Walsin Technology Corporation Financial Statements for the Years Ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 and Independent Auditors’ Report INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT The Board of Directors and Stockholders Walsin Technology Corporation We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Walsin Technology Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. The Company’s long-term equity investments of NT$641,407 thousand and NT$596,558 thousand (3.01% and 2.92% of total assets of the Company) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and total investment (loss) income of NT$(147,055) thousand and NT$117,645 thousand (17.00% and 11.03% of (loss) income before income tax) for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, were based on the financial statements audited by other independent auditors. Accordingly, our opinion, insofar as it relates to these investment-related amounts is based solely on the reports of the other auditors. We conducted our audits in accordance with the Rules Governing the Audit of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. 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 and the reports of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Walsin Technology Corporation as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with the Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, requirements of the Business Accounting Law and Guidelines Governing Business Accounting relevant to financial accounting standards, and accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of China. -1- We have also audited the consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 (not presented herewith) on which we have expressed a modified unqualified opinion with an explanatory paragraph in our report dated March 21, 2012. March 21, 2012 Notice to Readers The accompanying financial statements are intended only to present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles and practices generally accepted in the Republic of China and not those of any other jurisdictions. The standards, procedures and practices to audit such financial statements are those generally accepted and applied in the Republic of China. For the convenience of readers, the auditors’ report and the accompanying financial statements have been translated into English from the original Chinese version prepared and used in the Republic of China. If there is any conflict between the English version and the original Chinese version or any difference in the interpretation of the two versions, the Chinese-language auditors’ report and financial statements shall prevail. Also, as stated in Note 2 to the financial statements, the additional footnote disclosures that are not required under generally accepted accounting principles were not translated into English. -2- WALSIN TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION BALANCE SHEETS DECEMBER 31, 2011 AND 2010 (In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars) 2011 Amount ASSETS CURRENT ASSETS Cash and cash equivalents (Notes 2 and 4) Financial asset at fair value through profit or loss, current (Notes 2 and 5) Notes receivable (Notes 2 and 6) Notes receivable from related parties (Notes 2, 6 and 22) Accounts receivable (Notes 2 and 6) Accounts receivable from related parties (Notes 2, 6 and 22) Other receivables Other receivables from related parties (Note 22) Inventories (Notes 2 and 7) Deferred income tax assets - current (Notes 2 and 21) Other current assets Total current assets $ 2010 Amount % 339,843 2 48,938 42,674 597,735 796,826 14,405 168,243 802,458 48,992 38,369 2,898,483 $ % 320,282 2 3 4 1 4 - 48,429 2,029 528,497 846,606 60,781 147,437 924,411 113,993 66,487 3 4 1 4 1 - 14 3,058,952 15 CURRENT LIABILITIES Short-term loans (Note 13) Accounts payable Accounts payable to related parties (Note 22) Income tax payable (Notes 2 and 21) Payables on equipment (Note 22) Other payables (Notes 14 and 22) Current portion of long-term debt (Note 15) Other current liabilities Total current liabilities LONG-TERM LIABILITIES Long-term debt (Note 15) RESERVE FOR LAND VALUE INCREMENT TAX (Notes 2 and 12) INVESTMENTS Long-term equity investments at equity method (Notes 2 and 8) Available-for-sale financial assets - noncurrent (Notes 2 and 9) Financial assets carried at cost - noncurrent (Notes 2 and 10) Total investments PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT (Notes 2 and 11) Cost Buildings and improvements Machinery and equipment Transportation equipment Leasehold improvements Other equipment Less: Accumulated depreciation Less: Accumulated impairment Construction in progress and prepayments for equipment Property, plant and equipment, net INTANGIBLE ASSETS (Note 2) Other intangible assets OTHER ASSETS (Notes 2 and 12) Idle assets Guarantee deposits paid Deferred charges Deferred income tax assets - noncurrent Other assets - others Total other assets TOTAL 2011 Amount LIABILITIES AND STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY 13,630,838 571,943 169,330 64 2 1 12,182,219 836,480 169,330 60 4 1 14,372,111 67 13,188,029 65 OTHER LIABILITIES Guarantee deposits received Deferred credit (Note 2) Total other liabilities Total liabilities 3,025,145 6,432,016 8,272 159,386 574,720 10,199,539 (6,675,421) (47,000) 151,765 14 30 1 3 48 (32) 1 2,367,727 6,108,510 8,974 144,382 543,460 9,173,053 (5,990,925) 473,371 11 30 1 3 45 (29) 2 3,628,883 17 3,655,499 18 9,021 - 4,826 - 138,823 27,531 5,364 107,000 99,504 1 1 - 144,260 26,803 5,270 235,000 95,115 1 1 - 378,222 2 506,448 2 $ 21,286,720 100 $ 20,413,754 100 STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY Capital stock Common stock (Note 17) Advance receipts for common stock (Note 17) Capital surplus Additional paid-in capital from share issuance in excess of par Treasury stock transactions Gain on disposal of property, plant and equipment Long-term equity investments at equity method Capital surplus from business combination Retained earnings (Note 18) Legal reserve (Accumulated deficit) unappropriated earnings Cumulative translation adjustments (Note 2) Unrealized valuation gain or loss on financial instruments (Note 9) Unrealized revaluation increment Treasury stock - 2011: zero; 2010: 18,951 thousand shares (Notes 2 and 19) Total stockholders’ equity TOTAL The accompanying notes are an integral part of the financial statements.

ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS Walsin Technology Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in the Republic of China (ROC) on July 29, 1970 to design, develop and manufacture semiconductors and LED (light-emitting diode) chips. In 1992, the Company purchased the machinery, equipment and inventory of the electronic department of Walsin Lihwa Corporation to establish its Yang-Mei Plant on July 1 and changed its major operations to the manufacture of electronic ceramics, including multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) and ceramic resistors. In 1995, the Company established a branch in Kaohsiung to research, develop, produce and sell new products such as chip resistors, RF (radio frequency) devices and high-frequency inductors and, in 2006, the Company established a branch in Taichung to produce disc capacitors and new products. The Company closed its operations in the Taichung Branch in August 2009. The Company’s common stock began to be traded in Taiwan’s over-the-counter (OTC) market on November 21, 1997. Later, the Company’s stock ceased to be OTC traded and became listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange on September 17, 2001. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had 1,513 and 1,899 employees, respectively. The major stockholder, Walsin Lihwa Corporation, held 18.11% ownership interest in the Company as of December 31, 2011. The Company’s head office is located at 566-1, Kao-shi Road, Yang-Mei, Taoyuan. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, Business Accounting Law, Guidelines Governing Business Accounting, and accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of China (“ROC”). For readers’ convenience, the accompanying financial statements have been translated into English from the original Chinese version prepared and used in the ROC. If inconsistencies arise between the English version and the Chinese version or if differences arise in the interpretations between the two versions, the Chinese version of the financial statements shall prevail. However, the Corporation’s financial statements do not include the English translation of additional disclosures that are not required under generally accepted accounting principles but are required by the Securities and Futures Bureau for their oversight purposes. Significant accounting policies are summarized as follows: Foreign Currencies The financial statements of foreign operations are translated into New Taiwan dollars at the following exchange rates: a. b. c. d. Assets and liabilities - at exchange rates prevailing on the balance sheet date; Shareholders’ equity - at historical exchange rates; Dividends - at the exchange rate prevailing on the dividend declaration date; and Income and expenses - at average exchange rates for the year. Exchange differences arising from the translation of the financial statements of foreign operations are recognized as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. Such exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss in the year in which the foreign operations are disposed of. - 10 - Non-derivative foreign-currency transactions are recorded in New Taiwan dollars at the rates of exchange in effect when the transactions occur. Exchange differences arising from settlement of foreign-currency assets and liabilities are recognized in profit or loss. At the balance sheet date, foreign-currency monetary assets and liabilities are revalued using prevailing exchange rates and the exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss. At the balance sheet date, foreign-currency nonmonetary assets (such as equity instruments) and liabilities that are measured at fair value are revalued using prevailing exchange rates, with the exchange differences treated as follows: a. Recognized in shareholders’ equity if the changes in fair value are recognized in shareholders’ equity; b. Recognized in profit and loss if the changes in fair value are recognized in profit or loss. Foreign-currency nonmonetary assets and liabilities that are carried at cost continue to be stated at exchange rates at trade dates. If the functional currency of an equity-method investee is a foreign currency, translation adjustments will result from the translation of the investee’s financial statements into the reporting currency of the Company. Such adjustments are accumulated and reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. Accounting Estimates Under above guidelines, law and principles, certain estimates and assumptions have been used for the allowance for doubtful accounts, allowance for loss on inventories, depreciation and impairment of property, plant and equipment, income tax, pension cost, bonuses to employees, directors and supervisors, etc. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Current/Noncurrent Assets and Liabilities Current assets include cash and cash equivalents, and those assets held primarily for trading purposes or to be realized, sold or consumed within one year from the balance sheet date. All other assets such as property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are classified as noncurrent. Current liabilities are obligations incurred for trading purposes or to be settled within one year from the balance sheet date. All other liabilities are classified as noncurrent. Cash Equivalents Cash equivalents consist of commercial paper, bank acceptances and repurchase agreements collateralized by bonds which are highly liquid financial instruments with maturities of three months or less when acquired and with carrying amounts that approximate their fair values. Financial Assets and Liabilities at Fair Value through Profit or Loss Financial instruments classified as financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”) include financial assets or financial liabilities held for trading and those designated as at FVTPL on initial recognition. The Company recognizes a financial asset or a financial liability on its balance sheet when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. A financial asset is derecognized when the Company has lost