7. Matters for Discussions
 
Item 1 (proposed by the Board of Directors)
 
Proposal:
Please consider a share issue by converting earnings into equity stock.
 
Explanation:
1.
To fund a factory expansion project, plans are being made to issue 931,599,554 new shares at a face value of NT$10 each to raise NT$9,315,995,540 with dividends of the same amount to be distributed in 2011.
     
  2.  Rules governing allotment of new shares: Based on the number of shares recorded in the Company's Register of Shareholders on March 20, 2012,
 
 
- 3 -

 
 
 
    namely 6,654,282,532, each 1,000 shares are eligible for an allotment of 140 shares for earnings converted into capital stock. If the number of shares eligible for dividend distribution changes as a result of conversion of offshore convertible bonds, exercise of stock options by employees, cash capital increases, buyback of company shares, or assignment or cancelation of treasury stock, shareholders are urged to authorize the board of directors to make corresponding adjustments, if any, to per-share dividends. Shareholders allotted fractions of a share will coordinate among themselves to combine and form whole shares within five days after the ex-dividend date. Share fractions failing to combine will be paid fractions of the face value in cash and the president will be authorized by the board to have them purchased by certain persons.
     
  3.
Rights and obligations of newly issued shares are the same as those of existing shares.
     
  4. 
Ex-dividend date: The board is authorized to set the date after it is passed at the AGM and approved by the regulatory authority.
     
  5.
The factory expansion plan financed by the capital increase is expected to be completed by December 2015. Implementation of the plan is expected to boost the Company's competitiveness, improve its efficiency, and have a positive impact on shareholders' rights and interests. The board is authorized to make necessary changes if the capital increase must be changed as ordered by the regulatory authority or required by circumstances.
 
Resolution:
Voting results: Ratify 4,149,570,076 shares (including exercised by way of electronic transmission 1,224,926,930 shares); Oppose 14,784,578 shares (including exercised by way of electronic transmission 14,784,578 shares); Abstain from voting 863,109,007 shares (including exercised by way of electronic transmission 863,109,007 shares).  Resolved, that the above proposal be and hereby was approved as proposed.
 
Item 2 (proposed by the Board of Directors)
 
Proposal:
The Company's  overseas private placement of convertible bonds
 
 
- 4 -

 
 
 
Explanation: 1. In support of the long-term capital requirements for the Company's strategic development, the shareholders' meeting is requested to authorize the Board of Directors to conduct overseas private placement of convertible bonds (hereinafter referred to simply as "convertible bonds") at the appropriate time and in accordance with the Company's capital requirements at the time, financial market conditions or regulatory requirements within the following time limit in order to raise the required long-term funding: within one year following the resolution is passed at the shareholders' meeting. The Company may select the private placement overseas unsecured convertible bonds or subordinated convertible perpetuities, or a combination of both. However, the maximum amount of the privately placed convertible bonds shall be NT$9 billion. The tentative issuance and conversion policy of the current private placement of convertible bonds for unsecured convertible, please refer to Attachments IV and subordinated convertible perpetuities, please refer to Attachment V.
     
  2. Basis and rationality for pricing privately placed securities
     
    The pricing for the Company's privately placed convertible bonds shall be based on no less than 80% of the theoretical price referred to in the "Directions for Public Companies Conducting Private Placements of Securities." To determine the actual issue price, the shareholders' meeting is requested to authorize the Board of Directors to proceed in accordance to applicable laws, the pricing basis and range of percentage specified by the resolution reached at the shareholders' meeting, the prevailing market conditions and the Company's situation. The pricing of the current privately placed convertible bonds is based on the regulatory requirements of the competent authority. In consideration of the fact that the timing for the transfer of ownership of privately placed securities, parties to whom the securities are transferred and the quantity of transfer are all strictly regulated, as well as factors such as the securities may not be listed on the exchange for three years and their lower liquidity, the conditions laid down for the current private placement of corporate bonds are therefore quite reasonable.
 
