Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Item 11.   Executive Compensation
 
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
 
During 2006, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors consisted of Mr. Churchill and Dr. Papadakis. Mr. Hinckley replaced Mr. Churchill on the Compensation Committee in January 2007. No member of the Compensation Committee was an officer or employee of Amkor or any of Amkor’s subsidiaries during 2006, or had any relationship requiring disclosure under SEC regulations. None of Amkor’s Compensation Committee members or executive officers has served on the board of directors or on the compensation committee of any other entity one of whose executive officers served on our Board of Directors or on our Compensation Committee.
 
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
 
The primary objectives of our compensation program are to attract personnel for positions of substantial responsibility, to provide incentives for such persons to perform to the best of their abilities, and to promote the success of our business. The subcontracted semiconductor packaging and test market is very competitive. To effectively compete and succeed in this market, we need to ensure that we have key senior management and technical personnel with the talent, leadership and commitment needed to operate our business, create new technologies, anticipate and effectively respond to new challenges, and to make and execute difficult decisions.
 
These objectives guide our Chief Executive Officer as he seeks to design pay packages with an appropriate mix of fixed and variable compensation and thereby enable Amkor to recruit and motivate key executives while maintaining a reasonable cost structure relative to our competitors. The Compensation Committee evaluates the compensation packages, as presented by the Chief Executive Officer, based on the foregoing objectives. While the Compensation Committee has not historically used the services of compensation consultants, we have retained an outside compensation consultant to assist the Compensation Committee in establishing competitive compensation packages for 2007. The compensation consultant will report to the Compensation Committee and provide it with compensation and peer group data, among other data points.
 
Our 2006 compensation program contains standard elements such as base salary, performance-based bonus opportunities and equity awards. As part of our effort to respond as necessary and appropriate to rapid changes within our industry, we have placed increasing emphasis on variable pay for our more senior level executives. This practice ensures that our most senior level executives are held accountable to stockholders for our operational and financial performance.
 
It is the philosophy of the Chief Executive Officer that annual equity grants are of limited usefulness as a key element of compensation for our executives because of the highly cyclical nature of the semiconductor industry and the volatility of our stock. As such, it is the Chief Executive Officer’s view that management and the Compensation Committee must have the flexibility to determine the appropriate executive compensation structure, to allow for a proper mix of cash, equity and other incentives, as market conditions and the cyclicality of the industry dictate over time. As a result, the total cash compensation component (base salary plus bonus) represents a greater portion of our total executive compensation structure.
 
The Compensation Committee annually reviews and approves the total compensation for our executive officers and recommends to the independent members of our Board of Directors the compensation policy and forms of compensation to be received by our executive officers. In setting our named executive officers’ overall compensation, the Compensation Committee considers a variety of factors related to Amkor’s performance, including (i) gross profit (“Gross Profit”) as reported in our consolidated financial statements in our annual report on


4


Table of Contents

Form 10-K, (ii) pre-tax income before any one-time items and refinancing charges (“Pre-Tax Income”), and (iii) individual performance, as measured by the Compensation Committee based on a subjective review by the Chief Executive Officer of each executive’s performance. Other considerations include Amkor’s business objectives, our fiduciary and corporate responsibilities, competitive practices and trends, and regulatory requirements.
 
All members of the Compensation Committee are independent directors in accordance with Nasdaq, SEC and Internal Revenue Code rules. The Compensation Committee operates under a written charter that has been approved by the Board of Directors. A copy of the charter is available at http://www.amkor.com.
 
Our Compensation Program Rewards Individual and Company Performance
 
Our compensation program is designed to reward high levels of performance at a company and individual level. Our key executive incentive compensation components currently consist of cash bonuses and stock options, both of which are designed to reward our performance and superior individual performance. In addition, given the volatility of our industry and the impact that volatility has on our variable pay, we also strive to provide competitive base salaries in order to ensure a baseline level of stable income, and health and welfare benefits in order to promote the well-being of our executives. Consistent with our emphasis on variable pay, we have been shifting our focus away from perquisites and other supplemental personal benefits. As part of this shift, in 2006 we terminated the practice of leasing automobiles on behalf of our U.S. executive officers.
 
Our Chief Executive Officer reviews the performance of each of his direct reports on an ongoing basis. Based on this ongoing assessment of performance, our Chief Executive Officer makes recommendations to the Compensation Committee regarding the compensation of executive officers. With the exception of the Korean-based severance benefit provided to Mr. KyuHyun Kim, as described in the “Severance Benefits” section below, we have not entered into, and generally do not enter into, individual employment, severance or change-in-control agreements with any of our named executive officers. This gives us the flexibility to enforce adherence to Amkor’s values, ethics and performance standards, as needed and appropriate, without the limitations of contractual obligations that may detract from stockholder value.
 