control of its contractual rights over the financial asset. A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation specified in the relevant contract is discharged, cancelled or expired. Financial instruments at FVTPL are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at FVTPL are recognized immediately in profit or loss. At each balance sheet date subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets or financial liabilities - 11 - at FVTPL are remeasured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized directly in profit or loss in the year in which they arise. Cash dividends received subsequently (including those received in the year of investment) are recognized as income for the year. On derecognition of a financial asset or a financial liability, the difference between its carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable or consideration paid and payable is recognized in profit or loss. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis. A derivative that does not meet the criteria for hedge accounting is classified as a financial asset or a financial liability held for trading. If the fair value of the derivative is positive, the derivative is recognized as a financial asset; otherwise, the derivative is recognized as a financial liability. Fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities at the balance sheet date are determined as follows: Publicly traded stocks - at closing prices; and open-end mutual funds - at net asset values. Impairment of Accounts Receivable An allowance for doubtful accounts is provided on the basis of a review of the collectibility of accounts receivable. The Company assesses the probability of collections of accounts receivable by examining the aging analysis of the outstanding receivables and assessing the value of the collateral provided by customers. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, on January 1, 2011, the Company adopted the third-time revised Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 34, “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.” One of the main revisions is that impairment of receivables originated by the Company should be covered by SFAS No. 34. Accounts receivable are assessed for impairment at the end of each reporting period and considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the accounts receivable, the estimated future cash flows of the asset have been affected. Inventories Inventories consist of raw materials, supplies, finished goods, work-in-process and semi-finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory write-downs are made item by item, except where it may be appropriate to group similar or related items. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price of inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories are recorded at standard cost and adjusted to approximate weighted-average cost on the balance sheet date. Estimated losses on scrap and slow-moving items are recognized as an allowance for inventory obsolescence on the balance sheet date. Investments Accounted for by Equity Method Investments in which the Company holds 20% or more of the investees’ voting shares or exercises significant influence over the investees’ operating and financial policy decisions are accounted for by the equity method. The investment cost is allocated to the assets and liabilities of the investee on the basis of their fair values (proportionate to the percentage of ownership) at the date of investment, and the investment cost in excess of the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the investee is recognized as goodwill. Goodwill is not amortized, but should be tested for impairment every year and for specific events or changes in circumstances which indicate that such carrying value may not be recoverable. The fair value of the net identifiable assets of the investee in excess of the investment cost is used to reduce the fair value of each of the noncurrent assets of the investee (except for financial assets other than investments accounted for by the equity method, noncurrent assets held for sale, deferred income tax assets, prepaid pension or other postretirement benefit) in proportion to the respective fair values of the noncurrent assets, with any excess recognized as an extraordinary gain. - 12 - The Company’s investments previously classified as available-for-sale financial assets are reclassified into investments accounted for by the equity method when the Company is able to exercise significant influence over the investee. The carrying amount of the investment at the beginning of the year is deemed cost for the purpose of applying the equity method. If the Company owns directly and indirectly more than 50% equity interest in an investee or can exercise control over an investee, equity in earnings or losses of the investee is recognized on the basis of the investee’s financial statements for the same reporting period as that of the Company. When the Company subscribes for its investee’s newly issued shares at a percentage different from its percentage of ownership in the investee, the Company records the change in its equity in the investee’s net assets as an adjustment to investments, with a corresponding amount credited or charged to capital surplus. When the adjustment should be debited to capital surplus, but the capital surplus arising from long-term investments is insufficient, the shortage is debited to retained earnings. When the Company’s share in losses of an investee over which the Company has control exceeds its investment in the investee, unless the other stockholders of the investee have assumed legal or constructive obligations and have demonstrated the ability to make payments on behalf of the investee, the Company has to bear all of the losses in excess of the capital contributed by stockholders of the investee. The credit balance on the book value of the long-term equity investment is treated as a liability on the balance sheet. If the investee subsequently reports profits, such profits are first attributed to the Company to the extent of the excess losses previously borne by the Company. An investment is evaluated for impairment on the balance sheet date and loss is recognized if there is objective evidence showing that the investment is impaired. The impairment losses on those investments in which the Company has significant influence but with no control are evaluated at their respective carrying amounts. The Company’s controllable investees are included in the consolidated financial statements. Available-for-sale Financial Assets Available-for-sale financial assets are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition. At each balance sheet date subsequent to initial recognition, available-for-sale financial assets are remeasured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in equity until the financial assets are disposed of, at which time, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in equity is included in profit or loss for the year. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis. The recognition, derecognition and the fair value bases of available-for-sale financial assets are the same with those of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Cash dividends are recognized on the ex-dividend date, except for dividends distributed from the pre-acquisition profit, which are treated as a reduction of investment cost. Stock dividends are not recognized as investment income but are recorded as an increase in the number of shares. The total number of shares subsequent to the increase is used for recalculation of cost per share. An impairment loss is recognized when there is objective evidence that the financial asset is impaired. Any subsequent decrease in impairment loss on an equity instrument classified as available-for-sale is recognized directly in equity. - 13 - Financial Assets Carried at Cost Investments in equity instruments with no quoted prices in an active market and with fair values that cannot be reliably measured, such as non-publicly traded stocks and stocks traded in the Emerging Stock Market, are measured at their original cost. The accounting treatment for dividends on financial assets carried at cost is the same with that for dividends on available-for-sale financial assets. An impairment loss is recognized when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired. A reversal of this impairment loss is disallowed. Property, Plant and Equipment and Idle Assets Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures that would increase the value or extend the useful lives of property, plant and equipment are capitalized. Interest incurred during asset construction period is capitalized until the asset is substantially completed and ready for its intended use. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives as follows: Buildings and improvements Machinery and equipment Transportation equipment Other equipment Leasehold improvements 3 to 50 years 3 to 6 years 5 years 3 to 5 years Lower of 3 years or the contract term Property, plant and equipment (including idle assets) that are not used in operations are classified as other assets at the lower of net realizable values or book values, and any excess of book value over net realizable value is reported as nonoperating loss. An additional service life and a new residual value will be determined for any depreciable asset which is still in use after the end of its prescribed useful life, and the original residual value is depreciated on the straight-line method. Upon sale or disposal of property, plant and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is credited or charged to nonoperating income or loss. Intangible Assets Intangible assets are stated at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over their maturity periods. License fee is amortized on a straight-line basis over the contract term or over the economic useful lives of the assets. Computer software is amortized on a straight-line basis over 3 years. Deferred Charges Deferred charges are stated at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over their maturity periods. - 14 - Impairment of Assets If the recoverable amount of an asset (mainly property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, deferred charges and investments accounted for by the equity method) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is charged to earnings unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is first treated as a deduction to the unrealized revaluation increment and any remaining loss is charged to earnings. If an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased accordingly, but the increased carrying amount may not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in earnings, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is first recognized as gains to the extent that an impairment loss on the same revalued asset was previously charged to earnings. Any excess amount is treated as an increase in the unrealized revaluation increment. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the relevant cash-generating units (“CGUs”) that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the acquisition. A CGU to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually or whenever there is an indication that the CGU may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the CGU becomes less than its carrying amount, the impairment is allocated to first reduce the carrying amount of the goodwill allocated to the CGU and then to the other assets of the CGU pro rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the CGU. A reversal of an impairment loss on goodwill is disallowed. Pension Cost Pension cost under a defined benefit plan is determined by actuarial valuations. Contributions made under a defined contribution plan are recognized as pension cost during the year in which employees render services. Curtailment or settlement gains or losses on the defined benefit plan are recognized as part of the net pension cost for the year. Income Tax The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 22, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires the asset and liability approach to financial accounting and tax reporting. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed quarterly on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets that are not certain to be realized. Income tax expense or benefit is the tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities. If the Company can control the timing of the reversal of a temporary difference between the book value and the tax basis of a long-term equity investment in a foreign subsidiary or joint venture and if the temporary difference is not expected to reverse in the foreseeable future and will, in effect, exist indefinitely, then a deferred tax liability or asset is not recognized. Tax credits for purchase of machinery, equipment and technology research and development expenditures are recognized as reduction of current income tax expense. Adjustments of prior years’ tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current year’s tax provision. - 15 - According to the Income Tax Law, an additional tax at 10% of unappropriated earnings is provided for as income tax in the year the shareholders approve to retain the earnings. Stock-based Compensation Employee stock options granted on or after January 1, 2008 are accounted for under SFAS No. 39, “Accounting for Share-based Payment.” Under the statement, the value of the stock options granted, which is equal to the best available estimate of the number of stock options expected to vest multiplied by the grant-date fair value, is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, with a corresponding adjustment to capital surplus - employee stock options. The estimate is revised if subsequent information indicates that the number of stock options expected to vest differs from previous estimates. Employee stock options granted between January 1, 2004 and December 31, 2007 were accounted for under the interpretations issued by the Accounting Research and Development Foundation (“ARDF”). The Company adopted the intrinsic value method. Treasury Stock Treasury stock is the Company’s own stock acquired according to the Stock Exchange Law. When the Company does not dispose or write off these stocks, their cost is listed as a deduction in stockholders’ equity. The difference is listed as capital surplus - treasury stock when the disposal price is higher than book value. If the price is lower, the difference will be recognized as deduction of capital surplus - treasury stock, but if the capital surplus - treasury stock is insufficient, the shortage is debited to retained earnings. The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 30 “Accounting for Treasury Stocks,” which requires the Company to treat intercompany stockholdings as treasury stock. Revenue Recognition Revenue from sales of goods is recognized when the Company has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods, primarily upon shipment, because the earnings process has been completed and the economic benefits associated with the transaction have been realized or are realizable. Earnings (Loss) Per Share Basic earnings (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing net earnings (loss) attributable to common stock by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. On a diluted basis, both net earnings (loss) and shares outstanding are adjusted to assume the conversion of employee stock options from the date of issuance, and adopt the treasury stock method to calculate the stock warrants’ dilutive potential common shares. However, if the employee stock options contain an anti-dilutive effect, they will be excluded from the earnings (loss) per share calculation. Hedge Accounting Derivatives that are designated and effective as hedging instruments are measured at fair value, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized either in profit or loss, or in stockholders’ equity, depending on the nature of the hedging relationship. - 16 - Hedge accounting recognizes the offsetting effects on profit or loss of changes in the fair values of the hedging instrument and the hedged item as follows: Cash flow hedge: The portion of the gain or loss on the hedging instrument that is determined to be an effective hedge is recognized in stockholders’ equity. The amount recognized in stockholders’ equity is recognized in profit or loss in the same year or years during which the hedged forecast transaction or an asset or liability arising from the hedged forecast transaction affects profit or loss. However, if all or a portion of a loss recognized in stockholders’ equity is not expected to be recovered in the future, the amount that is not expected to be recovered is reclassified into profit or loss. Nonderivative Financial Instruments The recognition and valuation of nonderivative financial assets and liabilities are in accordance with the above accounting policies and generally accepted accounting principles. 3. EFFECTS OF CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES Financial Instruments On January 1, 2011, the Company adopted the newly revised Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 34, “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.” The main revisions included loans and receivable originated by the Company under the scope of SFAS No. 34. This accounting change did not have any effect on the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011. Operating Segments On January 1, 2011, the Company adopted the newly issued SFAS No. 41, “Operating Segments.” The statement requires that segment information be disclosed based on the information about the components of the Company that management uses to make operating decisions. SFAS No. 41 requires identification of operating segments on the basis of internal reports that are regularly reviewed by the Company's chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to the segments and assess their performance. This statement supersedes SFAS No. 20, “Segment Reporting.” For this accounting change, the Company restated the segment information in the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010 to conform to the disclosures as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011. 4.