 
- 5 -

 
 
 
  3.  Selection and purpose of subscribers, necessity and expected benefits
     
    The selection of subscribers shall be carried out pursuant to Article 43-6 of the Securities and Exchange Act and the provisions of the order Tai-Tsai-1 No. 0910003455 issued by the original Securities and Futures Commission of the Ministry of Finance dated June 13, 2002. The purpose of the selection of subscribers in the current placement is the recruitment of strategic investors. The so-called "strategic investors" referred to here are individuals or corporate entities capable of improving the Company's profitability with their experience, technologies, knowledge, brands or channels via industrial vertical and horizontal integration or joint research and development of products and markets, which will help the Company achieve benefits such as enhanced technology, improved quality, reduced costs, increased efficiency and expanded markets. The selection of subscribers is carried out by the Board of Directors on authority of the shareholders' meeting. The purpose, necessity and expected benefits lie with accommodating the Company's business development requirements, and it is proposed that through private placement the investors will be able to help the Company to enhance its technology, improve quality, reduce costs, increase efficiency and expand markets, so as to raise the Company's competitiveness and enhance its operating performance and long-term development capabilities.
     
  4. 
Necessity for private placement, utilization of capital and expected benefits
     
    (1)
Rationality for not adopting the public offer approach:
       
      To accommodate the Company's future business development and to attract strategic investors; taking into consideration the timeliness, convenience, issuance costs and stability of ownership structure associated with private placements, along with the restrictions that ownership of the securities may not be transferred within three years, private placement ensures the long-term partnership of the Company with the strategic investors, and as a result private placement is adopted.
       
   
(2) 
Maximum amount raised via private placement:
       
      Privately placed convertible bonds are subject to a maximum amount of
 
 
- 6 -

 
 
      NT$9 billion. However, the actual amount that can be raised is subject to applicable laws at the time the placement is made, the conditions of the financial market and approval of the competent authority. In the event that the holders of the convertible bonds obtain the Company's common shares by exercising the conversion rights, the number of shares thus obtained shall be determined by the conversion price at the time of the conversion.
       
     (3)
Utilization of capital and expected benefits:
       
      The current private placement of securities may be carried out by the Board of Directors on authorization of the shareholders' meeting within one year of the passage of the resolution. The amount of capital raised is expected to be used for one or more of the following purposes: capital expenditure, increasing the working capital, repaying bank loans and reinvestment. It is also expected that all the capital will be utilized within three years of the private placement. The expected benefits are one or more of the following: strengthening of the Company's position within the industry, raising long-term competitiveness, improving the financial structure and achieving savings in interest expenses. These will produce a positive impact on the shareholders' equity. However, the actual placement process and capital utilization schedule will depend on the Company's capital requirements, regulations and the conditions of the financial market .
       
    5.
Rights and obligations associated with the conversion of the convertible bonds into common shares
       
      With respect to the common shares obtained from the conversion of convertible bonds from the current private placement, the associated rights and obligations are identical to those of the common shares issued by the Company. However, the listing and resale of these shares shall be governed by the relevant provisions of the Securities and Exchange Act. In the case of privately placed overseas convertible bonds, the provisions of the official letter FSC-Zheng-1 No. 09700513881, dated October 21, 2008 and issued by the Financial Supervisory Commission, Executive Yuan shall apply.
 
 
- 7 -

 
 
 
    6.  The main provisions of the current private placement include the issuance and conversion policies, actual privately placed price, private placement conditions, project items, amount, expected progress schedule, potential benefits and other matters associated with the issuance plan. The shareholders' meeting is asked to approve the private placement plan and authorize the Board of Directors to carry out the plan at its discretion and make adjustments in accordance with the Company's financial requirements, conditions in the financial market and relevant laws and regulations. he shareholders' meeting is also asked to authorize the Board of Directors to proceed at its discretion with any necessary modifications or adjustments to the plan in the event of regulatory changes, instructions from the competent authority, changes in the market, operational assessment or other objective environmental factors.
       
    7. To accommodate the follow-up operations associated with the private placement of convertible bonds, the shareholders' meeting is asked to authorize the Chairman of the Board or his designee to enter into all relevant contracts and documents on behalf of the Company and to handle all subsequent actions that are required.
       
     8.  For matters that are not covered herein, the shareholders' meeting is asked to authorize the Board of Directors to proceed at its discretion and in accordance with the law.

