in an amount equal to such Lender's Commitment. Amounts of the Term Loan prepaid
may not be reborrowed. The Commitments shall be reduced to zero immediately
after the Term Loan Borrowing has been made.
SECTION 2.2 BORROWING PROCEDURE.
(a) The Term Loan Borrowing shall be made on the Closing Date
following receipt of a Notice of Borrowing given by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) three
Business Days prior to the Closing Date. The Notice of Borrowing shall specify
(i) the Closing Date and (ii) the aggregate amount of the proposed Term Loan
Borrowing. The Term Loan shall be made as a EuroDollar Rate Loan.
(b) The Administrative Agent shall give to each Lender prompt notice
of the Administrative Agent's receipt of a Notice of Borrowing and the
applicable interest rate determined pursuant to Section 2.10(a) (Determination
of Interest Rate). Each Lender shall, before 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the
Closing Date, make available to the Administrative Agent at its address referred
to in Section 8.8 (Notices, Etc.), in immediately available funds, such Lender's
Ratable Portion of such proposed Borrowing. Upon fulfillment (or due waiver in
accordance with Section 8.1 (Amendments, Waivers, Etc.)) on the Closing Date, of
the applicable conditions set forth in Section 3.1 (Conditions Precedent) and
after the Administrative Agent's receipt of such funds, the Administrative Agent
shall make such funds available to the Borrower.
(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from
a Lender prior to the date of any proposed Borrowing that such Lender will not
make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's Ratable Portion of such
Borrowing (or any portion thereof), the Administrative Agent may assume that
such Lender has made such Ratable Portion available to the Administrative Agent
on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with this Section 2.2 and the
Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to
the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such
Lender shall not have so made such Ratable Portion available to the
Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay to
the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together
with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available
to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative
Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the
time to the Term Loan and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds
Rate for the first Business Day and thereafter at the interest rate applicable
at the time to the Term Loan. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative
Agent such corresponding amount, such corresponding amount so repaid shall
constitute such Lender's Term Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of
this Agreement. If the Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent such
corresponding amount, such payment shall not relieve such Lender of any
obligation it may have hereunder to the Borrower.
(d) The failure of any Lender to make on the date specified a Term
Loan or any payment required by it (such Lender being a "Non-Funding Lender"),
shall not relieve any
27
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
other Lender of its obligations to make a Term Loan or payment on such date but
no such other Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding
Lender to make a Term Loan or payment required under this Agreement.
SECTION 2.3 REPAYMENT OF THE TERM LOAN. The Borrower promises to
repay the Term Loan in full on the Maturity Date or earlier if required by the
terms hereof.
SECTION 2.4 EVIDENCE OF DEBT.
(a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice
an account or accounts evidencing Indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender
resulting from each Term Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the
amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to
time under this Agreement.
(b) The Administrative Agent, acting as agent of the Borrower solely
for this purpose and for tax purposes, shall establish and maintain at its
address referred to in Section 8.8 (Notices, Etc.) a record of ownership (the
"Register") in which the Administrative Agent agrees to register by book entry
the Administrative Agent's and each Lender's interest in each Term Loan and in
the right to receive any payments hereunder and any assignment of any such
interest or rights. In addition, the Administrative Agent, acting as agent of
the Borrower solely for this purpose and for tax purposes, shall establish and
maintain accounts in the Register in accordance with its usual practice in which
it shall record (i) the names and addresses of the Lenders, (ii) the Commitments
of each Lender, (iii) the amount of each Term Loan made and the Interest Period
applicable thereto, (iv) the amount of any principal or interest due and
payable, and paid, by the Borrower to, or for the account of, each Lender
hereunder, and (v) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent
hereunder from the Borrower, whether such sum constitutes principal or interest
(and the type of Loan to which it applies), fees, expenses or other amounts due
under the Loan Documents and each Lender's share thereof, if applicable.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Term
Loan (including the Notes evidencing the Term Loan) are registered obligations
and the right, title, and interest of the Lenders and their assignees in and to
such Term Loans shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the
Register. A Note shall only evidence the Lender's or a registered assignee's
right, title and interest in and to the related Term Loan, and in no event is
any such Note to be considered a bearer instrument or obligation. This Section
2.4(b) and Section 8.1 shall be construed so that the Term Loans are at all
times maintained in "registered form" within the meaning of Sections 163(f),
871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related regulations (or any
successor provisions of the Code or such regulations).
(c) The entries made in the Register and in the accounts therein
maintained pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above shall, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the
obligations recorded therein; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender
or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall
not in any manner affect the obligations of the Borrower to repay the Term Loan
in accordance with the terms hereof. In addition, the Loan Parties, the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is
recorded in the Register as a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement.
Information contained in the Register with respect to any Lender shall be
available for inspection by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or such
Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior
notice.
28
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the
event that any Lender requests that the Borrower execute and deliver a
promissory note or notes payable to such Lender in order to evidence the
Indebtedness owing to such Lender by the Borrower hereunder, the Borrower shall
promptly execute and deliver one or more Notes to such Lender evidencing any
Term Loan of such Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit B (Form of Note).
SECTION 2.5 OPTIONAL PREPAYMENTS. The Borrower may not, at any time
prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date, prepay the Term Loan in
whole or in part. At any time on or after the second anniversary of the Closing
Date, the Borrower may, upon at least three Business Days' prior notice to the
Administrative Agent, stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount
of the prepayment, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan in
whole or in part at any time; provided, however, that (i) the Borrower shall
also pay to each Lender on the date of such prepayment a fee equal to the
Applicable Prepayment Premium (if any) with respect to such prepayment, (ii) if
any such prepayment is made by the Borrower other than on the last day of an
Interest Period, the Borrower shall also pay to each Lender on the date of such
prepayment any amount owing to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(e) (Breakage
Costs) and (iii) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate amount not
less than $1,000,000 or integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Upon
the Borrower giving such notice of prepayment, the principal amount of the Term
Loan specified therein to be prepaid shall become due and payable on the date
specified therein for such prepayment. The Borrower shall have no right to
prepay the principal amount of any Term Loan other than as provided in this
Section 2.5. For the purposes of this Section 2.5, the terms "prepay" and
"prepayment" include any repayment of the Term Loan that results from any
refinancing or replacement of the Term Loan in whole or in part.
SECTION 2.6 MANDATORY PREPAYMENTS.
(a) The Borrower shall apply, with respect to any Asset Sale:
(I) any Excess Proceeds referred to in Section 5.8(c) (Asset Sales)
which in aggregate exceed $10,000,000, in prepayment of the Term Loan at par
(without any premium); provided, however that (i) the amount of such proposed
prepayment shall be reduced to the extent necessary to permit the Borrower to
make a pro rata offer to purchase other Indebtedness of the Borrower which is
pari passu with the Term Loan, pursuant to the terms of such other Indebtedness
(including any Indenture) to the extent required thereby, (ii) the Borrower
shall notify the Administrative Agent within five days of each date on which the
aggregate amount of such Excess Proceeds in aggregate exceed $10,000,000 and the
amount of such proposed prepayment, and (iii) at the expiration of twenty
Business Days following its receipt of such notification, the Administrative
Agent shall notify the Borrower of the required amount of such prepayment (as
reduced by any portion thereof which has been rejected by Declining Lenders
pursuant to clause (c) below) and the Borrower shall, within five Business Days
thereafter, apply such amount in prepayment of the Term Loan in accordance with
clause (c) below; and
(II) any Net Proceeds of Asset Sales referred to in Section
5.8(c)(i) (Asset Sales) that are also required, pursuant to the terms of any
Permitted Bank Debt that is secured by the Collateral by a Lien having the same
or junior priority to the Lien securing the Term Loan, to be applied in a
mandatory prepayment of such Permitted Bank Debt, such prepayment of the Term
Loan to be in an amount that is pro rata to the amount such mandatory prepayment
of Permitted Bank Debt; provided, however, that the Borrower shall notify the
Administrative Agent within five days of its receipt of such Net Proceeds
required to be applied in mandatory prepayment of
29
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
such Permitted Bank Debt and the amount of the proposed pro rata prepayment of
the Term Loan and (ii) at the expiration of twenty Business Days following its
receipt of such notification, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower
of the required amount of such prepayment (as reduced by any portion thereof
which has been rejected by Declining Lenders pursuant to clause (c) below) and
the Borrower shall, within five Business Days thereafter, apply such amount in
prepayment of the Term Loan in accordance with clause (c) below
(b) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Borrower shall
within thirty days of such occurrence notify the Administrative Agent thereof
and prepay the Term Loan not later than thirty Business Days following such
notification; provided, however that (i) at the expiration of such thirty
Business Day period, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of the
required amount of such prepayment (as reduced by any portion thereof which has
been rejected by Declining Lenders pursuant to clause (c) below) and the
Borrower shall immediately prepay the Term Loan in such amount in accordance
with clause (c) below and (ii) the Borrower shall also pay, on the date of such
prepayment, to each Lender receiving such prepayment a fee equal to 1.00% of the
principal amount of the Term Loan so prepaid to such Lender.
(c) With respect to any proposed mandatory prepayment of the Term
Loan pursuant to clauses (a) or (b) above, any Lender may, at its option, elect
not to accept such prepayment (any Lender making such election being a
"Declining Lender") as follows: each Declining Lender shall give written notice
thereof to the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. New York City time
on the date which is two Business Days prior to the date on which the
Administrative Agent is required to notify the Borrower of the amount of the
applicable prepayment pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above. On the date of
prepayment, an amount equal to that portion of the Term Loan then to be prepaid
(less the amount thereof that would otherwise be payable to Declining Lenders)
shall be paid to the Lenders that are not Declining Lenders. In the event that
the Administrative Agent has not, with respect to any mandatory prepayment,
received a notice from a Lender in accordance with this clause (c), such Lender
shall be deemed to have waived its rights under this clause (c) to decline
receipt thereof. If any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.6 is made by the
Borrower other than on the last day of an Interest Period, the Borrower shall
also pay to each Lender (other than any Declining Lender) on the date of such
prepayment any amount owing to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(e) (Breakage
Costs).
SECTION 2.7 INTEREST.
(a) Rate of Interest. The Term Loan and the outstanding principal
amount of all other Obligations shall bear interest, in the case of the Term
Loan, on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the Closing Date and, in the
case of such other principal Obligations, from the date such other Obligations
are due and payable until, in all cases, paid in full, except as otherwise
provided in clause (c) below, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) in the
case of the Term Loan, the Eurodollar Rate determined for the applicable
Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin and (ii) in the case of (x) the Term
Loan to the extent required by Section 2.10 (Special Provisions Governing
Eurodollar Rate Loans) and (y) each other principal Obligation, the Base Rate in
effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin.
(b) Interest Payments. (i) Interest accrued on each Eurodollar Rate
Loan shall be payable in arrears (A) on the last day of each Interest Period
applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loan, (B) upon the payment or prepayment
thereof in full or in part and (C) if not previously paid in full, at maturity
(whether by acceleration or otherwise) of such Eurodollar
30
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
Rate Loan and (ii) interest accrued on the amount of all other principal
Obligations shall be payable on demand from and after the time such principal
Obligation becomes due and payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise).
(c) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest
specified in clause (a) above or elsewhere herein, effective immediately upon
the occurrence of an Event of Default and for as long thereafter as such Event
of Default shall be continuing, the principal balance of the Term Loan, and the
amount of all other Obligations then due and payable, shall bear interest at a
rate that is two percent per annum in excess of the rate of interest applicable
to the Term Loan or such other Obligations, as applicable, from time to time.
Such interest shall be payable on the date that would otherwise be applicable to
such interest pursuant to clause (b) above or otherwise on demand.
SECTION 2.8 FEES.
The Borrower has agreed to pay to the Administrative Agent and the
Lead Arranger additional fees, the amount and dates of payment of which are
embodied in the Fee Letter.
SECTION 2.9 PAYMENTS AND COMPUTATIONS.
(a) The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder (including fees
and expenses) not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the day when due, in
Dollars to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 8.8
(Notices, Etc.) in immediately available funds without set-off or counterclaim.
The Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter cause to be distributed
immediately available funds relating to the payment of principal, interest or
fees to the Lenders, in accordance with the application of payments set forth in
clause (e) or (f) below, as applicable, for the account of their respective
