxes at the corporate
level. The receivable from stockholder included in stockholders' equity
represents the balance due from Mr. & Mrs. Kim and the Kim family trusts related
to the finalization of AEI's tax returns.

Revenue Recognition and Risk of Loss

Our company does not take ownership of customer-supplied semiconductor
wafers. Title and risk of loss remains with the customer for these materials at
all times. Accordingly, the cost of the customer-supplied materials is not
included in the consolidated financial statements. Revenues from packaging
semiconductors and performing test services are recognized upon shipment or
completion of the services. We record wafer fabrication services revenues upon
shipment of completed wafers. Such policies are consistent with provisions in
the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101,
"Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements."

Research and Development Costs

Research and development expenses include costs directly attributable to
the conduct of research and development programs primarily related to the
development of new package designs and improving the efficiency and capabilities
of our existing production process. Such costs include salaries, payroll taxes,
employee benefit costs, materials, supplies, depreciation on and maintenance of
research equipment, fees under licensing agreements, services provided by
outside contractors, and the allocable portions of facility costs such as rent,
utilities, insurance, repairs and maintenance, depreciation and general support
services. All costs associated with research and development are expensed as
incurred.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, which
prohibits the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business
combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and addresses the accounting for
purchase method business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. Also in
June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.
For existing acquisitions, the provisions of SFAS No. 142 were effective as of
January 1, 2002 and are generally effective for business combinations initiated
after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142 includes provisions regarding the
reclassification of certain existing recognized intangibles as goodwill,
reassessment of the useful lives of existing recognized intangibles, the
cessation of amortization related to goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles,
and the testing for impairment of goodwill and other intangibles annually or
more frequently if circumstances warrant. Additionally, SFAS No. 142 requires
that within six months of adoption, goodwill be tested for impairment at the
reporting unit level as of the date of adoption. If any impairment is indicated
to have existed upon adoption, it should be measured and recorded before the end
of the year of adoption. SFAS No. 142 requires that any goodwill impairment loss
recognized as a result of initial application be reported in the first interim
period of adoption as a change in accounting principle, and that the income per
share effects of the accounting change be separately disclosed.

Upon adoption, we will reclassify intangible assets previously identified
as an assembled workforce intangible to goodwill. Additionally, we will stop
amortizing goodwill of $659.1 million, as well as goodwill of $118.6 million
associated with our investment in ASI accounted for under the equity method of
accounting. Based on the current levels of goodwill, the cessation of
amortization will reduce amortization expense and, with respect to equity
investees, it will reduce equity in loss of investees, annually by approximately
$80 million and $36 million, respectively. We have reassessed the useful lives
of our identified intangibles and they continue to be appropriate. Because of
the extensive effort needed to comply with the application of SFAS No. 142, the
impairment loss, if any, related to goodwill upon adoption of this statement
cannot be estimated at this time. Goodwill as of January 1, 2002 is attributable
to two reporting units, assembly and test services. An appraisal firm has been
engaged to assist in the determination of the fair value of our reporting units.
By June 30, 2002, any indication of goodwill impairment will be determined by
comparing the fair value of the reporting units with its carrying value as of
January 1, 2002.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143 "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations." This statement establishes standards for accounting for
obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets. The
standard is required to be adopted by us beginning on January 1, 2003. In August
2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of
Long-Lived Assets." This statement addresses financial accounting and reporting
for the impairment and disposal of long-lived assets. This standard is required
to be adopted by us beginning on January 1, 2002. We are currently in the
process of evaluating the effect the adoption of these standards will have on
our consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows, if
any.

2.    ACQUISITIONS IN JAPAN AND TAIWAN

Taiwan Semiconductor Technology Corporation and Sampo Semiconductor
Corporation. In July 2001, we acquired, in separate transactions, 69% of Taiwan
Semiconductor Technology Corporation (TSTC) and 98% of Sampo Semiconductor
Corporation (SSC) in Taiwan. Including our prior ownership interest in TSTC, as
of December 31, 2001, we owned 94% of the outstanding shares of TSTC. The
combined purchase price was paid with the issuance of 4.9 million shares of our
common stock valued at $87.9 million based on our closing share price two days
prior to each acquisition, the assumption of $34.8 million of debt and $3.7
million of cash consideration, net of acquired cash. The carrying value of our
prior investment in TSTC was $17.8 million. In connection with earn-out
provisions that provided for additional purchase price based in part on the
results of the acquisitions, we issued an additional 1.8 million shares in
January 2002. The results of TSTC and Sampo have been included in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements since the acquisition dates. In
accordance with the new accounting standards related to purchase business
combinations and goodwill, we recorded intangible assets, principally goodwill,
of $23.8 million as of the acquisition date that is nonamortizable. The combined
fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was approximately
$95.3 million for fixed assets, $39.5 million for accounts receivable, inventory
and other assets, $34.8 million of assumed debt and $10.1 million for other
assumed liabilities. The minority interest as of the acquisition date was $4.3
million.

Amkor Iwate Corporation. In January 2001, Amkor Iwate Corporation
commenced operations and acquired from Toshiba a packaging and test facility
located in the Iwate prefecture in Japan. The total purchase price of $77.1
million was financed by a short-term note payable to Toshiba of $21.1 million,
$47.0 million in other financing from a Toshiba financing affiliate and cash on
hand. Amkor Iwate provides packaging and test services to Toshiba's Iwate
factory under a long-term supply agreement based on a cost plus calculation. We
currently own 60% of Amkor Iwate and Toshiba owns the balance of the outstanding
shares. By January 2004 we are required to purchase the remaining 40% of the
outstanding shares of Amkor Iwate from Toshiba. The share purchase price will be
determined based on the performance of the joint venture during the three-year
period but cannot be less than 1 billion Japanese yen and cannot exceed 4
billion Japanese yen. The results of Amkor Iwate have been included in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition.
Acquired intangibles as of the acquisition date, based on estimates of fair
value, were $21.4 million and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over
5 to 10 years. Acquired intangibles include the value of acquired technology and
of a workforce-in-place. The combined fair value of the assets acquired and
liabilities assumed was approximately $42.4 million for fixed assets, $14.0
million for inventory and other assets, and $0.7 million for assumed
liabilities.

3.    ACQUISITIONS FROM ANAM SEMICONDUCTOR, INC. (ASI) AND OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH
ASI

Acquisitions from and investment in Anam Semiconductor, Inc.

On May 1, 2000 we completed our purchase of ASI's three remaining
packaging and test operations, known as K1, K2 and K3, for a purchase price of
$950.0 million. In addition we made a commitment to a $459.0 million equity
investment in ASI, and fulfilled this commitment in installments taking place
over the course of 2000. We financed the acquisition and investment with the
proceeds of a $258.8 million convertible subordinated notes offering, a $410.0
million private equity financing, $750.0 million of new secured bank debt and
approximately $103 million from cash on hand. As of December 31, 2001, we had
invested a total of $500.6 million in ASI including an equity investment of
$41.6 million made on October 1999. We owned as of December 31, 2001 42% of the
outstanding voting stock of ASI. We will continue to report ASI's results in our
financial statements through the equity method of accounting.

The amount by which the cost of our investment exceeds our share of the
underlying assets of ASI as of the date of our investment is being amortized on
a straight-line basis over a five-year period. The amortization is included in
our consolidated statement of income within equity in income of investees. As of
December 31, 2001, the unamortized excess of the cost of our equity investment
in ASI above our share of the underlying net assets is $118.6 million

45

AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

The acquisition of K1, K2 and K3 was accounted for as a purchase.
Accordingly, the results of K1, K2 and K3 have been included in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition. Goodwill and
acquired intangibles as of the acquisition date were $555.8 million and are
being amortized on a straight-line basis over a 10 year period. Acquired
intangibles include the value of acquired patent rights and of a
workforce-in-place. The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities
assumed was approximately $394 million for fixed assets, $9 million for
inventory and other assets, and $9 million for assumed liabilities.

On May 17, 1999, we purchased ASI's packaging and test business known as
K4. The purchase price for K4 was $575.0 million in cash plus the assumption of
approximately $7.0 million of employee benefit liabilities. The acquisition was
accounted for as a purchase. Accordingly, the results of K4 have been included
in the accompanying consolidated financial statements since the date of
acquisition. Goodwill and acquired intangibles as of the acquisition date were
$222.9 million and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a 10 year
period. The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was
approximately $359 million for fixed assets and $7 million for assumed
liabilities.