Business Report
 
Compared with the strong recovery of the global economy in 2010, 2011 was a comparatively slow year of economic growth, and the electronics industry overall declined by a slight margin. According to statistics compiled by World Semiconductor Trade Statistics (WSTS), global semiconductor sales grew by only 0.4% in 2011. The IEK ITIS project of the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) also reported that the production output of Taiwan's semiconductor industry for 2011 was NT$1 trillion 555.8 billion, a decline of about 11.3% compared with the preceding year. In the IC assembly and testing industry, weak global demand, the significant impact of the Japanese earthquake on the packaging materials supply chain and volatile gold prices resulted in the assembly industry's production output of NT$269.6 billion, a 6.1% decline compared with 2010. The testing industry's output was NT$120.8 billion, a 5.5% decrease over 2010. Looking back on 2011, the earthquake that greatly damaged Japan's economy and the European debt crisis triggering the downgrades of national credit ratings; the issues of the debt ceiling and the high US unemployment rate, were all factors that contributed to a decline in overall demand and confidence in the market. They also caused the Company to proceed in a more cautious and discreet manner in its business operations. The following is our report on the company’s operations for the past year:

"2011 Operating Results"
 
1.  
Implementation results for the 2011 business plan
 
The Company’s combined revenues for 2011 were NT$185.3 billion, a decrease of NT$3.4 billion over 2010, or a 2% decline. The Company's revenue in 2011 was NT$127.6 billion for semiconductor assembly and testing services, a growth of 2%. To enhance the level of integration with our subsidiary Power ASE Technology in the areas of resources, manpower and technology, the Company acquired the shares of Power ASE Technology on the open market in the second half of 2011, thus completing the acquisition process. Adjustment of the Group's overall product mix was done in order to phase out weaker products while retaining competitive ones in response to a reversal in the economic climate. In addition, the Company has endeavored to expand its production bases to increase capacity on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. We have begun the construction of the new ASE Shanghai Headquarters building in Pudong with the latest green building technology, which will enhance the Company's technological capabilities and give access to a wealth of talent in China. In Taiwan, two new factory buildings and an office building are being planned for the Company's Chungli plant. In addition, after our Kaohsiung K12 plant is complete, it will be the first assembly and testing plant to receive the Taiwan Green Building Diamond Certification and the LEED Gold Certification from the U.S. Green Building Council.

3.  
Analysis of financial accounts and profitability
 
As of the end of 2011, the Company's paid-in capital was NT$67,535,632 thousands and shareholders' equity was NT$101,169,536 thousands accounting for 59% of total assets of NT$171,078,607 thousands. Its long-term funds are 309% of fixed assets and current ratio is 55%. This year's ratios are slightly lower than the preceding year, but the Company's financial structure and ability to repay debts remain relatively sound. This year's operating profit was NT$10,859,132 thousands, an increase of NT$497,929 thousands over the preceding year, which indicates that the Company's core business has grown moderately by 5%. On the other hand, after-tax net profits were NT$13,725,958 thousands, a decline of 25% compared with the previous year. In terms of overall business operation, the turnover was on par with that of the preceding year, but due to rising gold prices and a stronger New Taiwan dollar, profits were lower than expected. Compared with the results of 2010, there is room for improvement.

4.  
R&D overview
 
The semiconductor industry is facing two major challenges: due to the gradual slowdown of the Moore's law, IC process shrinking on the front-end has caused advanced system-on-chip (SoC) integration to slow and the trend of commoditization of consumer electronics products. To respond to the general trends of the overall market, the direction of the Company's R&D strategies for new product and technology development should strike a balance between the two main focuses: "applying system in package (SiP) performance to compensate for the limitations of SoC" and "cost effectiveness." New technologies successfully developed by the Company in 2011 are categorized as follows: (1) For flip-chip assembly, 28 nano copper process / lead-free FCBGA/FCCSP packaging and wire-bond assembly of wafers with an ultra-low dielectric coefficient. (2) For wire-bond assembly, 28 nano copper / gold wire-bond assembly of wafers with an ultra-low dielectric coefficient, 40 nano copper / copper wire-bond assembly of wafers with an ultra-low dielectric coefficient. (3) On the 3D system assembly front, reliability certification was secured for 200mm 28-nm 3D wafer through silicon wafer (TSV) and 3D TSV Stacking Package Level, RF wireless communications (WiFi/BT/GPS/PA) module technology, and MEMS integration assembly. (4) For wafer assembly, 200 mm fan out WLP and 40 µm Pitch Cu Pillar Bump. The Company will endeavor to continue ASE's advanced fine pitch bump and assembly technology and to maintain its position as the global leader in semiconductor assembly and testing. (5) In addition to achieving R&D results in the field of advanced assembly technology, we have also taken Green Package specifications and elements of Eco-design into consideration in our product and technology development strategies. In the future we will continue to uphold our principles of sustainable R&D and to work closely and diligently with our customers and business partners to achieve technological innovations while minimizing the risks and impact to the environment.