Lending Offices; provided, however, that amounts payable pursuant to Section
2.11 (Capital Adequacy), Section 2.12 (Taxes) or Section 2.10(c) or (d) (Special
Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans) shall be paid only to the affected
Lender or Lenders. Payments received by the Administrative Agent after 11:00
a.m. (New York time) shall be deemed to be received on the next Business Day.
(b) All computations of interest and of fees shall be made by the
Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the
actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day)
occurring in the period for which such interest and fees are payable. Each
determination by the Administrative Agent of a rate of interest hereunder shall
be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(c) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a
day other than a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended
to the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such
case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case
may be; provided, however, that if such extension would cause payment of
interest on or principal of any Eurodollar Rate Loan to be made in the next
calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business
Day.
(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from
the Borrower to the Lenders prior to the date on which any payment is due
hereunder that the
31
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume
that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on
such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption,
cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the
amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent that the Borrower shall not
have made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall
repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to
such Lender together with interest thereon (at the Federal Funds Rate for the
first Business Day and thereafter, at the rate applicable to Eurodollar Rate
Loans) for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender
until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent.
(e) Except for payments and other amounts received by the
Administrative Agent and applied in accordance with the provisions of clause (f)
below (or required to be applied in accordance with Section 2.6 (Mandatory
Prepayments)), all payments and any other amounts received by the Administrative
Agent from or for the benefit of the Borrower shall be applied as follows:
first, to pay principal of, and interest on, any portion of the Term Loan the
Administrative Agent may have advanced pursuant to the express provisions of
this Agreement on behalf of any Lender, for which the Administrative Agent has
not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower, second, to pay all
other Obligations then due and payable and third, as the Borrower so designates.
Payments in respect of the Term Loan received by the Administrative Agent shall
be distributed to each Lender in accordance with such Lender's Ratable Portion;
and all payments of fees and all other payments in respect of any other
Obligation shall be allocated among such of the Lenders as are entitled thereto
and, for such payments allocated to the Lenders, in proportion to their
respective Ratable Portions.
(f) The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the
application of any and all payments in respect of the Obligations and any
proceeds of Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default and agrees that, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.6
(Mandatory Prepayments) and clause (e) above, but subject to the provisions of
the Intercreditor Agreement, the Administrative Agent may, and, upon either (A)
the written direction of the Requisite Lenders or (B) the acceleration of the
Obligations pursuant to Section 6.2 (Remedies), shall apply all such payments
and all proceeds of Collateral in the following order: (i) first, to pay
interest on and then principal of any portion of the Term Loan that the
Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender for which the
Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the
Borrower; (ii) second, to pay Secured Obligations in respect of any expense
reimbursements or indemnities then due to the Administrative Agent; (iii) third,
to pay Secured Obligations in respect of any expense reimbursements or
indemnities then due to the Lenders; (iv) fourth, to pay Secured Obligations in
respect of any fees then due to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders; (v)
fifth, to pay interest then due and payable in respect of the Term Loan; (vi)
sixth, to pay or prepay principal amounts on the Term Loan ratably to the
aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans; and (vii) seventh, to the ratable
payment of all other Secured Obligations; provided, however, that if sufficient
funds are not available to fund all payments to be made in respect of any
Secured Obligation described in any of clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi)
and (vii) above, the available funds being applied with respect to any such
Secured Obligation (unless otherwise specified in such clause) shall be
allocated to the payment of such Secured Obligation ratably, based on the
proportion of the Administrative Agent's and each Lender's interest in the
aggregate outstanding Secured Obligations described in such clauses. The order
of priority set forth in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii)
above may at any time and from time to time be
32
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
changed by the agreement of the Requisite Lenders without necessity of notice to
or consent of or approval by the Borrower, any Secured Party that is not a
Lender or by any other Person that is not a Lender. The order of priority set
forth in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), and (iv) above may be changed only with the
prior written consent of the Administrative Agent in addition to that of the
Requisite Lenders.
SECTION 2.10 SPECIAL PROVISIONS GOVERNING EURODOLLAR RATE LOANS.
(a) Determination of Interest Rate. The Eurodollar Rate for each
Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be determined by the
Administrative Agent pursuant to the procedures set forth in the definition of
"Eurodollar Rate." The Administrative Agent's determination shall be conclusive
and binding absent manifest error.
(b) Interest Rate Unascertainable, Inadequate or Unfair. In the
event that (i) the Administrative Agent determines that adequate and fair means
do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rates by reference to
which the Eurodollar Rate then being determined is to be fixed or (ii) the
Requisite Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for
any Interest Period will not adequately reflect the cost to the Lenders of
making or maintaining such Term Loans for such Interest Period (provided, that,
such notification pursuant to this clause (b)(ii) shall be supported by such
information as the Administrative Agent or the Borrower may reasonably request,
before such notification shall become effective pursuant to this clause (b)),
the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders,
whereupon each Eurodollar Loan shall automatically, on the last day of the
current Interest Period for such Loan, convert into a Base Rate Loan and the
obligations of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended
until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that the Requisite
Lenders have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer
exist.
(c) Increased Costs. If at any time any Lender determines that the
introduction of, or any change in or in the interpretation of, any law, treaty
or governmental rule, regulation or order (other than any change by way of (i)
imposition of or change in the rate of any Excluded Tax or (ii) imposition or
increase of reserve requirements included in determining the Eurodollar Rate) or
the compliance by such Lender with any guideline, request or directive from any
central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of
law), shall have the effect of increasing the cost to such Lender of agreeing to
make or making, funding or maintaining the Term Loan as a Eurodollar Rate Loan,
then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a
copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative
Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate
such Lender for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such
increased cost, submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such
Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(d) Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, if any Lender determines that the introduction of, or any change in
or in the interpretation of, any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or
order after the date of this Agreement shall make it unlawful, or any central
bank or other Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any
Lender or its Lending Office to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or to continue to
fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof and demand
therefor by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i)
the obligation of such Lender to make or to continue Eurodollar Rate Loans shall
be suspended, and (ii) if the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans are then
outstanding, then each such Term Loan shall immediately be converted into a Base
Rate
33
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
Loan. If, at any time after a Lender gives notice under this clause (d), such
Lender determines that it may lawfully make Eurodollar Rate Loans, such Lender
shall promptly give notice of that determination to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit the
notice to each other Lender. Such Lender's obligation, if any, to make
Eurodollar Rate Loans shall thereupon be restored.
(e) Breakage Costs. In addition to all amounts required to be paid
by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.7 (Interest), the Borrower shall
compensate each Lender, upon demand, for all losses, expenses and liabilities
(including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or
reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or
maintain such Lender's Eurodollar Rate Loans to the Borrower but excluding any
loss of the Applicable Margin on the Term Loan) that such Lender may sustain (i)
if for any reason (other than solely by reason of such Lender being a
Non-Funding Lender) a proposed Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans does not occur
on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing given by the Borrower,
(ii) if for any reason any Eurodollar Rate Loan is prepaid (including
mandatorily pursuant to Section 2.6 (Mandatory Prepayments)) on a date that is
not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, (iii) as a consequence of a
required conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan as a result of
any of the events indicated in clause (d) above or (iv) as a consequence of any
failure by the Borrower to repay Eurodollar Rate Loans when required by the
terms hereof. The Lender making demand for such compensation shall deliver to
the Borrower concurrently with such demand a written statement as to such
losses, expenses and liabilities, and this statement shall be conclusive as to
the amount of compensation due to such Lender absent manifest error.
SECTION 2.11 CAPITAL ADEQUACY. If at any time any Lender determines
that (a) the adoption of, or any change in or in the interpretation of, any law,
treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order after the date of this
Agreement regarding capital adequacy, (b) compliance with any such law, treaty,
rule, regulation or order or (c) compliance with any guideline or request or
directive from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not
having the force of law) shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on
such Lender's (or any corporation controlling such Lender's) capital as a
consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender
or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change,
compliance or interpretation, then, upon demand from time to time by such Lender
(with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay
to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as
specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such
Lender for such reduction. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender shall be conclusive and
binding for all purposes absent manifest error.
SECTION 2.12 TAXES.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.12, any and all
payments by any Loan Party under each Loan Document shall be made free and clear
of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies,
imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect
thereto, excluding in the case of each Lender and the Administrative Agent
(i)(A) taxes measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, and
similar taxes imposed, in each case, by the jurisdiction (or any political
subdivision thereof) under the laws of which such Lender or the Administrative
Agent (as the case may be) is organized and (B) any United States withholding
taxes payable with respect to payments under the Loan Documents under laws
(including any statute, treaty or regulation) in effect on the
34
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
Closing Date (or, in the case of (x) an Eligible Assignee, the date of the
Assignment and Acceptance and (y) a successor Administrative Agent, the date of
the appointment of such Administrative Agent) applicable to such Lender or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, but not excluding any United States
withholding taxes payable as a result of any change in such laws occurring after
the Closing Date (or the date of such Assignment and Acceptance or the date of
such appointment of such Administrative Agent) and (ii) taxes measured by its
net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it and similar taxes imposed, in each
case, as a result of a present or former connection (other than by reason of
this Agreement) between such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may
be) and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any
taxing authority thereof or therein (all such taxes referred to in clausaes (i)
and (ii) being hereafter referred to as "Excluded Taxes", and such non-Excluded
Taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being
hereinafter referred to as "Taxes"). If any Taxes shall be required by law to be
deducted from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to any
Lender or the Administrative Agent, other than as a result of any Non U.S.
Lender's failure to provide the documents specified in Section 2.12(f) (w) the
sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that, after making all
required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable
under this Section 2.12, such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case
may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such
deductions been made, (x) the relevant Loan Party shall make such deductions,
(y) the relevant Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant
taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law and (z)
the relevant Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent evidence of
such payment.
(b) In addition, each Loan Party agrees to pay any present or future
stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or
similar levies of the United States or any political subdivision thereof or any
applicable foreign jurisdiction, and all liabilities with respect thereto, in
each case arising from any payment made under any Loan Document or from the
execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan
Document (collectively, "Other Taxes").
(c) Each Loan Party shall, jointly and severally, indemnify each
Lender and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes
(including any Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts
payable under this Section 2.12) paid by such Lender or the Administrative Agent
(as the case may be) and any liability (including for penalties, interest and
expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes
or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be
made within 30 days from the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as
the case may be) makes written demand therefor.
(d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other
Taxes by any Loan Party, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent,
at its address referred to in Section 8.8 (Notices, Etc.), the original or a

