TABLE OF CONTENTS
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On October 6, 2006, Amkor Technology, Inc. (the Company) issued a press release announcing
that it filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) its quarterly report on Form
10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 (the Quarterly Report). In addition, Amkor announced
that it filed its annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2005 and its
quarterly report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 containing restatements of
financial results for 2003, 2004 and 2005 and the first quarters of 2005 and 2006. The
restatements arise from the completion of the previously announced investigation of a Special
Committee of the Board of Directors, assisted by independent counsel, of Amkors historical stock
option practices.
On August 15, 2006, Amkor disclosed that it had received letters from U.S. Bank National
Association as trustee and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as trustee alleging that the failure of Amkor to
file its Quarterly Report constituted a default under the indentures governing each of the
Companys outstanding series of notes. With the filing of the Quarterly Report, Amkor has cured
this alleged default under the indentures. The cure of the alleged default under the
indentures renders the consent solicitation unnecessary, and, accordingly, the solicitation is
being terminated by the Company. Consistent with the terms of the Consent Solicitation Statements,
Amkor will not accept any of the consents for payment and will not pay a consent fee to the holders
of any series of notes.
A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
