amortization of intangible assets; and amortization of debt issuance cost. EBITDA is a key financial measure used by our senior management to internally evaluate the performance of our business and for other required or discretionary purposes.
Specifically, our significant capital assets are in different stages of depreciation, and because we do not have separate operating divisions, our senior management uses EBITDA internally to measure the performance of these assets on a comparable

operating performance and those of our competitors, who follow different accounting policies. For example, depreciation on most of our equipment is made based on a four-year useful life while most of our competitors use different depreciation
schedules from our own. EBITDA is not a measure determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to operating income, cash flows from operating activities or net income, as determined in accordance with U.S.
GAAP. Our calculation of EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA is as follows:

##### Table of Contents

Exchange Rates

The table below sets forth, for the periods and dates indicated, information concerning the noon buying rate for Korean Won, expressed in Korean Won per one U.S. dollar. The noon buying rate is the rate in
New York City for cable transfers in foreign currencies as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Unless otherwise stated, translations of Korean Won amounts into U.S. dollars in this annual report were made at the
noon buying rate in effect on December 30, 2005, which was (Won)1,010.0 to US$1.00. We do not intend to imply that the Korean Won or U.S. dollar amounts referred to herein could have been or could be converted into U.S. dollars or Korean Won,
as the case may be, at any particular rate, or at all. On June 19, 2006, the noon buying rate was (Won)960.9 = US$1.00.

Fluctuation in the
exchange rate between the Korean Won and the U.S. dollar will affect the amount of U.S. dollars received in respect of cash dividends or other distributions paid in Korean Won by us on, and the Korean Won proceeds received from any sales of, our
common stock.

Risks Relating to Our Industry

We operate in a highly competitive environment and we may not be able to sustain our current market position.

The TFT-LCD industry is highly competitive. We have experienced pressure on the prices and margins of our major products due largely to additional industry capacity from panel makers in Korea, Taiwan, China and Japan.
Our main competitors in the industry include Samsung Electronics, BOE-Hydis, AU Optronics, Chi Mei Optoelectronics, Chunghwa Picture Tubes, HannStar, Quanta Display, SVA-NEC, BOE-OT, Sharp and Hitachi. Some of our competitors may currently, or at
some point in the future, have greater financial, sales and marketing, manufacturing, research and development or technological resources than we do. In addition, our competitors may be able to manufacture panels on a larger scale or with greater
cost efficiencies than we do and we anticipate increases in production capacity in the near future by other TFT-LCD manufacturers. Any price erosion resulting from strong global competition or additional industry capacity may materially adversely
affect our financial condition and results of operations.

We and our competitors each seek to establish our own products as the industry
standards. For example, in the growing large-sized television panel market, we currently manufacture 32-inch, 37-inch, 42-inch and 47-inch television panels. Other TFT-LCD manufacturers produce competitive large-sized television panels in slightly
different dimensions. If our competitors panels become the standard market size, we may lose market share, which may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Our ability to compete successfully also depends on factors both within and outside our control, including product pricing, performance and reliability,
successful and timely investment and product development, success or failure of our end-brand customers in marketing their brands and products, component and raw material supply costs, and general economic and industry conditions. We cannot provide
assurance that we will be able to compete successfully with our competitors on these fronts and, as a result, we may be unable to sustain our current market position.

Our industry is subject to cyclical fluctuations, including recurring periods of capacity increases, that may adversely affect our operating results.

TFT-LCD manufacturers are vulnerable to cyclical market conditions. Intense competition and demand growth expectations may result in panel manufacturers
investing in manufacturing capacity on similar schedules, resulting in a surge in capacity when production is ramped up at new fabrication facilities. During such surges in capacity growth, our customers can exert and have exerted strong downward
pricing pressure, resulting in sharp declines in average selling prices and significant fluctuations in our gross margins. Conversely, demand surges and fluctuations in the supply chain can lead to price increases. For example, the overall average
selling price of our display panels, including small panel applications, decreased by 28.4% from 2002 to 2003, by 29.6% from 2003 to 2004 and by 36.0% from 2004 to 2005.

Our gross margins have also fluctuated from period to period, from 22.3% in 2003 to 25.0% in 2004 to 10.0% in 2005. Principal factors affecting our gross margins include our ability to maintain or increase unit sales
volume and market share, minimize the impact of fluctuations in prices and foreign exchange rates and the supply and demand for principal components and raw materials, reduce unit manufacturing costs and introduce new products with higher margins in
a timely manner. We anticipate continued capacity expansion in the TFT-LCD industry due to scheduled ramp up of new fabrication facilities, and any large increases in capacity that this may create may further drive down the average selling prices of
our panels, which would affect our gross margins. Any decline in prices may be further compounded by a seasonal weakening in demand growth for personal computer products, consumer electronics products and our other application products. We cannot
assure you that any future downturns resulting from any large increases in capacity or other factors affecting the industry would not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

##### Table of Contents

We may experience declines in the average selling prices of our display panels irrespective of cyclical
fluctuations in the industry.

The average selling prices of our display panels have declined in general and are expected to
continually decline with time irrespective of industry-wide fluctuations as a result of, among other factors, technology advances and cost reductions. Although we may be able to take advantage of the higher selling prices typically associated with
new products and technologies, we cannot provide assurance that we can maintain these prices in the face of market competition. For example, our gross margin declined from 25.0% in 2004 to 10.0% in 2005. If we are unable to effectively anticipate
and counter the price erosion that accompanies our products, or if we are unable to reduce our manufacturing costs, our profit margins will be negatively affected.

Our operating results fluctuate from period to period, so you should not rely on period-to-period comparisons to predict our future performance.

The TFT-LCD industry is affected by market conditions that are often outside the control of manufacturers. Our results of operations may fluctuate significantly from period to period due to a number of factors,
including seasonal variations in consumer demand, capacity ramp up by competitors, industry-wide technological changes, the loss of a key customer and the postponement, rescheduling or cancellation of large orders by a key customer. As a result of
these factors and other risks discussed in this section, you should not rely on period-to-period comparisons to predict our future performance.

Risks
Relating to Our Company

Our financial condition may be adversely affected if we cannot introduce new products to adapt to rapidly evolving
customer needs on a timely basis.

New products are developed in anticipation of future demand. Our success will depend greatly on
our ability to respond quickly to emerging customer requirements and to develop new products in anticipation of future demand. Any delay in our development of commercially successful products with reliable quality and advanced features may adversely
affect our business.

Success of a new product also depends on other factors such as close cooperation with our customers to gain insights
into their product needs and to understand general trends in the market. When developing new products, we often work with equipment suppliers to design equipment that will make our production processes for such new products more efficient. If we are
unable to work together with our customers and equipment suppliers, or to sufficiently understand their respective needs and capabilities, we may not be able to introduce new products in a timely manner, which may have a material adverse effect on
our financial situation.

We plan to continue to expand our operations to meet the growing demand for new applications in consumer
electronics and other markets. Because these products, such as televisions, mobile phones and personal digital assistants are expected to be marketed to a diverse group of end users with different specifications, functions and prices, we have
developed different sales and marketing strategies to promote our panels for these products. We cannot provide assurance that our expansion strategy for these panels will be successful.

Problems with product quality, including defects, in our TFT-LCD panels could result in a decrease in customers and sales, unexpected expenses and loss of market share.

Our products are manufactured using advanced and often new technology and must meet stringent quality requirements. Products manufactured using advanced
and new technology such as ours may contain undetected errors or defects, especially when first introduced. For example, our TFT-LCD panels may contain defects that are not detected until after they are shipped or are installed because we cannot
test for all possible scenarios.



8

##### Table of Contents

These defects could cause us to incur significant re-designing costs, divert the attention of our technology personnel from product development efforts and
significantly affect our customer relations and business reputation. If we deliver TFT-LCD panels with errors or defects, or if there is a perception that our TFT-LCD panels contain errors or defects, our credibility and the market acceptance and
sales of our products could be harmed.

Future product failures could cause us to incur substantial expense to repair or replace defective
products. Furthermore, widespread product failures may damage our market reputation and reduce our market share and cause our sales to decline.

We
sell our products to a select group of key customers who may no longer rely on us as a strategic supplier of TFT-LCD products, and any significant decrease in their order levels will negatively affect our financial condition and results of
operations.

A substantial portion of our sales is attributable to a limited group of end-brand customers and their designated
system integrators. Sales attributed to our end-brand customers are for their end-brand products and do not include sales to these customers for their system integration activities for other end-brand products, if any. Our top ten end-brand
customers, including our two principal shareholders, together accounted for 78.8% of our sales in 2003, 77.4% in 2004 and 73.0% in 2005. Our top three end-brand customers together accounted for 41.1% of our sales in 2003, 42.9% in 2004 and 40.1% in
2005. In 2005, three end-brand customers, LG Electronics (excluding its purchases made as a system integrator), Dell and Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V. (Philips Electronics), each contributed to 10% or more of our sales.

We benefit from the strong collaborative relationships we maintain with our end-brand customers by participating in the development of
their products and gaining insights about levels of future demand for our products and other industry trends. Customers look to us for a dependable supply of quality products, even during downturns in the industry, and we benefit from the brand
recognition of our customers end products. The loss of these end-brand customers, as a result of customers entering into strategic supplier arrangements with our competitors or otherwise, would thus result not only in reduced sales, but also
in the loss of these benefits.

We cannot provide assurance that these customers will continue to place orders with us in the future at the
same levels as in prior periods, or at all.

Any material deterioration in the financial condition of our key end-brand customers, their system
integrators or our affiliated trading company will have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

Our top ten end-brand
customers accounted for 78.8% of our sales in 2003, 77.4% in 2004 and 73.0% in 2005, on an aggregate basis. Although we negotiate directly with our end-brand customers concerning the price and quantity of the sales, we typically invoice their
designated system integrators. In addition, a portion of our sales to end-brand customers and their system integrators located in certain regions are sold through our affiliated trading company, LG International Corp. and its subsidiaries. As a
result of our significant dependence on a concentrated group of end-brand customers and their designated system integrators, as well as the sales we make to our affiliated trading company and its subsidiaries, we are exposed to credit risks
associated with these entities.

Changes at our end-brand customers could cause sales of our products to decline.

Mergers, acquisitions, divestments or consolidations involving our end-brand customers can present risks to our business, as management at the new entity
may change the way they do business, including their transactions with us, or may decide not to use us as one of their suppliers of TFT-LCD products. In addition, we cannot provide assurance that a combined entity resulting from a merger,
acquisition or consolidation will continue to purchase TFT-LCD panels from us at the same level as each entity purchased in the aggregate when they were separate companies or that a divested company will purchase panels from us at all.

##### Table of Contents

Our results of operations depend on our ability to keep pace with changes in technology.

Advances in technology typically lead to rapid declines in sales volumes for products made with older technologies and may lead to these products
becoming less competitive in the marketplace, or even obsolete. As a result, we will likely be required to make significant expenditures to develop or acquire new process and product technologies. Also, our ability to manufacture our products by
utilizing advanced process technologies to increase production yields at low production cost will be critical to our sustained competitiveness. We cannot provide assurance that we will be able to continue to successfully develop new products through
our research and development efforts or through obtaining technology licenses, or that we will keep pace with technological changes in the marketplace.

Our revenues depend on continuing demand for notebook computers, desktop monitors, televisions and other application products with TFT-LCD panels. Our sales may not grow at the rate we expect if consumers do not purchase these
products.

Currently, our total sales are derived principally from customers using our products in notebook computers, desktop
monitors, televisions and other application products with display devices. In particular, a substantial percentage of our sales is derived from end-brand customers, or their designated system integrators, who use our TFT-LCD panels in their desktop
monitors, which accounted for 57.7% , 56.0% and 47.0% of our total sales based on revenue in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. A substantial portion of our sales is also derived from end-brand customers, or their designated system integrators, who
use our panels in their notebook computers, which accounted for 28.5%, 25.5% and 21.0% of our total sales based on revenue in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. A significant portion of our sales is also increasingly derived from end-brand
customers, or their designated system integrators, who use our panels in their televisions, which accounted for 11.2%, 14.0% and 27.8% of our total sales based on revenue in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. We will continue to be dependent on the
personal computer industry as well as growth in the television industry for a significant portion of our sales, and any downturn in the personal computer and television industry may result in reduced demand for our products, lower average selling
prices and/or reduced margins.

In addition, we anticipate that there will be increasing migration from conventional cathode ray tube, or
CRT, televisions to TFT-LCD televisions. We have installed, and we expect to continue to install, capacity in anticipation of increased television demand generated by this trend. However, we may be unable to successfully execute our strategy or
sustain our growth and profitability if this migration to TFT-LCD televisions does not take place at the anticipated time, or at all. Moreover, we can offer no assurance that threats from competing technologies will not significantly affect and
alter our strategy for and competitive position in the television market. If our current strategy to address the expected growth in the television market, in part by increasing our production capacity, fails, our business, financial condition and
results of operations would be materially adversely affected.

The introduction of alternative display panel technologies, including those currently
under development by our competitors and us, may erode future sales of TFT-LCD panels, which may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

New display technologies being developed by other panel makers, such as organic light emitting diode, or OLED, which is a technology that we are also
developing, may gain wider market acceptance than TFT-LCD technology for use in certain products, such as mobile phones. In addition, alternative display technologies, such as plasma display panel, or PDP, may gain wider market acceptance than
TFT-LCD technology for use in certain products, such as in televisions, which generally command higher prices due to their larger panel sizes. If consumers do not purchase products utilizing TFT-LCD panels as we expect, or if TFT-LCD technology
itself is rendered obsolete, this would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations to the extent we cannot offset such loss in demand for TFT-LCD products by selling products using other display technologies.

We will have significant capital requirements in connection with our business strategy and if capital resources are
not available we may not be able to implement our strategy and future plans.

In connection with our strategy to expand the
diversity and capacity of our TFT-LCD production, we estimate that we will incur significant expenditures for the expansion of existing production lines, construction of new facilities and strategic investments, such as the development of our Paju
Display Cluster and construction of a new module production plant in Wroclaw, Poland.

In Paju, we built our seventh fabrication facility,
or P7, in 2005. We commenced mass production at P7 in January 2006. By the second quarter of 2006, we expect that P7 will reach a production capacity of 45,000 glass sheets per month. By the end of 2006, P7 is expected to reach its initial design
capacity of 90,000 input sheets per month. We currently estimate that the construction and build-out of P7, at a capacity of 90,000 sheets per month, will cost approximately (Won)5.3 trillion in total. Our total capital expenditure for 2005 was
approximately (Won)4.4 trillion (US$4.4 billion), of which approximately (Won)3.2 trillion was attributable to capital expenditure for P7. We expect our capital expenditures for P7 to be approximately (Won)1.8 trillion in 2006. In addition, we are
currently in the preliminary stage of constructing our eighth fabrication facility, or P8, in our Paju Display Cluster. Our estimated total capital expenditure for P8 remains undecided as we continue to evaluate appropriate production capacity
targets for P8. We expect P8s initial production capacity will depend on future growth trends in the TFT-LCD panel market. We also broke ground on the new module production plant in Wroclaw, Poland in June 2006. We expect production at the
Polish plant to commence in the first half of 2007 at an initial production capacity of 3 million modules per year. We plan to invest a total of 429 million in the plant by 2011, at which time it is scheduled to reach its design capacity
of 11 million units per year. We are currently expanding our module production plants in Nanjing, China. In May 2006, we also entered into an investment agreement with the Guangzhou Development District Administrative Committee to construct a
module production plant in Guangzhou, a city in southern China.

We estimate our total capital expenditures will be approximately (Won)4.2
trillion in 2006. These capital expenditures will be made well in advance of any additional sales that will be generated from these expenditures. However, in the event of adverse market conditions, or if our actual expenditures far exceed our
planned expenditures, our external financing activities combined with our internal sources of liquidity may not be sufficient to effect our current and future operational plans, and we may decide not to expand the capacity of certain of our
facilities, including P7, or to continue construction of P8 and the Polish plant.

The failure to obtain sufficient financing on
commercially reasonable terms to complete our expansion plans could delay or derail our ability to pursue our business strategy, which could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Our manufacturing processes are complex and periodic improvements to increase efficiency can expose us to potential disruptions in operations.

The manufacturing process for TFT-LCD products is highly complex, requiring sophisticated and costly equipment that is periodically modified and
updated to improve manufacturing yields and product performance, and reduce unit manufacturing costs. These updates expose us to the risk that from time to time production difficulties will arise that could cause delivery delays, reduced output or
both. We cannot provide assurance that we will not experience manufacturing problems in achieving acceptable output, product delivery delays or both as a result of, among other factors, construction delays, difficulties in upgrading or modifying
existing production lines or ramping up new plants, difficulties in changing manufacturing line technologies or delays in equipment deliveries, any of which could constrain our capacity and adversely affect our results of operations.

##### Table of Contents

We may be unable to successfully execute our expansion strategy or manage and sustain our growth on a timely basis,
if at all, and, as a result, our business may be harmed.

We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, rapid growth
in the scope and complexity of our operations. For example, we expanded our capacity by commencing mass production at our third fabrication facility, P3, in July 2000, our fourth fabrication facility, P4, in March 2002, our fifth fabrication
facility, P5, in May 2003 and at our sixth fabrication facility, P6, in August 2004. We also commenced production at a new module assembly facility in Nanjing, China, in May 2003. In addition, we are currently expanding existing production lines,
including expansion of P7s production capacity, and constructing new facilities, including P8 in Paju and a new module production plant in Wroclaw, Poland and a module production plant in Nanjing, China. In May 2006, we also entered into an
investment agreement with the Guangzhou Development District Administrative Committee to construct a module production plant in Guangzhou, a city in southern China. See We will have significant capital requirements in connection with our
business strategy and if capital resources are not available we may not be able to implement our strategy and future plans above.

This sustained growth may strain our managerial, financial, manufacturing and other resources. We may experience manufacturing difficulties in starting new production lines, upgrading existing facilities or ramping up new plants, including
P7 and P8, which represents a new and relatively less proven glass size and equipment generation for the industry, as a result of cost overruns, construction delays or shortages of, or quality problems with, materials, labor or equipment, any of
which could result in a loss of future revenues. In addition, failure to keep up with our competitors in future investments in manufacturing capacity would impair our ability to effectively compete within the TFT-LCD industry. Failure to obtain
intended economic benefits from expansion projects could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Under Korean law, the construction of factories exceeding a certain size is prohibited in designated areas around Seoul, such as Paju. We have been able to construct the facilities in our Paju complex pursuant to an exemption available to
companies whose foreign equity interest equals or exceeds 30%. Foreign equity interest includes any equity invested by a foreigner pursuant to the Foreign Investment Promotion Law, and Philips Electronics equity interest in us
qualifies for this purpose. If the aggregate equity interest held by Philips Electronics or other qualifying foreign investors were to fall below 30% and the relevant requirements for the exemption are not relaxed, we would no longer be eligible for
this exemption. This may, in turn, have a material adverse affect on our ability to construct additional facilities in Paju.