Our compensation program is not designed to solely reward continued service. We do not maintain a pension program for our U.S.-based executives, and all salary increases and non-benefit related compensation other than base salary are structured in a manner that rewards performance, not length of service. We do not pay our executive officers retention or stay bonuses.
 
To that end, our cash-based 2006 Executive Incentive Bonus Plan was designed to reward executives based on our profitability, as measured by Gross Profit, Pre-Tax Income and individual performance, as measured by the Compensation Committee based on a subjective review by the Chief Executive Officer of each executive’s performance. In addition, although our current long-term incentive program consists of stock option grants that vest over time, the intrinsic nature of a stock option is that it will only provide value to the executives to the extent our stock price increases over the life of the stock option.
 
Elements of our Compensation Program
 
Amkor provides two main types of compensation — fixed compensation and variable compensation. Fixed elements of compensation are not correlated directly to any measure of Amkor’s performance and include items such as (i) base salary, (ii) 401(k) matching contributions, (iii) health and welfare benefits, and (iv) limited perquisites and supplemental benefits. Variable elements of compensation are based on performance and include such items as (i) annual performance bonuses, (ii) special incentive bonuses, and (iii) equity awards in the form of options to purchase shares of our common stock. We accrue an amount related to a severance benefit plan on behalf of KyuHyun Kim, President of Amkor Technology Korea and Head of Worldwide Manufacturing Operations, and who is one of our named executive officers. This severance benefit is described further in the “Severance Benefits” section below. With the exception of the foregoing, we do not have any employment, severance or change-in-control arrangements in place with any of our named executive officers.

Base Salary and Annual Incentive Opportunities
 
We pay base salaries to our U.S.-based executives on a bi-weekly basis. Mr. KyuHyun Kim is paid monthly. The primary purpose of base salaries at Amkor is to provide a stable source of income in order to attract key executives. We also use base salary increases to reward high performing executives and to recognize increases in the scope of an individual’s responsibilities, as applicable. We seek to set base salaries at a level that is sufficient to be attractive to current and prospective executives. The primary factors we consider when setting base salaries include the experience and expertise of the individual, the value of the position to our organization and ongoing strategy, internal equity considerations, and the input of our Chief Executive Officer, James J. Kim. Our Chief Executive Officer’s compensation for 2006 was determined by the Compensation Committee based on the value of Mr. Kim’s strategic guidance and leadership of our company.
 
We also pay annual cash bonuses to our executives based on the executive’s performance and our annual audited financial results. Given the need for audited financials, we pay annual cash bonuses, if any, in the year following the year during which performance was measured. The primary purpose of the annual cash bonus plan is to focus the attention of key executives on our operational and financial performance. In addition, unlike stock options, our annual cash bonus program allows us to set individual and company-wide goals that are viewed as critical to our overall success on an annual basis. This provides us with the flexibility to adapt our focus and goals as business priorities and executives’ roles change over time. Bonuses are paid to executives for a given year only if the performance goals approved by the independent members of our Board of Directors for that year are achieved.
 
Our 2006 Executive Incentive Bonus Plan (the “2006 Bonus Plan”) provided each executive with a target bonus amount that could be earned based on achievement relative to three goals: (i) Gross Profit (weighted at 50%), (ii) Pre-Tax Income (weighted at 25%), and (iii) an individual performance component (weighted at 25%). The target bonus amount for each named executive officer was approved by the Compensation Committee and was based on our forecasted operating results, the strategic value of the position to the organization’s goals, and the Chief Executive Officer’s recommendation for the executive officers reporting to him. The formula used to determine payments under the 2006 Bonus Plan was approved by the Compensation Committee with the goal of aligning executive cash compensation with our profitability and individual performance.
 
To that end, the 2006 Bonus Plan used the following payout formula:
 
  •  0% of the target bonus amount if less than 80% of the corporate Gross Profit and Pre-Tax Income goals were achieved, regardless of individual performance;
 
  •  50% of the target bonus amount if 80% of the corporate Gross Profit and Pre-Tax Income goals were achieved (“threshold”);
 
  •  100% of the target bonus amount if 100% of the corporate Gross Profit and Pre-Tax Income goals were achieved (“target”); and
 
  •  150% of the target bonus amount if 120% of the corporate Gross Profit and Pre-Tax Income goals were achieved (“maximum”).
 
