Resolution:
 
 
The above proposals be and hereby were approved as proposed.
 
Item 2 (Proposed by the Board of Directors)
 
Proposal:
To finance future capacity expansion, provide for working capital increases, repay bank loans, or cope with other needs for funds in the longer term, the AGM is urged to authorize the board to issue GDRs through cash capital increases, conduct domestic cash capital increases, or issue convertible bonds in Taiwan or overseas according to articles of incorporation, relevant regulations and the following rules.
 
Explanation:
1.
The principles to authorize the board of directors to issue new common shares and GDR for capital increase in cash shall be as follows:
(1)   Shares issued via issuance of GDRs through cash capital increases shall not exceed 500 million with the board and president authorized to conduct only one issue and decide how many shares to be issued depending on market circumstances.
(2)   The price at which shares are issued via issuance of GDRs through cash capital increases shall not fall below 90% of the simple arithmetic mean of the share's closing price on the date the issue price is set and its closing price one, three or five days prior to the price-setting date as per "Self-imposed Rules Governing Underwriters Assisting Companies in Issuing Securities" announced by Taiwan Securities Association. If relevant regulations change, the pricing method may be changed accordingly. As share prices often fluctuate substantially in a short time, the president is authorized to set the issue price by following international practices after consulting the underwriter and considering international capital markets' circumstances, domestic market prices, and the book building status. The GDR's issue price is decided based on the fair market price of the
 
 
 
-4-

 
 
 
    company's common stock. Original shareholders may purchase common stock in Taiwan's stock market at a price close to the GDR's issue price without having to assume exchange and liquidity risks. In addition, shares issued via issuance of GDRs through cash capital increases will dilute the original shareholders' equity to a maximum of 8.26%, not a major impact on shareholders' rights and interests.
 
   
(3)   10% of common shares issued for capital increase in cash shall, according to Article 267 of The Company Act, be reserved for subscription by company employees and the remaining 90% will be fully appropriated for open issuance as the securities for GDR as the original shareholders have waived their rights for subscription in accordance with Article 28.1 of the Securities Trading Act. For the part that employees have not subscribed, the chairman of the board is authorized to contact specific party for purchase or, depending on the market requirements, list as the original securities for participation in the issuance of GDR.
(4)   Funds raised by shares issued via issuance of GDRs through cash capital increases shall be used to purchase materials overseas, provide for working capital increases, repay bank loans, purchase machinery and equipment and/or invest in other firms. Implementation shall be completed within 2 years after the funds are raised. The project is expected to boost the Company's competitiveness, improve its efficiency, and have a positive impact on shareholders' rights and interests.
(5)   The board of directors is authorized to set the major contents of the capital increase in cash plan, which includes issuance price, number of shares issued, issuance conditions, source of capital, plan items, amount of fund raised, estimated progress and estimated probable effect generated as well as the issuance plan of participation in the issuance of GDR.
(6)   Once the plan for capital increase in cash is approved by the competent regulatory authority, the board of directors will be authorized to proceed with matters related to issuance of new shares.
(7)   If the agreement on issuance time, issuance condition, issuance volume, issuance amount of capital increase in cash and participation in issuance of GDR as well as other matters related to capital increase in cash and participation in issuance of GDR needs update in future due to the decision by the competent regulatory authority and on the basis of operation evaluation, or the needs of objective environment, the board of directors shall be authorized to handle at its full discretion.
(8)   In conjunction with the issuance method of common shares for capital increase in cash and participation in GDR issuance, the chairman of the board or his designated representative is authorized to represent the Company in signing all documents related to the participation in the issuance of GDR as well as handling all needed matters related to the participation in the issuance of GDR.