If we cannot maintain
high capacity utilization rates, our profitability will be adversely affected.

The production of TFT-LCD panels entails high fixed
costs resulting from considerable expenditures for the construction of complex fabrication and assembly facilities and the purchase of costly equipment. We aim to maintain high capacity utilization rates so that we can allocate these fixed costs
over a greater number of panels produced and realize higher gross margins. However, we cannot provide assurance that we will be able to sustain our capacity utilization rates in the future.

We depend on a limited number of third party suppliers for key raw materials, components and manufacturing equipment, and any disruption in their supply will
negatively affect our business.

Our production operations depend on obtaining adequate supplies of quality raw materials and
components on a timely basis. As a result, it is important for us to control our component and raw material costs and reduce the effects of fluctuations in price and availability. In general, we source most of our raw materials as well as key
components of TFT-LCD products such as backlight units, driver integrated circuits and polarizers, from two or three suppliers for each key component. We may experience shortages in the supply of these and other components or raw materials as a
result of, among other things, anticipated capacity expansion in the TFT-LCD industry. Our results of operations would be adversely affected if we were unable to obtain adequate supplies of high quality raw materials or components in a timely manner
or make alternative arrangements for such supplies,

##### Table of Contents

or if there were significant increases in the costs of raw materials or components that we could not pass on to our customers.

In addition, we have purchased, and expect to purchase, a substantial portion of our equipment from a limited number of qualified foreign and local
suppliers. From time to time, increased demand for new equipment may cause lead times to extend beyond those normally required by the equipment vendors. The unavailability of equipment, delays in the delivery of equipment, or the delivery of
equipment that does not meet our specifications, could delay implementation of our expansion plans and impair our ability to meet customer orders. This could result in a loss of revenues and cause financial stress on our operations.

Purchase orders from our customers, which are placed generally one month in advance of delivery, vary in volume from period to period, and we operate with a modest
inventory, which may make it difficult for us to efficiently allocate capacity on a timely basis in response to changes in demand.

Our major customers and their designated system integrators provide us with three- to six-month rolling forecasts of their product requirements. However, firm orders are not placed until one month before delivery when negotiations on
purchase prices are also finalized. Firm orders may be less than anticipated based on these three- to six-month forecasts. Due to the cyclicality of the TFT-LCD industry, purchase order levels from our customers have varied from period to period.
Although we typically operate with a two- to four-week inventory, it may be difficult for us to adjust production costs or to allocate production capacity in a timely manner to compensate for any such volatility in order volumes. Our inability to
respond quickly to changes in overall demand for TFT-LCD products as well as changes in product mix and specifications may result in lost revenues, which would adversely affect our results of operations.

We may experience losses on inventories.

Frequent new product introductions in the computer and consumer electronics industries can result in a decline in the average selling prices of our TFT-LCD panels and the obsolescence of our existing TFT-LCD panel inventory. This can result
in a decrease in the stated value of our TFT-LCD panel inventory, which we value at the lower of cost or market value.

We manage our
inventory based on our customers and our own forecasts. Although adjustments are regularly made based on market conditions, we typically deliver our goods to the customers one month after a firm order has been placed. While we maintain open
channels of communication with our major customers to avoid unexpected decreases in firm orders or subsequent changes to placed orders, and try to minimize our inventory levels, such actions by our customers may have an adverse effect on our
inventory management.

We need to observe certain financial and other covenants under the terms of our debt instruments, the failure to comply with
which would put us in default under those instruments.

We have issued floating rate notes and debentures which contain financial
and other covenants with which we are required to comply on an annual and semi-annual basis. The financial covenants include debt-to-equity ratios, debt-coverage ratios, interest-coverage ratios and total debt limits. The documentation for such debt
also contains negative pledges as well as cross-default and cross-acceleration clauses, which give related creditors the right to accelerate the amounts due under such debt if an event of default or acceleration has occurred with respect to our
existing or future indebtedness, or if any material part of our indebtedness or indebtedness of our subsidiaries is capable of being declared payable before the stated maturity date. In addition, such covenants restrict our ability to raise future
debt financing.

If we breach our financial or other covenants, our financial condition will be adversely affected to the extent we are not
able to cure such breaches or repay the relevant debt.

Our results of operations are subject to exchange rate fluctuations.

Our sales and purchases of raw materials and expenditures on capital equipment are denominated mainly in U.S. dollars, Japanese yen and Korean Won, and,
in the case of our sales, also in Euros. In 2005, 90.4% of our sales were denominated in U.S. dollars, 4.3% in Euros, 3.6% in Japanese yen and 1.5% in Korean Won. During the same period, 40.6% of our purchases of raw materials were denominated in
U.S. dollars, 36.7% in Japanese yen and 22.5% in Korean Won. In addition, 5.6%, 16.8% and 76.2% of our equipment purchases and construction costs, which represented almost all of our total capital expenditures in 2005, were denominated in U.S.
dollars, Japanese yen and Korean Won, respectively.

Accordingly, fluctuations in exchange rates, in particular between the U.S. dollar and
the Korean Won, affect our gross profit and pre-tax income. In general, an appreciation in the Korean Won against the U.S. dollar has a net negative impact on such results, although it causes a foreign currency translation gain on our
foreign-currency debt and currency forward contracts. Although the impact of exchange rate fluctuations has in the past been partially mitigated by the natural offset of our foreign currency receivables with our payables, our foreign-currency debt
and our use of foreign exchange forward contracts, we cannot provide assurance that these offsets and hedges will reduce the overall impact of any exchange rate fluctuations in the future.

We will lose a portion of the income tax exemption currently available to us under the foreign direct investment laws of Korea if Philips Electronics reduces its
ownership in us.

Philips Electronics investment in us upon the formation of the joint venture was characterized as a foreign
direct investment under the Foreign Investment Promotion Act of Korea. Accordingly, we are entitled to an exemption from income taxes on income generated from our TFT-LCD business pursuant to the Special Tax Treatment Control Law of Korea in an
amount proportional to the percentage of foreign direct equity investment in us for the first seven taxable years following the registration of such investment, which for us was in August 1999, and at one-half of that percentage for the subsequent
three taxable years. In 2005, we received a tax benefit of (Won)35.1 billion (US$34.7 million), or 8.7% of income before income taxes, as a result of Philips Electronics 41.33% weighted average ownership in us in 2005. Until 2008, we will lose
0.137% of the tax exemption benefit in respect of income generated from our TFT-LCD business for each 1% reduction in Philips Electronics ownership in us, assuming that the income tax rate applicable to us is the same as that in 2005. After
2008, we will no longer be eligible to receive this income tax exemption. Losses of portions of this tax exemption could negatively affect our results of operations.

Our business relies on patent rights and our patent rights may be narrowed in scope or found to be invalid or otherwise unenforceable.

Our success will depend, to a significant extent, on our ability to obtain and enforce our patent rights both in Korea and worldwide. The coverage
claimed in a patent application can be significantly reduced before a patent is issued, either in Korea or abroad. Consequently, we cannot provide assurance that any of our pending or future patent applications will result in the issuance of
patents. Patents issued to us may be subjected to further proceedings limiting their scope and may not provide significant proprietary protection or competitive advantage. Our patents also may be challenged, circumvented, invalidated or deemed
unenforceable. In addition, because patent applications in certain countries generally are not published until more than 18 months after they are first filed, because we currently monitor patent applications filed only by other parties in Korea,
Japan and the United States, and because publication of discoveries in scientific or patent literature often lags behind actual discoveries, we cannot be certain that we were, or any of our licensors was, the first creator of inventions covered by
pending patent applications, that we or any of our licensors will be entitled to any rights in purported inventions claimed in pending or future patent applications, or that we were, or any of our licensors was, the first to file patent applications
on such inventions.

##### Table of Contents

Furthermore, pending patent applications or patents already issued to us or our licensors may become
subject to dispute, and any dispute could be resolved against us. For example, we may become involved in re-examination, reissue or interference proceedings and the result of these proceedings could be the invalidation or substantial narrowing of
our patent claims. We also could be subject to court proceedings that could find our patents invalid or unenforceable or could substantially narrow the scope of our patent claims. In addition, depending on the jurisdiction, statutory differences in
patentable subject matter may limit the protection we can obtain on some of our inventions.

Failure to protect our intellectual property rights
could impair our competitiveness and harm our business and future prospects.

We believe that developing new products and
technologies that can be differentiated from those of our competitors is critical to the success of our business. We take active measures to obtain international protection of our intellectual property by obtaining patents and undertaking monitoring
activities in our major markets. However, we cannot assure you that the measures we are taking will effectively deter competitors from improper use of our proprietary technologies. Our competitors may misappropriate our intellectual property,
disputes as to ownership of intellectual property may arise and our intellectual property may otherwise become known or independently developed by our competitors.

On August 29, 2002, we filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Central District of California against Chunghwa Picture Tubes, Tatung Company and Tatung Co. of America, Inc. We believe that
these companies have infringed on six of our United States patents relating to liquid crystal displays and the manufacturing processes for thin-film transistors and liquid crystal displays by selling TFT-LCD products into the United States covered
by these patents. We are seeking, among other things, treble damages for past infringement of these patents and for an injunction against future infringement. The trial is scheduled to begin on October 3, 2006. We also filed a complaint in the
United States District Court for the Central District of California against customers of Chunghwa Picture Tubes, including ViewSonic Corp., Jean Co., Lite-On Technology Corp., Lite-On Technology International, Inc., TPV Technology and Invision
Peripheral Inc. On May 24, 2004, we sought declaratory relief in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts to determine the inventorship of four of these patents. The case has been dismissed, and the inventorship issue
is to be decided in the pending lawsuit before the Central District of California. On June 21, 2004, Chunghwa Picture Tubes filed a counter-claim against us in the United States District Court for the Central District of California for alleged
infringement of Chunghwa Picture Tubes intellectual property and violation of U.S. antitrust laws. On August 3, 2004, we demanded arbitration of the counter-claims filed by Chunghwa Picture Tubes. The arbitration proceedings are currently
in progress before the American Arbitration Association.

On May 27, 2004, we filed a complaint in the United States District Court
for the District of Delaware against Tatung Co. and ViewSonic Corp. claiming patent infringement on two of our United States patents relating to rear mountable liquid crystal display devices. We are seeking damages for past infringement and an
injunction against future infringement. We also filed a parallel complaint with the Patents County Court in the United Kingdom claiming infringement on one of our U.K. patents relating to the same technology. Tatung Co. is a major shareholder in
Chunghwa Picture Tubes. The Patents County Court ruled in favor of the defendants, and we appealed the ruling. The case is currently under review by the appellate court.

On January 10, 2005, Chunghwa Picture Tubes filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Central District of California against LG Electronics and us for alleged infringement of one of its U.S.
patents relating to flat panel display mounting systems. On April 25, 2005, we filed our answer to Chunghwa Picture Tubes infringement claim, together with a counter-claim in the United States District Court for the Central District of
California for the correction of the legal title of the subject patent. The case is currently in the discovery phase.

##### Table of Contents

On May 13, 2005, we filed a separate complaint in the United States District Court for the District
of Delaware against Chunghwa Picture Tubes, Tatung Company, Tatung Co. of America and ViewSonic Corporation claiming infringement of our patents relating to the design and manufacture of liquid crystal display modules. We are seeking, among other
things, monetary damages for past infringement and an injunction against future infringement.

Any failure to protect our intellectual
property could impair our competitiveness and harm our business and future prospects.

Our rapid introduction of new technologies and products may
increase the likelihood that third parties will assert claims that our products infringe upon their proprietary rights.

Although
we take and will continue to take steps to ensure that our new products do not infringe upon third party rights, the rapid technological changes that characterize our industry require that we quickly implement new processes and components with
respect to our products. Often with respect to recently developed processes and components, a degree of uncertainty exists as to who may rightfully claim ownership rights in such processes and components. Uncertainty of this type increases the risk
that claims alleging that such components or processes infringe upon third party rights may be brought against us. If our products or manufacturing processes are found to infringe upon third party rights, we may be subject to significant liabilities
and be required to change our manufacturing processes or be prohibited from manufacturing certain products, which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial condition.

We may be required to defend against charges of infringement of patent or other proprietary rights of third parties. Although patent and other
intellectual property disputes in our industry have often been settled through licensing or similar arrangements, such defense could require us to incur substantial expense and to divert significant resources of our technical and management
personnel, and could result in our loss of rights to develop or make certain products or require us to pay monetary damages or royalties to license proprietary rights from third parties. Furthermore, we cannot be certain that the necessary licenses
would be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all. Accordingly, an adverse determination in a judicial or administrative proceeding or failure to obtain necessary licenses could prevent us from manufacturing and selling certain of our
products. Any such litigation, whether successful or unsuccessful, could result in substantial costs to us and diversions of our resources, either of which could adversely affect our business.

We rely on technology provided by third parties and our business will suffer if we are unable to renew our licensing arrangements with them.

From time to time, we have obtained licenses for patent, copyright, trademark and other intellectual property rights to process and device technologies
used in the production of our display panels. We have entered into key licensing arrangements with third parties, for which we have made, and continue to make, periodic license fee payments. In addition, we also have cross-license agreements with
certain other third parties. These agreements terminate upon the expiration of the respective terms of the patents.

If we are unable to
renew our technology licensing arrangements on acceptable terms, we may lose the legal protection to use certain of the processes we employ to manufacture our products and be prohibited from using those processes, which may prevent us from
manufacturing and selling certain of our products, including our key products. In addition, we could be at a disadvantage if our competitors obtain licenses for protected technologies on more favorable terms than we do.

In the future, we may also need to obtain additional patent licenses for new or existing technologies. We cannot provide assurance that these license
agreements can be obtained or renewed on acceptable terms or at all, and if not, our business and operating results could be adversely affected.

We rely upon trade secrets and other unpatented proprietary know-how to maintain our competitive position in the
TFT-LCD industry and any loss of our rights to, or unauthorized disclosure of, our trade secrets or other unpatented proprietary know-how could negatively affect our business.

We also rely upon trade secrets, unpatented proprietary know-how and information, as well as continuing technological innovation in our business. The
information we rely upon includes price forecasts, core technology and key customer information. We enter into confidentiality agreements with each of our employees and consultants upon the commencement of an employment or consulting relationship.
These agreements generally provide that all inventions, ideas, discoveries, improvements and copyrightable material made or conceived by the individual arising out of the employment or consulting relationship and all confidential information
developed or made known to the individual during the term of the relationship is our exclusive property. We cannot assure the enforceability of these types of agreements, or that they will not be breached. We also cannot be certain that we will have
adequate remedies for any breach. The disclosure of our trade secrets or other know-how as a result of such a breach could adversely affect our business. Also, our competitors may come to know about or determine our trade secrets and other
proprietary information through a variety of methods. Disputes may arise concerning the ownership of intellectual property or the applicability or enforceability of our confidentiality agreements, and there can be no assurance that any such disputes
would be resolved in our favor. Further, others may acquire or independently develop similar technology, or if patents are not issued with respect to products arising from research, we may not be able to maintain information pertinent to such
research as proprietary technology or trade secrets and that could have an adverse effect on our competitive position within the TFT-LCD industry.

We rely on key researchers and engineers, senior management and production facility operators, and the loss of the services of any such personnel or the inability to attract and retain them may negatively affect our business.

Our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued service of our research and development and engineering personnel,
and on our ability to continue to attract, retain and motivate qualified researchers and engineers, especially during periods of rapid growth. In particular, our focus on leading the market in introducing new products and advanced manufacturing
processes has meant that we must aggressively recruit engineers with expertise in cutting-edge technologies.

In addition, as a joint
venture between LG Electronics and Philips Electronics, we have in the past relied on our affiliation with LG Electronics and Philips Electronics to recruit and retain important research and development personnel. We can offer no assurance that we
will be able to realize these advantages if our affiliation with LG Electronics and Philips Electronics is significantly reduced in the future.

We also depend on the services of experienced key senior management, and if we lose their services, it would be difficult to find and integrate replacement personnel in a timely manner, or at all. We also employ highly skilled line
operators at our various production facilities.

The loss of the services of any of our key research and development and engineering
personnel, senior management or skilled operators without adequate replacement, or the inability to attract new qualified personnel, would have a material adverse effect on our operations.

Our two principal shareholders, LG Electronics and Philips Electronics, which together currently own approximately 70.8% of our voting stock, have significant
influence over corporate decisions.

LG Electronics and Philips Electronics together have control of all matters submitted to our
shareholders for approval, including electing certain of our directors, amending our articles of incorporation and approving changes of control that may impact you as a minority shareholder. The directors elected by these shareholders are

able to make decisions affecting our capital structure, including decisions to issue additional capital stock, implement stock repurchase programs and incur
indebtedness.