The 2006 Bonus Plan also provided that the Compensation Committee and independent members of our Board of Directors may award, on the recommendation of our Chief Executive Officer, an additional amount in discretionary bonuses. For 2006, $245,000 was the maximum aggregate amount available for award in discretionary bonuses to executive officers and employees that were eligible to participate in the 2006 Bonus Plan.
 
Following the end of 2006, the Compensation Committee compared Amkor’s actual performance to the 2006 Bonus Plan’s performance targets for 2006 and applied the 2006 bonus formula to this actual performance. Applying the pre-established bonus formula to this financial performance resulted in bonuses at approximately 96% of target levels.

(1) Excludes a $175,000 special cash incentive bonus described under Special Incentive Bonuses.
 
At the Compensation Committee’s recommendation, James J. Kim, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, was awarded a cash bonus in the amount of $1.04 million based on Amkor’s performance for 2006. The 2006 Bonus Plan did not establish bonus targets or amounts for Mr. Kim. In the absence of a pre-approved bonus plan for Mr. Kim, the Compensation Committee and the independent members of our Board of Directors applied the formula set forth in the 2006 Bonus Plan for Amkor’s other executive officers and determined that it was appropriate to award Mr. Kim a bonus in the amount of $1.04 million.
 
Special Incentive Bonuses
 
From time to time, Amkor also awards special cash incentive bonuses, as deemed appropriate by the Compensation Committee. The purpose of these payments is to recognize significant individual contributions that would not, in the view of the Compensation Committee, be fully accounted for under our annual cash bonus program. The amount of any special cash incentive award for executive officers is determined and approved by the Compensation Committee and independent members of our Board of Directors. In 2006, Ken Joyce, our Chief Financial Officer, received a $175,000 special cash incentive award to recognize his contributions on key projects during 2006 such as, realignment of the debt components of our capital structure through a series of complex financings, which also resulted in a significant reduction in interest expense on a going forward basis. This was accomplished in a difficult environment with many ongoing management distractions, and in a time period during which financing had not been readily available to Amkor.
 
Long-term Incentive Compensation
 
Historically, Amkor has typically made stock option grants to executives on an annual basis with time-based vesting requiring continued service through each vesting date. The primary purpose of stock option grants at Amkor is to align all executives with each other and stockholders with a common goal of long-term stockholder value creation. Amkor believes that stock options motivate executives by allowing them to share in the value they create for stockholders. In 2005, we did not grant stock options to any of our named executive officers. In 2006, we granted stock options to our named executive officers that vest 100% two years from the date of grant. Amkor feels that stock options issued with exercise prices equal to fair market value on the date of grant that have a time-based vesting requirement can be an effective tool because the stock options only produce value to the extent that the employee continues to be employed by us and the stock price increases, which in turn creates value for all stockholders.
 
The number of stock options granted to our executive officers, and the frequency of such option grants is determined by the Chief Executive Officer and approved by the Compensation Committee. Although a number of factors are considered, the number of stock options granted to our executive officers is determined on a case-by-case, discretionary basis, rather than on a formula basis. Factors considered include the input of our Chief Executive Officer, individual performance potential and any retention concerns. In 2006, we engaged a compensation consulting firm to assess our stock option and equity granting procedures and practices and to make recommendations on possible improvements. In February 2007, based on the compensation consulting firm’s

review, the Compensation Committee adopted a new Equity Award Policy which covers the approval and granting of stock options and other equity awards to employees.
 
We have also structured our compensation programs to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. During 2006, we conducted an internal review of past stock option grants which is described in further detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. As part of this review, it was determined that certain options granted after July 1, 2004 were granted at a discount from fair market value and therefore may be subject to adverse tax consequences under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. Given the potential for adverse tax consequences for our employees under Section 409A, we offered eligible U.S. employees a voluntary choice to increase the exercise price of certain of their unvested stock options granted after July 1, 2004 to the fair market value on the option’s measurement date for reporting purposes in exchange for cash consideration equal to the product of the number of shares underlying the stock option and the difference between the fair market value on the option’s measurement and the current exercise price of the stock option. James M. Fusaro, our Corporate Vice President, Wire Bond Products, and a named executive officer, was eligible to participate in this offer. He accepted the offer and increased to $5.71 the exercise price of options to purchase 32,000 shares of our common stock in exchange for $24,960, which represented the difference between the prior exercise price and the amended exercise price multiplied by the number of options amended. None of our other executive officers participated in this offer because they did not have any options that were potentially impacted by Section 409A.
 