On July 1, 1999, we acquired the stock of Anam/Amkor Precision Machine
Company (AAPMC) for $3.8 million, which was paid to ASI during June 1999. AAPMC
supplies machine tooling used by us at our Philippine operations. As an interim
step to this acquisition, during April 1999, we assumed and repaid $5.7 million
of AAPMC's debt. The acquisition was financed through available working capital
and was accounted for as a purchase. Accordingly, the results of AAPMC have been
included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements since the date of
acquisition and goodwill of approximately $2.0 million was recorded as of the
date of acquisition and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over a ten
year period. The historical operating results of AAPMC are not material in
relation to our operating results.

On June 1, 1998, we purchased ASI's 40% interest in Amkor/Anam Pilipinas,
Inc. (AAP) for $33.8 million. The acquisition was accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting which resulted in the elimination of the minority
interest liability reflected on the consolidated balance sheet and the recording
of approximately $23.9 million of goodwill which is being amortized over 10
years.

Pro Forma Financial Information for Amkor (unaudited)

The unaudited pro forma information below assumes that the May 2000
acquisition of K1, K2 and K3 occurred at the beginning of 2000 and 1999 and the
May 1999 acquisition of K4 had occurred at the beginning of 1999. The pro forma
adjustments include a provision for amortization of goodwill and other
identified intangibles, an adjustment of depreciation expense based on the fair
market value of the acquired assets, interest expense on debt issued to finance
the acquisitions and income taxes related to the pro forma adjustments. The pro
forma results are not necessarily indicative of the results we would actually
have achieved if the acquisition had been completed as of the beginning of each
of the periods presented, nor are they necessarily indicative of future
consolidated results.

Our Investment in ASI

The stock prices of semiconductor companies' stocks, including ASI and its
competitors, have experienced significant volatility during 2000 and 2001. The
recent weakness in the semiconductor industry has affected the demand for the
wafer output from ASI's foundry and the market value of ASI's stock as traded on
the Korea Stock Exchange. The carrying value of our investment in ASI was $377.9
million and $478.9 million as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The
market value of our investment in ASI, based on ASI's closing share price, was
$204.5 million and $110.5 million as of December 31, 2001 and 2000,
respectively. Additionally, the unrealized loss on our investment in ASI at
March 31, 2001, June 30, 2001 and September 30, 2001 was $279.1 million, $264.8
million and $318.2 million.

We evaluate our investments for impairment due to declines in market value
that are considered other than temporary. Such evaluation includes an assessment
of general economic and company specific considerations such as regular customer
forecasts provided by Texas Instruments, regularly updated projections of ASI
operating results, and other indications of value including valuations indicated
by possible strategic transactions involving ASI that Amkor and ASI have
explored. In the event of a determination that a decline in market value is
other than temporary, a charge to earnings is recorded for the unrealized loss,
and a new cost basis in the investment is established. The carrying amount of
our investment in ASI reflects our long-term outlook for the foundry industry.
As of September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2001, we concluded that the positive
factors indicating that the decline in the market value of our investment in ASI
is temporary outweighed the negative factors. We based our conclusion primarily
on improving customer forecasts, improvements in ASI's stock price and the
general improvement in the semiconductor industry. Despite what the company
believes is significant compelling evidence to support the recoverability of the
carrying value of our investment in ASI, we acknowledge that ASI's stock price
should begin to reflect the recent recovery in the semiconductor industry, the
improvements in ASI's business and the other information regarding ASI's
business which we have used in forming our conclusions regarding the value of
ASI. Should ASI's stock price fail to recover above our carrying value in the
near future, we plan to record an impairment charge equal to the difference
between our carrying value and ASI's stock price. It is highly probable that
such a charge would be recorded as early as the first quarter of 2002.

Our Relationship with ASI

We have had a long-standing relationship with ASI and we currently own 42%
of ASI's outstanding shares. ASI was founded in 1956 by Mr. H. S. Kim, the
father of Mr. James Kim, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Through our
supply agreements with ASI, we historically have had a first right to
substantially all of the packaging and test services capacity of ASI and the
exclusive right to all of the wafer output of ASI's wafer fabrication facility.
Beginning in May 2000 

47

AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

with our acquisition of K1, K2 and K3, we no longer receive packaging and test
services from ASI. Under the wafer fabrication services supply agreement which
was consummated in January 1998, we continue to have the exclusive right but not
the requirement to purchase all of the wafer output of ASI's wafer fabrication
facility on pricing terms negotiated annually. Additionally, we have not
committed to purchase a minimum quantity of ASI's wafer output. After January
2003, this agreement is cancelable at any time by either party upon five-year
prior written notice. Historically, we have had other relationships with ASI
affiliated companies for financial services, construction services, materials
and equipment. We believe each of these transactions was conducted on an
arms-length basis in the ordinary course of business. In addition, ASI's former
construction subsidiary is currently in reorganization and its affairs are
managed by a number of creditor banks; all transactions between Amkor and this
entity are subject to review and approval by these banks. Total purchases from
ASI and its affiliates included in cost of revenue for the years ended December
31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 were $161.6 million, $499.8 million and $714.5 million.
Additionally, financial services performed by ASI and its affiliates included in
interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 were $1.6
million and $1.4 million. Construction services and equipment purchases received
from ASI and its affiliates capitalized during the years ended December 31,
2001, 2000 and 1999 were $14.7 million, $38.8 million and $18.4 million.

ASI's business had been severely affected by the economic crisis in Korea.
ASI has traditionally operated with a significant amount of debt relative to its
equity and has contractually guaranteed the debt obligations of certain
affiliates and subsidiaries. ASI was part of the Korean financial restructuring
program known as "Workout" beginning in October 1998. The Workout program was
the result of an accord among Korean financial institutions to assist in the
restructuring of Korean business enterprises. The process involved negotiation
between the related banks and ASI, and did not involve the judicial system. The
Workout process restructured the terms of ASI's bank debt, however, it did not
impact debts outstanding with trade creditors, including indebtedness with our
company. ASI's operations continued uninterrupted during the process. ASI was
released from workout with its Korean creditor banks on July 18, 2000.

4. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE SALE AGREEMENT

Effective July 1997 we entered into an agreement to sell receivables with
certain banks. The transaction qualified as a sale under the provisions of SFAS
No. 125 "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities." Under the agreement, the participating banks
committed to purchase, with limited recourse, all right, title and interest in
selected accounts receivable, up to a maximum of $100.0 million. Losses on
receivables sold under the agreement were approximately $1.1 million and $4.3
million in 2000 and 1999, respectively, and are included in other expense, net.
In March 2000, we terminated the agreement and repurchased approximately $71.5
million of accounts receivable.

In March 2001, June 2001 and September 2001, we amended the financial
covenants associated with the secured bank facilities. In connection with the
September 2001 amendment, the revolving line of credit was reduced from a $200
million commitment to $100 million, the interest rate on the Term B loans was
increased to LIBOR plus 4% and we prepaid $125 million of the Term B loans in
November 2001. We expensed, as interest expense, approximately $4.0 million of
deferred debt issuance costs as a result of the reduction of the revolving line
of credit commitment and the prepayment of the Term B loans.

In May 2001, we sold $250.0 million principal amount of our 5.75%
convertible subordinated notes due 2006 in a private placement. The notes are
convertible into Amkor common stock at a conversion price of $35.00 per share.
We used $122.0 million of the $243.0 million of the net proceeds of that
offering to repay amounts outstanding under the Term B loans of our secured bank
facility, and the balance of the net proceeds was available to be used for
general corporate and working capital purposes. In connection with the repayment
in May 2001 of the Term B loans, we expensed, as interest expense, $2.3 million
of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs.

In May 2001, we called for the redemption of all of the 5.75% convertible
subordinated notes due May 2003. In anticipation of the redemption,
substantially all of the holders of the convertible notes opted to convert their
notes into Amkor common stock and, accordingly, $50.2 million of the convertible
notes were converted to 3.7 million of our common stock. In connection with the
conversion of the 5.75% convertible subordinated notes due May 2003, $1.2
million of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs was charged to additional
paid-in capital.