In addition, we engage in a variety of related party transactions with our two principal shareholders and their respective
affiliates:



| |  |  | Purchases from LG Electronics and its affiliates  purchases of materials, equipment, components and services from LG Electronics and its affiliates, excluding LG International
and its subsidiaries, amounted to 28.4%, 21.2% and 13.7% (excluding services purchased from GS Engineering & Construction which, as of January 2005, is no longer an affiliated company of the LG Group) of our total purchases of materials,
equipment, components and services in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Sales to LG Electronics  sales to LG Electronics (including its overseas subsidiaries) on an invoiced basis, which include sales to LG Electronics as an end-brand customer and
system integrator, including sales through Serveone (formerly LG MRO Co., Ltd.), amounted to 25.1%, 19.3% and 18.1% of our sales in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Sales to Philips Electronics and its affiliates  sales to Philips Electronics and its affiliates on an invoiced basis, which include sales to Philips Electronics as an
end-brand customer and system integrator, amounted to 9.9%,14.5% and 13.1% of our sales in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Purchases from LG International  purchases of materials, equipment and components from LG International and its subsidiaries amounted to 17.5%, 22.4% and 16.7% of our total
material, equipment and component purchases in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Sales to LG International  sales to LG International and its subsidiaries on an aggregate basis amounted to 10.0%, 5.5% and 7.4% of our sales in 2003, 2004 and 2005,
respectively.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Purchases from Philips Electronics  purchases of driver integrated circuits from Philips Electronics semiconductor division amounted to 0.8%, 0.6% and 0.6% of our total
purchases of materials, equipment, components and services in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pursuant to our articles of
incorporation and the terms of a shareholders agreement entered into between LG Electronics and Philips Electronics in July 2004, we have a nine-member board of directors which is composed of two outside directors selected by each of LG
Electronics and Philips Electronics, one outside director jointly selected by them and four non-outside directors. In March 2005, we established the Outside Director Nomination and Corporate Governance Committee which will nominate our future
outside directors. The right to nominate the four non-outside directors of our board depends on the respective ownership interest in us of each of LG Electronics and Philips Electronics. The two shareholders have also agreed to a co-voting
arrangement under which each party is obligated to vote in favor of the non-outside director candidates selected by the other party as well as the non-outside candidate jointly selected by the two shareholders. Subject to minimum shareholding
requirements, LG Electronics and Philips Electronics are able to nominate our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, respectively, who as our two joint representative directors, must act in concert in order for their actions to bind
us. See Item 6A. Directors and Senior Management for a description of the composition of our board and the joint representative director system under Korean law. As a result, persons with ties to LG Electronics and Philips Electronics
may account for as many as four directors on our board and will continue to exert substantial influence over the operation of our business.

The
interests of LG Electronics and Philips Electronics, and the directors and officers nominated by them, may differ from or conflict with those of us or our other shareholders.

When exercising their rights as our shareholders, either alone or in concert, LG Electronics and Philips Electronics may take into account not only our
interests but also their interests and the interests of their affiliates or other joint venture companies in competing display businesses. For example, LG Electronics and Philips



18

##### Table of Contents

Electronics merged their respective cathode ray tube businesses into a joint venture company named LG.Philips Displays in 2001. The interests of LG.Philips
Displays and other display businesses of LG Electronics and Philips Electronics may at times conflict with ours since the growth of our business depends, in part, on successful competition with other display technologies. These conflicts may result
in lost corporate opportunities for us, including opportunities to enter into lines of business that may overlap with those pursued by other display businesses of LG Electronics and Philips Electronics.

Various other conflicts of interest between our two shareholders and us may arise in the future in a number of areas relating to our business and
relationships, including potential acquisitions of businesses or properties, incurrence of indebtedness, financial commitments, sales and marketing functions, indemnity arrangements, service arrangements and the exercise by LG Electronics and
Philips Electronics of control over our management and affairs. Our board is currently composed of directors and officers who have been selected by our two shareholders and certain of our directors continue to hold positions at LG Electronics or
Philips Electronics. See Our two principal shareholders, LG Electronics and Philips Electronics, which together currently own approximately 70.8% of our voting stock, have, and will continue to have significant influence over corporate
decisions above and Item 6A. Directors and Senior Management for a description of the composition of our current board of directors.

Labor unrest may disrupt our operations.

As of December 31, 2005, approximately 68% of our total employees,
including those of our subsidiaries, were union members, and production employees accounted for substantially all of these members. We have a collective bargaining arrangement with our labor union, which is negotiated once a year. If our
relationship with our employees deteriorates and there is labor unrest resulting in a work stoppage or strike, our production facilities will not be able to continue operations and this will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition
and results of operations.

We are subject to strict environmental regulations and we may be subject to fines or restrictions that could cause our
operations to be interrupted.

Our manufacturing processes generate chemical waste, waste water and other industrial waste at
various stages in the manufacturing process, and we are subject to a variety of laws and regulations relating to the use, storage, discharge and disposal of such chemical by-products and waste substances. We have installed various types of
anti-pollution equipment, consistent with industry standards, for the treatment of chemical waste and equipment for the recycling of treated waste water at our various facilities. However, we cannot provide assurance that environmental claims will
not be brought against us or that the local or national governments will not take steps toward adopting more stringent environmental standards.

Any failure on our part to comply with any present or future environmental regulations could result in the assessment of damages or imposition of fines against us, suspension of production or a cessation of operations. In addition,
environmental regulations could require us to acquire costly equipment or to incur other significant compliance expenses that may materially and negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Relating to our American Depositary Shares, or ADSs, or our Common Stock

Future sales of shares of our common stock in the public market may depress our stock price and make it difficult for you to recover the full value of your investment in our common stock or our ADSs.

If our current principal shareholders, LG Electronics and Philips Electronics, sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the
public principal market, or if there is a perception that these sales may occur, the market price of our common stock could decline.

##### Table of Contents

Our public shareholders may have more difficulty protecting their interests than they would as shareholders of a
U.S. corporation.

Our corporate affairs are governed by our articles of incorporation and by the laws governing Korean
corporations. The rights and responsibilities of our shareholders and members of our board of directors under Korean law may be different from those that apply to shareholders and directors of a U.S. corporation. For example, minority shareholder
rights afforded under Korean law often require the minority shareholder to meet minimum shareholding requirements in order to exercise certain rights. In the case of public companies, a shareholder must own, individually or collectively with other
shareholders, at least 0.01% of our common stock for at least six months in order to file a derivative suit on behalf of us. While the facts and circumstances of each case will differ, the duty of care required of a director under Korean law may not
be the same as the fiduciary duty of a director of a U.S. corporation. Holders of our common stock or our ADSs may have more difficulty protecting their interests against actions of our management, members of our board of directors or controlling
shareholders than they would as shareholders of a U.S. corporation.

You may be limited in your ability to deposit or withdraw the common stock
underlying the ADSs, which may adversely affect the value of your investment.

Under the terms of our deposit agreement, holders of
common stock may deposit such common stock with the depositarys custodian in Korea and obtain ADSs, and holders of ADSs may surrender ADSs to the depositary and receive common stock. However, to the extent that a deposit of common stock
exceeds the difference between:



| |  |  | the aggregate number of common shares we have consented to allow to be deposited for the issuance of ADSs (including deposits in connection with offerings of ADSs and stock
dividends or other distributions relating to ADSs); and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the number of shares of common stock on deposit with the custodian for the benefit of the depositary at the time of such proposed deposit,
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

such common stock will not be accepted for deposit unless (1) our consent, subject to governmental authorization, with respect to such deposit has been obtained or
(2) such consent is no longer required under Korean laws and regulations.

Under the terms of the deposit agreement, no consent is
required if the shares of common stock are obtained through a dividend, free distribution, rights offering or reclassification of such stock. The current limit on the number of shares that may be deposited into our ADR facility is 68,095,700 as of
June 21, 2006. The number of shares issued or sold in any subsequent offering by us or our principal shareholders, subject to government authorization, raises the limit on the number of shares that may be deposited into the ADR facility, except
to the extent such deposit is prohibited by applicable laws or violates our articles of incorporation, or we determine with the ADR depositary to limit the number of shares of common stock so offered that would be eligible for deposit under the
deposit agreement in order to maintain liquidity for the shares in Korea as may be requested by the relevant Korean authorities. We might not consent to the deposit of any additional common stock. As a result, if a holder surrenders ADSs and
withdraws common stock, it may not be able to deposit the common stock again to obtain ADSs.

Holders of ADSs will not have preemptive rights in some
circumstances.

The Korean Commercial Code of 1962, as amended, and our articles of incorporation require us, with some exceptions,
to offer shareholders the right to subscribe for new shares of our common stock in proportion to their existing shareholding ratio whenever new shares are issued, except under certain circumstances as provided in our articles of incorporation.
Accordingly, if we issue new shares to non-shareholders based on such exception, a holder of our ADSs may experience dilution in its holdings. Furthermore, if we offer any right to subscribe for



20



---

##### Table of Contents

additional shares of our common stock or any rights of any other nature to existing shareholders subject to their preemptive rights, the depositary, after
consultation with us, may make the rights available to holders of our ADSs or use reasonable efforts to dispose of the rights on behalf of such holders and make the net proceeds available to such holders. The depositary, however, is not required to
make available to holders any rights to purchase any additional shares of our common stock unless it deems that doing so is lawful and feasible and;



| |  |  | a registration statement filed by us under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, is in effect with respect to those shares; or
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the offering and sale of those shares is exempt from or is not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Other than our registration rights agreement with each of LG Electronics and Philips Electronics as described in Item 7A. Major Stockholders,
we are under no obligation to file any registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or to endeavor to cause such a registration statement to be declared effective. Moreover, we may not be able to establish an exemption
from registration under the Securities Act. Accordingly, a holder of our ADSs may be unable to participate in our rights offerings and may experience dilution in its holdings. If a registration statement is required for a holder of our ADSs to
exercise preemptive rights but is not filed by us or is not declared effective, the holder will not be able to exercise its preemptive rights for additional ADSs and it will suffer dilution of its equity interest in us. If the depositary is unable
to sell rights that are not exercised or not distributed or if the sale is not lawful or feasible, it will allow the rights to lapse, in which case the holder will receive no value for these rights.

Holders of ADSs will not be able to exercise dissenters rights unless they have withdrawn the underlying shares of common stock and become our direct
shareholders.

In some limited circumstances, including the transfer of the whole or any significant part of our business and our
merger or consolidation with another company, dissenting shareholders have the right to require us to purchase their shares under Korean law. A holder of ADSs will not be able to exercise dissenters rights unless such holder has withdrawn the
underlying common stock and become our direct shareholder.

Dividend payments and the amount you may realize upon a sale of our common stock or ADSs
that you hold will be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Korean Won.

Cash dividends, if
any, in respect of the shares represented by our ADSs will be paid to the depositary in Korean Won and then converted by the depositary into U.S. dollars, subject to certain conditions. Accordingly, fluctuations in the exchange rate between the
Korean Won and the U.S. dollar will affect, among other things, the amounts a holder will receive from the depositary in respect of dividends, the U.S. dollar value of the proceeds that a holder would receive upon sale in Korea of the shares of our
common stock obtained upon surrender of ADSs and the secondary market price of ADSs. Such fluctuations will also affect the U.S. dollar value of dividends and sales proceeds received by holders of our common stock.

Risks Relating to Korea

If economic conditions in Korea
deteriorate, our current business and future growth could be materially and adversely affected.

We are incorporated in Korea, and
substantially all of our operations and assets are located in Korea. As a result, we are subject to political, economic, legal and regulatory risks specific to Korea. From early 1997 until 1999, Korea experienced a significant financial and economic
downturn, from which it is widely believed the country has now recovered to a large extent.

##### Table of Contents

The economic indicators in 2003, 2004 and 2005 have shown mixed signs of recovery and uncertainty, and
future recovery or growth of the economy is subject to many factors beyond our control. Events related to the terrorist attacks in the United States that took place on September 11, 2001, recent developments in the Middle East, including the
war in Iraq, higher oil prices, the general weakness of the global economy and the outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SARS, in Asia and other parts of the world have increased the uncertainty of global economic prospects in general
and may continue to adversely affect the Korean economy for some time. Any future deterioration of the Korean and global economy could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Developments that could hurt Koreas economy in the future include:



| |  |  | financial problems relating to chaebols (Korean conglomerates), or their suppliers, and their potential adverse impact on the Korean economy, including as a result of recent
investigations relating to unlawful political contributions by chaebols;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | failure or lack of progress in restructuring of chaebols, the financial industry, including credit card companies, and other large troubled companies;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | loss of investor confidence arising from corporate accounting irregularities and corporate governance issues at certain chaebols;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a slowdown in consumer spending and the overall economy;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | adverse changes or volatility in foreign currency reserve levels, commodity prices (including an increase in oil prices), exchange rates (including fluctuation of the U.S. dollar or
Japanese yen or revaluation of the Chinese RMB), interest rates and stock markets;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | deterioration of economic or market conditions in other emerging markets;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | adverse developments in the economies of countries that are important export markets for Korea, such as the United States, Japan and China, or in emerging market economies in Asia
or elsewhere that could result in a loss of confidence in the Korean economy;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the continued emergence of China, to the extent its benefits (such as increased exports to China) are outweighed by its costs (such as competition in export markets or for foreign
investment and the relocation of the manufacturing base from Korea to China);
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | social and labor unrest;
| | - |  | ------------------------



| |  |  | a decrease in tax revenues and a substantial increase in the Korean governments expenditures for unemployment compensation and other social programs that, together, would lead
to an increased government budget deficit;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | geo-political uncertainty and risk of further attacks by terrorist groups around the world;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the recurrence of SARS or avian flu in Asia and other parts of the world;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | deterioration in economic or diplomatic relations between Korea and its trading partners or allies, including such deterioration resulting from trade disputes or disagreements in
foreign policy;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | political uncertainty or increasing strife among or within political parties in Korea;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | hostilities involving oil producing countries in the Middle East and any material disruption in the supply of oil or increase in the price of oil resulting from those hostilities;
and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an increase in the level of tensions or an outbreak of hostilities between North Korea and Korea and/or the United States.

Escalations in tensions with North Korea could have an adverse effect on us and the market value of our common

Relations between Korea and North Korea have been tense throughout Koreas modern history. The level of tension
between the two Koreas has fluctuated and may increase or change abruptly as a result of current and future events, including ongoing contacts at the highest levels of the governments of Korea and North Korea. In December 2002, North Korea removed
the seals and surveillance equipment from its Yongbyon nuclear power plant and evicted inspectors from the United Nations International Atomic Energy Agency. In January 2003, North Korea renounced its obligations under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation
Treaty.

In August 2003, representatives of Korea, the United States, North Korea, China, Japan and Russia held multi-lateral talks in an
effort to resolve issues relating to North Koreas nuclear weapons program. While the talks concluded without resolution, participants in the August meeting indicated that further negotiations may take place in the future and, in February 2004,
six-party talks resumed in Beijing, China. A third round of talks were held in June 2004 with an agreement to hold further talks in September, which were postponed. In February 2005, North Korea announced that it possesses nuclear weapons and pulled
out of six-party disarmament talks. A two-phased fourth round of six-party talks was held in Beijing, China during the summer and fall of 2005. In September 2005, North Korea agreed in principle to end its nuclear weapons program and the six
participating nations signed a draft preliminary accord pursuant to which North Korea agreed to dismantle its existing nuclear weapons, abandon efforts to produce new weapons and readmit international inspectors to its nuclear facilities.
Representatives of the six nations reconvened in Beijing in November 2005 for the first phase of the fifth-round of six-party talks, which concluded without further progress being made with respect to the implementation of the draft preliminary
accord.

In addition, in October 2004, the United States and Korea agreed to a three-phase withdrawal of approximately one-third of the
37,500 troops stationed in Korea by the end of 2008. By the end of 2004, 5,000 U.S. troops departed Korea in the first phase of such withdrawal. According to the plans second phase, the United States would remove 5,000 troops by the end of
2006. In the final phase, another 2,500 U.S. troops would be redeployed by the end of 2008.

Any further increase in tensions, which may
occur, for example, if high-level contacts break down or military hostilities occur, could have a material adverse effect on our operations and the market value of our common stock.

Financial instability in other countries, particularly emerging market countries in Asia, could adversely impact the Korean economy and our business and cause the price of our securities to go down.

The Korean market and the Korean economy are influenced by economic and market conditions in other countries, particularly
emerging market countries in Asia. Financial turmoil in Asia, Russia and elsewhere in the world in recent years has adversely affected the Korean economy. Although economic conditions are different in each country, investors reactions to
developments in one country can have adverse effects on the securities of companies in other countries, including Korea.

A loss of
investor confidence in the financial systems of emerging and other markets may cause increased volatility in Korean financial markets. We cannot be certain that financial events of the type that occurred in emerging markets in Asia in 1997 and 1998
will not happen again or will not have an adverse effect on the market value of our common stock.

|Item 4A. | History and Development of the Company
|-------- | --------------------------------------

We are the worlds largest merchant supplier, or supplier to third parties, of large-size TFT-LCD panels. According to DisplaySearch, one of the leading independent industry research firms, we have been the worlds leading
merchant supplier based on total units sold since 2002. We manufacture TFT-LCD panels in a broad range of sizes and specifications primarily for use in notebook computers, desktop monitors, televisions and industrial and other applications, and we
are one of the worlds leading suppliers of high-definition television panels. We also manufacture TFT-LCDs for handheld application products, such as mobile phones and personal digital assistants, as well as for industrial and other
applications, such as entertainment systems, automobile navigation systems, aircraft instrumentation and medical diagnostic equipment.

The
origin of our TFT-LCD business can be traced to the TFT-LCD research that began in 1987 at the Goldstar R&D Center, which was then part of LG Electronics. TFT-LCD research continued at a new research and development center established by LG
Electronics in 1990 in Anyang, Korea, which today continues to lead our technology innovation efforts. In 1993, the LCD business division was launched within LG Electronics, and in September 1995 commercial production of TFT-LCD panels began at P1,
its first fabrication facility, producing mainly 10.4-inch, 12.1-inch and 14.1-inch TFT-LCD panels for notebook computers and other applications. In February 1998, LG Semicon Inc., a subsidiary of LG Electronics, began commercial production at P2,
producing mainly 13.3-inch panels for notebook computers.

We were incorporated in 1985 under the laws of the Republic of Korea under the
original name of LG Soft, Ltd., a subsidiary of LG Electronics whose main business was the development and marketing of software. At the end of 1998, LG Electronics and LG Semicon transferred their respective TFT-LCD-related businesses to LG Soft,
Ltd., which, as part of the business transfer, changed its name to LG LCD Co., Ltd.

In July 1999, LG Electronics entered into a joint
venture agreement with Philips Electronics pursuant to which Philips Electronics acquired a 50% interest in LG LCD. In connection with this transaction, LG LCD transferred its existing software-related business to LG Electronics in order to focus
solely on the TFT-LCD business. In addition to the contribution of TFT-LCD-related businesses from LG Electronics and LG Semicon, the joint venture also benefited from Philips Electronics management skills, brand recognition and experience in
research and development relating to TFT-LCD products. The joint venture, which was renamed LG.Philips LCD Co., Ltd., was officially launched in September 1999. In July 2004, we completed our initial public offering and listed shares of our common
stock on the Korea Exchange and our ADSs on the New York Stock Exchange. Prior to the listings, LG Electronics and Philips Electronics terminated the joint venture agreement and entered into a shareholders agreement to reflect new arrangements
between them as controlling shareholders. See Item 7A. Major Stockholders for a more detailed discussion of the shareholding structure and arrangements between our two principal shareholders.