PENSION PLAN The pension plan under the Labor Pension Act (LPA) is a defined contribution plan. Under the LPA, the rate of the Company’s monthly contributions to employees’ individual pension accounts is at 6% of monthly salaries and wages. The employees’ pension accounts are in the Bureau of Labor Insurance. The related net pension costs were $37,936 thousand for 2011 and $34,177 thousand for 2010. Under the Labor Standards Law, the Company has a defined benefit pension plan covering all eligible employees. The benefits are calculated on the basis of the length of service and average monthly salaries of the six months before retirement. The Company contributes amounts equal to 3% of total monthly salaries and wages to a pension fund administered by the pension fund monitoring committee. The pension fund is deposited in the Bank of Taiwan in the committee’s name. The fair value of the Company’s plan assets was greater than the net periodic pension cost; thus, the Company had stopped contributing to the fund deposited in Bank of Taiwan from December 1, 2010 to November 30, 2011. - 25 - Net pension costs of defined benefit pension plans for 2011 and 2010 were summarized as follows: 2011 2010 Service cost Interest cost Expected return on plan assets Amortization of net loss $ 4,097 3,750 (4,933) 627 $ 4,967 3,785 (4,765) 867 Net pension cost $ 3,541 $ 4,854 Assumptions used in determining the actuarial present value of the projected benefit obligation as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 were summarized as follows: Weighted-average discount rate Expected long-term rate of return on plan assets Assumed rate of increase in future compensation levels 2011 2010 2.00% 2.00% 2.25% 2.00% 2.00% 2.50% The Company has a defined benefit pension plan (the “Plan”) covering all eligible employees. of the Plan as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 was summarized as follows: 2011 Actuarial present value of benefit obligations Vested benefits Nonvested benefit Accumulated benefit obligation Additional benefits based on future salaries Projected benefit obligation Plan assets at fair value Plan assets in excess of projected benefit obligation Unrecognized net loss Prepaid pension cost (reported as other assets - other) $ 10,388 110,583 120,971 40,772 161,743 (248,430) (86,687) (5,040) The status 2010 $ 8,753 123,926 132,679 54,801 187,480 (246,673) (59,193) (35,339) $ (91,727) $ (94,532) 2011 2010 Authorized capital Share (’000) Par value Capital 800,000 $ 10 $ 8,000,000 800,000 $ 10 $ 8,000,000 Issued capital Share (’000) Par value Capital 690,063 $ 10 $ 6,900,634 663,988 $ 10 $ 6,639,888 17. CAPITAL STOCK - 26 - The Company’s paid-in capital as of January 1, 2011 was $6,639,888 thousand. During the year ended December 31, 2010, employee stock warrants were converted into 355,000 common shares at $18.70 per share. As of December 31, 2010, the procedures for registration of 355,000 common shares issued for the execution of employee stock warrant were not completed; thus, the proceeds were reported as advance receipts for common stock. As of January 2011, the procedures for registration of 355,000 common shares issued for the execution of employee stock warrant were completed and converted into 355,000 common shares. As at June 22, 2011, the Company shareholders’ meeting resolved to issue additional capital stock of $257,196 thousand through stock dividend. Thus, as of December 31, 2011, the Company’s paid-in capital had increased to $6,900,634 thousand, divided into 690,063,380 common shares with NT$10 par value. The Company’s paid-in capital as of January 1, 2010 was $6,638,023 thousand. During the year ended December 31, 2010, employee stock warrants were converted into 541,500 common shares at $18.70 per share. As of December 31, 2010, the procedures for registration of 355,000 common shares issued for the execution of employee stock warrant were not completed; thus, the proceeds were reported as advance receipts for common stock. As of December 31, 2010, the Company’s paid-in capital had increased to $6,639,888 thousand, divided into 663,988,765 common shares with NT$10 par value. Earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the weighted average number of shares used in the calculation of earnings per share had been restated for the retroactive effect of the stock dividends issued in 2011. Earnings (loss) per share for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was calculated as follows: 2011 Amount (Numerator) Before After Tax Tax Basic loss per share - for common stock $ (864,944) Shares (Denominator) $ (1,057,342) 687,764,583 Loss Per Share (In Dollars) Before After Tax Tax $ (1.26) $ (1.54) 2010 Amount (Numerator) Before After Tax Tax Basic earnings per share - for common stock Potential