In February 2001, we sold $500.0 million principal amount of our 9.25%
senior notes due 2008 in a private placement. We used $387.5 million of the
$490.0 million of the net proceeds of that offering to repay amounts outstanding
under the Term A loans and revolving line of credit of our secured bank
facility, and the balance of the net proceeds was available to be used for
general corporate and working capital purposes. In connection with the repayment
in February 2001 of the Term A loans, we expensed, as interest expense, $7.1
million of unamortized deferred debt issuance costs.

Other debt as of December 31, 2001 included our foreign debt principally
related to the financing of Amkor Iwate's acquisition of a Toshiba packaging and
test facility and the debt assumed in connection with the acquisition of Sampo
Semiconductor Corporation in Taiwan. Our foreign debt included fixed and
variable debt maturing between 2002 and 2010, with the substantial majority
maturing by 2003. As of December 31, 2001 the foreign debt had interest rates
ranging from 1.0% to 6.6%. These debt instruments do not include significant
financial covenants.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

In connection with our issuance of the 5.75% convertible subordinated
notes due 2006 in May 2001, we incurred debt issuance costs of $7.0 million. In
connection with our issuance of the 9.25% senior notes due 2008 and the
amendment to our secured bank facility in February 2001, we incurred debt
issuance costs of $11.0 million. The debt issuance costs have been deferred and
are being amortized over the life of the associated debt. Deferred debt issuance
costs are included, net of amortization, in other noncurrent assets in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheet and the related amortization expense is
included in interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of
operations.

During the fourth quarter of 1999 and continuing into 2000, we completed
an early conversion of the 5.75% convertible subordinated notes due May 2003.
During the year ended December 31, 2000, we exchanged approximately 248,000
shares of our common stock for $3.2 million of the convertible subordinated
notes. During the year ended December 31, 1999, we exchanged 12.1 million shares
of common stock for $153.6 million of convertible subordinated notes. The fair
value of the shares of common stock issued in excess of the shares required for
conversion of the notes was $0.3 million and $17.4 million for the year ended
December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and such amounts were expensed and are
included in other expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of
operations.

Interest expense related to short-term borrowings and long-term debt is
presented net of interest income of $10.3 million, $14.2 million and $19.9
million in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively, in the accompanying consolidated
statements of operations. The principal payments required under short-term and
long-term debt borrowings at December 31, 2001 are as follows: 2002 -- $54.8
million, 2003 -- $35.2 million, 2004 -- $55.4 million, 2005 -- $42.1 million,
2006 -- $677.9 million and thereafter -- $960.9 million.

11. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

In connection with a $410.0 million private equity offering in May 2000,
we issued 20.5 million shares of our common stock and granted warrants that
expire four years from issuance to purchase 3.9 million additional shares of our
common stock at $27.50 per share. The estimated fair value of the stock warrants
of $35.0 million is included in additional paid-in capital on our consolidated
balance sheet.

12. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

U.S. Defined Contribution Plan

Our company has a defined contribution benefit plan covering substantially
all U.S. employees. Employees can contribute up to 13% of salary to the plan and
the company matches in cash 75% of the employee's contributions up to a defined
maximum on an annual basis. The expense for this plan was $2.1 million, $1.8
million and $1.8 million in 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

Philippine Pension Plan

Our Philippine subsidiaries sponsor a defined benefit plan that covers
substantially all employees who are not covered by statutory plans. Charges to
expense are based upon costs computed by independent actuaries.

The components of net periodic pension cost for the Philippine defined
benefit plan are as follows:

of increase in future compensation levels was 9% as of December 31, 2001 and 11%
as of December 31, 2000 and 1999. The expected long-term rate of return on plan
assets was 12% as of December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999. These rates reflect
economic and market conditions in the Philippines. The fair value of plan assets
includes an investment in our common stock of $1.6 million at December 31, 2001
and 2000.

Korean Severance Plan

Our Korean subsidiary participates in an accrued severance plan that
covers employees and directors with one year or more of service. Eligible plan
participants are entitled to receive a lump-sum payment upon termination of
their employment, based on their length of service and rate of pay at the time
of termination. Accrued severance benefits are estimated assuming all eligible
employees were to terminate their employment at the balance sheet date. The
contributions to national pension fund made under the National Pension Plan of
the Republic of Korea are deducted from accrued severance benefit liabilities.
Contributed amounts are:

AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

As a result of certain capital investments, export commitments and
employment levels, income from operations in Korea, the Philippines and China,
is subject to reduced tax rates, and in some cases is wholly exempt from taxes.
As a result of our 1999 and 2000 acquisitions of K1, K2, K3 and K4 in Korea, we
benefit from a tax holiday extending through 2012 that provides for a 100% tax
holiday for seven years and then 50% tax holiday for an additional 3 years. In
the Philippines, two of our subsidiaries operate in economic zones and in
exchange for tax holidays we have committed to certain export and employment
levels. One of our Philippine subsidiaries benefits from a full tax holiday
through 2003, followed by perpetual reduced tax rate of 5% and the other
subsidiary benefits from a perpetual reduced tax rate of 5%. As a result of our
2001 investment in China, we expect to benefit from a 100% tax holiday for five
years and then 50% tax holiday for an additional two years. The income tax
benefits attributable to the tax status of these subsidiaries are approximately
$43.4 million or $0.28 per share in 2000 and $14.9 million or $0.11 per share in
1999. As a result of the losses at these subsidiaries during 2001, there is a
lost income tax benefit attributable to the tax status of these subsidiaries, of
approximately $33.8 million or $0.21 per share.

The deferred tax asset and liability for foreign exchange gains and losses
relate to U.S. dollar denominated monetary assets and liabilities for which
foreign exchange gains or losses were realized for book purposes and not for tax
purposes. During 2000 one of our Philippine subsidiaries realized net foreign
exchange gains and losses for book purposes which were deferred for tax and
established a valuation allowance for a portion of the related deferred tax
assets. Our ability to utilize these assets depends on the timing of the
settlement of the related assets or liabilities and the amount of taxable income
recognized within the Philippine statutory carryforward limit of three years.
During 2001, such Philippine subsidiary realized the foreign exchange gains and
losses for tax causing a reduction to the valuation allowance established in
2000.

As of December 31, 2001, our company has U.S. net operating losses for tax
purposes totaling $254.9 million expiring between 2019 and 2021. Non-U.S. loss
before taxes and minority interest was approximately $180.7 million in 2001 and
non-U.S. income before taxes and minority interest was approximately $201.0
million and $74.0 million in 2000 and 1999, respectively. At December 31, 2001,
undistributed earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries totaled approximately $336.1
million. Deferred tax liabilities have not been recognized for these
undistributed earnings because it is our intention to reinvest such
undistributed earning outside the U.S. An estimated $53.3 million in U.S. income
and foreign withholding taxes would be due if these earnings were remitted as
dividends.

At December 31, 2001 and 2000 current deferred tax assets of $16.3 million
and $13.5 million, respectively, are included in other current assets and
noncurrent deferred tax assets of $108.1 million and $2.3 million, respectively,
are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet. The net deferred
tax assets include amounts, which, in our opinion, are more likely than not to
be realizable through future taxable income. In addition, at December 31, 2001
and 2000, noncurrent deferred tax liabilities of $14.5 million and $4.2 million,
respectively, are included in other noncurrent liabilities in the consolidated
balance sheet.

We operate in and file income tax returns in various U.S. and non-U.S.
jurisdictions, which are subject to examination by tax authorities. Our tax
returns have been examined through 1994 in the Philippines and through 1996 in
the U.S. The tax returns for open years in all jurisdictions in which we do
business are subject to changes upon examination. We believe that we have
estimated and provided adequate accruals for the probable additional taxes and
related interest expense that may ultimately result from examinations related to
our transfer pricing and local attribution of income resulting from significant
intercompany transactions, including ownership and use of intellectual property,
in various U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions. Our estimated tax liability is
subject to change as examinations of specific tax years are completed in the
respective jurisdictions. We believe that any additional taxes or related
interest over the amounts accrued will not have a material effect on our
financial condition or results of operations, nor do we expect that examinations
to be completed in the near term would have a material favorable impact. As of
December 31, 2001 and 2000, the accrual for current taxes and estimated
additional taxes was $53.4 million and $52.2 million, respectively. In addition,
changes in the mix of income from our foreign subsidiaries, expiration of tax
holidays and changes in tax laws or regulations could result in increased
effective tax rates in the future.

14. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") of No. 128, "Earnings
Per Share," requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share
on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed using only the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period while
diluted EPS is computed assuming conversion of all dilutive securities, such as
options. In 2001, 2.1 million stock options and the outstanding convertible
notes and warrants were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per
share as a result of the antidilutive effect. In 2000, the 5% convertible
subordinated notes due 2007 and the outstanding warrants were excluded from the
computation of diluted earnings per share as a result of the antidilutive
effect. The basic and diluted per share amounts for the years presented are

15. STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS

1998 Director Option Plan. A total of 300,000 shares of common stock have
been reserved for issuance under the Director Plan. The option grants under the
Director Plan are automatic and non-discretionary. Generally, the Director Plan
provides for an initial grant of options to purchase 15,000 shares of common
stock to each new non-employee director of the company when such individual
first becomes an Outside Director. In addition, each non-employee director will
automatically be granted subsequent options to purchase 5,000 shares of common
stock on each date on which such director is re-elected by the stockholders of
the company, provided that as of such date such director has served on the Board
of Directors for at least six months. The exercise price of the options is 100%
of the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date. The term of each
option is ten years and each option granted to an non-employee director vests
over a three year period. The Director Plan will terminate in January 2008
unless sooner terminated by the Board of Directors.

1998 Stock Plan. The 1998 Stock Plan generally provides for the grant to
employees, directors and consultants of stock options and stock purchase rights.
Unless terminated sooner, the 1998 Plan will terminate automatically in January
2008. A total of 5,000,000 shares are reserved for issuance under the 1998 Stock
Plan, and there is a provision for an annual replenishment to bring the number
of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the plan up to 5,000,000
as of each January 1.

Unless determined otherwise by the Board of Directors or a committee
appointed by the Board of Directors, options and stock purchase rights granted
under the 1998 Plan are not transferable by the optionee. Generally, the
exercise price of all stock options granted under the 1998 Plan must be at least
equal to the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant. In general,
the options granted will vest over a four year period and the term of the
options granted under the 1998 Plan may not exceed ten years.

1998 Stock Option Plan for French Employees. Unless terminated sooner, the
French Plan will continue in existence until 2003. The French Plan provides for
the granting of options to employees of our French subsidiaries. A total of
250,000 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance under the French Plan,
and there is a provision for an annual replenishment to bring the number of
shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the plan up to 250,000 as of
each January 1. In general, stock options granted under the French Plan vest
over a four year period, the exercise price for each option granted under the
French Plan shall be 100% of the fair market value of the shares of common stock
on the date the option is granted and the maximum term of the option must not
exceed ten years. Shares subject to the options granted under the French Plan
may not be transferred, assigned or hypothecated in any manner other than by
will or the laws of descent or distribution before the date which is five years
after the date of grant.

In order to calculate the fair value of stock options at date of grant, we

to calculate weighted average fair values of the options granted:

1998 Employee Stock Purchase Plan. A total of 1,000,000 shares of common
stock are available for sale under the Stock Purchase Plan and an annual
increase is to be added on each anniversary date of the adoption of the Stock
Purchase Plan to restore the maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock
available for sale under the plan up to 1,000,000. Employees (including officers
and employee directors of the company but excluding 5% or greater stockholders)
are eligible to participate if they are customarily employed for at least 20
hours per week. The Stock Purchase Plan permits eligible

employees to purchase common stock through payroll deductions, which may not
exceed 15% of the compensation an employee receives on each payday. Each
participant will be granted an option on the first day of a two year offering
period, and shares of common stock will be purchased on four purchase dates
within the offering period. The purchase price of the common stock under the
Stock Purchase Plan will be equal to 85% of the lesser of the fair market value
per share of common stock on the start date of the offering period or on the
purchase date. Employees may end their participation in an offering period at
any time, and participation ends automatically on termination of employment with
the company. The Stock Purchase Plan will terminate in January 2008, unless
sooner terminated by the Board of Directors.

For the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, employees purchased
common stock shares under the stock purchase plan of 482,937, 263,498 and
586,755, respectively. The average estimated fair values of the purchase rights
granted during the years ended December 31 2001, 2000 and 1999 based on the
Black-Scholes option pricing model were $6.53, $12.17 and $5.65, respectively.
The following assumptions were used to calculate weighted average fair values of
the purchase rights granted:

We account for our stock-based compensation plans in accordance with
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees" and the Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 44,
"Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation, an
Interpretation of APB No. 25." Accordingly, compensation cost for stock-based
plans is generally measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of
our company's stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must
pay to acquire the stock. Had we recorded compensation expense for our stock
compensation plans, as provided by SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," our reported net income and basic and diluted earnings per share
would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

16. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

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

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for short-term
investments, due from affiliates, other accounts receivable, due to affiliates,
accrued expenses and accrued income taxes approximate fair value due to the
short-term nature of these instruments. The methods and assumptions used to
estimate the fair value of other significant classes of financial instruments is
set forth below:

57

AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

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

Available for sale investments. The fair value of these financial
instruments was estimated based on market quotes, recent offerings of similar
securities, current and projected financial performance of the company and net
asset positions.

Long-term debt. The carrying amount of our total long-term debt as
December 31, 2001 was $1,771.5 million and the fair value based on available
market quotes is estimated to be $1,573.5 million.

17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Amkor is involved in various claims incidental to the conduct of our
business. Based on consultation with legal counsel, we do not believe that any
claims, either individually or in the aggregate, to which the company is a party
will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of
operations.

We are disputing certain amounts due under a technology license agreement
with a third party. To date, this dispute has not involved the judicial systems.
We remit to the third party our estimate of amounts due under this agreement.
Depending on the outcome of this dispute, the ultimate payable by us, as of
December 31, 2001, could be up to an additional $14.6 million. The third party
is not actively pursuing resolution to this dispute and we have not accrued the
potential additional amount.

Pennsylvania from certain of our stockholders. The lease expires in 2006. We
have the option to extend the lease for an additional 10 years through 2016.
Amounts paid for this lease in 2001, 2000 and 1999 were $1.2 million, $1.2
million and $1.1 million, respectively.

18. SEGMENT INFORMATION

In accordance with SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information," we have two reportable segments, packaging
and test services and wafer fabrication services. These segments are managed
separately because the services provided by each segment require different
technology and marketing strategies.

Packaging and Test Services. Through our factories located in the
Philippines, Korea, Japan, Taiwan and China, we offer a complete and integrated
set of packaging and test services including integrated circuit (IC) packaging
design, leadframe and substrate design, IC package assembly, final testing,
burn-in, reliability testing and thermal and electrical characterization.

Wafer Fabrication Services. Through our wafer fabrication services
division, we provide marketing, engineering and support services for ASI's wafer
foundry, under a long-term supply agreement.

We derived 79.4%, 80.7% and 99.3% of our wafer fabrication revenues from
Texas Instruments (TI) for 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Total net revenues
derived from TI accounted for 10.2%, 14.1% and 16.5% of our consolidated net
revenues 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively. With the commencement of operations
of Amkor Iwate and the acquisition of a packaging and test facility from
Toshiba, total net revenues derived from Toshiba accounted for 14.3% of our
consolidated

net revenues for 2001.

The accounting policies for segment reporting are the same as those for
our consolidated financial statements. We evaluate our operating segments based
on operating income. Summarized financial information concerning reportable
segments is shown in the following table. The "Other" column includes the
elimination of inter-segment balances and corporate assets which include cash
and cash equivalents, non-operating balances due from affiliates, investment in
equity affiliates and other investments.

AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Basis of Presentation. The consolidated financial statements and related
disclosures as of June 30, 2002 and for the three and six months ended June 30,
2002 and 2001 are unaudited, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such
rules and regulations. In our opinion, these financial statements include all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the
fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with our latest annual report as of
December 31, 2001 filed on Form 10-K, as amended, with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected
for the full year. Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to
conform with the current presentation.