obligations of such Loan Party contained in this Section 2.12 shall survive the
payment in full of the Obligations.
(f) (i) Each Non-U.S. Lender that is entitled at such time to an
exemption from United States withholding tax, or that is subject to such tax at
a reduced rate under an
35
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
applicable tax treaty, shall (v) on or prior to the Closing Date if such
Non-U.S. Lender is a signatory hereto, (w) otherwise, on or prior to the date of
the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a
Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder, (x) on or prior to the date on
which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (y) after the
occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or
certification previously delivered by it to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent, and (z) from time to time if requested by the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, provide the Administrative Agent and the Borrower with two
completed originals of each of the following, as applicable: (i) Form W-8ECI
(claiming exemption from U.S. withholding tax because the income is effectively
connected with a U.S. trade or business) or any successor form; (ii) Form W-8BEN
(claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. withholding tax under an

or document prescribed by the IRS certifying as to such Non-U.S. Lender's
entitlement to such exemption from United States withholding tax or reduced rate

Documents. Unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent have received forms
or other documents satisfactory to them indicating that payments under any Loan
Document to or for a Non-U.S. Lender are not subject to United States
withholding tax or are subject to such tax at a rate reduced by an applicable
tax treaty, the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent shall withhold amounts
required to be withheld by applicable Requirements of Law from such payments at
the applicable statutory rate.
(g) Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to
this Section 2.12 shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal
policies and Requirements of Law) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending
Office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the
amount of, any such additional amounts that would be payable or may thereafter
accrue and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender, be otherwise
disadvantageous to such Lender.

whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or
usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may
affect the covenants or the performance of this Agreement or any other Loan

Payment:
(A) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof;
(B) the Borrower would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and
after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had

Indebtedness or Disqualified Stock into Equity Interests (other than
Disqualified Stock) of the Borrower, less, in each case, any cash
distributed by the Borrower upon such conversion or exchange, plus (v) to
the extent that any Investment in any Unrestricted Subsidiary that was
made after the Closing Date is sold for cash or otherwise liquidated,
repaid for cash or such Unrestricted Subsidiary is converted into a

the fair market value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or
securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Borrower or such
Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment.
The fair market value of any assets or securities that are required to be valued
by this covenant with a fair market value in excess of $1,000,000 but less than

shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Officers' Certificate stating that
such Restricted Payment is permitted and setting forth the basis upon which the

any fairness opinion or appraisal required by this Agreement.
SECTION 5.6 DIVIDEND AND OTHER PAYMENT RESTRICTIONS AFFECTING
SUBSIDIARIES. The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become
effective any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted

or restrictions existing under or by reasons of (i) Existing Indebtedness as in
effect on the date hereof and any amendments, modifications, restatements,
renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings
thereof, provided that such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals,
increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are no more
restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment
restrictions than those contained in such Existing Indebtedness, as in effect on
the date hereof, (ii) this Agreement, (iii) applicable law, (iv) any instrument
governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person acquired by the Borrower or
any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as in effect at the time of such acquisition

applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than
the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired, provided that,
in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of
this Agreement to be incurred, (v) customary non-assignment provisions in
leases, licenses and other contracts entered into in the ordinary course of

48
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.