common shares with dilutive effect Employee stock warrants Bonus paid to employees $ 1,066,566 Diluted earnings per shares $ 1,066,566 $ $ Shares (Denominator) 952,566 684,495,941 - 48,156 1,843,173 952,566 686,387,270 Earnings Per Share (In Dollars) Before After Tax Tax $ 1.56 $ 1.39 $ 1.55 $ 1.39 Due to net loss in 2011, the diluted earnings per share had not been calculated. The Accounting Research and Development Foundation issued Interpretation 2007-052, which requires companies to recognize bonuses paid to employees, directors and supervisors as compensation expenses beginning January 1, 2008. These bonuses were previously recorded as appropriations from earnings. The Company may decide to distribute bonuses to employees in cash or shares; in this case, the Company should presume that the entire amount of the bonus will be settled in shares, and, if the resulting potential shares have a dilutive effect, these shares should be included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the calculation of diluted earnings per share (EPS). The number of shares is estimated by dividing the entire amount of the bonus by the closing price of the shares at the balance sheet date. The dilutive effect of the potential shares should be included in the calculation of diluted EPS until the stockholders resolve the number of shares to be distributed to employees at their meeting in the following year. - 27 - 18. RETAINED EARNINGS Based on the ROC Company Law and the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, 10% of the Company’s earnings, less tax and any deficit, should be appropriated as legal reserve until this reserve equals to the paid-in capital and as special reserve as regulated by laws or domestic authorities. Unappropriated earnings could be retained for operating needs, if necessary. The remaining balance, if any, should be distributed in the following order: a. Bonuses to employees - 5%, including subsidiaries’ employees, if approved by the board of directors; b. Remuneration to directors and supervisors - 2%; and c. Any remainder, as dividends, bonuses to stockholders. The Company’s Articles of Incorporation also provide that profits of the Company may be distributed by way of cash dividend and/or stock dividend. In the distribution of profits, the ratio for cash dividend shall not exceed 50% of the total distribution. However, according to the capital budget of next year, the Company can make certain adjustment to the dividend policy stated above to raise the ratio of cash dividend up to 100% of the total distribution to stockholders if necessary. The appropriations of earnings for 2010 and 2009 had been approved in the shareholders’ meetings on June 22, 2011 and June 25, 2010, respectively. The appropriations and dividends per share were as follows: Appropriation of Earnings For For Year 2010 Year 2009 Legal reserve Stock dividends Cash dividends $ 95,257 257,196 85,732 $ - Dividends Per Share (NT$) For For Year 2010 Year 2009 $ 0.387 0.129 $ - The Company’s board of directors had proposed and the stockholders had approved the distribution from 2010 earnings. Information on earnings appropriation can be accessed online through the Market Observation Post System of the Taiwan Stock Exchange (http://e-mops.tse.com.tw). The Company’s stockholders approved the board of directors’ proposal to offset $214,278 thousand of the legal reserve and $26,023 thousand of the capital surplus with accumulated deficit in 2009. Information on the offsetting of loss can be accessed online through the Market Observation Post System of the Taiwan Stock Exchange (http://e-mops.tse.com.tw). Due to the net loss and accumulated deficit for the year ended and as of December 31, 2011, the Company did not appropriate bonuses to employees, directors and supervisors. For the year ended December 31, 2010, the accrued bonus to employees was $36,495 thousand, and the accrued remuneration to directors and supervisors was $14,598 thousand. The bonus to employees and remuneration to directors and supervisors represented 5% and 2%, respectively, of net income (net of the bonus and remuneration). Material differences between such estimated amounts and the amounts proposed by the Board of Directors in the following year are adjusted for in the current year. If the actual amounts subsequently resolved by the stockholders differ from the proposed amounts, the differences are recorded in the year of stockholders’ resolution as a change in accounting estimate. If a share bonus is resolved to be distributed to employees, the number of shares is determined by dividing the amount of the share bonus by the closing price (after considering the effect of cash and stock dividends) of the shares of the day immediately preceding the stockholders’ meeting. - 