Below is the English version of our MOPS filings on February 4, 2016 Regulation: Published pursuant to Article 4 Paragraph 38 of the Taiwan Stock Exchange’s Operating Procedures for the Publication of Material Information by Listed Companies

 

 

SEQ_NO: 1

 

Date of announcement: 2016/02/04

 

Time of announcement: 19:00:39

 

Subject: ASE announces to extend the period of public tender offer of SPIL's common shares

 

Date of events: 2016/02/04

 

To which item it meets: paragraph 38

 

Statement:

 

1. Date of receipt of the SFB approval letter: 2015/12/22

 

2. Name of the public companies whose securities were originally to be acquired: Siliconware Precision Industries Co., Ltd.

 

3. Type of securities that were originally to be acquired: Common shares

 

4. Volume of securities originally to be acquired: Intended amount of acquisition is 770,000,000 shares (including issued and outstanding common shares represented by the American depositary shares), accounting for approximately 24.71% of total amount of the issued common shares by the acquired company, as listed on the Ministry of Economic Affairs of Business Registration Publicity and Inquiry System on the last date of change.

 

In order to comply with Rule 14e-1(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company hereby announces that as of February 3, 2016, the amount of common shares that have been validly tendered and not withdrawn is 89,774,676 shares (including those are represented by the American depositary shares), which represents approximately 2.9% of the issued and outstanding share capital of SPIL.

 

5. Price of the securities originally to be acquired: NT$ 55 (cash)/share

 

6. Originally scheduled public tender offer period: 9:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on business day (TW time), December 29th, 2015 to February 16th, 2016.

 

7. Reason for the SFB approval of suspension of the public tender offer: As noted in the Public Tender Offer Prospectus, one of the conditions for this public tender offer is that the Fair Trade Commission (the ”FTC”) does not prohibit the combination between the public purchaser and Siliconware Precision Industries Co., Ltd. (”SPIL”). The public purchaser has reported to the FTC regarding the business combination related to this public tender offer on December 25th, 2015 (the same hereinafter), and informed by the letter of notice from the FTC:”Regarding the application filed for combination between ASE and SPIL, the application has been filed with the FTC completely on February 2, 2016, Unless receiving written notice from the FTC requiring correction, shortening or extension, prohibition of combination or rejection, the combination shall be conducted in accordance with reported issues as of March 3, 2016”, therefore the public purchaser reasonably anticipates that the FTC may allow the combination between the public purchaser and SPIL on March 3, 2016 as the earliest date.The public purchaser hereby reported to the Financial Supervisory Commission to extend the period of public tender offer for 30 days on February 4, 2016, pursuant to relevant regulation. Upon extension, the period of this public tender offer shall end at 3:30 p.m. on March 17th, 2016. Whereas, other conditions of this public tender offer remain unchanged, and the settlement day is still within 5 business days after the expiration of the extended period (including the 5th business day). Hereby certify.

8. Any other matters that need to be specified: The FTC is still reviewing the combination between the public purchaser and SPIL currently, and has not determined whether to prohibit such combination. Provided that the public purchaser receives the written notification from the FTC requiring correction, extension, prohibition of combination or rejection prior to the expiration of the period of public tender offer, which leads to the failure to receive the confirmation from the FTC of non-prohibition on the combination prior to and including March 17th, 2016, this public tender offer hereby fails with conditions uncompleted. The public purchaser shall release relevant announcement regarding the completion or incompletion of the conditions of this public tender offer in accordance with relevant law.

 

All of the other terms and conditions of the tender offers remain unchanged. The tender offers are conditioned upon (i) there being validly tendered in accordance with the terms of the ROC Offer, and not withdrawn prior to the expiration of the ROC Offer, 155,818,056 Common Shares, not including those tendered into the U.S. Offer or those represented by ADSs (representing approximately least 5% of the issued and outstanding share capital of SPIL) and (ii) the receipt of antitrust approval from the Taiwan Fair Trade Commission. Upon the satisfaction of the aforementioned two conditions, ASE will purchase the 770,000,000 Common Shares at NT$55 per Common Share and NT$275 per ADS cash consideration payable in the tender offers in accordance with the relevant laws and regulations.