SECTION 5.7 INCURRENCE OF INDEBTEDNESS AND ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED
STOCK.
(a) The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue,
assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable,
contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, "incur") any
Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and the Borrower will not issue any
Disqualified Stock and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to
issue any shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that the Borrower and
any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor may incur Indebtedness
(including Acquired Debt), and the Borrower may issue Disqualified Stock, and
any Restricted Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor may issue preferred
stock, if the Consolidated Interest Expense Coverage Ratio for the Borrower's
most recently ended four full fiscal quarters (the "Reference Period") for which
internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on
which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock or
preferred stock is issued would have been at least 2.0 to 1, determined on a pro
forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom),
as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred, or the Disqualified Stock
or preferred stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such
four-quarter period.
(b) Section 5.7(a) above will not prohibit the incurrence of any of
the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, "Permitted Debt"):
(i) the incurrence by the Borrower and any Restricted
Subsidiary of any Permitted Bank Debt; provided that the aggregate
principal amount of all Permitted Bank Debt and the Obligations at any one
time outstanding shall not exceed the greater of (x) $100,000,000 plus 85%
of the consolidated accounts receivable of the Borrower plus 50% of the
consolidated inventory of the Borrower and (y) the product of 2.25 times
the Consolidated Cash Flow for the Borrower's most recently ended four
full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available
immediately preceding the date on which such Permitted Bank Debt is
incurred;
(ii) the incurrence by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries of
Existing Indebtedness;
(iii) the incurrence by the Borrower and each Subsidiary
Guarantor of the Obligations;
(iv) the incurrence by the Borrower or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of (a) Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing all
or any part of the purchase price or cost of construction or improvement
of property, plant or equipment used in the business of the Borrower or
any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and (b) Capital Lease Obligations, in
an aggregate amount at any time outstanding, including all
49
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance or
replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (iv), not to
exceed the greater of $75,000,000 and 10% of the Borrower's Consolidated
Net Assets;
(v) the incurrence by the Borrower or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the
net proceeds of which are used to refund, refinance or replace,
Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was permitted by
this Agreement to be incurred under Section 5.7(a) or clauses (ii), (v),
(xiii) or (xiv) of this Section 5.7(b);
(vi) the incurrence by the Borrower or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Borrower
and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that: (a) if
the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor is the obligor on such
Indebtedness and such Indebtedness is in favor of a Restricted Subsidiary
other than a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary, such Indebtedness must be
expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of all
Obligations of the Borrower and the obligations of such Subsidiary
Guarantor pursuant to the Subsidiary Guaranty, as applicable, and (b)(I)
any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in
any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the Borrower or a
Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary thereof and (II) any sale or other
transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either the
Borrower or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary thereof; shall be deemed,
in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the
Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not
permitted by this clause (vi);
(vii) the incurrence by the Borrower or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations that are incurred for the purpose of
fixing or hedging interest rate, commodity or currency risk in the
ordinary course of business for bona fide hedging purposes; provided that
the notional principal amount of any such Hedging Obligation with respect
to interest rates does not exceed the amount of Indebtedness or other
liability to which such Hedging Obligation relates;
(viii) the Guarantee by the Borrower or any of the Subsidiary
Guarantors or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower that was permitted
to be incurred by another provision of this Section 5.7;
(ix) the incurrence by the Borrower's Unrestricted
Subsidiaries of Non-Recourse Debt; provided, however, that if any such
Indebtedness ceases to be Non-Recourse Debt of an Unrestricted Subsidiary,
such event shall be deemed to constitute an incurrence of Indebtedness by
a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower that was not permitted by this
clause (ix);
(x) the incurrence of Indebtedness solely in respect of
performance, surety and similar bonds or completion or performance
Guarantees, to the extent that such incurrence does not result in the
incurrence of any obligation for the payment of borrowed money to others;
(xi) the incurrence of Indebtedness arising from the
agreements of the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower
providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price or similar
obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in
50
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
connection with the disposition of any business, assets or a Subsidiary;
provided, however, that: (a) such Indebtedness is not reflected as a
liability on the balance sheet of the Borrower or any Restricted
Subsidiary of the Borrower, and (b) the maximum assumable liability in
respect of all such Indebtedness shall at no time exceed the gross
proceeds, including non-cash proceeds (the fair market value of such
non-cash proceeds being measured at the time received and without giving
effect to any subsequent changes in value), actually received by the
Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such
disposition;
(xii) the accrual of interest, accretion or amortization of
original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in
the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, and the payment
of dividends on Disqualified Stock in the form of additional shares of the
same class of Disqualified Stock; provided, in each such case, that the
amount thereof is included in Consolidated Interest Expense of the
Borrower as accrued;
(xiii) the incurrence of Indebtedness by Foreign Subsidiaries
in an amount not to exceed 10% of the Total Tangible Assets of the Foreign
Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; and
(xiv) the incurrence by the Borrower or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount
(or accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding, including all
Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance or
replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (xiv), not to
exceed $50,000,000.
(c) Indebtedness or preferred stock of any Person which is
outstanding at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of the
Borrower (including upon designation of any Subsidiary or other Person as a
Restricted Subsidiary) or is merged with or into or consolidated with the
Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower shall be deemed to have been
incurred at the time such Person becomes such a Restricted Subsidiary of the
Borrower or is merged with or into or consolidated with the Borrower or a
Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower, as applicable.
(d) The Borrower will not incur any Indebtedness (including
Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any
other Indebtedness of the Borrower unless such Indebtedness is also
contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Term Loan on substantially
identical terms; provided, however, that no Indebtedness of the Borrower shall
be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other
Indebtedness of the Borrower solely by virtue of any Liens, Guarantees, maturity
of payments or structural seniority.
(e) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 5.7, in
the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than
one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (i) through (xiv)
above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 5.7(a), the Borrower
shall, in its sole discretion, classify or reclassify such item of Indebtedness
(or any part thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 5.7 and such
item of Indebtedness shall be treated as having been incurred pursuant to only
one of such clauses or pursuant to Section 5.7(a). For purposes of determining
any particular amount of Indebtedness under this Section 5.7, Guarantees, Liens
or obligations in support of letters of
51
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
credit supporting Indebtedness shall not be included to the extent such letters
of credit are included in the amount of such Indebtedness. Any increase in the
amount of any Indebtedness solely by reason of currency fluctuations shall not
be considered an incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this covenant.
Accrual of interest and the payment of interest in the form of additional
Indebtedness shall not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness for
purposes of this Section 5.7.
SECTION 5.8 ASSET SALES.
(a) The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to (i) sell, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of any
assets or rights (including by way of a sale-and-leaseback) other than sales of
inventory in the ordinary course of business (provided, that the sale, lease,
conveyance or other distribution of all or substantially all of the assets of
the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, shall be
governed by the provisions of Sections 2.6(b) (Mandatory Prepayments) and 5.16
(Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Assets) and not by Section 5.8(c)), or (ii)
with respect to the Borrower, sell Equity Interests in any of its Subsidiaries,
or (iii) with respect to the Borrower's Restricted Subsidiaries, issue Equity
Interests (each of the foregoing, an "Asset Sale"), unless (x) the Borrower (or
the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the
time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value (evidenced by a
resolution of the Board of Directors set forth in an Officers' Certificate
delivered to the Administrative Agent) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed
of and (y) at least 75% of the consideration received therefor by the Borrower
or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash or other Qualified
Proceeds.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following shall not be deemed
to be Asset Sales: (i) any single transaction or series of related transactions
that (a) involves assets having a fair market value of less than $2,000,000 or
(b) results in net proceeds to the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries of
less than $2,000,000, (ii) a transfer of assets between or among the Borrower
and any Restricted Subsidiary, (iii) an issuance of Equity Interests by a
Restricted Subsidiary to the Borrower or to another Wholly Owned Restricted
Subsidiary, (iv) the sale, lease, conveyance or other disposition of any
Receivable Program Assets by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in
connection with a Receivables Program, (v) the sale, lease, conveyance or other
disposition of any inventory, receivables or other current assets by the
Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of
business, (vi) the granting of a Permitted Lien, (vii) the licensing by the
Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of intellectual property in the ordinary
course of business or on commercially reasonable terms, (viii) the sale, lease,
conveyance or other disposition of obsolete or worn out equipment or equipment
no longer useful in the Borrower's business, and (ix) the making or liquidating
of any Restricted Payment or Permitted Investment that is permitted by Section
5.5 (Restricted Payments).
(c) Within 365 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from any
Asset Sale, the Borrower (or such Restricted Subsidiary) may apply such Net
Proceeds from such Asset Sale, at its option, either (i) to repay Permitted Bank
Debt or, in accordance with Section 2.5 (Optional Prepayments), the Term Loan,
and if such Permitted Bank Debt is revolving debt, to effect a corresponding
commitment reduction thereunder; provided, however, that in the event that any
Permitted Bank Debt is secured by the Collateral by a Lien having the same or
junior priority to the Lien securing the Term Loan, then to the extent that such
Permitted Bank Debt requires a mandatory prepayment thereof with any such Net
Proceeds from Assets Sales, then the Borrower shall apply such Net Proceeds to
the extent required by Section 2.6(a)(II) (Mandatory Prepayments), (ii) to
acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or a majority of the Voting
52
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
Stock of, another Permitted Business, (iii) to make a capital expenditure, or
(iv) to acquire any other long-term assets that are used or useful in a
Permitted Business. Pending the final application of any such Net Proceeds, the
Borrower (or such Restricted Subsidiary) may temporarily reduce revolving credit
borrowings or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner that is not
prohibited by this Agreement. Any Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale that are not
finally applied or invested as provided in the first sentence of this paragraph
will be deemed to constitute "Excess Proceeds." The Borrower shall apply such
Excess Proceeds to the extent required by Section 2.6(a)(I) (Mandatory
Prepayments), and following such application, the amount of Excess Proceeds will
be deemed to be reset at zero.
SECTION 5.9 TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
(a) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise
dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or
assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract,
agreement, understanding, loan, advance or Guarantee with, or for the benefit
of, any Affiliate (each, an "Affiliate Transaction"), unless (A) such Affiliate
Transaction (when viewed together with related Affiliate Transactions, if any)
is on terms that are no less favorable to the Borrower or the relevant
Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable
transaction by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated
Person, and (B) the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent (i) with
respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions
involving aggregate consideration in excess of $10,000,000, a resolution of the
Board of Directors set forth in an Officers' Certificate certifying that such
Affiliate Transaction complies with this covenant and that such Affiliate
Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the
Board of Directors (of which there must be at least one), and (ii) with respect
to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions
involving aggregate consideration in excess of $25,000,000, an opinion as to the
fairness to the Lenders of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of
view issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national
standing; provided that (x) the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries may
enter into Affiliate Transactions pursuant to the Supply Agreement, the Foundry
Agreement, the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Transition Services Agreement and
the Intellectual Property Rights Licensing Agreement, and may amend, modify and
supplement such agreements from time to time, so long as the Borrower shall have
determined that any such amendment, modification or supplement will not have a
material adverse economic effect on the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as
a whole, and (y) the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries may only enter
into transactions pursuant to the Supply Agreement, the Foundry Agreement, the
Asset Purchase Agreement, the Transition Services Agreement and the Intellectual
Property Rights Licensing Agreement, and amend, modify and supplement such
agreements from time to time, in circumstances in which clause (x) is not
applicable, if a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors
(of which there must be at least one) shall have approved such transaction,
amendment, modification or supplement; provided, further, that in the case of
both clauses (x) and (y), the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent
within 30 days of such transaction, amendment, modification or supplement an
Officers' Certificate (1) describing the transaction, amendment, modification or
supplement approved, (2) in the case of transactions, amendments, modifications
and supplements to which clause (x) is applicable, setting forth the
determination of the Borrower required pursuant to clause (x), and (3) in the
case of transactions, amendments, modifications and supplements to which clause