Timing of Grants
 
The Compensation Committee has not granted, nor does it intend in the future to grant, stock options to executives in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information that is likely to result in changes to the price of our common stock, such as a significant positive or negative earnings announcement. In addition, discretionary stock option grants may not be made during certain “black out” periods established in connection with the public release of earnings information. Similarly, the Compensation Committee has not timed, nor does it intend in the future to time, the release of material nonpublic information based on stock option grant dates.
 
Other Compensation Elements
 
Health and Welfare Benefits.  Our executives are eligible to participate in benefit programs that are generally available to substantially all salaried, full-time employees, as determined by the country of their employment.
 
Retirement Benefits.  We do not have a pension in place for U.S. employees or executives. We do offer a tax-qualified 401(k) plan that, subject to IRS limits, allows executives and employees to contribute a portion of their cash compensation on a pre-tax basis to an account that is eligible to receive matching contributions. After one year of employment, we match employee contributions at a rate of 75% of the amount of compensation deferred by the participant, up to a maximum matching contribution of $6,000 per year. The match vests ratably over three years.
 
KyuHyun Kim, President of Amkor Technology Korea and our Head of Worldwide Manufacturing Operations, participates in a severance program that we provide our Korean executives. This severance program provides executives with a one-time lump sum benefit at the time of separation, which benefit is calculated based on average monthly salary, years of service and seniority.
 
Perquisites and Personal Benefits.  In addition to the health and welfare benefits generally available to all salaried, full-time employees, Amkor also provides certain named executive officers with annual medical screening. Although they make up a small portion of total compensation for our named executive officers, the purpose of these compensation elements is to promote the continuous well-being of our executives, and to ensure that our most critical employees are able to devote their attention to our ongoing success.
 
In 2006, we also provided our U.S.-based named executive officers with leased automobiles, which were available for personal use, and reimbursed them for fuel expenses. In December 2006, we terminated our leased automobile program for U.S. executives. In connection with the termination of the program, we made one-time payments of $14,000 to each of Messrs. Khaykin, Joyce and Fusaro, which could be applied by each executive toward the purchase of his vehicle. The $14,000 amount approximated the cost to us to terminate each lease. We also provided a one-time benefit of $28,000 to Mr. James Kim in connection with the termination of this program

and the sale of two company-owned vehicles to Mr. Kim. We continue to provide KyuHyun Kim with a company-paid car.
 
Tax and Accounting Considerations
 
Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) imposes limitations on the deductibility for federal income tax purposes of compensation over $1 million paid to each of our five most highly paid executive officers in a taxable year. Compensation above $1 million may only be deducted if it is “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of the Code. Stock option awards generally are performance-based compensation meeting those requirements and, as such, are fully deductible provided that they have been granted by a committee whose members are non-employee directors. To maintain flexibility in compensating executive officers in a manner designed to promote varying corporate goals, we have not adopted a policy requiring all compensation to be deductible. For 2006, certain amounts paid did not qualify as performance-based compensation and were not deductible.
 
Amkor’s stock option practices have been impacted by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R) Share-Based Payments (“SFAS No. 123(R)”). Pursuant to SFAS No. 123(R), we are required to record an expense on our income statement for all unvested stock options over their remaining vesting period.
 
Report Of The Compensation Committee Of The Board Of Directors
 
The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed with management the Compensation Discussion and Analysis for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006. Based on the review and discussions, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board of Directors, and the Board has approved, that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in Amkor’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A.
 
This report is submitted by the Compensation Committee.

Notes
 
(1) The amounts in the Option Awards column reflect the dollar amount recognized for financial statement reporting purposes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R), and may include amounts from awards granted in and prior to 2006. Pursuant to SEC rules, the amounts shown exclude the impact of estimated forfeitures related to service- based vesting conditions. Assumptions used in the calculation of these amounts are included in Note 3 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2006, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 26, 2007. See the Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table below for information on options granted in 2006. These amounts reflect the accounting expense for these awards, and do not correspond to the actual value, if any, that will be recognized by the named executive officers.
 
(2) During August 2004, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors approved the full vesting of all unvested outstanding employee stock options that were issued prior to July 1, 2004. As a result, the expense for those awards has already been recognized. See the Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End Table below for more information on outstanding stock option awards.
 