We continued to develop our manufacturing process technologies and expand production facilities after the formation of the joint venture. Each of our new
fabs has been designed to process increasingly larger-size glass substrates, which allows us to cut a larger number of panels, sometimes with larger sizes, from each glass substrate. The ability to process larger glass substrates allows us to
produce a larger variety of display sizes to accommodate evolving business and consumer demands. In July 2000, we began commercial production at P3, which was the first of a new glass-size and equipment generation for the industry. We designed P3 to
process 680 x 880 mm glass substrates to focus on 15-inch displays, which at the time was our mainstream product, while enabling us to transition into larger, higher-margin premium products such as 20-inch displays. We further improved our
manufacturing productivity in March 2002 with commercial production at P4, the worlds first fabrication facility to process glass substrate sizes greater than one square meter and to use one-drop-fill technology, which significantly reduces
manufacturing time. The large size of the glass substrate that P4 uses enabled us to efficiently manufacture 15-inch, 18-inch and 19-inch display panels, as well as wide-format panels

such as 17-inch wide-format, for both desktop monitors and televisions. We followed P4 with P5, which began commercial production in May 2003, in response to
business and consumer demands for 17-inch and larger desktop monitors and televisions. In August 2004, we commenced commercial production at P6, which is designed to process 1,500 x 1,850 mm glass substrates and to optimize the production of 17-inch
wide-format display panels for large desktop monitors and 32-inch and 37-inch wide format display panels for high-definition televisions. In January 2006, we commenced mass production at P7, which processes 1,950 x 2,250 mm glass substrates. P7 is
optimized to produce 42-inch and 47-inch wide-format display panels for televisions.

In addition, we are currently expanding existing
production lines, including expansion of P7s production capacity, and constructing new facilities, including P8 in our Paju Display Cluster and a new module production plant in Wroclaw, Poland. We have also entered into an investment agreement
with the Guangzhou Development District Administrative Committee to construct a module production plant in Guangzhou, a city in southern China. See Item 3D. Risk FactorsRisks Relating to Our CompanyWe will have significant capital
requirements in connection with our business strategy and if capital resources are not available we may not be able to implement our strategy and future plans.

From 1995 to early 2003, we assembled all panels in our Gumi assembly facility adjacent to our P1 facility. In May 2003, we commenced operations at a new assembly facility in Nanjing, China, which we built, and
expanded in 2004, in order to manage our expanding display capacity and better serve the growing needs of our global customers with manufacturing facilities in China. In November 2005, we commenced operations at a new assembly facility in Paju,
Korea. We broke ground on the new module production plant in Wroclaw, Poland in June 2006. We anticipate the Polish plant, which we expect will commence production in the first half of 2007, will help better serve our European customers and further
expand our global production capabilities.

Our principal executive offices are located at 17thFloor, West Tower, LG Twin Towers, 20 Yoido-dong, Youngdungpo-gu, Seoul, Republic of Korea, 150-721, and our telephone number at that address is
+82-2-3777-1010.

We seek to build our market position based on collaborative customer relationships, a focus on high-end
display products and manufacturing productivity. Our end-brand customers include many of the worlds leading manufacturers of notebook computers, desktop monitors and televisions. In 2005, for example, our display panels were included in
products sold by LG Electronics, Dell, Philips Electronics, Hewlett-Packard, Toshiba, Apple, Acer and Lenovo, among others. LG Electronics and Philips Electronics are our two principal shareholders, and terms of our sales to them are substantially
the same as those of our sales to non-affiliated end-brand customers. Our dedication to customers has helped us win the DisplaySearch Customer Satisfaction Award for fiscal years 2002, 2003 and 2004. DisplaySearch discontinued awarding the prize in
2005.

At the direction of our end-brand customers, we typically ship our display panels to their original equipment manufacturers, known
as system integrators, who use our display panels in products they assemble on a contract basis for our end-brand customers. Our sales are conducted through our multi-channel sales and distribution network, including direct sales to
end-brand customers and their system integrators, sales through our overseas subsidiaries and sales through our affiliated trading company, LG International, and its subsidiaries.

Our sales were (Won)6,098.4 billion in 2003, (Won)8,324.8 billion in 2004 and (Won)10,075.6 billion (US$9,975.8 million) in 2005.

Strategy

We believe that the primary market for
TFT-LCD products today includes notebook computers, desktop monitors and televisions. We believe that the TFT-LCD market will continue to expand as consumers are drawn to replace conventional CRT-based display products with TFT-LCD products due to
their superior performance features. We believe that the market for TFT-LCD products will also expand in scope as new applications for this technology continue to be designed and developed.

We aim to maintain and build upon our current position as the worlds largest merchant supplier of large-size TFT-LCD products by strengthening our
collaborative relationships with our end-brand customers, focusing on high-end display products, including high-definition television panels, and continuing to enhance our manufacturing productivity. We believe that our technology leadership enables
us to make timely investments in advanced manufacturing facilities and process technology migrations and improvements, which in turn positions us to deliver a broad and advanced product portfolio in high volumes and in a cost competitive manner to
our customers.

Build strong collaborative relationships with end-brand customers

We plan to continue to focus our resources on expanding our strong collaborative relationships with our key end-brand customers. Our principal end-brand
customers include many of the worlds leading manufacturers of computer products, such as Dell, Hewlett-Packard, Lenovo, Apple and Acer, as well as leading consumer electronics producers, such as Toshiba, LG Electronics and Philips Electronics.
These customers represent a large portion of the global demand for TFT-LCD products, and they value our product and design innovations as well as our ability to provide a reliable and high-quality supply of a wide range of TFT-LCD products in high
volumes.

We seek to collaborate with our end-brand customers in the design and development stages of their new products. The close
interactions with our end-brand customers allow us to gain insights into their product development strategies and market trends, and enable us to anticipate customer needs and tailor our research, development and manufacturing activities to take
advantage of emerging market opportunities. Our strong customer relationships also mean that we enjoy relatively stable demand from these high-volume customers.

Make timely investments in advanced and flexible manufacturing facilities

Our strategy is to time our investments in next-generation manufacturing facilities that enable us to support a wide range of products. As a result of our
investment strategy, our production facilities are among the most advanced in the industry, and our portfolio of seven fabrication facilities can produce a wide variety of products at high volumes to provide critical scale and flexibility in serving
our customers needs.

In the past, our timely investment strategy, along with faster fab ramp-up, has allowed us to establish a
leading position in emerging product categories with high growth potential. We have benefited from the higher margins available early in the life cycles of such products. For example, we built P3 and P4, the worlds first fourth- and
fifth-generation fabrication facilities optimized for desktop monitor panel production, and have since established ourselves as the largest merchant supplier in terms of both units sold and sales revenue in this category in 2003, 2004 and 2005 based
on data from DisplaySearch. Our P5, also a fifth-generation fabrication facility, is optimized for production of larger-size panels for desktop monitors and televisions. Our P6, a sixth- generation fabrication facility, is designed to capitalize on
opportunities in the large-size desktop monitor category, such as 17-inch and 20-inch wide-format panels, and in the television category, such as 32-inch wide-format and 37-inch and 37-inch wide-format panels, all of which are high-definition
television panels. P7, our first seventh-generation fabrication facility, is, among other things, optimized for the production of 42-inch and 47-inch wide-format television panels. The flexibility of our operations also allows us to shift our
production to the most attractive product market at any given time. For example, as the demand for larger and better monitors continues to grow, we have shifted part of the production in our P3 facility from 15-inch desktop monitor panels to 20-inch
UXGA high-resolution desktop monitor panels, thereby realizing higher margins. Currently, we are in the preliminary stage of constructing our eighth fabrication facility, or P8, in our Paju Display Cluster. Although we anticipate that P8 will be
primarily utilized to produce television panels, the market for which is rapidly growing, we remain flexible about the kind or the size of panels to be produced at P8, so that we may quickly shift the focus of our production to accommodate market
change.

The advanced nature and scale of our facilities is a key driver of our cost competitiveness. We believe it also enables us to
better meet the volume, product variety and turnaround time requirements of our customers.

Leverage technology leadership to deliver
high-performance products and enhance manufacturing productivity

We plan to continue focusing on our product and manufacturing
technology in order to maintain our position as an industry leader in delivering a broad and advanced product portfolio in high volumes and in a cost competitive manner.

In the area of product technology, we plan to continue leading the market in the commercial application of technologies with superior performance characteristics. For example, we were one of the first TFT-LCD
manufacturers to apply Super In Plane Switching (S-IPS) technology, which increases viewing angles for large-size desktop monitor and television products, in commercial production. We were the first to develop copper bus lines, which achieve faster
video frame rates and brighter displays in larger-size panels, and integrated column spacers, which improve panel ruggedness and enhance viewing uniformity.

We plan to continue focusing our development efforts on design and process innovations. Our advanced design and process technology capabilities have enabled us to deliver substantial improvements in manufacturing
productivity, often with only marginal capital investments. For example, our one-drop-fill technology allowed us to significantly reduce the time required to deposit liquid crystal materials into our panels. We were one of the first TFT-LCD
manufacturers to reduce the number of mask processes in the TFT array process from five to four. We were also able to improve the input capacity in P1 from its originally designed monthly input capacity of 30,000 substrates to its actual input
capacity as of December 2005 of 114,000 substrates per month with only marginal capital investments, which resulted in significant increases in unit output. Our technology capabilities



27

##### Table of Contents

have also enabled us to enhance process efficiencies, thereby increasing our effective capacity. For example, we were able to increase the number of 15-inch
panels we manufacture in P4 from 12 per glass substrate to 15, with no change to substrate size. Our ability to ramp-up P4, P5 and P6 in a short time span with minimal technical difficulties is also an example of our process technology
capability.

Focus on large and wide desktop monitor and television products while maintaining a broad product portfolio

Our strategy is to leverage our product technology, timely investments and advanced manufacturing capabilities to lead emerging
large-size product categories that offer higher growth potential and higher margins and help shape industry standards in product features such as size and resolution.

Our focus on desktop monitors established us as the largest merchant supplier in this category in 2003, 2004 and 2005 in terms of units sold, based on data from DisplaySearch. The desktop monitor market is currently
transitioning from 15-inch to larger panel sizes such as 19-inch and 20-inch, and we believe we are well positioned to capitalize on this opportunity with our full product line-up. In addition, we plan to maintain our leadership position in the
premium 20-inch and above desktop monitor category, where we were the first-to-market with products such as 20-inch UXGA, 22-inch WSXGA, 23-inch WUXGA and 30-inch WQXGA+.

Currently the LCD television market is experiencing strong growth. We began shipping television products in 2001 with 15-inch panels and have since broadened our product portfolio with the addition of 20-inch
conventional format as well as 17-inch, 23-inch, 26-inch, 30-inch, 32-inch, 37-inch, 42-inch and 55-inch wide-format panels. We were the largest merchant supplier in the television category in terms of both units sold and sales revenues in 2003 and
2005, based on data from DisplaySearch, and we continue to lead the market in introducing larger and higher-performance panels for televisions. For example, we were the first to develop 42-inch wide-format and 55-inch wide-format high-definition
television panels.

We believe that our product range across the notebook computer, desktop monitor and television markets is one of the
broadest in the industry and that it enables us to strengthen our relationships with our end-brand customers.

Continually reduce
costs

We focus on continually lowering our cost structure through:



| |  |  | Component cost reductions  we leverage our scale and leading industry position to obtain lower prices for components. In addition, our strategy is to facilitate the
development of a domestic vendor base, which typically offers lower component prices compared to overseas suppliers. Our strategic decision to fabricate our own color filters, one of the higher-cost components, has been an important driver of our
cost competitiveness;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Larger, more advanced manufacturing base  we plan to build successive generations of fabrication facilities that provide us with overhead cost advantages and that produce
higher volumes of products, enabling us to benefit from economies of scale;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | High glass conversion efficiency  we have been able to reduce our costs of production by maximizing glass conversion efficiency, a function of production yield and panel
design, allowing us to convert a high proportion of our input glass area into saleable display area. This results in part from our high yield rates and reduced wastage due to superior process control. We are also able to optimize production
allocation across our multiple fabs to maximize the glass conversion ratio; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Process innovation and research and development  our process technology innovations, such as one-drop-fill technology and mask reduction initiatives, have
consistently enabled us to improve the

Technology Description

TFT-LCD Technology

TFT-LCD consists of two thin glass substrates and polarizer films between which a layer of liquid crystals is deposited and behind which a light source
called a backlight unit is mounted. The front glass substrate is fitted with a color filter, while the back glass substrate, also called a TFT array, has a thin film of transistors, or TFT, formed on its surface. The liquid crystals are normally
aligned to allow the polarized light from the backlight unit to pass through the two glass panels to form a picture element, or pixel. When voltage is applied to the transistors on the TFT array, the liquid crystals change their alignment and alter
the amount of light that passes through them. Meanwhile, the color filter on the front glass substrate gives each pixel its own color. The combination of these pixels in different colors and levels of brightness forms the image on the panel.

Manufacturing Process

The process for manufacturing a TFT-LCD consists of four steps:



| |  |  | TFT array process  involves fabricating a large number of thin-film transistors on the back glass substrate. The number of transistors corresponds to the number of
pixels on the screen. The process is similar to the process for manufacturing semiconductor chips, except that transistors are fabricated on large glass substrates instead of silicon wafers. Unlike in the semiconductor industry, however, the number
of transistors per glass substrate is not a primary driver of the manufacturing costs for TFT-LCDs. Once the TFT array process on glass substrates is completed, the substrates are cut into panel-sized pieces;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Color filter process  involves fabricating a large number of color regions on the front glass substrate that overlays the TFT array in the cell process. The colored
dots of red, green and blue combine to form various colors. The process is similar to the TFT array process but involves depositing colored dyes instead of transistors;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Cell process  involves joining together the back glass substrate that is arrayed with transistors and the front glass substrate that is patterned with a color filter.
The space between the two glass substrates is filled with liquid crystal materials. The resulting panel is called a cell; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Module assembly process  involves connecting additional components, such as driver integrated circuits and backlight units, to the cell formed by combining the glass
substrates and liquid crystal materials.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The TFT array, color filter and cell processes are capital-intensive and require
highly automated production equipment and are the primary determinants of fixed manufacturing cost. In contrast, the module assembly process involves semi-automated production equipment and manual labor to assemble the various components. Materials
are the primary drivers of variable manufacturing cost.

We are also developing OLED display technology. OLED is considered a next
generation flat panel display technology particularly because it is able to display clearer images of fast moving objects than conventional technology. In February 2006, we entered into an evaluation agreement for OLED development with Eastman Kodak
Company, or Kodak. Pursuant to this agreement, we and Kodak will jointly evaluate display technologies for mobile displays and consider other opportunities, including the development and supply of OLED technology and products.

| |  |  | Other applications, which utilize a wide array of display panel sizes, ranging from small-size display panels to large-size display panels, primarily including handheld application
products such as mobile phones and personal digital assistants, and industrial applications.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our product portfolio also
includes small-size TFT-LCD panels for use in handheld application products, including mobile phones and personal digital assistants, and large-size panels used in industrial and other products, such as entertainment systems, automobile navigation
systems, aircraft instrumentation and medical diagnostic equipment. Unless otherwise specified, when we refer to panels in this annual report we mean assembled cells with added components, such as driver integrated circuits and backlight units.

We design and manufacture our panels to meet the various size and performance specifications of our customers, including specifications
relating to thinness, weight, resolution, color quality, power consumption, response times and viewing angles. The specifications vary from product to product. Notebook computers require an emphasis on thinness, light weight and power efficiency.
Desktop monitors demand a greater focus on brightness, color brilliance and wide viewing angles, while for televisions a premium is placed on faster response times, wider viewing angles and greater color fidelity.

Notebook Computers

Our
display panels for notebook computers range from 12.1 inches to 20.1-inch wide-format in size in a variety of display formats. In 2005, our principal products in the notebook computer category were 15.0-inch,15.4-inch and 17.1-inch panels. Our sales
of display panels for notebook computers were (Won)1,739.0 billion, or 28.5% of sales, in 2003, (Won)2,119.1 billion, or 25.5% of sales, in 2004 and (Won)2,113.4 billion (US$2,092.5 million), or 21.0% of sales, in 2005.

Notebook computer display panels were our principal product from our formation until 2001, when desktop monitor display panels surpassed notebook
computer display panels in terms of revenues. 13.3-inch and 14.1-inch panels accounted for a majority of our notebook computer panel sales in 2000 and 2001. Sales volume for 14.1-inch panels, a product which we first introduced to the market in
1997, continued to increase through 2002, while 15.0-inch panels grew at a faster rate and became the largest component in terms of both sales volume and revenues in the category of notebook computer display panels for 2003, 2004 and 2005.

One of the features of notebook computer display panels that we pioneered is our patented side mounting technology, which shifts the
screws mounting a TFT-LCD panel on a display from the front to the side, thereby allowing for much thinner borders, or bezels, around the display and allowing product designers to utilize larger screens without increasing a
products overall size.

Desktop Monitors

Our desktop monitor display panels range from 15 inches to 30-inch wide-format in size in a variety of display resolutions and formats. We began commercial production of desktop monitor display panels in 1999. In

##### Table of Contents

2005, our principal products in the desktop monitor category were 15-inch, 17-inch, 19-inch panels and 20.1-inch panels. Our sales of display panels for
desktop monitors were (Won)3,517.5 billion, or 57.7% of sales, in 2003, (Won)4,662.1 billion, or 56.0% of sales, in 2004 and (Won)4,740.4 billion (US$4,693.5 million), or 47.0% of sales, in 2005.

We have experienced significant growth during the past three years for our desktop monitor display panels. Desktop monitor display panels have grown to
become our largest product category, supplanting notebook computer display panels in terms of revenues in 2001, and in terms of volume units in 2002. The weighted average size of our desktop monitor display panels has steadily grown over the last
three years, with a significant increase in the production and sale of 17-inch and 17-inch wide-format and larger panels since 2002. In recent years, we have also significantly increased production and sale of 19-inch and 20.1-inch panels.

In addition to our side mounting technology, we employ S-IPS technology on certain desktop monitor display panels to achieve significantly
increased viewing angles.

Televisions

Our television panels range from 15 inches to 55-inch wide-format in size. We began commercial production of television display panels in 2001. In 2005, our principal products in the television category were 26-inch
wide-format, 32-inch wide-format and 37-inch wide-format panels. Our sales of display panels for televisions were (Won)685.9 billion, or 11.2% of sales, in 2003, (Won)1,162.8 billion, or 14.0% of sales, in 2004 and (Won)2,805.0 billion (US$2,777.2
million), or 27.8% of sales, in 2005.

