Independent Auditors' Report

To the Shareholders and the Board of Management of Possehl Electronics N.V.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Possehl
Electronics N.V. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2000 and 2001 and the
related consolidated statement of operations, cash flows, shareholders' equity
and accumulated other comprehensive income, for each of the years in the
three-year period ended December 31, 2001. These consolidated financial
statements are the responsibility of the management of Possehl Electronics N.V.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America and The Netherlands. Those 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, based on our audit, the consolidated financial statements
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Possehl Electronics N.V. and subsidiaries at December 31, 2000 and
2001 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2001 in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note 1, the Company changed its method of accounting for
depreciation on stamping tools in 2001.

(1) In December 2001 the Company changed its depreciation method for stamping
    tools, as described in the notes to property, plant and equipment. The
    cumulative effect on previous years depreciation included in 2001 is EUR
    4,082. The 1999 and 2000 net income on a pro forma basis would have been EUR
    7,928 and EUR 19,725, respectively. For this we calculated the actual
    accumulated depreciation for 1999 and 2000 on a pro-rata basis. The 2001
    effect in depreciation is EUR 1,697.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

1     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

GENERAL

On May 30, 1997, L. Possehl & Co. mbH ("Possehl"), BE Semiconductor Industries
N.V. ("BESI") and Mr Ho Hung Tak ("Mr Ho") contributed all of their ownership
interests relating to the production and plating of leadframes and connectors to
Possehl BESI Electronics N.V. ("PBE N.V.") and its consolidated subsidiaries,
(collectively, the "Company"). The ownership of the Company by Possehl, BESI and
Mr Ho was 50.1%, 30.0% and 19.9%, respectively. The Board of Directors of the
Company consisted of executive officers of each of the founding members of the
Company, of which each one was entitled to cast one vote.

On November 15, 2001, BESI sold its 30% equity interest in PBE N.V. to Possehl.
As a consequence, Possehl increased its interest in PBE N.V. from 50.1% to
80.1%. Mr. R.W. Blickman resigned from the Board of Directors as per November
15, 2001. Consequently, the Board of Directors of the Company consists of
executive officers of each of the two shareholders of the Company, of which each
one is entitled to cast one vote.

Subsequent to the sale of the 30% interest in PBE, BESI no longer had any
representation on the Board of Directors of PBE nor any other rights or
responsibilities regarding PBE.

At December 19, 2001 the name of the Company was changed to Possehl Electronics
N.V. ("PE N.V. or the Company"). Furthermore it was agreed as per November 15,
2001 to adjust the names of the individual subsidiaries within six months after
the transaction date. As per December 31, 2001 no formal name changes for
subsidiaries occurred.

The management of the Company shall adopt resolutions by an absolute majority of
the total number of votes to be cast, except for certain significant resolutions
which must be adopted by unanimity. Furthermore, these significant resolutions
require prior approval of the General Meeting of Shareholders.

As set forth in the Articles of Association and Shareholders Agreement of the
Company, every share of the Company entitles the holder thereof to cast one vote
in the General Meeting of Shareholders. Resolutions voted on at the General
Meeting of Shareholders require a 75% majority of the votes cast for approval.

Significant resolutions which require prior approval of the shareholders at the
General Meeting of Shareholders include:

-     Appointment of Management Board Members of the Company;

-     Appointment of persons with power to represent the Company;

-     Entering into credit agreements in excess of EUR 0.5 million;

-     Approval of annual operating and capital expenditure budgets;

-     Proposing a legal merger;

-     Entering into or terminating a direct or indirect continuing cooperation
      with another company or legal person.

On June 30, 1999, Possehl, BESI and Mr. Ho contributed their ownership interest
in Possehl Electronic Hong Kong Ltd. ("PEH") to the Company in return for a
total of 3,536,872 newly issued shares in the Company. The ownership interest of
PEH were substantially the same as the ownership interests of the Company.

PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the
United States of America. The accompanying consolidated financial statements are
stated in euro ("EUR"). The accompanying consolidated financial statements are,
solely for the convenience of the reader, translated into US dollars ("USD")
using the Noon Buying Rate in effect on December 31, 2001 (EUR 1 = USD 0.8901).
Such translations should not be construed as representations that the EUR
amounts could be converted into US dollars at that or any other date. All EUR
and US dollar amounts are expressed in thousands.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of its
subsidiaries, including those of PEH. Prior to the contribution of PEH on June
30, 1999, PEH was fully controlled by the Company. From May 30, 1997 through
June 30, 1999 the management of PEH was identical to that of the Company and the
management of the Company exerted control over PEH. From the date of
incorporation of the Company on May 30, 1997, the financial statements of PEH
have been consolidated with PBE as if it were a wholly owned subsidiary;
therefore, the contribution of PEH had no effect on the principles of
consolidation.

March 31, 2000 the Company and Sumitomo Metal Mining Asia Pacific Pte.
Ltd., Singapore (SMMAP) dissolved their common participations in the
following companies:

-     Possehl Sumiko Electronics Singapore Pte. Ltd. (PBE share 62.5%)

-     Possehl Electronics Taiwan Ltd. (PBE share 75%)

-     Sumiko Electronics Taiwan Ltd. (PBE share 14.8%)

-     WSP Electro Materials Corporation (PBE share 6%)

PBE acquired the remaining shares in Possehl Sumiko Electronics
Singapore Pte. Ltd. and sold its shares in Possehl Electronics Taiwan
Ltd., Sumiko Electronics Taiwan Ltd. and WSP Electro Materials
Corporation. After the dissolution it was decided to rename the fully
acquired company into Possehl BESI Singapore Pte. Ltd.

As of December 31, 2001 the following subsidiaries and affiliated companies are
included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements:

The balance sheets of the Company's foreign subsidiaries are translated at the
year-end exchange rate and the income statements of the foreign subsidiaries are
translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the period.
Translation differences arising from the consolidation of the financial
statements of foreign subsidiaries are recorded directly to shareholders'
equity.

All significant intercompany profits, transactions and balances have been
eliminated in consolidation.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Effective January 1, 2001, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activity,"
which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for
hedging activities. All derivatives, whether or not designated in hedging
relationships, are required to be recorded on the balance sheets at fair value.
If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair
value of the derivative and of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk
are recognized in earnings. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow
hedge, the effective portions of changes in the fair value of the derivative are
recorded in other comprehensive income and are recognized in the statements of
income when the hedged item affects earnings. Ineffective portions of changes in
the fair value of cash flow hedges are recognized in earnings. The impact of
adopting SFAS 133 was not material.

The Company uses forward exchange contracts to hedge certain firm commitments
denominated in foreign currencies. The terms of the currency instruments used
are generally consistent with the timing of the committed transactions being
hedged. The purpose of the Company's foreign currency management activity is to
protect the Company from the risk that eventual cash flows from foreign currency
denominated transactions may be adversely affected by changes in exchange rates.
The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or
speculative purposes.

FOREIGN CURRENCY

Foreign currency transactions are recorded at the exchange rate of the date of
origin, or at a forward contract rate if hedged through a related forward
exchange contract. Realized and unrealized exchange rate gains and losses are
recorded in the statement of operations. Assets and liabilities denominated in
foreign currencies are translated at year-end exchange rates unless a related or
matching forward exchange contract or currency swap has been entered into, in
which event the rate specified in the contract is used. Exchange rate
differences on assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency that are
not covered by hedging arrangements are recorded in the statement of operations.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with a maturity
date at acquisition of three months or less.

INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or
market. Cost includes net prices paid for materials purchased, charges for
freight and custom duties, production labor costs and factory overhead. Precious
metals are valued at the market price at the balance sheet date. Variances in
market price from balance sheet date to balance sheet date are recorded in gross
profit as gains or losses.


                                      F-9
<PAGE>
PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method, based on the
following estimated useful lives.

<TABLE>

CATEGORY                                                    ASSIGNED USEFUL LIFE

<S>                                                         <C>
Land and buildings                                                 20 - 60 years
Leasehold improvements (1)                                          5 - 10 years
Machinery and equipment                                              2 - 5 years
Office furniture and equipment                                       3 - 5 years
</TABLE>

(1)   Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease term or
      economic life of the asset.

In 2001 the Company revised its depreciation method for stamping tools to focus
appropriate risk management. The new method implies depreciation on units sold
with the condition that it should not be less than the straight-line method of
depreciation of 4 years.