(3) Amounts paid pursuant to the terms of the 2006 Bonus Plan, which contains both formula-based criteria and discretionary components (that apply only if certain financial criteria are met) which are described in more detail in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis above.
 
(4) See the All Other Compensation Table below for additional information.

(1) Represents the number of stock options granted to our named executive officers during our last fiscal year. These options were granted under the 1998 Stock Plan with a term of 10 years, subject to earlier termination upon certain events related to termination of employment. The options vest 100% twenty-four (24) months after the date of grant. Upon a qualified Retirement, the options will continue to vest for an additional twelve (12) months following the date of retirement. The optionee will then have thirty (30) days following such twelve (12) month period to exercise the option, provided that, in no event shall the option be exercisable beyond their expiration date.
 
(2) All options were granted at fair market value (closing price for our common stock on the date of grant, as reported by Nasdaq).
 
(3) The indicated present value amounts are based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model. For purposes of the Black-Scholes model, we assumed a volatility of 78.4%, a risk-free rate of return of 4.6%, a dividend yield of 0%, and an expected life of 5.8 years. Actual gains, if any, on exercise will be dependent on a number of factors, including our future performance and performance of our common stock, and overall market conditions as well as the holders’ continued employment through the vesting period. As a result, the indicated present values may vary substantially from actual realized values.

Severance Benefits
 
None of our U.S. executives has a pension benefit or post-retirement health coverage arrangement provided by Amkor. KyuHyun Kim participates in a severance benefit program under which Korean executives are entitled to a one-time lump sum benefit at the time of separation. This amount is calculated based on average monthly salary, years of service and seniority. Under this severance benefit, Mr. KyuHyun Kim will be entitled to certain benefits upon termination of his employment with Amkor, as follows:

(2) Mr. Kim’s benefit is payable in the form of a lump sum which is calculated directly based on average monthly salary, years of service and seniority on the date of separation. The lump sum is payable immediately upon separation without any adjustment. As such, there is no conversion of an annuity to a lump sum and, thus, no need for assumptions concerning either mortality or a discount rate.
 
(3) The exchange rate from Korean Won to U.S. dollars was based on the spot rate on December 31, 2006 (930Won = $1USD).
 
Post Employment Compensation
 
As described in Compensation Discussion and Analysis above, our named executive officers are employees at will and do not have employment, change-in-control or severance agreements with us. The information and related tables presented below reflect the amount of compensation that would become payable to our named executive officers upon certain events if the named executive officer’s employment had terminated on December 31, 2006. The figures shown are based on Amkor’s closing stock price on that date and any actual amounts paid under these scenarios, should they occur in the future, may be different. For purposes of this section, we have excluded amounts

that would become payable under programs that are generally available to Amkor’s salaried employees (e.g., our 401(k) plan and company-provided life insurance).
 
Cash Payments upon Termination of Service
 
Amkor does not have any executive contracts or agreements that provide for cash severance payments for terminations of any kind for U.S.-based executives. Furthermore, there is no policy that obligates us to pay severance under any circumstances. In the past, we have had an informal practice regarding severance payments where employees whose service is involuntarily terminated due to a reduction in force have generally received three weeks of base salary pay for their first year of service and one week of base salary for every year of service thereafter. This practice and formula has been used typically for non-executive officers. For executives, our past practice has generally ranged from providing six to twelve months of base salary and in one case, approximately 24 months. Mr. KyuHyun Kim participates in a severance benefit plan whereby he will be entitled to certain benefits upon termination of employment with Amkor. These benefits are described under the Severance Benefits section above.
 
Treatment of Equity upon Termination
 
Our stock incentive plans and related award agreements provide that upon termination or death, unvested shares revert to the plans under which they were granted except upon a change of control or upon retirement for shares granted after April 4, 2001. The following table shows the additional vesting, if any, for unvested stock option awards and the exercise periods for vested stock option awards, if applicable, should the following events occur.

(1) Normal Retirement is defined as termination of service on or after the date when the sum of (i) the optionee’s age (rounded down to the nearest whole month), plus (ii) the number of years (rounded down to the nearest whole month) that the optionee has provided services equals or is greater than seventy-five (75).
 
(2) Shares granted after April 4, 2001 will continue to vest for 12 months following the optionee’s retirement. The optionee has an additional 30 days after such 12 month period to exercise his or her options.
 
Based on the treatment outlined in the preceding table, the following table shows the value attributable to the acceleration of vesting for outstanding stock options, if applicable, under each event. The value shown is based on a termination date of December 31, 2006 using the closing price of our common stock on that date, which was $9.34.