The market for large-size televisions developed later than that for notebook computers and desktop
monitors, but we believe it will become our primary market as consumer demand grows for larger-size televisions. We believe that we can leverage our experience in the notebook computer and desktop monitor markets to take advantage of the growth
potential in the market for large-size televisions. We began commercial production with 15-inch panels and added 17-inch wide-format, 20-inch and 30-inch wide-format panels to our product portfolio in 2002. In 2003, we added 23-inch wide format,
26-inch wide-format and 42-inch wide-format as well as high-definition television panels to meet growing market demand and, in 2004, we added 32-inch wide-format, 37-inch wide-format and 55-inch wide-format to our television panel product portfolio.
Currently, 32-inch and 37-inch wide-format panels and 20.1-inch and 32-inch wide-format panels comprise our principal products in this category in terms of sales revenue and volume, respectively. In addition, in March 2006, we succeeded in
developing a 100-inch panel for televisions, the largest TFT-LCD panel in the world to date.

Brand manufacturers of televisions and their
distribution channels prefer long-term arrangements with a limited number of display panel suppliers that can offer a full product line, and we believe that we are well positioned to meet their requirements with our strengths in technology,
manufacturing scale and efficiency as well as the breadth of our product portfolio.

We employ S-IPS technology on certain television
panels to significantly increase the viewing angle. We also apply our Over Driving Circuit (ODC) technology to certain categories of larger-size panels to increase response time and decrease motion blurring. We are also further developing our copper
bus technology to achieve faster video frame rates and brighter displays in larger-size panels.

Other Applications

Our product portfolio also includes small- and medium-size TFT-LCD panels for use in handheld application products, including
mobile phones and personal digital assistants, and large-size panels for industrial and other products, including entertainment systems, automobile navigation systems, aircraft instrumentation and medical diagnostic equipment. In 2005, our principal
products in the other applications category were the 7-inch and 1.8-inch panel in terms of sales revenue and volume.

##### Table of Contents

Some of the panels we produce for industrial products, such as aircraft instrumentation and medical
diagnostic devices, are highly specialized niche products manufactured to the specifications of our clients, while others, such as industrial controllers, may be manufactured by slightly modifying a standard product design for our other products,
such as desktop monitors. Display panels for these other applications broaden our sales base and product mix. They are also often a good channel through which we can commercialize a particular technology that we have developed. We generally
determine the production level and specification of our TFT-LCD panels for other applications by assessing various business opportunities as they arise.

Our sales of display panels for other applications were (Won)155.9 billion, or 2.6% of sales, in 2003, (Won)380.8 billion, or 4.6% of sales, in 2004 and (Won)416.7 billion (US$412.5 million), or 4.1% of sales, in
2005.

Sales and Marketing

Customer Profile

Our display panels are included primarily in notebook computers, desktop monitors, televisions and
industrial and other applications sold by our global end-brand customers. In 2005, our top ten end- brand customers included LG Electronics, Dell, Philips Electronics, Hewlett-Packard, Toshiba, Apple, Acer, Lenovo, NDS and Hisense. LG Electronics
and Philips Electronics are our two principal shareholders, and the terms of our sales to them are conducted on an arms-length basis and are substantially the same as those of our sales to non-affiliated end-brand customers.

We negotiate directly with our end-brand customers concerning the terms and conditions of the sales, but typically ship our display panels to designated
system integrators at the direction of these end-brand customers. Sales data to end-brand customers include direct sales to these end-brand customers as well as sales to their designated system integrators, including through our affiliated trading
company, LG International, and its subsidiaries, as further discussed below under Sales.

A substantial portion of our
sales is attributable to a limited number of our end-brand customers. Our top ten end-brand customers, including our two shareholders, together accounted for 78.8% of our sales in 2003, 77.4% in 2004 and 73.0% in 2005. Our top five end-brand
customers together accounted for 56.4% of our sales in 2003, 58.0% in 2004 and 56.2% in 2005. In 2005, three end-brand customers, LG Electronics (excluding its purchases made as a system integrator), Dell and Philips Electronics, each contributed to
10% or more of our sales.

The following table presents our top five end-brand customers based on sales in our principal product categories
for 2005:

|(1) | Sales to other regions (i.e., regions excluding Korea, Asia, America and Europe) amounted to (Won)202 million in 2004 and represented 0.4%, 0.002% and 0.03% of aggregate
sales in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively.
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the past three years, a large percentage of our sales was attributable to
system integrators in Taiwan and to end-brand customers in Japan. Beginning in 2002, our sales to system integrators located in China increased significantly as they received increasing amounts of contract assembly work from end-brand customers. Of
our total sales, 29.4% in 2003, 32.8% in 2004 and 30.3% in 2005, was attributable to system integrators located in China. Sales to system integrators located in China are made in U.S. dollars and we are not exposed to currency risks from the Chinese
RMB.

Sales

Our
sales and marketing departments seek to maintain and strengthen relationships with our current customers in existing markets as well as expand our business in new markets and with new customers. We currently have wholly-owned sales subsidiaries in
the United States, Japan, Germany, Taiwan, Hong Kong and China. As of December 31, 2005, our sales and marketing force employed a total of 541 employees in regional offices in these countries and in our head office in Korea.

The focus of our sales activities is on strengthening our relationships with large end-brand customers, with whom we maintain strong collaborative
relationships. Customers look to us for a reliable supply of a wide range of TFT-LCD products. We believe our reliability and scale as a supplier helps support our customers product positions. We view our relationships with our end-brand
customers as important to their product development strategies, and we collaborate with our end-brand customers in the design and development stages of their new products. In addition, our sales teams coordinate closely with our end-brand
customers designated system integrators to ensure timely delivery. For each key customer, we appoint an account manager who is primarily responsible for our relationship with that specific customer, complemented by a product development team
consisting of engineers who participate in meetings with that customer to understand the customers specific needs. Our dedication to our customers has helped us win the overall DisplaySearch Customer Satisfaction Award for fiscal years 2002,
2003 and 2004. DisplaySearch discontinued awarding the prize in 2005.

We do not typically enter into binding long-term contracts with our
customers. However, we have in place long-term supply and purchase agreements with certain major end-brand customers, which are generally non-binding arrangements with three-year terms, whereby we and our end-brand customers agree on general volume
parameters and, in some cases, product specifications and delivery terms. These agreements serve as an indication of the size and key components of a customers order, and neither party is committed to supply or purchase any products until a
firm purchase order is issued. For instance, in June 2005, we entered into a non-binding supply contract with a renewable three-year term with Hewlett-Packard for the supply of TFT-LCD displays.

##### Table of Contents

Our sales are conducted through our multi-channel sales and distribution network, including direct sales
to end-brand customers and their system integrators, sales through our overseas subsidiaries and sales through our affiliated trading company, LG International, and its subsidiaries. Our sales subsidiaries procure purchase orders from and distribute
our products to system integrators and end-brand customers located in their region. In regions where we do not have a sales subsidiary, or where doing so is consistent with local market practices, we sell our products to LG International and its
subsidiaries. These subsidiaries of LG International process orders from and distribute products to customers located in their region. In particular, we have sold a significant amount of our products to LG International Japan, Ltd. and LG
International (HK) Ltd. and, until 2003, when we began to use our Taiwan subsidiary for sales to Singapore, LG International Singapore, Ltd. Sales to LG International and its subsidiaries on an aggregate basis amounted to 10.0%, 5.5% and 7.4% in
2003 , 2004 and 2005, respectively. See Item 7B. Related Party Transactions for further discussion of these sales arrangements.

We establish sales subsidiaries in the relevant geographical markets when the benefit of doing so outweighs the cost of utilizing our affiliated trading company, LG International, or its subsidiaries, and where local market practice
permits. Based on this approach, we established sales subsidiaries in Hong Kong and Shanghai, China, in January 2003, to replace LG International (HK) in conducting sales to system integrators located in China. We expect to continue to utilize LG
International Japan, consistent with local market practices there, to conduct our sales to end-brand customers in Japan, but may establish additional sales subsidiaries in the future in these or other regions as sales volumes to customers located in
these regions increase and/or market practice warrants.

Our end-brand customers or their system integrators generally place purchase
orders with us or subsidiaries of our affiliated trading company, LG International, one month prior to delivery based on our non-binding supply and purchase agreements with them. Generally, the head office of an end-brand customer provides us with
three- to six-month forecasts, which, together with our own forecasts, enable us to plan our production schedule in advance. Our customers usually issue monthly purchase orders containing prices we have negotiated with the end-brand customer one
month prior to delivery, at which point the customer becomes committed to the order at the volumes and prices indicated in the purchase orders. Under certain special circumstances, however, a negotiated price may be subject to change during the
one-month period prior to delivery.

Prices for our products are generally determined based on negotiations with our end-brand customers.
Pricing of our display panel products is generally market-driven, based on the complexity of the product specifications and the labor and technology involved in the design or production processes. Purchase prices and payment terms for our sales to
our two principal shareholders are substantially the same as those for our non-affiliated end-brand customers.

We generally provide a
limited warranty to our end-brand customers, including the provision of replacement parts and after-sale services for our products. Costs incurred under our warranty liabilities consist primarily of repairs. We set aside a warranty reserve based on
our historical experience and future expectations as to the rate and cost of claims under our warranties.

Our credit policy typically
requires payment within 30 to 90 days, and payments on the vast majority of our sales have been collected within 65 days. Where system integrators located in certain regions are invoiced directly, we have established certain measures, such as
factoring arrangements, to protect us from excessive exposure to credit risks. To date we have not experienced any material problems relating to customer payments.

Competition

The TFT-LCD industry is highly competitive. Due to the capital intensive nature of the display industry and the
high production volumes required to achieve economies of scale, the international market for display devices is characterized by significant barriers to entry, but the competition among the relatively small number of major producers is intense.
Currently almost all TFT-LCD manufacturers are located in Asia, and we compete principally with manufacturers from Korea, Taiwan, China and Japan.

According to DisplaySearch,
in 2005, Korean TFT-LCD manufacturers had a market share of 44% of the 10.0-inch or larger panel market based on revenue, Taiwanese manufacturers had 40% and Japanese manufacturers had 12%.

Components, Raw Materials and Suppliers

Components
and raw materials accounted for 60.8% of our cost of sales in 2003, 64.1% in 2004 and 62.6% in 2005. The key components and raw materials of our TFT-LCD products include glass substrates, backlight units, driver integrated circuits, polarizers,
color filters and liquid crystal materials. We source these components and raw materials from outside sources, although, unlike many other TFT-LCD manufacturers, we produce a substantial portion of the color filters we use.

We generally negotiate non-binding master supply agreements with our suppliers once a year, but pricing terms are negotiated on a quarterly basis, or if
necessary, on a monthly basis. Firm purchase orders are not issued until usually two weeks prior to the scheduled delivery, except in the case of purchase orders for driver integrated circuits, which are issued generally six to ten weeks prior to
the scheduled delivery. We purchase our components and raw materials based on forecasts from our end-brand customers as well as our own assessments of our end-brand customers needs.

In order to reduce our component and raw material costs and our dependence on any one supplier, we generally develop compatible components and raw
materials and purchase our components and raw materials from more than one source. However, we source the key components and raw materials from a limited group of suppliers in order to ensure timely supply and consistent quality. Also, in order to
reduce logistics and transportation costs, we continually review opportunities to source our components and raw materials from suppliers based in Korea. We perform periodic evaluations of our component and raw material suppliers based on a number of
factors, including the quality and cost of the materials, delivery and response time, the quality of the services and the financial health of the suppliers. We reassess our supplier pool accordingly.

In addition, in February 2005, we entered into a strategic joint venture agreement with Nippon Electric Glass Co., Ltd., or NEG, to form a new joint
venture company, named Paju Electric Glass Co., Ltd., which is located in Paju. Paju Electric Glass provides us with a dedicated supply of glass substrates critical to the



35

##### Table of Contents

production of our display panels. In 2005, we and NEG made a total capital investment of W36 billion in the joint venture, of which we and NEG own 40% and
60%, respectively. Paju Electric Glass began construction of the glass polishing and processing facility in the third quarter of 2005 and commenced mass production in February 2006. See Item 10C. Material Contracts.

We maintain a strategic relationship with many of our key material suppliers, and we generally maintain a component and raw material inventory sufficient
for approximately 10 days, or 20 days for driver integrated circuits as a safeguard against potential disruptions in supply.

In addition
to components and raw materials, the manufacturing of our products requires significant quantities of electricity and water. In order to obtain and maintain reliable electric power and water supplies, we have our own back-up power generation
facilities and water storage tanks as well as easy access to nearby water sources. To date we have not experienced any material problems with our electricity and water supplies.

Equipment and Suppliers

We depend on a limited number of equipment manufacturers for equipment
tailored to specific requirements. Since our manufacturing processes depend on the quality and technological capacity of our equipment, we work closely with the equipment manufacturers in the design process to ensure that the equipment meets our
specifications. The principal types of equipment we use to manufacture TFT-LCD panels include chemical deposition equipment, steppers, developers and coaters.

We purchase equipment from a small number of qualified vendors to ensure consistent quality, timely delivery and performance. We purchase a large majority of our equipment from overseas vendors, mostly Japanese. We
maintain strategic relationships with many equipment manufacturers as part of our efforts to reduce costs and we aggressively negotiate prices and other terms with our vendors. In the procurement of equipment from Japan, we also use LG
Internationals subsidiary in Japan in order to take advantage of their relationships with vendors, experience in negotiations and logistics as well as their ability to obtain volume discounts. See Item 7B. Related Party
Transactions. In addition, in recent years we have substituted a portion of our equipment purchased from foreign vendors with purchases from local suppliers. In 2005, we purchased approximately 57% of our equipment from local suppliers on an
invoiced basis, and we plan to continue this localization effort to diversify our supply source and reduce costs.

Our engineers begin
discussions with equipment manufacturers far in advance of the planned installation of equipment in a new fab, and we typically execute a letter of intent with the vendors in advance of our planned installation to ensure timely delivery of main
equipment with long-term delivery schedules. Engineers from our vendors typically accompany the new equipment to our fabs to assist in the installation process to ensure proper operation. To date, we have not experienced any material problems with
our equipment supplies or after-delivery services.

Quality Control

We believe that our advanced production capabilities and our reputation for high quality and reliable products have been important factors in attracting and retaining key customers. We have implemented quality
inspection and testing procedures at all of our fabs and assembly facilities. Our quality control procedures are carried out at three stages of the manufacturing process:



| |  |  | incoming quality control with respect to components and raw materials;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | in-process quality control, which is conducted at a series of control points in the manufacturing process; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | outgoing quality control, which focuses on packaging, delivery and post-delivery services to customers.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

With respect to incoming quality control, we perform quality control procedures for the raw materials and
components that we purchase. These procedures include testing samples of large batches, obtaining vendor testing reports and testing to ensure compatibility with other components and raw materials, as well as vendor qualification and vendor rating.
Our in-process quality control includes various programs designed to detect, as well as prevent, quality deviations, reduce manufacturing costs, ensure on-time delivery, increase in-process yields and improve field reliability of our products. We
perform outgoing quality control based on burn-in testing and final visual inspection of our products and accelerated life testing of samples. We inspect and test our completed display panels to ensure that they meet our high production standards.
We also provide post-delivery services to our customers, and maintain warranty exchange inventories in regional hubs to meet our customers needs.

Our quality control team works not only to ensure effective and consistent application of our quality control procedures, but also to introduce new methodologies, including six-sigma quality control. Our quality
control programs have received accredited ISO/TS 16949 certifications. The ISO/TS certification process involves subjecting our manufacturing processes and quality management systems to reviews and observation for various fixed periods. ISO/TS
certification is required by certain European countries in connection with sales of industrial products in those countries, and provides independent verification to our customers regarding the quality control measures employed in our manufacturing
and assembly processes.

Insurance

We
currently have insurance coverage for our production facilities in Gumi and Paju, Korea, and our research and development center in Anyang, Korea, for up to W2.5 trillion per claim, which includes business interruption coverage. We also have
insurance coverage for work-related injuries to our employees, accidents during overseas business travel, damage during construction, damage to products and equipment during shipment, damage to equipment during installation at our fabs, automobile
accidents, bodily injury and property damage from gas accidents, as well as mandatory unemployment insurance for our workers and director and officer liability insurance. In addition, we maintain general and product liability, employment practice
liability and aviation product liability. Our subsidiaries also have insurance coverage for damage to office fixtures and equipment, cargo insurance and life and disability insurance for their employees. Our subsidiary in Nanjing, China, also
carries property insurance for up to RMB 4,462 million, business interruption insurance for up to RMB 985 million and commercial general liability insurance for up to RMB 5 million.

Environmental Matters

Our production processes
generate various forms of chemical waste, waste water and other industrial waste at various stages in the manufacturing process. We have installed various types of anti-pollution equipment for the treatment of chemical waste and waste water and
equipment for the recycling of treated waste water in our facilities in Korea. We have also voluntarily agreed to reduce gases responsible for global warming, including per fluoro compounds, or PFCs, and sulfur hexafluoride, or SF6, gases, by
installing PFC abatement systems to meet voluntary emissions targets for the LCD industry by 2010. We installed such an abatement system in P1 in April 2005 and we intend to install similar abatement systems in our other production facilities. In
addition, in 2005, we became party to voluntary agreements, which reflect a coordinated energy conservation initiative between government and industry, with respect to our operation of P1, P2, P3, P4, P5 and the Gumi module production plant. In
accordance with such agreements, we have implemented a variety of energy-saving measures in those facilities, including installation of energy saving devices, consulting with energy conservation specialists and energy monitoring in Gumi. We also
intend to extend the voluntary agreements with respect to our operations at P6 in 2006.

Operations at our manufacturing plants are subject
to regulation and periodic monitoring by the Korean Ministry of Environment and local environmental protection authorities. We consult on an annual basis with the

LG Environment Strategy Institute with respect to our environmental compliance measures. We believe that we have adopted adequate anti-pollution measures for
the effective maintenance of environmental protection standards consistent with local industry practice, and that we are in compliance in all material respects with the applicable environmental laws and regulations in Korea. Expenditures related to
such compliance may be substantial. Such expenditures are generally included in capital expenditures. As required by Korean law, we employ licensed environmental specialists for each environmental area, including air quality, water quality, toxic
materials and radiation. We currently have ISO 14001 certifications with respect to the environmental record for P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, P6 and the Gumi module production plant, as well as our module production plant in Nanjing, China. We also intend to
apply for ISO 14001 certifications for our Paju production and assembly facilities.