LEASES

Assets acquired under capital leases are included in the balance sheet at the
present value of the minimum future lease payments and are depreciated over the
shorter of the lease term and their useful lives. A corresponding liability is
recorded at the inception of the capital lease and the interest element of
capital leases is charged to interest expense.

INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATED COMPANIES

Investments in unconsolidated affiliated companies, in which the Company does
not have significant influence, are valued at cost or market value, if less. An
estimated realizable value is used in case there is no readily identifiable
market value.

INCOME TAXES

The Company applies Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 109
"Accounting for Income Taxes", which requires the asset and liability method of
accounting for taxes. Under the asset and liability method of SFAS 109, deferred
tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating
loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years which these temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the amount that is
more likely than not to be realized.

RECOGNITION OF REVENUES

The Company's practice is to recognize revenues from sales based on invoiced
value of goods supplied to customers, less discounts and sales returns.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

Costs relating to research and development are charged to operating income as
incurred.

PENSION COMMITMENTS

Pension plans are funded with insurance companies based on defined contribution
plans, except for the pension plan of the Company's German subsidiary. The
payments of annual premiums are charged against earnings. This subsidiary has a
defined pension benefit plan for a limited number of employees. The pension
commitments have been calculated according to the actuarial method.


                                      F-10
<PAGE>
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

A relatively small number of customers account for a significant percentage of
the Company's net sales. The loss of a major customer or any reduction in orders
by such customers, including reductions due to market or competitive conditions,
would have an adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations. The Company's future success will depend in part upon its
ability to obtain orders from new customers, as well as the financial condition
and success of its customers and the general economy.

The Company's customers consist of semiconductor manufacturers located
throughout the world. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its
customers' financial condition and generally requires no collateral to secure
accounts receivable. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts
based on an assessment of the collectibility of such accounts.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance
sheet dates and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reported
periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In July 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 141, "Business combinations", and
Statement No. 142, "Goodwill and other intangible assets". SFAS No. 141 requires
that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations
initiated after June 30, 2001 as well as all purchase method business
combinations completed after June 30, 2001. Statement No. 141 also specifies
criteria intangible assets acquired in a purchase method business combination
must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill, noting that any
purchase price allocable to an assembled workforce may not be accounted for
separately. Statement No. 142 will require that goodwill and intangible assets
with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead tested for
impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of Statement No.
142. SFAS No. 142 will also require that intangible assets with definite useful
lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their
estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS
No. 121, "Accounting for the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived
assets to be disposed of".

The Company adopted the provisions of Statement No. 141 as at July 1, 2001 and
Statement No. 142 as at January 1, 2002. Any goodwill and any intangible asset
determined to have an indefinite useful life that are acquired in a purchase
business combination completed after June 30, 2001 will not be amortized, but
will continue to be evaluated for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 142
requirements. Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in business combinations
completed before July 1, 2001 continued to be amortized prior to January 1,
2002.

Statement No. 141 requires, that a company evaluates its existing intangible
assets and goodwill that were acquired in a prior purchase business combination,
and makes any necessary reclassifications in order to conform with the new
criteria in Statement No. 141 for recognition apart from goodwill. The Company
will reassess the useful lives and residual values of all intangible assets
acquired in purchase business combinations, and make any necessary amortization
period adjustments by the end of the first interim period after adoption. In
addition, to the extent an intangible asset is identified as having an
indefinite useful life, it is required to test the intangible asset for
impairment in accordance with the provisions of Statement No. 142 within the
first interim period. Any impairment loss will be measured as of the date of
adoption and recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting
principle in the first interim period.


                                      F-11
<PAGE>
In connection with the transitional goodwill impairment evaluation, Statement
No. 142 will require to perform an assessment of whether there is an indication
that goodwill, and equity-method goodwill, is impaired as of the date of
adoption. To accomplish this a company must identify its reporting units and
determine the carrying value of each reporting unit by assigning the assets and
liabilities, including the existing goodwill and intangible assets, to those
reporting units as of the date of adoption. The company then has up to six
months from the date of adoption to determine the fair value of each reporting
unit and compare it to the reporting unit's carrying amount. To the extent a
reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds its fair value, an indication exists
that the reporting unit's goodwill may be impaired and the second step of the
transitional impairment test must be performed. In the second step, the implied
fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill, determined by allocating the
reporting unit's fair value to all of its assets (recognized and unrecognized)
and liabilities in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation in accordance
with Statement No. 141, must be compared to its carrying amount, both of which
would be measured as of the date of adoption. This second step is required to be
completed as soon as possible, but no later than the end of the year of
adoption. Any transitional impairment loss will be recognized as the cumulative
effect of a change in accounting principle in the financial statements.