Risks and Uncertainties. Our future results of operations involve a number
of risks and uncertainties. Factors that could affect future operating results
and cause actual results to vary materially from historical results include, but
are not limited to, dependence on the highly cyclical nature of the
semiconductor industry, the continuing negative impacts of the unprecedented
industry downturn in 2001, our high leverage and the restrictive covenants
contained in the agreements governing our indebtedness, uncertainty as to the
demand from our customers over both the long- and short-term, competitive
pricing and declines in average selling prices we experience, our dependence on
our relationship with Anam Semiconductor, Inc. (ASI) for all of our wafer
fabrication output, the timing and volume of orders relative to our production
capacity, the absence of significant backlog in our business, fluctuations in
manufacturing yields, the availability of financing, our competition, our
dependence on international operations and sales, our dependence on raw material
and equipment suppliers, exchange rate fluctuations, our dependence on key
personnel, difficulties integrating acquisitions, the enforcement of
intellectual property rights by or against us, our need to comply with existing
and future environmental regulations, the results of ASI as it impacts our
financial results and political and economic uncertainty resulting from
terrorist activities.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No.
146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS
No. 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with
exit or disposal activities and supercedes Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No.
94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other
Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a
Restructuring)." SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated
with an exit or disposal activity shall be recognized and measured initially at
its fair value in the period in which the liability is incurred rather than when
a company commits to such an activity. We will adopt SFAS No. 146 beginning with
exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002.

2. SPECIAL CHARGES

3. SFAS NO. 141, BUSINESS COMBINATIONS AND SFAS NO. 142, GOODWILL AND OTHER
INTANGIBLE ASSETS

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, which
prohibits the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business
combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and addresses the accounting for
purchase method business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. Also in
June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.
For existing acquisitions, the provisions of SFAS No. 142 were effective as of
January 1, 2002 and are generally effective for business combinations initiated
after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142 includes provisions regarding the
reclassification of certain existing recognized intangibles as goodwill,
reassessment of the useful lives of existing recognized intangibles, the
cessation of amortization related to goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles,
and the testing for impairment of goodwill and other intangibles annually or
more frequently if circumstances warrant. Additionally, SFAS No. 142 requires
that within six months of adoption of SFAS No. 142, goodwill be tested for
impairment at the reporting unit level as of the date of adoption.

6

We adopted SFAS No. 142 as of January 1, 2002 and we reclassified $30.0
million of intangible assets previously identified as an assembled workforce
intangible to goodwill. Additionally at adoption of SFAS No. 142, we stopped
amortizing goodwill of $659.1 million, as well as goodwill of $118.6 million
associated with our investment in ASI accounted for under the equity method of
accounting. The unaudited as adjusted financial information below assumes that
the cessation of amortization occurred as of January 1, 2001.

As of the adoption date of the standard, we have reassessed the useful lives of
our identified intangibles and they continue to be appropriate. Goodwill and
other intangible assets are attributable to two reporting units, packaging and
test services. We completed the initial impairment test during the second
quarter of 2002. Based on the comparison of the fair value of the reporting
units with their respective carrying values each as of January 1, 2002, we
concluded that goodwill associated with our packaging and test services
reporting units was not impaired as of adoption. An appraisal firm was engaged
to assist in the determination of the fair value of our reporting units. The
determination of fair value was based on projected cash flows.

SFAS No. 142 provides that goodwill of a reporting unit be tested for
impairment on an annual basis and between annual tests in certain circumstances
including a significant adverse change in the business climate and testing for
recoverability of long-lived assets. Our test services assets and several
non-core packaging services assets remained at low utilization rates during the
second quarter of 2002 and are no longer expected to reach previously
anticipated utilization levels. As discussed in Note 4 we tested the
recoverability of such assets as of June 30, 2002 and concluded that a portion
of those assets was impaired. Accordingly we retested goodwill for impairment as
of June 30, 2002, and concluded that the carrying value of the assets and
liabilities associated with the test services reporting unit exceeded its fair
value. As of June 30, 2002, we recognized a $73.1 million goodwill impairment
charge. Such impairment charge was measured by comparing the implied fair value
of the goodwill associated with the test services reporting unit to its carrying
value. An appraisal firm was engaged to assist in the determination of the fair
value of our reporting units. The determination of fair value was based on
projected cash flows.

4. SFAS NO. 144, ACCOUNTING FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OR DISPOSAL OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144 "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," which supersedes Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121. This standard provides a single
accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale and establishes
additional criteria that would have to be met to classify an asset as held for
sale. The carrying amount of an asset or asset group is not recoverable if it
exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use
and eventual disposition of the asset or asset group. Estimates of future cash
flows used to test the recoverability of a long-lived asset or asset group must
incorporate the entity's own assumptions about its use of the asset or asset
group and must factor in all available evidence. SFAS No. 144 requires that
long-lived assets be tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. Such
events include significant under-performance relative to the expected historical
or projected future operating results; significant changes in the manner of use
of the assets; significant negative industry or economic trends and significant
changes in market capitalization.

Although significant recovery was noted in our company's core packaging
services during the second quarter of 2002, our test services assets and several
non-core packaging services assets remained at low utilization rates relative to
our projections, and are no longer expected to reach previously anticipated
utilization levels. In addition, during the second quarter of 2002, we
experienced a significant decline in our market capitalization. These events
triggered an impairment review in accordance with SFAS No. 144. This review
included a company wide evaluation of underutilized assets that could be sold
and a detailed update of our operating and cash flow projections. As a result of
this analysis, we identified $19.8 million of test and packaging fixed assets to
be disposed. We recognized a $18.7 million impairment charge to reduce the
carrying value of the test and packaging fixed assets to be disposed to their
fair value less cost to sell. Fair value of the assets to be disposed was
determined with the assistance of an appraisal firm and available information on
the resale value of the equipment. Additionally we tested for impairment our
long-lived test assets that are held and used, including intangible assets that
we are amortizing, and certain non-core packaging fixed assets that are held and
used. For the test and packaging assets that are held and used, we recognized a
$171.6 million impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of those assets to
fair value. An appraisal firm was engaged to assist in the determination of the
fair value of the assets held for use. The determination of fair value was based
on projected cash flows.

5. RESTRUCTURING CHARGE

During the second quarter of 2002, we consolidated some of our U.S. office
locations and closed our San Jose test facility. Test development is now
centralized in our primary test development center in Wichita, Kansas. These
activities were designed to reduce expenses and enhance operational
efficiencies. In connection with these activities we recognized $4.8 million in
lease cancellation costs and other facility exit expenses.

6. ACQUISITIONS

In April 2002, we acquired the semiconductor packaging business of Citizen
Watch Co., Ltd. located in the Iwate prefecture in Japan. The business acquired
includes a manufacturing facility, over 80 employees and intellectual property.
The purchase price included a $7.8 million cash payment at closing. We are
required to make additional payments one year from closing for the amount of the
deferred purchased price as well as contingent payments, which together cannot
be less than 1.7 billion Japanese yen and cannot exceed 2.4 billion Japanese yen
($14.2 million to $20.0 million based on the spot exchange rate at June 30,
2002). If we make the additional contingent payments of 700 million Japanese yen
($5.8 million based on the spot exchange rate at June 30, 2002), we will record
them as additional amounts of purchase price effective as of the date the
contingency is resolved in January 2003. In accordance with the new accounting
standards related to purchase business combinations and goodwill, we recorded
$19.6 million of intangible assets for patent rights that are amortizable over 7
years. The fair value of the other assets acquired and liabilities assumed was
approximately $2.5 million for fixed assets, $0.1 million for inventory and
other assets and $14.2 million for the deferred purchase price payment and

8

minimum amount of the contingent payments. Such net assets principally relate to
our packaging services reporting unit.

Additionally, in April 2002, we signed a non-binding memorandum of
understanding with Fujitsu Limited to acquire Fujitsu's packaging and test
operation in Kagoshima, Japan. The formation and structure of the acquisition
are subject to the negotiation and execution of definitive agreements as well as
any necessary corporate and regulatory approvals. We currently anticipate that
the transaction will be completed in the fourth quarter of 2002.

In January 2002, we acquired Agilent Technologies, Inc.'s packaging
business related to semiconductor packages utilized in printers for $2.8 million
in cash. The acquired tangible assets were integrated into our existing
manufacturing facilities. The purchase price was principally allocated to the
tangible assets of our packaging services reporting unit. Our results of
operations were not significantly impacted by this acquisition.