Director Compensation
 
Annual Retainer and Meeting Fees
 
We do not compensate directors, who are also employees or officers, for their services as directors. During 2006, non-employee directors received an annual retainer, which is paid quarterly, and Board and committee

meeting fees. The cash compensation paid to our non-employee Board members in 2006 is set forth in the following table.

    2,000 (4)
 
 
(1) Effective as of November 6, 2006, the annual retainer for Board members increased to $35,000.
 
(2) Effective as of February 6, 2007, an annual retainer of $10,000 was approved for the chairman of the Audit Committee which replaced the additional $1,000 per meeting fee paid to committee chairs.
 
(3) Effective as of February 6, 2007, an annual retainer of $5,000 was approved for the chairmen of the Compensation Committee and Nominating and Governance Committee which replaced the additional $1,000 per meeting fee paid to committee chairs.
 
(4) Effective as of January 13, 2007, the fee per non-regularly scheduled and/or telephonic Board and Committee meetings is: (i) $500 for meetings lasting less than thirty minutes; (ii) $1,000 for meetings lasting between thirty minutes and one hour; and (iii) $2,000 for meetings lasting longer than one hour.
 
From time to time, the Board of Directors establishes special committees to address specific issues. During 2006, certain members of our Board served on such committees, which required a significant commitment of additional time and effort. The directors were compensated for their service on the special committees as set forth in the Summary Director Compensation Table below.
 
In addition to the retainer and meeting fees, we also reimburse non-employee directors for travel and other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in attending Board and Committee meetings.
 
Equity Compensation
 
Each non-employee director automatically received upon re-election to the Board of Directors at our 2006 Annual Meeting options to purchase 10,000 shares of our common stock under the terms of our 1998 Stock Plan, which was initially adopted by our Board of Directors in January 1998 and was amended and restated on August 24, 2005 (the “1998 Stock Plan”). The director option grants are automatic and non-discretionary. The 1998 Stock Plan provides for an initial grant of options to purchase 20,000 shares of our common stock to each new non-employee director when such individual first becomes an outside director. In addition, each non-employee director is automatically granted an additional option to purchase 10,000 shares of our common stock when the director is re-elected to the Board of Directors by our stockholders, provided that the director has served on our Board of Directors for at least six consecutive months prior to his re-election.
 
Director option grants have a term of ten years and vest in three equal installments on the anniversary dates of the date of grant. Subject to certain customary exceptions, unvested and unexercised vested options are forfeited if a director ceases to be a member of the Board of Directors. In the event of a merger or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, the acquiring entity or corporation may either assume all outstanding options or may substitute equivalent options. Following an assumption or substitution, if the director is terminated, other than upon a voluntary resignation, any assumed or substituted options will vest and become exercisable in full. If the acquiring entity does not either assume all of the outstanding options or substitute an equivalent option, each option issued

Table of Contents

will immediately vest and become exercisable in full. The 1998 Stock Plan will terminate in January 2008 unless sooner terminated by the Board of Directors.
 
Historically, grants to non-employee directors were granted under our 1998 Director Option Plan (the “Director Plan”), which was adopted by our Board of Directors in January 1998 and has terms substantially similar to the 1998 Stock Plan. Future grants to non-employee directors may be granted under the Director Plan or the 1998 Stock Plan.

(2) The amounts in the Option Awards column reflect the dollar amount recognized for financial statement reporting purposes for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R), and may include amounts from awards granted in and prior to 2006. Pursuant to SEC rules, the amounts shown exclude the impact of estimated forfeitures related to service-based vesting conditions. Assumptions used in the calculation of these amounts are included in Note 3 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 26, 2007.
 
(3) Under the current Director compensation program, non-employee directors receive an annual grant of 10,000 stock options. For 2006, stock options were granted on August 8, 2006 with an exercise price of $5.82, the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of the annual director grants was $43,100 or $4.31 per share. One-third (1/3) of the options become exercisable on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date.
 
(4) Upon initial election to the Board, directors are granted options to purchase 20,000 shares of our common stock. Mr. Carolin was granted, in connection with his appointment to our Board of Directors on February 7, 2006, options to purchase 20,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $5.87, the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. The aggregate fair value of the annual director grants for 2006 was $83,400, or $4.17 per share. One-third of the options granted become exercisable on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the grant date.