The issue price shall be decided by the president after consulting the underwriter as per "Self-imposed Rules Governing Underwriters Assisting Companies in Issuing Securities" announced by Taiwan Securities Association and market conditions at time of issue and approved by the regulatory authority.
(3)   Cash capital increases shall be conducted through book building. 10%-15% shall be set aside for subscription by employees as per Article 267 of the Company Act. The remainder, the right to subscribe for which is forfeited by original shareholders as per Article 28.1 of the Securities Exchange Act, shall be made available to the public through book building. In addition, if the Company’s employees have not subscribed sufficiently and adequately or waived the right to subscribe, the chairman may contact specific party for purchase.
(4)   Funds raised through cash capital increases shall be used to purchase materials from overseas, provide for working capital increases, repay bank loans, purchase machinery and equipment and/or invest in other firms. Implementation shall be completed within 2 years after the funds are raised. The project is expected to boost the Company's competitiveness, improve its efficiency, and have a positive impact on shareholders' rights and interests.
(5)   The board of directors is authorized to set the major contents of the capital increase in cash plan, which includes issuance price, number of shares issued, issuance conditions, plan items, amount of fund raised, estimated progress and estimated probable effect generated as well as the issuance plan of participation in the issuance of GDR. If a cash capital increase must be changed as ordered by the regulatory authority or required by circumstances, the board is authorized to make corresponding changes.

Business Report
 
In 2010, the global economy continued the trend of recovery that had begun in 2009 and finally returned to prosperity. The economic growth in 2010 is expected to reach 4.8%. According to the report issued by the IEK ITIS project of Industrial Technology Research Institute, the output of Taiwan's semiconductor industry in 2010 experienced a significant growth of 41.5% compared with 2009, which was higher than the 31.6% growth rate of global semiconductor industry. The output of the assembly industry was NT$297 billion, a growth of 48.8% over 2009, whereas the output of the testing industry amounted to NT$132.7 billion, a growth of 51.5% compared with 2009. Although the economy has returned to the level before the eruption of the financial crisis, advanced nations and emerging economies have been growing at very different pace, the former moderately and the latter much more aggressively. Following the recovery from the crisis, exchange rate fluctuations, surging gold prices and credit crisis of EU member states were still among major concerns. The Company endeavored to achieve growth and performance while adopting prudent response measures to address a variety of challenges and changes in the industry landscape. The following is our report on the company’s operation for the past year:

"2010 Operating Results"
 
1.     Implementation results for the 2010 business plan
The Company’s combined revenues for 2010 were NT$188.7 billion, an increase of NT$103 billion over 2009, equivalent to a 120% growth. For semiconductor assembly and testing services, the Company's revenue in 2010 was NT$123 billion, a growth of 47%. Overall, 2010 was a very successful year for the Company. Apart from higher growth in performance compared to competitors and the industry as a whole, the Company's market share in the global assembly and testing foundry market increased by 2%. The proportion of IDM customers was also rising by the quarter and was now in the range of 38-39%. Meanwhile, a China-based chip maker also become one of our top ten customers. Furthermore, major Japanese IDMs continued to engage the Company in back-end services, and they accounted for 10% of our revenues. The Company's capital expenditures in 2010 was a record high, pushing copper wire bond assembly revenue as high as 18% of total revenues. In addition, the Company also achieved substantial gains in the expansion of production sites: During the second half of 2010, the Company acquired the Singapore plant of EEMS to enhance our market share in Southeast Asia and strengthen our competitiveness in the region; The Kaohsiung operations also expanded production capacity by acquisitions and by constructing new plants; Our plans for the second half of the year include capital increase for the subsidiary ASE Weihai in China, significantly expanding the assembly and testing capacity of discrete devices. We look forward to a substantial growth next year. Finally, the inauguration of the ASE Kunshan plant is also expected to contribute considerably to the Company's future profitability.

2.     Budget performance

This year's ratios are at about the same levels as those in the preceding year. The Company's financial structure and ability to repay debts are relatively sound. This year's after-tax net profit rose to NT$18,337,500,000, a 172% increase over 2009. The Company's overall operating results and profitability are excellent, with performance greatly exceeding the level in 2009 and has brought the Company back to the profitability level before the global economic downturn, a significant achievement indeed.