In July 2001, we acquired, in separate transactions, 69% of Taiwan
Semiconductor Technology Corporation (TSTC) and 98% of Sampo Semiconductor
Corporation (SSC) in Taiwan. Including our prior ownership interest in TSTC, we
now own 94% of the outstanding shares of TSTC. The combined purchase price was
paid with the issuance of 4.9 million shares of our common stock valued at $87.9
million based on our closing share price two days prior to each acquisition, the
assumption of $34.8 million of debt and $3.7 million of cash consideration, net
of acquired cash. The carrying value of our prior investment in TSTC was $17.8
million. In connection with earn-out provisions that provided for additional
purchase price based in part on the results of the acquisitions, we issued an
additional 1.8 million shares in January 2002 and recorded an additional $35.2
million in goodwill.

In January 2001, Amkor Iwate Corporation commenced operations and acquired
from Toshiba a packaging and test facility located in the Iwate prefecture in
Japan. The total purchase price of $77.1 million was financed by a short-term
note payable to Toshiba of $21.1 million, $47.0 million in other financing from
a Toshiba financing affiliate and cash on hand. Amkor Iwate provides packaging
and test services to Toshiba's Iwate factory under a long-term supply agreement
based on a cost plus calculation. We currently own 60% of Amkor Iwate and
Toshiba owns the balance of the outstanding shares. By January 2004 we are
required to purchase the remaining 40% of the outstanding shares of Amkor Iwate
from Toshiba. The share purchase price will be determined based on the
performance of the joint venture during the three-year period but cannot be less
than 1 billion Japanese yen and cannot exceed 4 billion Japanese yen ($8.3
million to $33.3 million based on the spot exchange rate at June 30, 2002).

We evaluate our investment in ASI for impairment due to declines in market
value that are considered other than temporary. Such evaluation includes an
assessment of general economic and company specific considerations such as
regular customer forecasts provided

9

by Texas Instruments, the largest customer for the output of ASI's foundry,
regularly updated projections of ASI operating results, and other indications of
value including valuations indicated by possible strategic transactions
involving ASI that Amkor and ASI have explored. In the event of a determination
that a decline in market value is other than temporary, a charge to earnings is
recorded for the unrealized loss, and a new cost basis in the investment is
established. The stock prices of semiconductor companies' stocks, including ASI
and its competitors, have experienced significant volatility beginning in 2000
and continuing into 2002. The weakness in the semiconductor industry has
affected the demand for the wafer output from ASI's foundry and the market value
of ASI's stock as traded on the Korea Stock Exchange. During the three months
ended March 31, 2002, we recorded a $96.6 million impairment charge to reduce
the carrying value of our investment in ASI to ASI's market value based on its
closing share price on March 31, 2002. During the three months ended June 30,
2002, we recorded an additional impairment charge of $43.0 million to reduce the
carrying value of our investment in ASI to its fair value of $4.74 per share
based on negotiations with a third party to acquire a portion of our interest in
ASI. These negotiations culminated into the signing of an agreement on July 10,
2002. Additional information regarding the partial sale of our investment in ASI
is included in Note 17, Subsequent Events. At June 30, 2002 and July 31, 2002,
ASI's stock price was $3.80 per share and $4.21 per share, respectively.

presented net of interest income of $1.9 million and $5.4 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, in the accompanying
consolidated statements of operations.

14. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings Per
Share," requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share on
the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed using only the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding for the period, while diluted EPS is
computed assuming conversion of all dilutive securities, such as options. For
the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, 2.1 million shares and 2.3 million
shares, respectively, for outstanding options, convertible notes and warrants
for common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per
share as a result of the antidilutive effect. For the three and six months ended
June 30, 2001, 3.0 million shares and 2.5 million shares,

11

respectively, for outstanding options, convertible notes and warrants for common
stock were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as a
result of the antidilutive effect.

15. SEGMENT INFORMATION

In accordance with SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information," we have two reportable segments, packaging
and test services and wafer fabrication services. These segments are managed
separately because the services provided by each segment require different
technology and marketing strategies.

Packaging and Test Services. Through our factories located in the
Philippines, Korea, Japan, Taiwan and China, we offer a complete and integrated
set of packaging and test services including integrated circuit (IC) packaging
design, leadframe and substrate design, IC package packaging, final testing,
burn-in, reliability testing and thermal and electrical characterization.

Wafer Fabrication Services. Through our wafer fabrication services
division, we provide marketing, engineering and support services for ASI's wafer
foundry, under a long-term supply agreement.

We derived 93.3% and 67.2% of our wafer fabrication revenues from Texas
Instruments (TI) for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
Total net revenues derived from TI accounted for 15.5% and 7.5% of our
consolidated net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001,
respectively. With the commencement of operations of Amkor Iwate and the
acquisition of a packaging and test facility from Toshiba, total net revenues
derived from Toshiba accounted for 11.8% and 14.6% of our consolidated net
revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

The accounting policies for segment reporting are the same as those for
our consolidated financial statements. We evaluate our operating segments based
on operating income. Summarized financial information concerning reportable
segments is shown in the following table. The "Other" column includes the
elimination of inter-segment balances and corporate assets which include cash
and cash equivalents, non-operating balances due from affiliates, investment in
equity affiliates and other investments.

16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Amkor is involved in various claims incidental to the conduct of our
business. Based on consultation with legal counsel, we do not believe that any
claims, either individually or in the aggregate, to which the company is a party
will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of
operations.

We are disputing certain amounts due under a technology license agreement
with a third party. To date, this dispute has not involved the judicial systems.
We remit to the third party our estimate of amounts due under this agreement.
Depending on the outcome of this dispute, the ultimate amount payable by us, as
of June 30, 2002, could be up to an additional $16.1 million. The third party is
not actively pursuing resolution to this dispute and we have not accrued the
potential additional amount.

17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

During July 2002, we entered into definitive agreements to sell 20 million
shares of common stock of Anam Semiconductor, Inc. (ASI) at a price of 5,700
Korean won per share ($4.74 per share based on the spot exchange rate at June
30, 2002) to the Dongbu Group. The Dongbu Group comprises Dongbu Corporation,
Dongbu Fire Insurance Co., Ltd. and Dongbu Life Insurance Co., Ltd., all of
which are Korean corporations and are collectively referred herein as "Dongbu".
The transaction is currently scheduled to close on August 28, 2002. The proceeds
from the sale will used to repay all amounts outstanding under our bank debt.
Upon repayment of the bank debt, we will seek to simplify the financial
covenants associated with the revolving line of credit or seek a new line of
credit. If the transaction with Dongbu does not close as expected, we expect
that we will seek an amendment or waiver by March 31, 2003 of the financial
covenants associated with the bank debt. One of the conditions to closing of
this transaction is that Dongbu, ASI and Texas Instruments enter into a letter
of intent to consummate a Technology Transfer Agreement and a Manufacturing and
Purchase Agreement. As of the date of this filing we have received a 50% deposit
from Dongbu. The balance of the purchase price is payable within two weeks after
the closing date. Following the transaction, Amkor will own 27.7 million shares
of ASI. The carrying value of our remaining investment in ASI will be valued at
approximately $131.4 million, based on the June 30, 2002 investment balance.
Dongbu's recent purchase of 12.0 million newly issued shares of ASI together
with its purchase of Amkor's 20 million shares will reduce Amkor's ownership
interest in ASI to approximately 22%. We cannot assure you that Dongbu, ASI and
Texas Instruments will reach agreement on a letter of intent as required to
consummate these transactions. In order to reach agreement on the letter of
intent, the parties will need to reach agreement on a variety of complex and
difficult technical and business issues. In the event such a letter of intent
cannot be agreed upon, Amkor may be required to return to Dongbu any amounts
paid to Amkor by Dongbu.

The definitive agreements with Dongbu also provide that Amkor, ASI and
Dongbu will reach agreement no later than September 30, 2002 to terminate
Amkor's foundry agreement with ASI. In consideration of such termination, Dongbu
will pay Amkor at least $45.0 million and no more than $65.0 million. Under the
terms of the foundry agreement, Amkor has exclusive rights to sell all the
output of ASI's foundry until 2008. If an agreement can be reached by September
30, 2002, we will reflect our wafer fabrication services segment as a
discontinued operation. In addition, pursuant to the definitive agreements, (1)
Amkor and Dongbu agreed to use reasonable best efforts to cause Dongbu
Electronics and ASI to be merged together as soon as practicable, (2) Amkor and
Dongbu agreed to cause ASI to use the proceeds ASI received from its sale of
stock to Dongbu to purchase shares in Dongbu Electronics and (3) Amkor and
Dongbu agreed to use their best efforts to provide releases and indemnifications
to the chairman, directors and officers of ASI, either past or incumbent, from
any and all liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties at ASI
between January 1, 1995 and December 31, 2001. The last provision would provide
a release and indemnification for James Kim, our CEO and Chairman, and members
of his family. We are not aware of any claims or other liabilities which these
individuals would be released from or for which they would receive
indemnification.