that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this covenant.
53
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
(b) The following items shall not be deemed to be Affiliate
Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of Section
5.9(a):
(i) any employment agreement or arrangement entered into by the
Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any employee benefit
plan available to employees of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries
generally, in each case in the ordinary course of business and consistent
with the past practice of the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary;
(ii) Affiliate Transactions between or among the Borrower and/or its
Restricted Subsidiaries;
(iii) payment of reasonable directors fees to Persons who are not
otherwise Affiliates of the Borrower and indemnity provided on behalf of
officers, directors and employees of the Borrower or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the
Borrower;
(iv) any Affiliate Transactions pursuant to which the Borrower makes
short-term advances or otherwise makes short-term loans to Anam
Semiconductor, Inc., which advances or loans are to be repaid by Anam
Semiconductor, Inc. (i) within three months from the date of such advance
or loan and (ii) by offsets by the Borrower of amounts payable by the
Borrower to Anam Semiconductor, Inc. pursuant to the Supply Agreement, if
a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors (of
which there must be at least one) shall have approved such transaction,
amendment, modification or supplement; provided that the total amount of
such advances and loans outstanding at any one time shall not exceed
$50,000,000; and
(v) any Restricted Payments that are permitted by Section 5.5

and an Affiliate that is approved by a majority of the disinterested members of
the Board of Directors (of which there must be at least one to utilize this
method of approval) and evidenced by a board resolution or for which a fairness
opinion has been issued shall be deemed to be on terms that are no less
favorable to the Borrower or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that
would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Borrower or such
Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person and thus shall be permitted under
this Section 5.9.
SECTION 5.10 LIENS. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any
of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume
or suffer to exist any Lien of any kind securing Indebtedness on any asset now
owned or hereafter acquired, other than Permitted Liens, provided, however, that
any such Lien on the Collateral securing Permitted Bank Debt shall be subject to
an intercreditor agreement which contains substantially similar terms to Exhibit
G (Form of Intercreditor Agreement), or otherwise is in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent
and the Collateral Agent agree, and are hereby authorized by each Lender,
following a request from the Borrower in connection with the incurrence of any
Permitted Bank Debt, to enter into one or more Intercreditor Agreements from
time to time which meet the requirements of this Section 5.10; provided,
however, that the Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent such legal
54
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT

opinions and other documentation (each in form and substance satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent) in connection therewith as the Administrative Agent may
reasonably request.
SECTION 5.11 CORPORATE EXISTENCE. Subject to Section 5.16 (Merger,
Consolidation, or Sale of Assets), the Borrower shall do or cause to be done all
things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect (i) its corporate
existence, and the corporate, partnership or other existence of each of its
Subsidiaries, in accordance with the respective organizational documents (as the
same may be amended from time to time) of the Borrower or any such Subsidiary
and (ii) the rights (charter and statutory), licenses and franchises of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be
required to preserve any such right, license or franchise, or the corporate,
partnership or other existence of any of its Subsidiaries, if the Board of
Directors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable
in the conduct of the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a
whole, and that the loss thereof is not adverse in any material respect to the
Lenders.
SECTION 5.12 AMENDMENT OF SUBORDINATION PROVISIONS. The Borrower
will not amend, modify or alter the terms of the Senior Subordinated Notes
Indenture or any other Subordinated Debt in any way that will (i) increase the

Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower to any Person (other than the Borrower or
a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower), unless (i) such transfer,
conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition is of all the Equity Interests in
such Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary or immediately following such transfer,
conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition, the Wholly Owned Restricted
Subsidiary is a Restricted Subsidiary and (ii) the cash Net Proceeds from such
transfer, conveyance, sale, lease or other disposition are applied in accordance
with Section 5.8 (Asset Sales), and (b) shall not permit any Wholly Owned
Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower to issue any of its Equity Interests
(other than, if necessary, shares of its Capital Stock constituting directors'
qualifying shares) to any Person other than to the Borrower or a Wholly Owned
Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower unless immediately following such issuance
the Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary is a Restricted Subsidiary.
SECTION 5.14 DESIGNATION OF RESTRICTED AND UNRESTRICTED
SUBSIDIARIES. The Board of Directors of the Borrower may designate any
Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary so long as such
designation would not cause a Default or Event of Default hereunder. If a
Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all
outstanding Investments owned by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries in
the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the
time of such designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted
Payments under Section 5.5(a) (Restricted Payments) or Permitted Investments, as
applicable. All such outstanding Investments will be valued at their fair market
value at the time of such designation. That designation will only be permitted
if such Restricted Payment would be permitted at that time and if such
Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted
Subsidiary. The Board of Directors may redesignate any

Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if the redesignation would

Subsidiaries to, enter into any sale and leaseback transaction; provided,
however, that the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary may enter into a sale
and leaseback transaction if (i) the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as
applicable, could have incurred Indebtedness in an amount equal to the
Attributable Debt relating to such sale and leaseback transaction (if the lease
is in the nature of an operating lease, otherwise the amount of Indebtedness)
under the Consolidated Interest Expense Coverage Ratio test in Section 5.7(a)
(Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock), and (ii) the
transfer of assets in that sale and leaseback transaction is permitted by, and
the Borrower applies the proceeds of such transaction in compliance with,
Section 5.8 (Asset Sales).
(b) The restrictions in Section 5.15(a) shall not apply to any sale
and leaseback transaction if (i) the transaction is solely between the Borrower
and any Restricted Subsidiary or between Restricted Subsidiaries, or (ii) the
sale and leaseback transaction is consummated within 180 days after the purchase
of the assets subject to such transaction.

merge with or into another Person (whether or not the Borrower is the surviving

substantially all of its properties or assets, in one or more related
transactions, to another Person, unless (i) the Borrower is the surviving
corporation or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or

(iv) except in the case of the amalgamation, consolidation or merger of the
Borrower with or into a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary or with or into any
Person solely for the purpose of effecting a change in the state of
incorporation of the Borrower, the Borrower or the Person formed by or surviving
any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Borrower) shall, on the date
of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related
financing transactions as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the
applicable four-quarter period, be permitted to incur at least $1.00 of
additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Consolidated Interest Expense Coverage
Ratio test set forth in Section 5.7(a) (Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance
of Preferred Stock.), and (v) the Borrower shall have delivered to the
Administrative Agent an Officers' Certificate stating that such consolidation,
merger, sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition complies
with this Agreement. In addition, the Borrower shall not, directly or
indirectly, lease all or substantially all of its properties or assets, in one

successor corporation formed by such consolidation or into or with which the
Borrower is merged or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease,
conveyance or other disposition is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for
(so that from and after the date of such consolidation, merger, sale, lease,
conveyance or other disposition, the provisions of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents referring to the "Borrower" shall refer instead to the successor
corporation and not to the Borrower), and may exercise every right and power of
the Borrower under this Agreement with the same effect as if such successor
Person had been named as the Borrower herein; provided, however, that the
predecessor Borrower shall not be relieved from the obligation to pay the
principal of and interest on the Term Loan and the other Obligations except in
the case of a sale of all of the Borrower's assets that meets the requirements
of Section 5.16(a) above.

Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor to consolidate with or merge with or into
(whether or not such Subsidiary Guarantor is the surviving Person) another
Person unless (i) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or
merger (if other than a Subsidiary Guarantor or the Borrower) unconditionally

Permitted Bank Debt which is secured by a Lien on the Pledged Foreign
Intercompany Debt, and (ii) each Guarantee of any Pledged Foreign Intercompany
Debt given by the Borrower's Subsidiaries shall at all times remain in full
force and effect (except with respect to any such Subsidiary all the Capital
Stock of which has been disposed of pursuant to an Asset Sale permitted by this
Agreement); provided, however, that with respect to any calculation made
pursuant to clause (i) above, (A) there shall be excluded from such calculation
any Pledged Foreign Intercompany Debt which is owed by a Foreign Subsidiary of
the Borrower that, at the time of such calculation, is not Solvent (provided,
that for the purposes of making such solvency determination with respect to any
such Foreign Subsidiary of the Borrower that is not a Significant Subsidiary,
such Foreign Subsidiary's ordinary course dealings and past practices with its
Affiliates in connection with the conduct of its business shall be taken into
account) or is subject to any bankruptcy or other similar event of the type
described in Sections 6.1(f) or (g)
57

(Events of Default), and (B) the amount of such Pledged Foreign Intercompany

delivered to the Administrative Agent within 90 days following the Closing Date
(or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree), and (ii) in the
event that the Borrower acquires a Foreign Subsidiary following the Closing

expressly provided for by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including
enforcement or collection), the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent
shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall
be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so
acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Requisite
Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders; provided,
however, that the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not be

an indemnification satisfactory to it from the Lenders with respect to such
action or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law. The
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent each agree to give to each Lender
prompt notice of each notice given to it by any Loan Party pursuant to the terms
of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. In performing its functions and
duties hereunder and under the other

other Loan Documents or any other relationship as the agent, fiduciary or
trustee of or for any Lender or holder of any other Obligation. The
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may perform any of its duties
under any Loan Document by or through its agents or employees. The Lead Arranger
shall have no obligations or duties whatsoever in such capacity under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document and shall incur no liability hereunder or
thereunder in such capacity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
in this Agreement, each of the Documentation Agent and the Syndication Agent is

whatsoever under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to any Loan Party or
any Lender and shall have no rights (separate from any rights it may have in the
event that it becomes a Lender pursuant to Section 8.2(Assignments and
Participations)) except as expressly provided in this Agreement.
SECTION 7.2 AGENTS' RELIANCE, ETC. None of the Administrative Agent,
the Collateral Agent, nor any of their respective Affiliates or any of their
respective directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any
action taken or omitted to be taken by it, him, her or them under or in
connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except for its, his,