We have been certified by the Korean Ministry of
Environment as an Environmentally Friendly Company since 1997 with respect to our environmental record for P1 and our module production plant in Gumi. We also intend to apply for certification as an Environmentally Friendly
Company with respect to P2 and P3.

We also have an internal monitoring system to control the use of hazardous substances in the
manufacture of our products as we are committed to compliance with all applicable environmental laws and regulations, including European Union RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC, which restricts the use of certain hazardous substances in the manufacture of
electrical and electronic equipment. We became the first TFT-LCD company in the world to receive Environmental Product Declaration, or EPD, certifications from the Swedish government for nine of our panel models in June 2005.

Current Facilities

We currently operate seven fabrication facilities, P1, P2, P3, P4, P5, P6 and P7, located in Gumi and Paju, Korea, and four assembly
facilities located in Gumi and Paju, Korea and Nanjing, China. We are currently in the preliminary stage of constructing P8 in Paju, Korea. In addition, we installed equipment that enables the manufacture of display panels using low temperature
polysilicon technology in a new facility, AP1, located in previously unused space in our P6 facility. We began mass production at AP1 in June 2005.

The following table sets forth the size, primary use and capacity of our fabrication facilities, research and development facility and assembly facilities:

Expansion Projects

We are building additional production and research and development facilities to meet forecasted increases in demand for our products.
In 2005, we built our seventh fabrication facility, or P7. We commenced mass production at P7 in January 2006. By the second quarter of 2006, we expect that P7 will reach a production capacity of 45,000 glass sheets per month. By the end of 2006, P7
is expected to reach its initial design capacity of 90,000 input sheets per month. We currently estimate that the construction and build-out of P7, at a capacity of 90,000 sheets per month, will cost approximately (Won)5.3 trillion in total. Our
total capital expenditure was (Won)4.4 trillion (US$4.4 billion) in 2005, of which (Won)3.2 trillion was attributable to capital expenditure for P7. We expect our capital expenditures for P7 to be approximately (Won)1.8 trillion in 2006. In
addition, we installed equipment in AP1, for the manufacture of display panels using low temperature polysilicon technology and commenced mass production at AP1 in June 2005. Currently, we are building our eighth fabrication facility, or P8, in our
Paju Display Cluster. Our estimated total capital expenditure for P8 is yet undecided as we continue to evaluate production capacity targets for P8. We expect P8s initial production capacity will depend on future growth trends in the TFT-LCD
panel market. We also broke ground on the new module production plant in Wroclaw, Poland in June 2006. We expect production at the Polish plant to commence in the first half of 2007 at an initial production capacity of 3 million modules per
year. We plan to invest a total of 429 million in the plant by 2011, at which time it is scheduled to reach its design capacity of 11 million units per year. We are currently expanding our module production plants in Nanjing, China. In
May 2006, we also entered into an investment agreement with the Guangzhou Development District Administrative Committee to construct a module production plant in Guangzhou, a city in southern China. We may undertake further expansion projects in the
future with respect to our existing facilities as our overall business strategy may require.

|Item 5A. | Operating Results
|-------- | -----------------

Overview

Our results of operations are affected principally by overall market conditions, our manufacturing productivity and costs, and our product mix.

Market Conditions

The TFT-LCD industry is affected by market conditions that are often outside the control of individual manufacturers. Our results of operations might fluctuate significantly from period to period due to market factors, such as seasonal
variations in consumer demand, surges in production capacity by competitors and changes in technology. Our industry has grown significantly in recent years as a result of cost reductions and product improvements that stimulated consumer demand and
supported the technology substitution of traditional CRT-based personal computer displays for TFT-LCD displays. According to DisplaySearch, unit sales across the TFT-LCD industry grew from 70 million units in 1999 to 941 million units in 2005.
Market revenues grew from US$14 billion to US$61 billion during the same period, showing a compounded annual growth rate of 27.8%.

While
the industry has grown rapidly, it has also experienced business cycles with significant and rapid price declines from time to time. Historically, TFT-LCD manufacturers typically increased display area fabrication capacity by about 50% year on year.
Capacity expansion above this growth rate can occur when several manufacturers ramp-up new factories at the same time. For example, several Taiwanese companies entered the TFT-LCD industry in 1999 and 2000. The industrys display area capacity
(or the total display surface area of all assembled panel products) more than doubled from 1999 to 2001, based on data from DisplaySearch. The above-average rate of supply growth combined with a decline in PC demand reduced average selling prices
for large-size TFT-LCD panels, or panels that are ten inches or larger, by approximately 49% from 1999 to 2001, based on data from DisplaySearch. During such surges in the rate of supply growth, resulting primarily from new plant investments by
Korean and Taiwanese manufacturers, our customers are able to exert downward pricing pressure, leading to sharp declines in average selling prices and significant fluctuations in our gross margins. In addition, regardless of relative capacity
expansion, we expect average selling prices for our existing products will decline as the cost of manufacturing declines due to technology advances and component cost reductions. Conversely, cost reductions, constraints in the industry supply chain
or increased demand for new technology products have led to increased prices for TFT-LCD displays in some past periods, most recently in 2004. The entire TFT-LCD industry was able to supply approximately one-half of the total display area demand in
2003 as consumers sought to substitute CRT-based personal computer displays with TFT-LCD displays. Thus, despite significant increases in total production capacity as competing fabrication plants commenced mass production on similar schedules,
consumer demand for flat-panel displays of larger average size absorbed the increased areal output. According to DisplaySearch, the average selling price for large-size (10-inch or larger) TFT-LCD panels decreased by approximately 21.3% from US$254
in 2004 to US$200 in 2005 as a result of LCD manufacturers increased production capacity, which resulted in an increased supply of TFT-LCD panels in 2005.

Our product cost and price vary with the product display area to a significant extent. Therefore, the average selling price of our products can vary over time as a result of business cycles and the choices we make in
capacity allocation for specific products. The overall average selling price of our display panels, including small- panels for applications other than computers or televisions, can fluctuate significantly. Our average selling price per panel for
panels used in notebook computers, desktop monitors and televisions increased by 2.7% from (Won)287,399 in 2003 to (Won)295,120 in 2004 and decreased by 25.4% to (Won)220,077 (US$217.90) per panel in 2005. We anticipate increased relative capacity
output in 2006 commensurate with prior years, depending in part on the ability of panel manufacturers to obtain raw materials and components, as competing panel manufacturers,

including us, commence production in new fabrication facilities. In line with historical trends in our industry, we anticipate that temporary surges in
capacity might put downward pressure on prices for our panels, but we expect that consumer demand for CRT substitutes will persist in the personal computer market and will continue to increase in the television market. During the initial stage of
market development for TFT-LCD desktop monitors we were able to capture price premiums for desktop monitor panels until we reduced prices in order to stimulate wider demand. Likewise, large-size television panels currently bring above-average prices
per square inch of screen area. In order to grow the TFT-LCD television market, we plan to follow a similar strategy to reduce prices, fuel consumer demand and mitigate anticipated increases in capacity in the TFT-LCD industry. This strategy may
result in a decrease in the overall average selling prices of our panels.

We strive to mitigate the effect of industry cyclicality and the
resulting price fluctuations by planning capacity expansions and capacity allocations, or shifting our product mix, to capture premium prices in specific emerging product categories. Since the formation of the joint venture in September 1999, we
expanded capacity and applied technology to take advantage of new demand for desktop monitors, which offered premium prices. More recently, we have expanded capacity and design capability toward high-definition television displays, which offer
premium prices. In the more developed market for portable computer displays, we shifted our focus to the emerging 15.0-inch category in early 2002 as revenue growth in the 12.1-inch, 13.3-inch and 14.1-inch categories slowed. Our P3 and P4 panel
factories are optimized for the efficient fabrication of 20.1-inch panels for desktop monitors and televisions, as well as 19-inch panels for desktop monitors, which have become fast-growing product categories. Our P5 factory is optimal for
producing 17-inch monitor panels that are fast becoming the most popular desktop monitor size. Our P6 factory, which began commercial production in August 2004, processes 1,500 x 1,850 mm glass substrates to fabricate large and wide monitor and
television displays. Our P7 factory, which began mass production in January 2006, processes 1,950 x 2,250 mm glass substrates and will be optimal for producing even larger-sized monitors and television displays, including 42-inch and 47-inch
wide-format display panels.

Manufacturing Productivity and Costs

We seek to continually enhance our manufacturing productivity and thereby reduce the cost of producing each panel. We have significantly expanded our
production capacity since the official launch of the joint venture by investing in fabs that can process increasingly larger-size glass substrates. The following table shows the input substrate size, initial design capacity and actual input capacity
as a result of ramp up for each of our fabs as of the dates indicated:

billion in 2003, (Won)3,885.7 billion in 2004 and (Won)4,166.2 billion (US$4,124.9 million) in 2005. Our depreciation expense as a percentage of sales
decreased from 15.7% in 2003 to 14.7% in 2004 but increased to 17.4% in 2005 primarily due to depreciation of P6, which began commercial production in August 2004. We expect our capital expenditures to increase significantly as:



| |  |  | we continue to develop our Paju Display Cluster, including the construction and build-out of P7, which cost approximately (Won)3.2 trillion in 2005. We estimate that the
construction and build-out of P7, at a capacity of 90,000 sheets per month, will cost approximately (Won)5.3 trillion in aggregate;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | we are currently in the preliminary stage of constructing our eighth fabrication facility, or P8, in our Paju Display Cluster. Our estimated total capital expenditure for P8 is yet
undecided as we continue to evaluate appropriate production capacity targets for P8, which will depend on future growth trends in the TFT-LCD panel market;

| |  |  | we broke ground for the construction of a new module production plant in Wroclaw, Poland in June 2006. We expect production at the Polish plant to commence in the first half of 2007
at an initial production capacity of 3 million modules per year. We plan to invest a total of 429 million in the plant by 2011, at which time it is scheduled to reach its design capacity of 11 million units per year; and

| |  |  | we are currently expanding our module production plants in Nanjing, China.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------

We have also entered into an investment agreement with the Guangzhou Development District Administrative Committee to construct a module production plant in Guangzhou, a city in southern China.

Since inception we have designed our fabs in-house and co-developed most equipment sets with our suppliers. These efforts have enabled us to gain
valuable experience in designing and operating next generation fabs capable of processing increasingly larger-size glass substrates. We have been able to leverage this experience to achieve and maintain high production output and yields at our fabs,
thereby lowering costs. For example, P4, the worlds first fifth-generation fab, began commercial production in March 2002 and reached its initial design capacity of 60,000 sheets per month by June 2003. Similarly, P5, also a fifth-generation
fab, began commercial production in May 2003 and reached its initial design capacity of 60,000 sheets per month by December 2003. P6, a sixth-generation fab which began commercial production in August 2004, reached its initial design capacity of
90,000 sheets per month in August 2005. In addition, in recent years we have substituted a portion of our equipment purchased from overseas suppliers with purchases from domestic vendors as part of our ongoing efforts to reduce our reliance on
overseas suppliers for key components and equipment. In 2005, we purchased approximately 57% of our equipment from local suppliers on an invoiced basis, and we plan to continue this localization effort to diversify our supply source and reduce
costs. We aim to actively facilitate the development of a domestic vendor base to take advantage of lower prices and to reduce our vulnerability to possible component shortages during times of surplus demand. We also fabricate certain components
internally, such as color filters, which are one of the industrys higher-cost components.

We also continue to make various process
improvements at our fabs, including enhancing the performance of process equipment, efficiency of material flows and quality of process and product designs. For example, we have reduced the number of mask steps in the TFT process from five to four,
thereby enabling us to process a higher number of substrates in a given period of time. Such process improvements result in increased unit output of our fabs without significant capital investment, thus enabling us to reduce fixed costs on a per
panel basis.

Raw materials comprise the largest component of our costs. Over the past several years we have consistently increased the
proportion of our raw material purchases from local suppliers, who typically offer lower prices compared to overseas suppliers. In 2005, approximately 81% of our raw materials were sourced from local suppliers. We have also been able to leverage our
scale and leading industry position to obtain competitive prices from our suppliers. Certain strategic decisions, such as fabricating our own color filters, one of the higher cost components, have also been important drivers of our cost control.

The size of our operations has also expanded considerably from 2002 to date, enabling us to benefit from
economies of scale. As a result of the above factors, our cost of sales per panel, including small-size display panels, or panels smaller than 10 inches in size, decreased from (Won)175,965 in 2003 to (Won)119,552 in 2004 and (Won)91,780 (US$90.9)
in 2005.

Product Mix

Our product mix reflects our strategic capacity allocation among various TFT-LCD product markets, and is continually reviewed and adjusted based on the demand for, and our assessment of the profitability of, display panels in different
market and size categories. For example, beginning in 2001, there has been a greater demand for notebook computers with bigger screens, which led us to change our product mix to include more 15.0-inch panels and fewer 13.3-inch panels for notebook
computers. We increased our sales of 18-inch panels for desktop monitors significantly beginning in 2002 to capture the emerging market for larger-size desktop monitors and now we offer 19-inch, 20-inch, 20-inch wide-format XGA and 30-inch WQXGA+
panels for desktop monitors. In addition to increases in sales of panels for computer products, we increased our sales of panels for televisions in 2003, 2004 and 2005 in response to a notable rise in consumer acceptance and demand for televisions
using TFT-LCD panels. We have the flexibility to increase the production and sales of 17-inch wide-format, 19-inch, 32-inch wide-format, 37-inch wide-format and 42-inch wide-format panels as demand grows for these larger sizes. As a result of our
product mix shift to target larger-size panels that command higher prices as well as an increase in overall sales, we were able to alleviate to a large extent the negative effect of price declines in 2003, 2004 and 2005 in most of our product
categories. Our average selling price per panel for panels used in notebook computers, desktop monitors and televisions decreased by 9.5% from (Won)317,653 per panel in 2002 to (Won)287,399 in 2003, increased by 2.7% to (Won)295,120 in 2004 and
decreased by 25.4% to (Won)220,077 (US$217.9) in 2005.

Our product portfolio also includes small-size display panels for handheld
application products, such as mobile phones and personal digital assistants, and large-size display panels for industrial and other products, such as entertainment systems, automobile navigation systems, aircraft instrumentation and medical
diagnostic equipment. Sales of our small-size display panels, or panels smaller than 10 inches in size, for these applications increased from 0.1 million in 2002 to 6.1 million in 2003, 25.1 million in 2004 and 51.0 million in
2005, principally as a result of increased demand for handheld application products. This substantial increase in unit sales of small-size display panels partially contributed to lower our overall average selling price on a per panel basis in 2003,
2004 and 2005 as a result of the significantly lower prices that such panels command.

Critical Accounting
Policies

The preparation of our financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates
and judgments that affect the reported amounts in our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Our estimates and judgments are based on historical experience, forecasted future events and various other assumptions that we believe
to be reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates and judgments may differ under different assumptions or conditions. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We believe the critical accounting policies discussed below are the
most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations. Each of them is dependent on projections of future market conditions, and they require our management to make the most difficult, subjective or complex
judgments.

Income Taxes

We value our deferred income tax assets on an ongoing basis. We currently have significant deferred income tax assets, including tax credits, that may be used to offset taxable income in future periods. Our ability to utilize deferred
income tax assets is dependent on our ability to generate future taxable income sufficient to utilize these tax credits before their expiration. See note 12 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in this annual report. In our
evaluation of future utilization of income tax assets, if current results suggest that it is more likely than not that a portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized before their expiration, a valuation allowance will be
recognized. The change in the valuation allowance in any

##### Table of Contents

period is included in the calculation of income tax provision. In determining whether the deferred income tax assets are likely to be realized, management
takes many factors into account, including our ability to generate taxable income, the overall industry outlook and the outlook for the Korean economy.

Changes in our evaluation of our deferred income tax assets from period to period could have a significant effect on our net results and financial condition.

Allowance for Accounts Receivable

We evaluate our outstanding accounts receivable balance on a regular basis to determine whether to record an allowance for doubtful accounts. Our evaluation includes an analysis of the number of days outstanding for each outstanding account
receivable and our historical experience. We provide an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the aggregate estimated collectibility of our accounts receivable.

Warranty Reserve

We record warranty liabilities for the estimated costs that we may incur
under our basic limited warranty for our products. This warranty covers defective products and is normally valid for eighteen months from the date of purchase. These liabilities are accrued when product revenues are recognized. Warranty costs
primarily include raw materials and labor costs. Factors that affect our warranty liability include historical and anticipated rate of warranty claims on repairs and cost per claim to satisfy our warranty obligation. As these factors are impacted by
actual experience and future expectations, we periodically assess the adequacy of our recorded warranty liabilities and adjust the amounts as necessary.

Long-Lived Assets: Useful Lives, Valuation and Impairment

Property, plant and equipment are
recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation over the estimated useful lives of the individual assets, with depreciation calculated on a straight line basis. The determination of an assets useful life requires judgment based on our
historical and anticipated use of the asset. Since 1999, all new machinery, equipment and vehicles are being depreciated on a straight-line basis over four years.

We review our long-lived assets and intangible assets that do not have indefinite lives for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be
recoverable. When aggregate undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized based on the fair value of the asset. Fair value is determined using a variety of alternative sources,
including sales to third parties, comparison to other assets with a similar use and the preparation of discounted future cash flows. The determination of undiscounted future cash flows and fair value requires our judgments and assumptions about
future operations. The determination of an assets useful life, and the potential impairment of our long-lived assets could have a material effect on our results of operations.

Description of Certain Statement of Income Items

Sales

Our sales are derived primarily from sales of TFT-LCD panels. We also derive a small amount of revenues from backlight units and other parts and
accessories that we sell to third parties. Prices for our TFT-LCD panels are generally determined based on prevailing market conditions and our negotiations with end-brand customers, which take into account the complexity of the product
specifications, the labor and technology involved in the design or production processes and the strength and history of our relationship with the end-brand customer.

center in Anyang, Korea, and, to a lesser extent, expenses relating to the depreciation and maintenance of the equipment and materials used at the research and development center in Anyang, Korea.

