Effective July 31, 2014, the Company’s Korean subsidiary, MagnaChip Semiconductor, Ltd. (“MagnaChip Korea”), entered into an employment separation agreement (the “Separation Agreement”) with Sang Park, the Company’s former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Pursuant to the terms of the Separation Agreement, Mr. Park resigned his employment with MagnaChip Korea and all affiliates as of July 31, 2014, and Mr. Park will be entitled to receive: (i) severance payments equal to twelve months his current base salary (an aggregate of US$647,220), payable in equal monthly installments, (ii) continuation of housing support and health benefits for twelve months, (iii) accrued tax equalization benefits for amounts earned up to and including the effective date of the Separation Agreement under the terms of Mr. Park’s original service agreement with MagnaChip Korea (excluding all amounts paid or payable under the Separation Agreement), and (iv) acceleration of outstanding and unvested employee stock options held by Mr. Park at the effective date of the Separation Agreement, with all stock options then held by Mr. Park to be exercisable up to twelve months following the effective date of the Separation Agreement. The Separation Agreement also contains an obligation by Mr. Park to cooperate with the Company at the request of the Company’s Board of Directors and its Audit Committee in connection with the management transition, internal review and restatement of its financial statements and as otherwise may be requested by the Company, and provides for hourly consulting payments to Mr. Park for such cooperation services at his then-current hourly rate based on his base salary at the Company as of the effective date of the Separation Agreement or a subsequent employer during the term of the Separation Agreement, subject to an aggregate maximum amount. The Separation Agreement also contains a release of Korean law claims by Mr. Park and a confidentiality agreement.