(a) The number and percentage of shares beneficially owned is determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under this rule, beneficial ownership includes any share over which the individual or entity has voting power or investment power. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, shares of our common stock subject to options held by that person that will become exercisable on or before May 30, 2007 are deemed outstanding. Unless otherwise indicated, each person or entity has sole voting and investment power with respect to shares shown as beneficially owned.

Each of the individuals, trusts, and the James and Agnes Kim Foundation, Inc., listed above, may be deemed members of the James J. Kim Family Control Group (the “James J. Kim Family”) under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act on the basis that the trust agreement for certain of these trusts encourages the trustees of the trusts to vote the shares of common stock held by them, in their discretion, in concert with the James J. Kim Family and it is likely that the trustees of the other trusts will do the same. James J. and Agnes C. Kim are husband and wife. David D. Kim, John T. Kim and Susan Y. Kim are the children of James J. and Agnes C. Kim. Each of the David D. Kim Trust of December 31, 1987, the John T. Kim Trust of December 31, 1987 and the Susan Y. Kim Trust of December 31, 1987 has as their sole trustee David D. Kim, John T. Kim and Susan Y. Kim, respectively. Susan Y. Kim is the parent of Alexandra Panichello, Jacqueline Panichello and Dylan Panichello and is the co-trustee of each of her children’s trusts along with John T. Kim. These trusts are as follows: Trust U/D of Susan Y. Kim dated 4/16/98 f/b/o Alexandra Panichello, Trust U/D of Susan Y. Kim dated 4/16/98 f/b/o Jacqueline Panichello, and Trust U/D of Susan Y. Kim dated 4/16/98 f/b/o Dylan Panichello. John T. Kim established the “Trust U/D of John T. Kim dated 10/27/04 f/b/o his children” with himself and Susan Y. Kim as co-trustees. James J. Kim has established trusts for each of the children of Susan Y. Kim, John T. Kim, and David D. Kim as follows: Trust U/D of James J. Kim dated 10/3/94 f/b/o Jacqueline Mary Panichello (John T. Kim and Susan Y. Kim as co-trustees), Trust U/D of James J. Kim dated 12/24/92 f/b/o Alexandra Kim Panichello (John T. Kim and Susan Y. Kim as co-trustees), Trust U/D of James J. Kim dated 10/15/01 f/b/o Dylan James Panichello (John T. Kim and Susan Y. Kim as co-trustees), Trust U/D of James J. Kim dated 10/15/01 f/b/o Allyson Lee Kim (John T. Kim and Susan Y. Kim as co-trustees), Trust U/D of James J. Kim dated 11/17/03 f/b/o Jason Lee Kim (John T. Kim and Susan Y. Kim as co-trustees), the Trust U/D of James J. Kim dated 11/11/05 f/b/o Children of David D. Kim (John T. Kim and David D. Kim as co-trustees). The trustees of each trust may be deemed to be the beneficial owners of the shares held by such trust.
 
The James J. Kim Family may be deemed to have beneficial ownership of 87,444,424 shares or approximately 45.23% of the outstanding shares of common stock. Each of the foregoing persons stated that the filing of their beneficial ownership reporting statements shall not be construed as an admission that such person is, for the purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Exchange Act, the beneficial owner of the shares of common stock reported as beneficially owned by the other such persons.
 
(c) As reported by FMR Corp. and Edward C. Johnson 3d, chairman of FMR Corp., on a Schedule 13G/A filed with the SEC on February 14, 2007. FMR Corp. reported that it has sole voting power with respect to 2,201,382 shares and sole investment power for 26,074,645 shares. Mr. Johnson reported he has sole voting and investment power for 26,074,645 shares.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
 
Related Party Transactions
 
As of March 31, 2007, Mr. James J. Kim and members of his immediate family and related trusts beneficially owned approximately 45.2% of our outstanding common stock.
 
In November 2005, we sold $100.0 million of our 6.25% Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2013 in a private placement to James J. Kim, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and certain Kim family members. The 2013 Notes are convertible into Amkor’s common stock and are subordinated to the prior payment in full of all of Amkor’s senior and senior subordinated debt. See Note 12 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 26, 2007 for additional information.
 