4.     R&D overview
New technologies successfully developed by the Company in 2010 developed are categorized as follows: (1) For flip-chip assembly, 40 nano copper process / 40 nano copper process with tin and lead-free flip-chip assembly and wire-bond assembly of wafers with an ultra-low dielectric coefficient / lead-free flip-chip stacking assembly of wafers with a low dielectric coefficient, 40 μm nano pitch mixed flip-chip and wire-bond stacking assembly, copper process/ concealed laser cutting for thin wafers with a low dielectric coefficient, and fine pitch non-conductive flip-chip thin film substrate. (2) For wire-bond assembly, 32 nano copper / gold wire-bond assembly of wafers with an ultra-low dielectric coefficient, 45 nano copper / copper wire-bond assembly of wafers with an ultra-low dielectric coefficient, high-density aQFN assembly.

3.     Important production and sales policies
The popularity of consumer electronics products such as smart phones, tablet PCs, smart TVs and game consoles in recent years is expected to drive the continuing growth of the semiconductor industry. These products represent the impetus for the future growth of the Company's revenues. Tablet computers are especially significant since most of our customers are suppliers of tablet PC-related devices and components. Meanwhile, the Company will also focus on the conversion of copper processes to improve cooperation in the semiconductor industry supply chain and to reduce costs in keeping pace with the enormous demand for communications products in emerging markets as well as the trend toward lower costs in the production of smart phones. We continue to develop packaging and testing services with high added-value and high unit prices as well as sophisticated and innovative high-end integrated circuits, while delegating packaging and testing services for discrete components, which are of lower unit prices, less sophisticated and technologically less advanced, to our mainland operations. The purpose is to increase the Company's competitiveness and achieve a balance of development between corss strait.

"Development Strategy"

According to estimates provided by the IEK ITIS project of Industrial Technology Research Institute, in 2011 the semiconductor industry will continue to grow but at a slower rate, which is projected to be 8.7%. The assembly and testing sectors are estimated to grow at about 10.3% and 11.1%, respectively. With the price of gold rising substantially, our competitors' copper wire bonding process capability is also catching up, and with local IC manufacturers and major overseas component integration vendors becoming more willing to adopt copper processing, the Company will be investing a significant amount of capital expenditure to expand our copper wire bonding machines in order to achieve a 35% proportion of wire bonding for the entire year. The continuing expansion of operations outsourced by integrated device manufacturers (IDMs) in 2011 is the main driving force behind the high growth of Taiwan's IC packaging and testing industry. The Company is committed to raising the proportion of revenues from IDM customers. In addition, China's economic growth in 2010 ranked highest among East Asian emerging markets, and aggressive pursuit of the expansion of our China operations is also the niche of the Company's continued growth.

"Impacts of Competition, Legislation and Operating Environment"

The improving global economy has helped to materialize the benefits from the programs introduced by the Company during the financial crisis of the past two years on human resources, production lines, cost planning and integrated solutions; we have since achieved unprecedented revenues and profits. With the government's liberalization and encouragement of establishing presence in China by Taiwanese enterprises and with the signing of ECFA, the Company has invested in and set up production plants in China, utilizing the vast amount of human resources available locally to improve our product lines and increase our competitiveness. Our improved market share has further accelerated the Company's growth. Faced with the fluctuations in the New Taiwan dollar exchange rate and the rise of the IC packaging and testing industry in China, the Company is committed to improving our position constantly and the adoption of adequate risk management and control measures. The Company and the management team are not complacent with past achievements. In stead we strive to further improve our competitiveness and set the goal of creating higher profits for our shareholders in appreciation of their support.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
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, 2009 and 2010, 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, 2010, 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 financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall 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, 2009 and 2010, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010, in conformity with the Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and 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.  Thereafter, the USI shareholdings held by the Company were increased to 98.9%.  As a result, the consolidated results of operations of USI and its subsidiaries from the date of acquisition to December 31, 2010 have been included in the consolidated financial statements referred to above.

As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, starting from January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the newly revised ROC Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No.10, “Accounting for Inventories”.  Besides, starting from January 1, 2008, the Company changed its method of accounting for bonuses paid to employees, directors and supervisors upon adoption of Interpretation 96-052, “Accounting for Bonuses to Employees, Directors and Supervisors” issued by the ROC Accounting Research and Development Foundation (“ARDF”) in March 2007.

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 32 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, 2010, 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 28, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