Finally, any unamortized negative goodwill and negative equity-method goodwill
existing at the date Statement No. 142 is adopted, must be written off as the
cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle.

As of December 31, 2001, the Company has unamortized goodwill in the amount of
nil, unamortized indentifiable intangible assets in the amount of nil, and no
unamortized negative goodwill, all of which will be subject to the transition
provisions of Statements No. 141 and No. 142. Amortization expense related to
goodwill was nil for the year ended December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001,
respectively.

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for asset retirement
obligations". SFAS No. 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for
obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the
associated retirement costs. It requires that the fair value of a liability for
an asset retirement obligation is realized in the period in which it is incurred
if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The Company is currently
assessing SFAS No. 143 and the impact that adoption, in 2003, will have on the
consolidated financial statements.

In August 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
144, "Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed
of", and APB Opinion No. 30 "Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the
Effects of a Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and
Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions. SFAS No. 144 establishes a
single accounting model for the impairment of long-lived assets and broadens the
presentation of discontinued operations to include more disposal transactions.
SFAS No. 144 is effective for 2002 and adoption will not have a material impact
on our consolidated financial statements.

The deferred tax asset for operating loss carry forwards is related to the
French, Dutch, German, Hong Kong and Malaysian operations.

PBE N.V. consolidated its Dutch subsidiary for tax purposes effective January 1,
1998. Under applicable Dutch tax law, the Company's Dutch related net operating
losses can be carried back for three years and carried forward without
limitation in duration. The Company has determined that it is more likely than
not that tax losses will not be realized through future fiscal earnings. A 100%
valuation allowance has therefore been recorded.

Under applicable German tax law, the Company's German related net operating
losses can be carried-forward without limitation in duration. The Company has
determined that it is more likely than not that tax losses will not be realized
through future fiscal earnings. A 100% valuation allowance has therefore been
recorded.

Effective 1998, the Hong Kong Inland Revenue Ordinance has effected a new tax
legislation. This legislation allows an immediate 100% tax deduction for capital
expenditures made to acquire manufacturing plant, machinery or computers. As a
result, the Hong Kong operation recorded a fiscal loss in 1998, which can be
carried forward without limitation in duration. On the deferred tax portion,
however, the tax benefit from the tax losses is partly offset by the deferred
tax liabilities arising from the 100% write-off for tax purpose compared to
company depreciation rates. As far as a deferred tax asset remains after
netting, the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that tax
losses will not be realized through future fiscal earnings. A 100% valuation
allowance has therefore been recorded for net deferred tax assets.

The net change in valuation allowance was a (decrease) increase of EUR 772, (EUR
531) and EUR 4,507 for the years ended December 31, 1999, 2000 and 2001,
respectively.

Leasehold land in Hong Kong, China and Singapore, included in property, plant
and equipment, is being depreciated over a period of 50 years in Hong Kong and
China and 60 years in Singapore due to the fact that land use right will expire
in these countries in 2047 and 2051, respectively.

The Company has obligations under various capital and operating leases,
primarily for equipment. Assets under capital leases included in property, plant
and equipment are as follows:

11    SUBORDINATED LOAN FROM SHAREHOLDER

Possehl      12,313      37,738
</TABLE>

The first subordinated loan from Possehl was granted to the Company on July 20,
1999 and is subordinated to all senior liabilities of the Company. Possehl
postponed full repayment of the first subordinated loan to the maturity date of
the loan, being July 2004.

The interest rate is based on EURIBOR plus 2.00%. The effective interest rate at
December 31, 2001 was 5.324%.

The Company has granted Possehl warrants exercisable in the event of:

-     a sale of more than 25% of the outstanding share capital;

-     a sale of more than 35% of the Company's business or assets; or

-     on any public offering.

Under the terms of the warrants, the Company will issue new shares to be
acquired by the holder of the warrants, which will give the holder of the
warrants a (combined) share of 5.0% of the ordinary share capital of the
Company, for which a total purchase price of EUR 9.1 million will be paid, thus
valuing the equity of the Company at EUR 181.5 million.