Operating Results

TFT-LCD technology is currently
the most widely used flat panel display technology and, according to DisplaySearch, TFT-LCD display products accounted for approximately 81% of total flat panel display market revenues in 2005. Since commercial production of TFT-LCD products began
in the 1990s, TFT-LCD has emerged as the dominant technology for notebook computers, captured increasing market share in desktop monitors and experienced high growth in penetrating the television market. This trend has primarily been driven by
certain attractive physical (slimness, flatness, lighter weight, portability), electrical (lower power consumption, lower radiation) and visual (higher resolution, more stable picture quality, no flickering) attributes of TFT-LCD products. The
increase in our sales from W6,098.4 billion in 2003 to W8,324.8 billion in 2004 and W10,075.6 billion (US$9,975.8 million) in 2005 reflects the rapidly expanding TFT-LCD display market. Advances in TFT-LCD technology and broader applications for
TFT-LCD display products continue to present new and profitable opportunities for TFT-LCD manufacturers. We continually adjust our product mix to include emerging large display area product categories which typically command higher prices. On an
annual basis, our gross margin has steadily increased from 22.3% in 2003 to 25.0% in 2004, but declined to 10.0% in 2005 due to unfavorable market conditions, principally decreases in our average selling prices.

Notwithstanding the general increase in our sales, in 2005, our purchases from related parties, including our affiliates LG Electronics and LG
International, decreased, primarily due to the disaffiliation of GS Engineering & Construction from the LG Group, which occurred in January 2005. All of our related party transactions are conducted on an arms-length basis. Our total
purchases of materials, equipment, components and services from LG Electronics and its affiliated companies, excluding LG International and its subsidiaries, amounted to 28.4% of our total purchases of materials, equipment, components and services
in 2003, 21.2% in 2004 and 13.7% (excluding services purchased from GS Engineering & Construction which, as of January 2005, is no longer an affiliated company of the LG Group) in 2005. Our purchases of materials, equipment and components
from LG International and its subsidiaries amounted to 17.5% of our total material, equipment and component purchases in 2003, 22.4% in 2004 and 16.7% in 2005. Our purchases of material, equipment and components from LG International and its
subsidiaries as well as unaffiliated vendors depend primarily on the level of our capital expenditures.

Comparison of 2005 to 2004

Sales

Our sales increased by 21.0% from W8,324.8 billion in 2004 to W10,075.6 billion
(US$9,975.8 million) in 2005. Significant increases in unit sales of our large-size panels for televisions were the primary contributing factors to this increase. In particular:



| |  |  | unit sales of 32.0-inch panels for televisions increased by more than ten-fold from 0.1 million panels in 2004 to 1.4 million panels in 2005;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | unit sales of 26.0-inch panels for televisions increased by more than three-fold from 0.3 million panels in 2004 to 1.1 million panels in 2005;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | unit sales of 37.0-inch panels for televisions increased by more than twenty-fold from 27,000 panels in 2004 to 0.7 million panels in 2005; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | unit sales of 42.0-inch panels for televisions increased by more than twenty-fold from 8,000 panels in 2004 to 0.2 million panels in 2005.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The total unit sales of panels for televisions increased by 156.9% from approximately 2.4 million in 2004 to 6.2 million in 2005. Total sales
attributable to television panels increased by 141.2% from approximately W1,162.8 billion in 2004 to W2,805.0 billion in 2005. Growth in total sales of panels for televisions primarily reflected increased demand for larger- and wider-sized panels,
which more than offset a decrease in the average selling price for our television panels in 2005.

While the total unit sales of panels for
notebook computers and desktop monitors increased significantly in 2005, sales attributable to panels for notebook computers were flat and sales attributable to panels for desktop monitors increased by only 1.7% due to decreases in their average
selling prices. The increase in total unit sales of panels for notebook computers and desktop monitors primarily reflected growing market demand for larger-sized panels, particularly 15.0-inches or larger for notebook computers and 17.0-inches or
larger for desktop monitors.

The effect of the overall increase in unit sales was partially offset by a decrease in the average selling
price of panels for notebook computers and televisions from 2004 to 2005. The average selling price of panels for

##### Table of Contents

notebook computers decreased 34.7% from W232,219 in 2004 to W151,687 (US$150.2) in 2005, the average selling price of panels for desktop monitors decreased
34.2% from W302,904 in 2004 to W199,283 (US$197.3) in 2005 and the average selling price of panels for televisions decreased 6.1% from W484,382 to W454,748 (US$450.2) over the same period.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales
increased by 45.2% from W6,246.2 billion in 2004 to W9,069.8 billion (US$8,980.0 million) in 2005. As a percentage of sales, cost of sales increased from 75.0% in 2004 to 90.0% in 2005. The increase in our cost of sales in 2005 was attributable
primarily to increases in:



| |  |  | raw material costs, resulting from an overall increase in sales volume, especially of large-size panels, partially offset by our ongoing raw material cost reduction efforts;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | depreciation expenses, resulting from the commencement of depreciation of P6, which began commercial production in August 2004, partially offset by lower depreciation of P1, P2 and
P3;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | overhead costs, primarily resulting from expenses related to expansion of existing facilities and expenses due to increased production capacity, including utility fees, supply costs
and freight and insurance expenses; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | labor costs, resulting from an increase in the number of production employees hired to meet the operating demands of P6 and an increase in wage rates.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As a percentage of our total cost of sales, raw material costs decreased slightly from 2004 to 2005, as labor costs decreased slightly but depreciation
expenses increased slightly, from 2004 to 2005.

Cost of sales per panel decreased by 23.2% from W119,552 in 2004 to W91,780 (US$90.9) in
2005 reflecting our ongoing cost reduction efforts, particularly in managing raw material costs by procuring raw materials on a large scale at favorable prices from strategic suppliers and significant increases in unit sales of other small-sized
application products, which are generally less costly to produce than panels in our other product categories. In 2005, we continued to improve production efficiency at our fabs, produce color filters in-house and reduce common components and
processing steps in the manufacturing process.

Gross Profit (Loss) and Gross Margin

As a result of the cumulative effect of the reasons explained above, our gross profit decreased 51.6% from W2,078.6 billion in 2004 to W1,005.7 billion
(US$995.8 million) in 2005 and our gross margin declined from 25.0% to 10.0% over the same period.

Selling, General and
Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 65.9% from W318.4 billion in 2004 to W528.1
billion (US$522.9 million) in 2005. As a percentage of sales, our selling, general and administrative expenses increased from 3.8% in 2004 to 5.2% in 2005. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in 2005 was attributable
primarily to increases in:



| |  |  | shipping and handling cost, which is based on unit weight, resulting from increased sales volume, especially of larger size panels, and, to a lesser extent, increases in
shipping rates, fuel surcharges and sales to more geographically distant markets such as Europe;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | research and development expenses, consisting primarily of salaries paid to research and development personnel at our research and development center in Anyang, resulting from an
increase in the number of research and development employees in Anyang and an increase in wage rates;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | advertising expenses, which include fees paid to LG Corp. and Philips Electronics for the use of the LG and Philips brand logos, which we began paying in
2005; and

As a percentage of our total selling, general and administrative expenses, salaries, bonuses and
retirement pay, as well as research and development expenses decreased from 2004 to 2005, while shipping and handling cost increased from 2004 to 2005.

Operating Income (Loss) and Operating Margin

As a result of the cumulative effect of the
reasons explained above, our operating income decreased by 72.9% from (Won)1,760.1 billion in 2004 to (Won)477.6 billion (US$472.9 million) in 2005. Our operating margin decreased from 21.1% to 4.7% over the same period.

Other Income (Expense)

Other
income (expense) includes primarily interest income (expense) and net foreign exchange gain (loss). Our total other expense increased nearly four-fold from (Won)18.3 billion in 2004 to (Won)72.7 billion (US$72.0 million) in 2005, primarily due to:



| |  |  | an increase in net interest expense from (Won)38.1 billion in 2004 to (Won)56.9 billion (US$56.4 million) in 2005 primarily due to a significant increase in interest expense from
(Won)58.0 billion in 2004 to (Won)107.5 billion (US$106.5 million) in 2005 reflecting increased levels of long-term debt over the same period, which more than offset an increase in interest income from (Won)20.0 billion in 2004 to (Won)50.6 billion

Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes

We reported income tax benefit of (Won)136.7 billion (US$135.4 million) in 2005, while in 2004 we reported a provision for income taxes of (Won)38.1 billion. This change was primarily due to the lower income before
income taxes we recorded in 2005 and the effects of our application of (Won)176.0 billion in investment tax credit.

Net Income
(Loss)

As a result of the cumulative effect of the reasons explained above, our net income decreased by 68.2% from (Won)1,703.7
billion in 2004 to (Won)541.6 billion (US$536.3 million) in 2005.

Comparison of 2004 to 2003

Sales

Our sales increased by
36.5% from (Won)6,098.4 billion in 2003 to (Won)8,324.8 billion in 2004. Significant increases in unit sales of our large-size panels for notebook computers, desktop monitors and televisions were the primary contributing factors to this increase. In
particular:



| |  |  | unit sales of 17.0-inch panels for desktop monitors increased by 112.8% from 3.4 million panels in 2003 to 7.2 million panels in 2004;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | unit sales of 15.0-inch panels for notebook computers increased by 32.2% from 4.0 million panels in 2003 to 5.3 million panels in 2004;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | unit sales of 19.0-inch panels for desktop monitors increased from fewer than 100 thousand panels in 2003 to 1.9 million panels in 2004;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | unit sales of 20.1-inch panels for desktop monitors increased by 177.1% from 0.4 million panels in 2003 to 1.2 million panels in 2004; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | combined unit sales of large panels for televisions, primarily in the 15.0-inch, 17.1-inch wide format, 20.1-inch and 30.0-inch wide-format categories, increased by 77.7% from
1.4 million panels in 2003 to 2.4 million panels in 2004.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As a result of a shift in market demand in 2004 toward
larger-size panels, primarily 15.0 inches or larger, we experienced a notable decrease in unit sales of our 13.3-inch and 14.1-inch panels for notebook computers from 2003 to 2004. Unit sales of 13.3-inch panels for notebook computers decreased from
0.3 million panels in 2003 to fewer than one thousand panels in 2004. Unit sales of 14.1-inch panels for notebook computers decreased 42.2% from 1.8 million panels to 1.0 million panels over the same period. In addition, unit sales of
18.1-inch panels decreased 73.5% from 2.0 million to 0.5 million from 2003 to 2004 due to a shift in demand toward 17.0-inch and 17.1-inch wide-format panels.

The effect of the overall increase in unit sales was partially offset by a decrease in the average selling price of panels for notebook computers and televisions from 2003 to 2004. The average selling price of panels
for notebook computers decreased 1.3% from (Won)235,162 in 2003 to (Won)232,219 in 2004 and the average selling price of panels for televisions decreased 4.6% from (Won)507,535 to (Won)484,382 over the same period. The average selling price of
panels for desktop monitors, however, increased 2.7% from (Won)294,841 in 2003 to (Won)302,904 in 2004.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales increased by 31.7% from (Won)4,741.6 billion in 2003 to (Won)6,246.2 billion in 2004. As a percentage of sales, however, cost of sales decreased from 77.8% in 2003 to 75.0% in 2004. The increase in our
cost of sales in 2004 was attributable primarily to increases in:



| |  |  | raw material costs, resulting from an overall increase in sales volume, especially of large-size panels, partially offset by our ongoing raw material cost reduction efforts;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | depreciation expenses, resulting from the commencement of depreciation of P6, which began commercial production in August 2004, partially offset by lower depreciation of P1, P2 and
P3; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | labor costs, resulting from an increase in the number of production employees hired to meet the operating demands of P6, an increase in wage rates and special performance bonuses.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As a percentage of our total cost of sales, raw material costs increased from 2003 to 2004 while depreciation expenses
decreased and labor costs remained constant from 2003 to 2004.

Cost of sales per panel decreased by 32.1% from (Won)175,965 in 2003 to
(Won)119,552 in 2004 reflecting our ongoing cost reduction efforts, particularly in managing raw material costs by procuring raw materials on a large scale at favorable prices from strategic suppliers, as well as a shift in product mix to
larger-size panels. In 2004, we continued to improve production efficiency at our fabs, produce color filters in-house and reduce common components and processing steps in the manufacturing process.

Gross Profit (Loss) and Gross Margin

As a result of the cumulative effect of the reasons explained above, our gross profit increased 53.2% from (Won)1,356.8 billion in 2003 to (Won)2,078.6 billion in 2004 and our gross margin improved from 22.3% to 25.0% over the same period.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by 35.8% from (Won)234.5 billion in 2003 to (Won)318.4 billion in 2004. As a percentage of sales, however, our selling, general and administrative expenses
remained the same at 3.8% in both 2003 and 2004. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in 2004 was attributable primarily to increases in:



| |  |  | salaries, bonuses and retirement pay, resulting from an increase in the number of selling and administrative staff hired to meet the operating demands of P6 and P7, an increase in
wage rates and higher special performance bonuses;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | research and development expenses, consisting primarily of salaries paid to research and development personnel at our research and development center in Anyang, resulting from an
increase in the number of research and development employees in Anyang and an increase in wage rates; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | shipping and handling cost, which is based on unit weight, resulting from increased sales volume, especially of larger size panels, and, to a lesser extent, increases in shipping
rates, fuel surcharges and sales to more geographically distant markets such as Europe.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As a percentage of our total
selling, general and administrative expenses, salaries, bonuses and retirement pay decreased from 2003 to 2004 while research and development expenses remained constant and shipping and handling cost increased from 2003 to 2004.

Operating Income (Loss) and Operating Margin

As a result of the cumulative effect of the reasons explained above, our operating income increased by 56.8% from (Won)1,122.2 billion in 2003 to
(Won)1,760.1 billion in 2004. Our operating margin improved from 18.4% to 21.1% over the same period.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) includes primarily interest income (expense) and net foreign exchange gain (loss). Our total other expense
decreased by 70.1% from (Won)61.2 billion in 2003 to (Won)18.3 billion in 2004, primarily due to:



| |  |  | a decrease in net interest expense from (Won)77.2 billion in 2003 to (Won)38.1 billion in 2004 primarily due to a significant increase in interest income from (Won)6.4 billion in
2003 to (Won)20.0 billion in 2004 reflecting increased cash holdings over the same period. Refinancing of our Won-denominated debentures and the issuance of U.S. dollar-denominated floating rate notes with low interest rates also contributed to the
decrease in our net interest expense; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an increase in net foreign exchange gain from (Won)15.0 billion in 2003 to (Won)19.1 billion in 2004 as a result of a (Won)172.0 billion foreign exchange translation gain in 2004
due to appreciation of the Korean Won against the U.S. dollar and our use of foreign exchange forward contracts to mitigate the impact of foreign currency gains or losses.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes

We reported a provision for income taxes of (Won)38.1 billion in 2004, while in 2003 we reported a provision for income taxes of (Won)54.6 billion. This change was primarily due to the higher income before income taxes we recorded in 2004.

Net Income (Loss)

As a result of the cumulative effect of the reasons explained above, our net income increased by 69.3% from (Won)1,006.5 billion in 2003 to (Won)1,703.7 billion in 2004.



|Item 5B. | Liquidity and Capital Resources
|-------- | -------------------------------

Since 2003, our principal sources of cash have been cash flow from our operating activities and debt and equity financing. We had cash and cash equivalents of (Won)504.0 billion, (Won)1,361.2 billion and (Won)1,579.4 billion (US$1,563.8
million) as of December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. Our primary use of cash has been to fund capital expenditures related to the expansion of our production capacity, including the construction and ramping-up of new fabs and the
acquisition of new equipment. We also use cash flow from operations for our working capital requirements, servicing our debt payments and payment of technology license fees. We expect our cash requirements for 2006 to be primarily for capital
expenditures.

Although we have historically been able to satisfy our cash requirements from cash flow from operations and debt financing,
our ability to continue to do so will be affected by our ability to maintain and improve our margins and, in the case of external financing, market conditions, which in turn may be affected by several factors outside of our control. We re-evaluate
our capital requirements regularly in light of our cash flow from operations, the progress of our expansion plans and market conditions. To the extent that we do not generate sufficient cash flow from our operations to meet our capital requirements,
we may rely on other financing activities, such as external long-term borrowings and offerings of debt securities, including the issuance of equity, equity-linked and other debt securities. Since the second quarter of 2003, we began to gradually
increase our cash holdings to better reflect the extent of our operating and investing activities.

##### Table of Contents

Our net cash provided by operating activities amounted to (Won)1,671.8 billion in 2003, (Won)2,742.9
billion in 2004 and (Won)2,108.7 billion (US$2,087.8 million) in 2005. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities in 2003 and 2004 was due primarily to the increase in cash receipts from our sales, which outpaced the increase in our
cash expenditures. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities in 2005 was due primarily to the decrease in net income. Our net income increased from (Won)1,006.5 billion in 2003 to (Won)1,703.7 billion in 2004, but decreased to
(Won)541.6 billion (US$536.3 million) in 2005. Accounts receivable increased by (Won)607.5 billion in 2003, in line with increased sales, decreased by (Won)205.0 billion in 2004, primarily due to our accounts receivable securitization program,
which, in 2004, totaled approximately (Won)245.9 billion, and increased by (Won)400.8 billion (US$396.9 million) in 2005, primarily as a result of an increase in sales revenues.The increase in net cash provided by operating activities in
2004 was partially reduced by an increase in inventories in the amount of (Won)468.2 billion in the same period, which reflected a higher level of finished products, work-in-process and raw materials as a result of increased sales activities and
projected demand growth for the following years. Conversely, the decrease in net cash provided by operating activities in 2005 was partially offset by a decrease in inventories in the amount of (Won)114.5 billion (US$113.4 million) in 2005,
primarily as a result of continued improvements in inventory management coupled with increased customer demand.