13

In connection with the planned disposition of a portion of our interest in
ASI, we acquired a 10% interest in Acqutek from ASI for a total purchase price
of $1.9 million. Acqutek supplies materials to the semiconductor industry and is
a publicly traded company in Korea that had previously been owned 20% by ASI and
which an entity controlled by the family of James Kim, currently holds a 25%
ownership interest. We have historically purchased and continue to purchase lead
frames from Acqutek. Total purchases from Acqutek included in cost of revenue
for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 was $6.3 million and $8.7
million, respectively. We believe these transactions with Acqutek were conducted
on an arms-length basis in the ordinary course of business.

charges of 1:1, we would have had to generate an additional $464.9 million of
earnings in the six months ended June 30, 2002. We recorded charges totaling
$268.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2002 for goodwill and long-lived
asset impairments, lease termination costs and other exit costs. 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

Exhibit (a)(3)

[AMKOR LETTERHEAD]

I am pleased to announce that Amkor's Board of Directors has approved a
Voluntary Stock Option Exchange program (the "EXCHANGE PROGRAM") in which
eligible employees and members of our Board of Directors will have the
opportunity to exchange unexercised options to purchase shares of common stock
of Amkor previously granted under the 1998 Stock Plan, as may be amended from
time to time (the "1998 PLAN"), the 1998 Director Option Plan (the "DIRECTOR
PLAN") or the 1998 Stock Option Plan for French Employees, as may be amended
from time to time (the "FRENCH PLAN") (collectively, the "OLD OPTIONS") for the
promise to grant new options (the "NEW OPTIONS"). The New Options will be
granted in the future under either the 1998 Plan, in respect of exchanged
options originally outstanding under the 1998 Plan or the Director Plan, or the
French Plan, in respect of exchanged options originally outstanding under the
French Plan; provided, however, that New Options granted to the residents of the
United Kingdom will be granted under the 1998 Plan rather than the French Plan.
The election period for the Exchange Program will begin on Friday, November 8,
2002 and end on Tuesday December 10, 2002, unless otherwise extended by us.

The Exchange Program is subject to the terms and conditions of this
letter, the Offer to Exchange describing the Exchange Program, the Election Form
for tendering options, and the Notice to Change Election From Accept to Reject,
each of which is being distributed to you concurrently with this letter. We are
separately mailing for your review a stock report listing your current
outstanding stock options. We strongly urge you to read all of these materials
carefully and to understand the risks associated with tendering your Old Options
in the Exchange Program before making your decision. WE ALSO STRONGLY ENCOURAGE
YOU TO CONSULT YOUR TAX AND FINANCIAL ADVISORS BEFORE MAKING ANY DECISION ABOUT
THE EXCHANGE PROGRAM. Participation by each eligible option holder is voluntary.

Stock options are an important component of our total compensation
package. We believe that granting stock options provides an opportunity to: (1)
align the interests of employees, members of the Board of Directors and
stockholders, (2) provide incentives for employees to achieve high levels of
performance, and (3) to provide members of the Board of Directors a continuing
incentive to serve on our Board of Directors. Amkor recognizes that some of the
options granted in past years have exercise prices significantly higher than the
current market price of Amkor shares (that is, some options currently are
"underwater") and the Exchange Program is an opportunity for, though not a
guarantee of, the grant of New Options that may have a greater potential to
increase in value over time.

If you elect to participate in the Exchange Program, you must make your
election by completing and returning the Election Form during the period
beginning on November 8, 2002 and ending at 5:00 p.m. Mountain Standard Time,
December 10, 2002 (the "EXPIRATION DATE"), unless the time period of the
Exchange Program is extended by us. If your Election Form is received after the
Expiration Date, it will not be accepted by us and if you fail to turn in your
Election Form, you will be deemed to have elected not to participate in the
Exchange Program.

The main features of the Exchange Program include the following:

-     Employees and members of the Board of Directors are eligible to
participate if they are employees or members of the Board of
Directors of Amkor or one of our subsidiaries as of the date the
Exchange Program commences and the date on which the tendered
options are cancelled. Non-employee affiliates and contractors are
not eligible to participate.

-     All unexercised options to purchase shares of common stock of Amkor
granted under the 1998 Plan, the Director Plan or the French Plan
that are held by eligible employees or members of the Board of
Directors are eligible to be tendered in the Exchange Program.

-     Properly tendered Old Options will be canceled on the next business
day following the Expiration Date, which is currently expected to be
December 11, 2002 (the "CANCELLATION DATE").

-     In order to receive a new option, you must remain an employee of
Amkor or one of our subsidiaries or a member of our Board of
Directors as of the date the new options are granted, which will be
no earlier than the first business day that is six months and one
day after the Cancellation Date, which is currently expected to be
June 12, 2003.

-     If you elect to tender an Old Option, all options granted since May
8, 2002 must be tendered.

-     If you elect to tender an Old Option, you will not be eligible to
receive any other options until June 12, 2003 at the earliest.

-     Once we have accepted options you tender, your options will be
cancelled and you will no longer have any rights under those
options.

-     The New Options will be for the same number of shares that were
subject to the Old Options that are tendered in the Exchange
Program, less any shares that were exercised pursuant to the Old
Options before they were tendered. The New Options will be granted
under the 1998 Plan, unless you are a tax resident of France, in
which case your New Option will be granted under the French Plan.

-     All New Options will be nonstatutory stock options (NSOs) for U.S.
income tax purposes.

-     The exercise price of the New Options will be equal to the fair
market value of Amkor shares on the day we grant the New Options,
which is expected to be June 12, 2003. "Fair market value" is the
closing price of Amkor's common stock on Nasdaq on the grant date of
the New Options (the exercise price for grants made under the French
Plan will in no event be less than 80% of the average of the 

-2-

market value of our common stock during the twenty trading days
prior to the grant date). This price may be higher, or lower, or the
same as the exercise price of the Old Options to be cancelled. THERE
IS A POSSIBILITY THAT THE EXERCISE PRICE OF THE NEW OPTIONS COULD BE
HIGHER THAN THE EXERCISE PRICE OF THE OLD OPTIONS.

-     The term of each New Option will be extended by one year beyond the
term of the Old Option. Subject to your continued status as an
employee of Amkor or one of its subsidiaries or a member of the
Board of Directors of Amkor, as applicable, each new option will
vest and be exercisable as follows:

(i) On the one year anniversary of the grant date of your New Option, your
New Option will vest and become exercisable as to the number of shares that
would have been exercisable under the terms of your Old Option on the date your
New Option was granted. For example, if the grant date of the New Options is
June 12, 2003 and you tender an Old Option to purchase 2,000 shares that would
have been fully vested as of June 12, 2003 had it not been cancelled in
connection with the Exchange Program, you will be granted a New Option to
purchase 2,000 shares, all of which will be subject to vesting until June 12,
2004.

(ii) Each month following the one year anniversary of the grant date of
your New Option, any shares subject to your New Option that have not yet vested
will vest and become exercisable as to that number of shares equal to one
forty-eighth (1/48th) of the total shares granted under the Old Option. For
example, if the grant date of the New Option is June 12, 2003 and you tender an
Old Option to purchase 4,000 shares, 3,333 of which would have been vested as of
June 12, 2003 and 667 of which would have been subject to continued vesting at a
rate of 83 shares per month following June 12, 2003 had the Old Option not been
cancelled in connection with the Exchange Program, you will be granted a New
Option to purchase 4,000 shares, 3,333 of which shall be subject to vesting
until June 12, 2004 and 667 of which will shall vest at a rate of 83 shares per
month each month following June 12, 2004.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, New Options granted under the French
Plan will vest and become exercisable four years after the grant date of such
options. 