                                      F-19
<PAGE>


The holder of the warrants will have the right to sell all shares acquired
through exercise of the warrants, along with any sale of shares by the
shareholders of the Company and/or any public offering. The warrants will have a
life of 10 years.

Upon repayment of the loan in full the Company may cancel the warrants in return
for a cash payment of EUR 2.3 million. A public offering or sale of a
substantial part of the Company's business within a year after such early
cancellation of the warrants will prompt an additional payment to the holder of
the warrant. This payment will be equal to 5% of the positive difference between
the implied equity valuation upon a public offering of equity and the original
EUR 181.5 million equity value minus EUR 2.3 million.

After five years the holder of the warrants will have the right to sell the
warrants to the Company for a price of EUR 1.4 million.

The subordinated debt includes covenants requiring the Company to maintain
certain financial ratios. The Company was not in compliance with all applicable
covenants at December 31, 2001, however Possehl granted the Company a waiver
until January 2003 for any contractual default of financial covenants.

On December 10, 2001 Possehl granted a second subordinated loan of EUR 25
million to the Company. This loan is subordinated in claim on assets to the
other debts, and repayable only after other debts such as to Deutsche Bank AG,
Dresdner Bank AG, HSBC Trinkaus & Burkhardt KGaA, ING Bank N.V. or F. van
Lanschot Bankiers N.V. with a higher ranking claim have been repaid. Repayment
will take place in one amount on December 31, 2004 latest.

The loan is subject to an interest charge of 2.5% in addition to 3-months
EURIBOR. The effective interest rate at December 31, 2001 was 5.839%.

The movement in the balance sheet value of the first subordinated loan is as

calculation was 9.41%.

The interest expense in 1999, 2000 and 2001 was EUR 45, EUR 365 and EUR 425,
respectively.

Warrants

The OID of the warrants at November 9, 1999 calculated using the minimum value
method amounts to EUR 1,710 and is classified in other long-term liabilities.
The Company periodically revalues the warrants to fair market.

Pension plans

The accrued pension obligation has been restated to current liabilities, and
more in specific to accrued liabilities. The German subsidiary will cease its
operations in 2002. Therefore the benefit obligation has become a short-term
obligation.

13    RESTRUCTURING

In the second quarter of 2001 the Board of Directors decided to restructure the
Company in order to adjust the organization to changed market conditions. It was
decided to stop the production of leadframes in Europe and Hong Kong, whereby 4
production facilities were planned to be sold or shut down by the end of 2001.

The necessary provisions for receivables, obsolete stock, impairment of fixed
assets, termination benefits and estimated relocation costs were recorded per
June 30, 2001 based on judgement of management.

After BESI sold its 30% equity interest in the Company to Possehl, the new Board
of Directors revised its decision concerning the production facilities in France
and The Netherlands. It has been decided not to close these production
facilities.

Severance

The provision for the reduction in workforce recorded by the Company as per June
30, 2001, includes severance and other benefits for 353 employees, of which 108
are related to the production facilities in France and The Netherlands.
Additionally, in the second half of 2001 the Company recorded a provision for a
further reduction of 63 employees at the German subsidiary. The number of
employees actually terminated as part of the restructuring is 308, of which 252
will leave the Company early 2002 due to formal procedures.


14   FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Due to the international scope of the Company's operations, the Company is
exposed to the risk of adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. The
Company is primarily exposed to fluctuations in the value of the Singapore
dollar, Hong Kong dollar, Malaysian ringgit and EUR against the US dollar, since
approximately 60% of the Company's sales are denominated in US dollar.

The Company's policy has been to hedge only foreign currency exposures resulting
from material contracts. PE has not hedged its currency exposure related to
intercompany payables and external financing of subsidiaries.

The Company has exposure to credit risk to the extent that the counterparty to
the transaction fails to perform according to the terms of the contract. The
amount of such credit risk, measured as the fair value of the forward foreign
currency exchange contract that is in a positive fair value position, was EUR 74
and EUR 21 at December 31, 2000 and 2001 respectively. The Company believes that
the risk of significant loss from credit risk is remote because it deals with
creditworthy financial institutions. The Company does not typically demand
collateral from the counterparties. The cumulative fair value of the contract is
not considered material to these financial statements.