set forth in Section 8.2(c) (Assignments and Participations), (c) may consult

or any telephone message believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the
proper party or parties.
SECTION 7.3 POSTING OF APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS. Each of
the Lenders and the Borrower agree, and the Borrower shall cause each Subsidiary
Guarantor to agree, that the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may,
but shall not be obligated to, make the Approved Electronic Communications
available to the Lenders by posting such Approved Electronic Communications on
IntraLinks(TM) or a substantially similar electronic
62
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
platform chosen by the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to be their
electronic transmission system (the "Approved Electronic Platform"). Although
the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with
generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by
the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent from time to time (including,
as of the Closing Date, a dual firewall and a User ID/Password Authorization
System) and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a
single-user-per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the
Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders
and the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and the Borrower shall cause each
Subsidiary Guarantor to acknowledge and agree, that the distribution of material
through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are
confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. In
consideration for the convenience and other benefits afforded by such
distribution and for the other consideration provided hereunder, the receipt and
sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each of the Lenders, and the
Borrower hereby approves, and the Borrower shall cause each Subsidiary Guarantor
to approve, distribution of the Approved Electronic Communications through the
Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes, and the Borrower shall
cause each Subsidiary Guarantor to understand and assume, the risks of such
distribution. The Approved Electronic Communications and the Approved Electronic
Platform are provided "as is" and "as available". None of the Administrative
Agent, the Collateral Agent or any of their respective Affiliates or any of
their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors or
representatives (the "Agent Affiliates") warrant the accuracy, adequacy or
completeness of the Approved Electronic Communications and the Approved
Electronic Platform and each expressly disclaims liability for errors or
omissions in the Approved Electronic Communications and the Approved Electronic
Platform. No Warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory (including,
without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular
purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other
code defects) is made by the agent affiliates in connection with the approved
electronic communications or the approved electronic platform. Each of the
Lenders, and the Borrower agree, and the Borrower shall cause each Subsidiary
Guarantor to agree, that the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may,
but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to,
store the Approved Electronic Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform
in accordance with the Administrative Agent's and the Collateral Agent's
generally-applicable document retention procedures and policies.
SECTION 7.4 THE AGENTS AS LENDERS. With respect to its Ratable
Portion, each Agent that is a Lender shall have and may exercise the same rights
and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as
and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender. The terms "Lenders",
"Requisite Lenders" and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly
otherwise indicates, include, without limitation, each Agent in its individual
capacity as a Lender or as one of the Requisite Lenders. Each Agent and each of
its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in
any kind of banking, trust or other business with, any Loan Party as if such
Agent were not acting as Agent.
SECTION 7.5 LENDER CREDIT DECISION. Each Lender acknowledges that it
shall, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender
conduct its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs
of the Borrower and each other Loan Party in connection with the making and
continuance of the Term Loan. Each Lender also acknowledges that it shall,
independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender and based
on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,
63
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under
this Agreement and other Loan Documents.
SECTION 7.6 INDEMNIFICATION. Each Lender agrees to indemnify the
Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each of their respective
Affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents
and advisors (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), from and against
such Lender's aggregate Ratable Portion of any and all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and
disbursements (including fees, expenses and disbursements of financial and legal
advisors) of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by,
or asserted against, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any of
their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors
in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or the
Collateral Agent under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided,
however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent's, the
Collateral Agent's or such Affiliate's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent promptly upon demand for its
ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including fees, expenses and
disbursements of financial and legal advisors) incurred by the Administrative
Agent or the Collateral Agent in connection with the preparation, execution,
delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether
through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in
respect of its rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents, to the extent that the Administrative Agent or the Collateral
Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower or another Loan Party.
SECTION 7.7 SUCCESSOR ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR COLLATERAL AGENT. The
Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving
written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such
resignation, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor
Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable. If no successor
Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall have been so appointed by the
Requisite Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days
after the retiring Agent's giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring
Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent or
Collateral Agent, as applicable, selected from among the Lenders. In either
case, such appointment shall be subject to the prior written approval of the
Borrower (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be
required upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default).
Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor
Administrative Agent or as Collateral Agent by a successor Collateral Agent,
such successor Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights,
powers, privileges and duties of the applicable retiring Agent, and the retiring
Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents. Prior to any retiring Agent's resignation
hereunder as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, the retiring Agent shall
take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Agent
its rights as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, under the
Loan Documents. After such resignation, any retiring Agent shall continue to
have the benefit of this Article VII as to any actions taken or omitted to be
taken by it while it was Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as
applicable, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If no Person has
accepted the appointment as successor Administrative Agent or successor
Collateral Agent as provided above, the Requisite Lenders shall succeed to, and
64
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of, the
applicable retiring Agent effective upon its resignation.
SECTION 7.8 RELEASE OF COLLATERAL AND SUBSIDIARY GUARANTORS. Each of
the Lenders hereby consents to the release and hereby directs the Administrative
Agent and the Collateral Agent to release (or subordinate, if applicable):
(a) any Lien held by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the
Lenders in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement; and
(b) any Lien held by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the
Lenders against any of the following: (i) all of the Collateral and all Loan
Parties, upon termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction in
full of the Term Loan and all other Obligations that the Collateral Agent has
been notified in writing are then due and payable; (ii) any assets that are
subject to an Asset Sale or purchase-money or equivalent Lien; (iii) any part of
the Collateral sold or disposed of by a Loan Party permitted pursuant to a
waiver of or consent to a transaction otherwise prohibited by this Agreement
and, where such Asset Sale, or other permitted sale or disposition is of a
Subsidiary Guarantor (except any such sale or disposition made to the Borrower
or a Subsidiary of the Borrower), each of the Lenders authorizes the
Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to release such Subsidiary
Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty upon the
consummation of such sale or disposition.
Each of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereby direct the
Collateral Agent to execute and deliver or file such termination and partial
release statements and do such other things as are necessary to release Liens to
be released pursuant to this Section 7.8 promptly upon the effectiveness of any
such release.
SECTION 7.9 ACTIONS BY THE COLLATERAL AGENT. The Collateral Agent
shall take, or refrain from taking, any action as directed in writing by the
Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein
or in the Collateral Documents, the Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to
take, or refrain from taking, any action (i) to the extent the Collateral Agent
has received a written advice from its counsel that such action is in conflict
with any applicable law, Collateral Document or order of any Governmental
Authority or (ii) with respect to which the Collateral Agent, in its reasonable
judgment, has not received adequate security or indemnity hereunder or under the
Collateral Documents. Nothing in this Section 7.9 shall impair the right of the
Collateral Agent in its discretion to take or omit to take any action which is
deemed proper by the Collateral Agent under the Collateral Documents and which
it believes in good faith is not inconsistent with any direction of the
Administrative Agent delivered pursuant to this Section 7.9; provided, however,
the Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to take any discretionary
action under the provisions of this Agreement or any other Collateral Document
unless so directed by the Administrative Agent. The Collateral Agent shall be
obliged to perform only such duties as are specifically set forth in this
Agreement or any Collateral Document, and no implied covenants or obligations
shall be read into this Agreement or any Collateral Document against the
Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent shall, upon receipt of any written
direction pursuant to this Section 7.9, exercise the rights and powers vested in
it by any Collateral Document with respect to such direction, and the Collateral
Agent shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted in
accordance with such direction. If the Collateral Agent shall seek directions
from the Administrative Agent or the Lenders with respect to any action under
any Collateral Document, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to take, or
refrain from taking, such action until it shall have received such direction.
The Collateral
65
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
Agent's sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical
preservation of the Collateral in its possession shall be to deal with it in the
same manner as with similar property for its own account. The powers conferred
on the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the Collateral Documents are solely
to protect the Collateral Agent's interest in the Collateral (for itself and for
the benefit of the Secured Parties) and, except as expressly set forth herein,
shall not impose any duty upon the Collateral Agent to exercise any such powers.
The Collateral Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually
receives as a result of the exercise of such powers at the direction of the
Administrative Agent, and neither the Collateral Agent nor any of its officers,
directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Secured Party or any
Loan Party for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its own gross
negligence or willful misconduct.
SECTION 7.10 COLLATERAL MATTERS RELATING TO RELATED OBLIGATIONS. The
benefit of the Loan Documents and of the provisions of this Agreement relating
to the Collateral shall extend to and be available in respect of any Secured
Obligation owed to Persons other than the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent and the Lenders (collectively, "Related Obligations") solely on the
condition and understanding, as among the Collateral Agent and all Secured
Parties, that (a) the Related Obligations shall be entitled to the benefit of
the Loan Documents and the Collateral to the extent expressly set forth in this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to such extent the Collateral Agent
shall hold, and have the right and power to act with respect to, the Subsidiary
Guaranty and the Collateral on behalf of and as agent for the holders of the
Related Obligations, but the Collateral Agent is otherwise acting solely as
agent for the Lenders and shall have no fiduciary duty, duty of loyalty, duty of
care, duty of disclosure or other obligation whatsoever to any holder of Related
Obligations, (b) all matters, acts and omissions relating in any manner to the
Subsidiary Guaranty, the Collateral, or the omission, creation, perfection,
priority, abandonment or release of any Lien, shall be governed solely by the
provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and no separate Lien,
right, power or remedy shall arise or exist in favor of any Secured Party under
any separate instrument or agreement or in respect of any Related Obligation,
(c) each Secured Party shall be bound by all actions taken or omitted, in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,
by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Requisite Lenders,
each of whom shall be entitled to act at its sole discretion and exclusively in
its own interest given its own Commitments and its own interest in the Term Loan
and other Obligations to it arising under this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, without any duty or liability to any other Secured Party or as to any
Related Obligation and without regard to whether any Related Obligation remains
outstanding or is deprived of the benefit of the Collateral or becomes unsecured
or is otherwise affected or put in jeopardy thereby, (d) no holder of Related
Obligations and no other Secured Party (except the Agents and the Lenders, to
the extent set forth in this Agreement) shall have any right to be notified of,
or to direct, require or be heard with respect to, any action taken or omitted
in respect of the Collateral or under this Agreement or the Loan Documents and
(e) no holder of any Related Obligation shall exercise any right of setoff,
banker's lien or similar right except to the extent provided in Section 8.6
(Right of Set-off) and then only to the extent such right is exercised in
compliance with Section 8.7 (Sharing of Payments, Etc.).