The Exchange Program is not a guarantee of employment for any period. Your
employment with Amkor or one of its subsidiaries remains "at will" and may be
terminated at any time by either you or Amkor (or one of its subsidiaries, as
applicable), with or without cause or notice, subject to the provisions of the
laws of your country of residence. Any director may be removed at any time upon
the vote of stockholders of Amkor holding a majority of the Amkor's outstanding
common stock.

You should rely only on information contained in the Offer to Exchange or
documents that are referenced in the Offer to Exchange. Amkor has not authorized
any person to interpret this offer or to make any recommendation on our behalf
in connection with this offer. For questions concerning timing or procedural
matters related to the Exchange Program or how to locate additional

-3-

information, you should contact Cathy Loucks, at (480) 821-5000 ext. 5069 or to
the regional Amkor administrators as set forth in Schedule A to the Offer to
Exchange.

Thank you for your continued contributions to Amkor's success.

Senior Vice President, Human Resources

I have received the Offer to Exchange dated November 8, 2002, the

Notice to Change Election From Accept to Reject (together, as they may be
amended from time to time, constituting the "OFFER"), offering eligible
employees the opportunity to exchange certain outstanding (i.e., unexercised)
stock options for options to be granted at least six months and one day

Standard Time on December 10, 2002.

By signing below, I understand and acknowledge that:

(a) Tendering one or more Eligible Options by following the procedure
described in the Offer and in the instructions to this Election Form will
constitute my acceptance of the terms and conditions of the Offer. Amkor's
acceptance for exchange of Eligible Options tendered in accordance with the
Offer will constitute a binding agreement between Amkor and me upon the terms

(b) Upon Amkor's acceptance of the Eligible Options for exchange, this
Election Form will serve as an amendment to the option agreement(s) covering the
Eligible Option(s) that I am tendering.

Plan (unless you are a tax resident of France, in which case your New Options

me, and all applicable laws and regulations.

(d) For each Eligible Option I elect to tender, I lose my right to
purchase all outstanding unexercised shares under that option after it is
accepted and cancelled. 

(e) The New Options I will receive will be granted no earlier than June

THAT THE EXERCISE PRICE OF THE NEW OPTIONS COULD BE HIGHER THAN THE EXERCISE
PRICE OF THE ELIGIBLE OPTIONS.

(f) I must be either an employee of Amkor or one of its subsidiaries or a
member of Amkor's Board of Directors and otherwise be eligible under the 1998
Plan or French Plan, as applicable, on the date the New Options are granted in
order to receive one or more New Options. I UNDERSTAND THAT I WILL HAVE NO
RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO MY CANCELLED STOCK OPTIONS IF MY EMPLOYMENT OR
DIRECTORSHIP IS TERMINATED FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER BEFORE THE GRANT OF THE NEW

IF I ELECT TO CANCEL ANY ELIGIBLE OPTIONS, I must tender all of my options that 
were granted to me during the six-month period prior to the commencement of the 
Offer (that is, since May 8, 2002), if any.

shares that would have been exercisable under the terms of your old option on
the date your new option was granted, subject to your continued status as an
employee of Amkor or one of its subsidiaries or a member of the Board of
Directors of Amkor, as applicable, on each such date. For example, if the grant
date of the new options is June 12, 2003 and you tender an option to purchase
2,000 shares that would have been fully vested as of June 12, 2003 had it not

example, if the grant date of the new option is June 12, 2003 and you tender an
option to purchase 4,000 shares, 3,333 of which would have been vested as of

2.    WITHDRAWALS OF TENDERED OPTIONS.

You may withdraw your tendered options at any time before the Expiration

tendered options before 5:00 p.m., Mountain Standard Time, on December 10, 2002,
you may withdraw your tendered options at any time after such date. You may not
withdraw a validly tendered option that has been accepted by Amkor.

Change Election From Accept to Reject (or a faxed copy of the notice) with the
required information to Amkor while you still have the right to withdraw the

have tendered any Eligible Options you have withdrawn unless you properly
re-tender them before the Expiration Date by delivery of a new Election Form
following the procedures described in these Instructions.

Tenders of options made through the Offer may be changed at any time
before the Expiration Date. If Amkor extends the Offer beyond that time, you may

extended expiration of the Offer. To change your election regarding particular
tendered options while continuing to elect to participate in the Offer, you must
deliver a new signed and dated Election Form, with the required information,
following the procedures described in these Instructions. Upon the receipt of
such a new, properly signed and dated Election Form, any previously submitted

it), waive any right to receive any notice of the acceptance of their tender,
except as provided for in the Offer to Exchange.

Exhibit (a)(6)

AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
VOLUNTARY STOCK OPTION EXCHANGE PROGRAM
PROMISE TO GRANT STOCK OPTION

In exchange for your agreement to cancel a stock option covering _______
shares of common stock ("OLD OPTION") granted by Amkor Technology, Inc.
("AMKOR"), Amkor hereby promises to grant you a stock option covering _________
shares of Amkor's common stock no earlier than June 12, 2003 (the "NEW OPTION").
The exercise price of the New Option will be the closing price of Amkor's common
stock as listed on the Nasdaq National Market on the last market trading day
prior to the date of grant of the New Option.

Each New Option will vest and be exercisable as follows:

(i) On the one year anniversary of the grant date of your New Option, your
New Option will vest and become exercisable as to the number of shares that
would have been exercisable under the terms of your Old Option on the date your
New Option was granted, subject to your continued status as an employee of Amkor
or one of its subsidiaries or a member of the Board of Directors of Amkor, as
applicable, on each such date. For example, if the grant date of the New Option
is June 12, 2003 and you tender an Old Option to purchase 2,000 shares that
would have been fully vested as of June 12, 2003 had it not been cancelled in
connection with the Offer, you will be granted a New Option to purchase 2,000
shares, all of which will be subject to vesting until June 12, 2004.

(ii) Each month following the one year anniversary of the grant date of
your New Option, any shares subject to your New Option that have not yet vested
will vest and become exercisable as to that number of shares equal to one
forty-eighth (1/48th) of the total shares granted under the original option. For
example, if the grant date of the New Option is June 12, 2003 and you tender an
option to purchase 4,000 shares, 3,333 of which would have been vested as of
June 12, 2003 and 667 of which would have been subject to continued vesting at a
rate of 83 shares per month following June 12, 2003 had the option not been
cancelled in connection with the Offer, you will be granted a New Option to
purchase 4,000 shares, 3,333 of which shall be subject to vesting until June 12,
2004 and 667 of which will shall vest at a rate of 83 shares per month each
month following June 12, 2004, subject to your continued status as an employee
of Amkor or one of its subsidiaries or a member of the Board of Directors of
Amkor, as applicable, on each such date.

(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if your New Option is to be granted
under Amkor's 1998 Stock Plan for French Employees (the "French Plan"), such
option will vest and become exercisable four years after the grant date of your
New Option subject to your continued status as an employee of Amkor or one of
its subsidiaries or a member of the Board of Directors of Amkor, as applicable,
on each such date.

The New Option will otherwise be subject to:

-     the standard terms and conditions under Amkor's 1998 Stock Plan, as
may be amended from time to time (the "1998 Plan"), unless you are a
tax resident of France, in which case your New Option will be
subject to the French Plan; and

-     a new option agreement between Amkor and you.

In order to receive the New Option, you must be an employee of Amkor or
one of its subsidiaries or a member of Amkor's Board of Directors on the date
the New Option is granted. This promise to grant does not constitute a guarantee
of employment or service as a director with Amkor or any of its subsidiaries for
any period. Your employment with Amkor or any of our subsidiaries remains
"at-will" and can be terminated by either you or Amkor at any time, with or
without cause or notice, subject to the provisions of the laws of your country
of residence. If your status as a director ceases for any reason or if you
voluntarily terminate your employment with Amkor or any of its subsidiaries or
if your employment is terminated by Amkor or any of its subsidiaries for any
reason whatsoever before the New Option is granted, you will lose all rights you
have to receive the New Option.

This Promise to Grant Stock Option is subject to the terms and conditions
of the Offer to Exchange dated November 8, 2002, the memorandum from Cathy
Loucks dated November 8, 2002, and the Election Form previously completed and
submitted by you to Amkor, all of which are incorporated herein by reference.
These documents reflect the entire agreement between you and Amkor with respect
to this transaction. This Promise to Grant Stock Option may only be amended by
means of a writing signed by you and a duly authorized officer of Amkor.