Mr. JooHo Kim is an employee of Amkor and a brother of James J. Kim, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Previously, Mr. JooHo Kim owned with his children and other Kim Family members 58.11% of Anam Information Technology, Inc., a company that provided computer hardware and software components to Amkor Technology Korea, Inc. (a subsidiary of Amkor). Mr. JooHo Kim sold all of his shares in the fourth quarter of 2006. Other Kim family members owned 48.3% as of December 31, 2006. As of September 30, 2006, a decision was made to discontinue services, and such services continue to decrease in volume. The services provided by Anam Information Technology are subject to competitive bid. During 2006, 2005, and 2004, purchases from Anam Information Technology, Inc. were $0.3 million, $1.8 million and $1.2 million, respectively. Amounts due to Anam Information Technology, Inc. at December 31, 2006 and 2005 were $0 million and $0.3 million, respectively.
 
Mr. JooHo Kim, together with his wife and children, own 96.1% of Jesung C&M, a company that provides cafeteria services to Amkor Technology Korea, Inc. The services provided by Jesung C&M are subject to competitive bid. During 2006, 2005, and 2004, purchases from Jesung C&M were $6.5 million, $6.5 million, and $6.4 million, respectively. Amounts due to Jesung C&M at December 31, 2006 and 2005 were $0.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively.
 
Dongan Engineering Co., Ltd. was 100% owned by JooCheon Kim, a brother of James J. Kim, until the third quarter of 2005. There is no longer any related party ownership. Mr. JooCheon Kim is not an employee of Amkor. Dongan Engineering Co., Ltd. provided construction and maintenance services to Amkor Technology Korea, Inc. and Amkor Technology Philippines, Inc., both subsidiaries of Amkor. The services provided by Dongan Engineering were subject to competitive bid. During 2005 and 2004, purchases from Dongan Engineering Co., Ltd were $0.5 million and $3.0 million, respectively. Amounts due to Dongan Engineering Co., Ltd. at December 31, 2005 were not significant.

2004, purchases from Acqutek Semiconductor & Technology Co., Ltd. were $16.7 million, $11.8 million and $11.8 million, respectively. Amounts due to Acqutek Semiconductor & Technology Co., Ltd. at December 31, 2006 and 2005, were $1.3 million and $1.4 million, respectively. The purchases are arms length and on terms consistent with our non-related party vendors.
 
We lease office space in West Chester, Pennsylvania from trusts related to James J. Kim. During 2006, 2005, and 2004, amounts paid for this lease were $0.1 million, $0.6 million, and $1.1 million, respectively. We vacated a portion of this space in connection with the move of our corporate headquarters to Arizona and paid a lease termination fee of $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2005. We currently lease approximately 2,700 square feet of office space from these trusts. The sublease income has been assigned to the trusts as part of vacating the office space effective July 1, 2005. The lease term is for two years, through June 30, 2007 subject to a two year renewal. Current plans are to vacate the space in June 2007. During 2005 and 2004 our sublease income includes $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively, from related parties.
 
We entered into indemnification agreements with our officers and directors. These agreements contain provisions that may require us, among other things, to indemnify the officers and directors against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers (other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct of a culpable nature). We also agreed to advance them any expenses for proceedings against them that we agreed to indemnify them from.
 
Review and Approval of Related Party Transactions
 
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors reviews and approves in advance proposed related party transactions, including those required to be disclosed under SEC rules.
 
Director Independence
 
The Board of Directors determined prior to and in connection with the election of directors at our 2006 Annual Meeting of Stockholders that each of Messrs. Carolin, Churchill, Hinckley, Papadakis and Zug is independent under the listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market and SEC rules. In reaching a determination that Mr. Churchill is independent under the Nasdaq listing standards and SEC rules, the Board of Directors considered certain relationships between entities affiliated with Mr. Churchill and entities affiliated with James J. Kim. None of these relationships involved Amkor. The Board determined that it is reasonable to conclude Mr. Churchill satisfies the independence requirements set forth by both Nasdaq and the SEC.

Policy on Audit Committee’s Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
Our Audit Committee is required to pre-approve the audit and non-audit services performed by our independent registered public accounting firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers, in accordance with the Amkor Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy. This policy provides for pre-approval of audit, audit-related, tax services and other services specifically described by the Audit Committee. The policy also provides for the general approval of additional individual engagements, which, if they exceed certain pre-established thresholds, must be separately approved by the Audit Committee.
 
This policy authorizes the Audit Committee to delegate to one or more of its members pre-approval authority with respect to permitted services, provided that any such pre-approval decisions must be reported to the Audit Committee. All of the services provided by PricewaterhouseCoopers during the year ended December 31, 2006 were approved by the Audit Committee. Additionally, the Audit Committee concluded that the provision of such services by PricewaterhouseCoopers was compatible with the maintenance of that firm’s independence in the conduct of its auditing functions.