3.  
Important production and sales policies
 
In terms of product strategy, the Company will continue to focus on the development of three major assembly processes, including copper wire bonding process, advanced assembly process and low pin count (discrete components) assembly. With respect to our long-term vision, the Company will endeavor to improve the revenue on the integrated device manufacturer (IDM) front, especially in the area of IDM copper wire bonding. In 2011 the revenue from IDM copper wire bonding accounted for only 8.3% of overall copper wire bonding revenue, and there remains significant room for improvement. It is expected that the revenue for IDM will experience vigorous growth in 2012. With portable electronic devices such as smartphones and tablet PCs becoming increasingly popular, semiconductor demand is now focused on miniaturization, high integration, high efficiency, low cost and reduced power consumption. The advent of multifunction integrated chips will present tremendous opportunities for the system assembly industry. The Company will continue to work closely with upstream and downstream vendors in the semiconductor supply chain as well as with customers to realize the considerable systems integration opportunities.
 
"Development Strategy"

According to projections made by ITRI​​'s IEK ITIS Project, Taiwan's semiconductor industry will grow by 6.5% in 2012. The assembly and testing sectors are estimated to grow at about 7.6% and 7.4%, respectively. Given the unstable global economy, it is necessary to make additional investments and rely on talent and innovation, reduce the cost of copper processes and enhance the quality of assembly and testing so as to improve our market shares in these two areas. The opening up of the Chinese market not only symbolizes the rise of the home market and the large concentration of high-tech talent in China but also the ability of the Company to acquire the professional expertise necessary for its continued growth. In addition, it will help realize the Company's strategies of growing into a major enterprise and expanding market share. Investing in both mainland China and Taiwan has long been the Company's development strategy. The markets of Taiwan and China have a complementary and not an adversarial relationship. We will expand our market share by utilizing the Company's technological, cost and integration advantages as well as continuing to expand our production lines. Another issue that enterprises must address is

the environment. As global awareness of environmental protection has taken hold and is unlikely to be reversed, corporations must actively tackle environmental issues head on and come up with workable solutions.
 
"Impacts of Competition, Legislation and Operating Environment"

Looking toward 2012, optimism is tempered with a hint of conservatism. The European debt crisis is expected to be alleviated gradually, and the greater affordability of smartphones and other mobile electronic products will spur another wave of growth for the semiconductor industry. Also, the inventory reduction of manufacturers is almost complete. However, problems associated with inflation, unemployment, rising gold prices and exchange rates remain significant concerns in the overall business landscape. Regardless of the changes in the external economic landscape, we hope to achieve growth by relying more on conditions that we create for ourselves rather than solely on the global economic environment. We also hope to enhance our corporate competitiveness to overcome various obstacles and difficulties and to create maximum benefits for our shareholders as well as to maintain the Company's long-term viability and growth.

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Advanced Semiconductor Engineering, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Advanced Semiconductor Engineering, Inc. (a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Republic of China) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of December 31, 2010 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011, all expressed in New Taiwan dollars.  These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Rules Governing the Audit of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants, auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China (“ROC”) and the Standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those rules and standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2010 and 2011, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the ROC.

As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company completed the tender offerings for the common shares of Universal Scientific Industrial Co., Ltd. (“USI”) in February and August 2010, respectively.  Upon the completion of the tender offerings, USI became a subsidiary of the Company.  As a result, the consolidated results of operations of USI and its subsidiaries from the date of acquisition had been included in the consolidated financial statements referred to above.

Accounting principles generally accepted in the ROC differ in certain significant respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  Information relating to the nature and effect of such differences is presented in Note 33 to the consolidated financial statements.

Our audits also comprehended the translation of New Taiwan dollar amounts into U.S. dollar amounts and, in our opinion, such translation has been made in conformity with the basis stated in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements.  Such U.S. dollar amounts are presented solely for the convenience of the readers.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated April 11, 2012 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