have no obligation to, with the written concurrence of any Lender, execute
amendments, modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of such Lender. Any

more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder

provided, however, that (i) the aggregate amount being assigned pursuant to each
such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with
respect to such assignment) shall in no event (if less than the Assignor's
entire interest) be less than $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000
in excess thereof, except, in either case, (A) with the consent of the
Administrative Agent or (B) if such assignment is being made to a Lender or an
Affiliate or Approved Fund of such Lender and (ii) if such Eligible Assignee is
not, prior to the date of such assignment, a Lender or an Affiliate or Approved
Fund of a Lender, such assignment shall be subject to the prior consent of the
Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed); provided, however, that anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Borrower shall not, at any time, be obligated to make under
Section 2.11 (Capital Adequacy) or Section 2.12 (Taxes) to the Eligible Assignee
any payment in excess of the amount that Borrower would have been obligated to
pay to such assigning Lender in respect of such interest had such assignment not
been made.
(b) The parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to
the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an
Assignment and Acceptance, together with any Note (if the assigning Lender's
Term Loan is evidenced by a Note) subject to such assignment. Upon the

and Acceptance and the receipt by the Administrative Agent from the assignee of
an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500 from and after the effective date

shall, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been
assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights
(except for those surviving the payment in full of the Obligations) and be
released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, other than those
relating to events or circumstances occurring prior to such assignment (and, in
the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion
of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, such
Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).
(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred
to in Section 8.8 (Notices, Etc.) a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance

Acceptance and, if the assigning Lender has surrendered any Note for exchange in
connection with the assignment and has retained the Commitment or Term Loan
hereunder, new Notes to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal to
the Commitment and Term Loan retained by it hereunder. Such new Notes shall be
dated the same date as the surrendered Notes and be in substantially the form of
Exhibit B (Form of Note).
(e) In addition to the other assignment rights provided in this
Section 8.1, each Lender may pledge or assign as collateral or otherwise, any of
its rights under this Agreement, whether now owned or hereafter acquired
(including rights to payments of principal or interest on the Term Loan), to (i)
without notice to or consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, any
Federal Reserve Bank (pursuant to Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board) and
(ii) without consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, any holder of,
or trustee, collateral agent, or collateral administrator for the benefit of,
the holders of such Lender's Securities; provided, however, that no such
assignment or grant shall release such Lender from any of its obligations
hereunder or substitute such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party
hereto.
(f) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more Persons in or
to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents
(including all its rights and obligations with respect to the Term Loan). The
terms of such participation shall not, in any event, require the participant's
consent to any amendments, waivers or other modifications of any provision of
any Loan Documents, the consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, or
to the exercising or refraining from exercising any powers or rights such Lender
may have under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including the right to
enforce the obligations of the Loan Parties), except if any such amendment,
waiver or other modification or consent would (i) reduce the amount, or postpone
any date fixed for, any amount (whether of principal, interest or fees) payable
to such participant under the Loan Documents, to which such participant would
otherwise be entitled under such participation or (ii) result in the release of
all or substantially all of the Collateral other than in accordance with Section
7.8 (Release of Collateral). In the event of the sale of any participation by
any Lender, (w) such Lender's obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain
unchanged, (x) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties
for the performance of such obligations, (y) such Lender shall remain the holder
of such Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement and (z) the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and

herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower shall not, at any time, be
obligated to make under Section 2.11 (Capital Adequacy), 2.12 (Taxes) or 2.10(d)

seq.) and applicable state property transfer laws, whether, with respect to any
such matter, such Indemnitee is a mortgagee pursuant to any leasehold mortgage,
a mortgagee in possession, the successor in interest to the Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries, or the owner, lessee or operator of any property of the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries by virtue of foreclosure, except, with

to the extent (x) incurred following foreclosure by the Administrative Agent,
the Collateral Agent, any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, the Collateral

obligation to defend against any investigation, litigation or proceeding or
requested Remedial Action, in each case contemplated in clause (a) above, and
the Borrower, in any event, may participate in the defense thereof with legal
counsel of the Borrower's choice. In the event that such Indemnitee requests the
Borrower to defend against such investigation, litigation or proceeding or
requested Remedial Action, the Borrower shall promptly do so and such Indemnitee
shall have the right to have legal counsel of its choice participate in such
defense. No action taken by legal counsel chosen by such Indemnitee in defending
against any such investigation, litigation or proceeding or requested Remedial
Action, shall vitiate or in any way impair the Borrower's obligation and duty
hereunder to indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnitee.
(d) The Borrower agrees that any indemnification or other protection
provided to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Agreement (including pursuant to
this Section 8.4) or any other Loan Document shall (i) survive payment in full
of the Obligations and (ii) inure to the benefit of any Person that was at any
time an Indemnitee under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
SECTION 8.5 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
(a) The Borrower agrees that no Indemnitee shall have any liability
(whether in contract, tort or otherwise) to any Loan Party or any of their
respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective equity holders or creditors
for or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and in the other
Loan Documents, except to the extent such liability is determined in a final
non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted
primarily from such Indemnitee's gross negligence or willful misconduct. In no
event, however, shall any Indemnitee be liable on any theory of liability for
any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including, without
limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings). Each of the
Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees (each for itself and on behalf of
its Subsidiaries) not to xxx upon any such claim for any special, indirect,
consequential or punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not
known or suspected to exist in its favor.
(b) IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY AGENT AFFILIATE HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY
LOAN PARTY, LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT
OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES
(WHETHER IN TORT OR CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN PARTY OR ANY
AGENT AFFILIATE'S TRANSMISSION OF APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE
INTERNET OR ANY USE OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT
SUCH LIABILITY OF ANY AGENT AFFILIATE IS FOUND IN A FINAL NON-APPEALABLE
JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM
SUCH AGENT AFFILIATE'S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.
SECTION 8.6 RIGHT OF SET-OFF. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default each Lender and each Affiliate of a Lender
is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special,
time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other Indebtedness at
any time owing by such Lender or its Affiliates to or for the credit
72
SECOND LIEN CREDIT AGREEMENT
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the Obligations now or
hereafter existing whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under
this Agreement or any other Loan Document and even though such Obligations may
be unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such
set-off and application made by such Lender or its Affiliates; provided,
however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of
such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section 8.6
are in addition to the other rights and remedies (including other rights of
set-off) that such Lender may have.
SECTION 8.7 SHARING OF PAYMENTS, ETC.
(a) If any Lender (directly or through an Affiliate thereof) obtains
any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right
of set-off (including pursuant to Section 8.6 (Right of Set-off) or otherwise)
of the Term Loan owing to it, any interest thereon, fees in respect thereof or
amounts due pursuant to Section 8.3 (Costs and Expenses) or 8.4 (Indemnities)
(other than payments pursuant to Sections 2.10 (Special Provisions Governing
Eurodollar Rate Loans), 2.11 (Capital Adequacy) or 2.12 (Taxes) or otherwise
receives any Collateral or any "Proceeds" (as defined in the Pledge and Security
Agreement) of Collateral (other than payments pursuant to Sections 2.10 (Special
Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans), 2.11 (Capital Adequacy) or 2.12
(Taxes) (in each case, whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of
any right of set-off or otherwise (including pursuant to Section 8.6 (Right of
Set-off))) in excess of its Ratable Portion (but taking into account the effect
to any prepayment made to Lenders other than Declining Lenders pursuant to
Section 2.6 (Mandatory Prepayments)) of all payments of such Obligations
obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender (a "Purchasing Lender") shall forthwith
purchase from the other Lenders (each, a "Selling Lender") such participations
in their interest in the Term Loan or other Obligations as shall be necessary to
cause such Purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of
them.
(b) If all or any portion of any payment received by a Purchasing
Lender is thereafter recovered from such Purchasing Lender, such purchase from
each Selling Lender shall be rescinded and such Selling Lender shall repay to
the Purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together
with an amount equal to such Selling Lender's ratable share (according to the
proportion of (i) the amount of such Selling Lender's required repayment in
relation to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the Purchasing Lender) of
any interest or other amount paid or payable by the Purchasing Lender in respect
of the total amount so recovered.
(c) The Borrower agrees that any Purchasing Lender so purchasing a
participation from a Selling Lender pursuant to this Section 8.7 may, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including
the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such
Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such
participation.

provided, however, that each Agent and each Lender may assume that, absent such
identification, any such notice, information or other communication contains
such material non-public information.

Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any
right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or
partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are
cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.
SECTION 8.10 BINDING EFFECT. This Agreement shall become effective
when it shall have been executed by the Borrower and each Agent and when the