28 - The amounts of the bonus to employees and the bonus to directors and supervisors approved in 2011 were $18,437 thousand and $7,375 thousand and the related amounts accrued in 2010 were $36,495 thousand and $14,598 thousand. The differences had been adjusted in profit and loss for the year ended December 31, 2011. On November 23, 2007, the Company’s board of directors resolved to issue employee stock warrants in accordance with Article 28.3 of the Securities and Exchange Law, which limited the number of warrants for distribution to 4,000,000 units. Each unit has the right to buy one newly issued common share. The exercise price is the closing price of the Company’s common shares at the warrant issuance date. The warrant holder can exercise the right up to 50% of the granted warrant units no earlier than two years from the granted date. After three years from the granted date, warrant holders are eligible to exercise all the warrants owned. As of December 25, 2007, the Company had issued 4,000,000 units of the employee stock warrants to the employees at the exercise price of $21.55 per unit. The exercise price of these warrants mentioned above had been retroactively restated to $18.00 dollars per share for the distribution of stock dividends issued over the years. The employee stock warrants issued by the Company were exercised at market value; thus, there was no intrinsic value or compensation cost recognized in 2011 and 2010. The Company’s employee stock warrants and related information for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 were summarized as follows: 2011 Weightedaverage Exercise Price (Dollars) Units (Thousands) Outstanding, beginning of year Forfeited Exercised Adjustment from ownership dilution 2,786.5 (211.0) - Outstanding, end of year 2,575.5 Exercisable, end of year 2,575.5 2010 Units (Thousand) $ 18.70 - - (0.70) $ 18.00 3,697.0 (369.0) (541.5) 2,786.5 Weightedaverage Exercise Price (Dollars) $ 18.70 $ 18.70 2,786.5 The information on the Company’s outstanding stock warrants as of December 31, 2011 was as follows: Range of Exercise Price (Dollars) $18.70-$18.00 Outstanding Stock Warrants WeightedWeightedaverage average Expected Exercise Units Remaining Price (Thousands) Years (In Dollars) 2,575.5 0.98 - 29 - $18.00 Exercisable Stock Warrants Weightedaverage Exercise Units Price (Thousands) (In Dollars) 2,575.5 $18.00 19.

Credit risk The counterparties to the contracts above are all commercial or investment banks or broker with high credit ratings; thus, credit risks are considered insignificant. b. Market price risk The Company measured market price risk of financial instruments for trading purposes by market value, and set up the loss limitations according to the acceptable risk. The gain or loss of financial instruments for non-trading purposes derived from the fluctuation of interest rate or exchange rate is to be offset by the loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the risk being hedged and thus, the market risk is insignificant. c. Liquidity risk, cash flow risk and forecasted cash flow risk The Company has the ability to meet its financial obligations; thus, liquidity risks virtually do not exist. Forward rates for forward contracts are fixed; thus, cash flow risks are insignificant. In addition, the possibility that the Company’s forward exchange contracts cannot be sold at a reasonable price in the market is remote; thus, liquidity risk is low. - 38 - d. The type, purpose and strategy of the derivative financial instruments Type Interest rate swap Purpose Strategy Hedging (See below) The Company signed the rate exchange contract with bank.

For those instruments with no quoted market prices, their fair values are determined using valuation techniques incorporating estimates and assumptions consistent with those generally used by other market participants to price financial instruments. Fair values of derivatives are based on their quoted prices in an active market. For those derivatives with no quoted market prices, their fair values are determined using valuation techniques incorporating estimates and assumptions consistent with those generally used by other market participants to price financial instruments. 3) Long-term equity investment at equity method do not have quoted prices in an active market and entail an unreasonably high cost to obtain verifiable fair value, thus the fair value was based on the net price per share in the financial report verified and certified by an independent accountant issued as at December 31, 2011 and 2010. 4) Financial assets carried at cost are investments in unquoted shares, which have no quoted prices in an active market and entail an unreasonably high cost to obtain verifiable fair values. Therefore, no fair value is presented. h.