The cyclical market
conditions that are characteristic of our industry, as well as the regular ramp-up of our new fabs, contribute to the fluctuations in our inventory levels from period to period. We began commercial production at P4 in March 2002 and at P6 in August
2004 and at P7 in January 2006. In 2004, an increase in our production output primarily resulted in a 139.4% increase in our inventories from year-end 2003. In 2005, strong demand and an expanding TFT-LCD market caused a 14.2% decrease in our
inventory levels from year-end 2004. Inventories comprised the following for the periods indicated:

Our net cash used in investing activities amounted to (Won)1,452.7 billion in 2003, (Won)3,892.8
billion in 2004 and (Won)4,197.9 billion (US$4,156.3 million) in 2005. Net cash used in investing activities primarily reflected the substantial capital expenditures we have invested in connection with the expansion of our production capacity in
recent years, mainly relating to construction of our new fabrication facilities and acquisition of new equipment. These cash outflows from capital expenditures amounted to (Won)1,438.2 billion, (Won)3,885.7 billion and (Won)4,166.2 billion
(US$4,124.9 million) in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. We intend to fund our capital requirements associated with capacity expansion projects, including the expansion of our seventh fabrication facility, or P7, and the construction of our eighth
fabrication facility, or P8, and our new Polish plant with cash flow from operations and other financing activities, such as external long-term borrowings and securities offerings. Through the end of 2005, we had used the combined gross proceeds of
(Won)2,651.0 billion (US$2,624.8 million) from our initial public offering of shares of common stock and ADSs and follow-on offering of ADSs in July 2005 to fund our expansion projects, including construction of P7 and to pay our initial public
offering and follow-on offering expenses.

We currently expect our capital expenditures to be approximately (Won)4.2 trillion in 2006,
primarily to fund capacity expansion of P7, the construction of P8 and the new module production plant in Poland and improvements to our pre-existing facilities. However, our overall expenditure levels and our allocation among projects are subject
to many uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control. We review the amount of our capital expenditures quarterly and may make adjustments from time to time based on cash flow from operations, the progress of our expansion plans and market
conditions.

Our net cash provided by financing activities amounted to (Won)214.8 billion in 2003, (Won)2,008.8
billion in 2004 and (Won)2,307.7 billion (US$2,284.8 million) in 2005. The significant amount of net cash provided by financing activities in 2005 reflects primarily proceeds to us from our (Won)1,422.0 billion (US$1,407.9 million) follow-on
offering of ADSs, the issuance of US$475 million in aggregate principal amount of zero coupon convertible bonds and the issuance of (Won)600 billion in domestic debentures. The net cash provided by these financing activities was partially offset by
a repayment of US$200.0 million of U.S. dollar-denominated floating rate notes, term notes and term loan. We have not declared any dividends since 2001.

We had a total of (Won)483.2 billion and (Won)309.0 billion (US$305.9 million) outstanding under short-term borrowings as of December 31, 2004 and 2005, respectively. The weighted average interest rate under the
terms of these short-term borrowings was 5.2% as of December 31, 2005. All of our short-term borrowings are loans from local and foreign banks extended to us or our subsidiaries.

We have in place overdraft agreements with various banks in the amount of (Won)59.0 billion that are renewable on a yearly basis. There were no drawdowns
under these agreements as of December 31, 2005.In addition, we also maintain a revolving credit facility with certain banks in the aggregate amount of approximately (Won)400.0 billion and a long-term credit facility in the amount of
(Won)150 billion. As of December 31, 2005, we had no amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility and a long-term credit facility.

As of December 31, 2005, we had outstanding long-term debt including current portion and discounts on debentures in the amount of (Won)3,293.5 billion (US$3,260.9 million), primarily consisting of (Won)1,924.5 billion of Korean
Won-denominated debentures, US$475.0 million convertible bonds, US$382.5 million aggregate principal amount of U.S. dollar-denominated senior floating rate notes and term notes, US$325.8 million of long-term loan and RMB263.0 million long-term loan.

As of December 31, 2005, US$430.0 million of our US$1,183.3 million aggregate principal amount of U.S. dollar-denominated long-term
borrowings are hedged against foreign exchange rate and interest rate fluctuations.

We issued (Won)200 billion principal amount of
five-year debentures in July 2001, (Won)300 billion principal amount of five-year debentures in November 2002, (Won)250 billion principal amount of five-year debentures in October 2003, (Won)300 billion principal amount of five-year debentures in
May 2004, (Won)300 billion principal amount of five-year debentures in November 2004, (Won)400 billion principal amount of five-year debentures in March 2005 and (Won)200 billion principal amount of five-year debentures in December 2005.

Terms of our U.S. dollar-denominated senior floating rate notes and Korean Won-denominated debentures contain provisions that would trigger a
requirement for early payment. The principal and interest under these obligations may be accelerated if there is a default, including defaults triggered by failure to comply with financial covenants and cross defaults triggered under our other debt
obligations.

Our debt obligations as of December 31, 2005 are set forth below:

##### Table of Contents

We have not entered into any financial guarantees or similar commitments to guarantee the payment
obligations of our subsidiaries or other third parties.

Set forth below are the aggregate amounts, as of December 31, 2005, of our
future contractual financing and licensing obligations under our existing debt and other contractual arrangements:

In addition to fixed license payments listed above that we are obligated to make under certain
technology license agreements, we also have continuing obligations to make cash royalty payments under our technology license agreements, the amount of which are generally determined based on a percentage of sales of our TFT-LCD products.

Expenses relating to our license fees and royalty payments under existing license agreements were (Won)39.0 billion in 2003, (Won)43.7
billion in 2004 and (Won)47.1 billion (US$46.4 million) in 2005, representing 23.1% of our research and development expenses in 2003, 17.1% in 2004 and 12.9% in 2005. We expect to make additional license fee payments as we enter into new technology
license agreements from time to time with third parties.

Material Related Party Transactions

We engage from time to time in a variety of transactions with related parties. See Item 7B. Related Party Transactions.

We sell TFT-LCD panels, primarily large-size panels for notebook computers, desktop monitors and televisions, to LG Electronics (including its overseas
subsidiaries) and certain of its affiliates on a regular basis. Pricing and other principal terms of the sales to LG Electronics are negotiated on an arms-length basis and are substantially the same as those for our non-affiliated end-brand
customers. Until 2003, LG Electronics purchased a portion of its large-size panel requirements through Serveone (formerly LG MRO), a company that procures and purchases various materials, equipment and services for affiliated companies of LG
Electronics. LG Electronics no longer purchases such panels from Serveone. Sales to LG Electronics (including its overseas subsidiaries) on an invoiced basis, which include sales to LG Electronics as an end-brand customer and system integrator,
including sales through Serveone, amounted to (Won)1,527.6 billion, or 25.1% of our sales, in 2003, (Won)1,607.1 billion, or 19.3% of our sales, in 2004 and (Won)1,821.5 billion (US$1,803.5 million), or 18.1% of our sales, in 2005.

We also sell large-size TFT-LCD panels for desktop monitors and televisions to Philips Electronics and its affiliates on a regular basis. Pricing and
other principal terms of the sales are negotiated on an arms-length basis and are substantially the same as those for our non-affiliated end-brand customers. Sales to Philips Electronics and its affiliates on an invoiced basis, which include
sales to Philips Electronics as an end-brand customer and system integrator, amounted to (Won)603.6 billion, or 9.9% of our sales, in 2003, (Won)1,210.9 billion, or 14.5% of our sales, in 2004 and (Won)1,323.6 billion (US$1,310.5 million), or 13.1%
of our sales, in 2005.

We also purchase driver integrated circuits from Philips Electronics semiconductor division under a
volume and price agreement. These purchases amounted to (Won)37.1 billion, (Won)52.3 billion and (Won)52.2 billion (US$51.7 million) in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively.

We sell our products to certain subsidiaries of LG International in regions where we do not have a sales subsidiary, or where doing so is consistent with local market practices. These subsidiaries of LG International
process orders from and distribute products to customers located in their region. Sales to LG International and its subsidiaries on an aggregate basis amounted to 10.0%, 5.5% and 7.4% in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. We sell our products to LG
International and its subsidiaries at a market price determined on an arms-length basis.

In addition, we procure a portion of our
production materials, equipment and components from LG Internationals overseas subsidiaries in Japan, Europe and the United States. Purchase prices we pay to these subsidiaries and other terms of our transactions with them are determined on an
arms-length basis. Our purchases of materials, equipment and components from LG International and its subsidiaries amounted to (Won)768.2 billion, or 17.5% of our total material, equipment and component purchases, in 2003, (Won)1,652.4
billion, or 22.4%, in 2004 and (Won)1,338.1 billion (US$1,324.8 million), or 16.7%, in 2005. We also purchase raw materials, equipment, components and other materials or services necessary for our production process, construction materials as well
as construction and engineering services from LG Electronics and its affiliated companies, including LG Chem Ltd., Serveone (formerly LG MRO) and GS Engineering & Construction Co., Ltd. As of January 2005, GS Engineering &
Construction is no longer an affiliated company of the LG Group. Our total purchases of materials, equipment, components and services from LG Electronics and its affiliated companies, excluding LG International and its subsidiaries, amounted to
(Won)1,333.0 billion, or 28.4% of our total purchases of materials, equipment, components and services, in 2003, (Won)1,747.2 billion, or 21.2%, in 2004 and (Won)1,258.6 billion (US$1,246.2 million), or 13.7%, in 2005.

Taxation

The effective statutory corporate income
tax rate currently applicable to us is 14.3% for the first (Won)100 million of our taxable income and 27.5% for our taxable income in excess of (Won)100 million for each fiscal year beginning on or after January 1, 2005. Prior to its amendment
in accordance with the Corporation Tax Law enacted in December 2003, the tax rate applicable to us was 16.5% and 29.7%, respectively. We have calculated our deferred income tax assets as of December 31, 2004 taking into consideration the change
in effective tax rate beginning on January 1, 2005.

Tax Exemptions

Under the Special Tax Treatment Control Law of Korea, we are entitled, beginning in August 1999 when we registered Philips Electronics investment in
us, to the following tax exemptions:



| |  |  | an exemption from corporate income tax in an amount proportional to the percentage of foreign direct equity investment in us for the first seven taxable years following such
investment and at one-half of that percentage for the three taxable years thereafter;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | an exemption from local taxes, such as registration tax and property tax, in an amount proportional to the percentage of foreign direct equity investment in us for the first five
taxable years following such investment and at one-half of that percentage for the three taxable years thereafter (the exemption rate may be further increased and the applicable period further extended pursuant to local ordinances);
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a reduction, in an amount proportional to the percentage of the foreign direct equity investment in us for the first seven taxable years and at one-half of that percentage for three
years thereafter, in withholding on dividends to foreign investors who directly acquired new shares issued by us through a foreign direct investment under the Foreign Investment Promotion Act of Korea; and
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | 100% exemption for three taxable years from customs duties and value-added tax on capital equipment imported directly for use in our business, up to the amount of the foreign direct
equity investment in us.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In 2005, we received a tax benefit of (Won)35.1 billion (US$34.7 million), or 8.7% of income before
income taxes, as a result of Philips Electronics 41.33% weighted average ownership in us before and after our follow-on offering. Until 2008, we will lose 0.137% of the tax exemption benefit with respect to income generated from our TFT-LCD
business for each 1% reduction in Philips Electronics ownership in us, assuming that the income tax rate applicable to us is the same as that in 2005. After 2008, we will no longer be eligible to receive this income tax exemption. Losses of
portions of this tax exemption could negatively affect our results of operations.

Tax Credits

We are entitled to tax credits relating to certain investment and technology and human resources development under the Special Tax Treatment Control Law.
Specifically, we are entitled to a tax credit of 10% for our capital investments made on or before June 30, 2003, 15% for our capital investments made on or before December 31, 2004, 10% for our capital investments made on or before
December 31, 2005 and 7% for our capital investments made on or before December 31, 2006, each in proportion to the percentage of equity investment in us other than foreign direct equity investment. In addition, we are entitled to a tax
credit of up to 40% of the increase in certain expenses incurred in connection with technology and human resources development over the average of such expenses during the previous four years.

Tax credits not utilized in the fiscal year during which the relevant investment was made may be carried forward over the next five years in the case of
capital investments and five years in the case of investments relating to technology and human resources development. As of December 31, 2005, we had available deferred tax assets related to these credits in the amount of (Won)293.0 billion
(US$290.1 million), which may be utilized against future income tax liabilities through 2010.

Recognition of Deferred Income Tax
Assets

We recognize deferred income tax assets (net of valuation allowance) to the extent that, in the judgment of management,
utilization of the related tax benefits before their expiration is more likely than not. Our ability to utilize the future tax benefits related to our deferred tax assets depends on many factors, including an assessment of our ability to generate
taxable income, the overall industry outlook and the outlook for the Korean economy. We value our deferred income tax assets on an ongoing basis, and make valuation allowances if, in our assessment, current results suggest that it is more likely
than not that a portion or all of our deferred income tax assets will not be realized before their expiration. We have determined that no valuation allowance was required as of December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005.

As of December 31, 2005, we had (Won)362.9 billion (US$359.3 million) in net deferred income tax assets, including unused investment tax credits of
(Won)293.0 billion (US$290.1 million) that may be used to offset taxable income through 2010.

Recent U.S. GAAP Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2004, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 151, Inventory Costs  an amendment of ARB No. 43
(SFAS 151), which is the result of its efforts to converge U.S. accounting standards for inventories with International Accounting Standards. SFAS No. 151 requires idle facility expenses, freight, handling costs and wasted material
(spoilage) costs to be recognized as current-period charges. It also requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. SFAS No. 151 will be effective
for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. We do not believe adoption of SFAS No. 151 will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

##### Table of Contents

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment
(SFAS No. 123(R)). This statement requires the use of the fair value based method of accounting for employee share-based compensation and eliminates the alternative use of the intrinsic value method prescribed by APB
No. 25. Within limited exceptions, SFAS No. 123(R) requires that the grant-date fair value of share-based payments to employees be expensed over the period the service is received. This statement shall be effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2005, with early adoption during the fiscal years beginning after the date this statement is issued encouraged. We have adopted SFAS No. 123(R) and account for our Stock Appreciation Plan using the Black-Scholes
Option Pricing Model.

On December 16, 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets,
(SFAS No. 153) an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29. SFAS No. 153 addresses the measurement of exchanges of nonmonetary assets and redefines the scope of transactions that should be measured based on the fair value of the
assets exchanged. SFAS No. 153 is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2006. We do not believe adoption of SFAS No. 153 will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position,
results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2005, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections
 a replacement of APB NO. 20 and SFAS No. 3 (SFAS No. 154). SFAS No. 154 replaces APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, and FASB Statement No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim
Financial Statements, and changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2005. We do not believe adoption of SFAS No. 154 will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2006, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments(FAS No. 155), an amendment
of FAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivatives Instruments and Hedging Activities and FAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities. FAS No. 155 amends FAS No. 133 to narrow the
scope of the exception for interest-only and principal-only strips on debt instruments to include only such strips representing rights to receive a specified portion of contractual interest or principal cash flows. FAS No. 155 also amends FAS No.
140 to allow qualifying special-purpose entities to hold a passive derivative financial instrument pertaining to beneficial interests that itself is a derivative instrument. We are currently evaluating the impact of this new standard but believe
that it will not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 5C.Research and Development, Patents and Licenses, etc.

Research and Development

The TFT-LCD industry is subject to rapid technological changes. We believe that effective
research and development is essential to maintaining our position as one of the industrys leading technology innovators. Our research and product development expenditures amounted to (Won)279.2 billion in 2003, (Won)416.7 billion in 2004 and
(Won)564.7 billion (US$559.1 million) in 2005, representing 4.6% of our sales in 2003, 5.0% in 2004 and 5.6% in 2005. Included in these figures are product development costs directly associated with production at our Gumi facilities, excluding
depreciation expense, as well as research and development expenses, excluding depreciation expense, in the aggregate amount of (Won)162.3 billion in 2003, (Won)244.2 billion in 2004 and (Won)353.7 billion (US$350.2 million) in 2005, and capital
expenditures related to research and development and manufacturing for research and development test runs in the amount of (Won)117.0 billion in 2003, (Won)172.5 billion in 2004 and (Won)211.0 billion (US$208.9 million) in 2005.

Our research and development center in Anyang experiments with promising ideas and develops them to the proof-of-concept stage, while the Gumi
development center brings the new process technologies Anyang has developed to production readiness. Our research and development activities primarily focus on the development



61

##### Table of Contents

of new and improved manufacturing processes and product features. For example, in 2003, we successfully developed External Electrode Fluorescent Lamp, or
EEFL, technology in Anyang. EEFLs reduce the number of transformers required in inverter or backlight systems, thereby reducing material costs related to driver integrated circuits and making our assembly line more efficient. At our Gumi development
center we succeeded in developing the first 30-inch wide-format EEFL television panel in the world in 2004. Through the successful development of EEFL technology, we have achieved high cost reduction and greater efficiency in the production of our
backlight systems. More recently, we have successfully applied EEFL technology to larger-sized models, including 32- and 37-inch wide-format television panels. Many of our competitors have succeeded in applying this technology only to small-sized
television models.

We believe that the trend for display products in the future is the widespread use of affordable large-size flat panel
products with higher performance qualities. To meet the demands of this future trend, we have formulated a long-term research and development strategy aimed at enhancing the process, device and design aspects of the TFT-LCD industry. Accordingly, we
are developing long-term alternative technologies, such as LED backlight technology, which might provide improved black contrast and better color performance quality at lower cost. We have also developed copper line technology, a cutting edgy
technology that takes advantage of coppers low electrical resistance to improve the transmission of video signals even across large-sized LCD screens, resulting in sharp image quality with minimal distortion. We were the first company to apply
copper line technology to high resolution LCD panels. We are also further developing 120Hz driving technology based on copper line and other new circuit algorithms. 120Hz driving technology decreases motion blur by doubling the speed of the usual
frame rate.

In order to maintain our position as one of the industrys technology leaders, we believe it is important not only to
increase direct spending on research and development, but also to manage our research and development capability effectively in order to successfully implement our long-term strategy. Therefore, we complement our in-house research and development
capability with collaborations with universities and other third parties. For example, we provide project-based funding to both domestic and overseas universities as a means to recruit promising engineering students. We enter into joint research and
development agreements from time to time with third parties for the development of technologies in specific fields. We also belong to several display industry consortia, and we receive annual government funding to support our research and
development efforts. In addition to these collaborations, we may form strategic technology alliances with the research arms of LG Electronics or Philips Electronics, as well as suppliers and equipment makers in cluster industries, that
is, industries related to the TFT-LCD industry, in order to enhance our capability to develop new technology. For example, we are pursuing joint development projects with LG Chem to further strengthen our competitiveness in display panel materials.

We have developed a research and development management system whereby we encourage our engineers to propose new projects freely and to
implement rigorous evaluation criteria for each stage of project development. We select our projects primarily based on their feasibility and alignment with our research and development strategy, and we review the progress of all ongoing projects on
a quarterly basis. As of December 31, 2005, we employed 1,354 personnel in our research and development department, 45% of whom have masters degrees and 4% of whom have Ph.D. degrees.

While we primarily rely on our own capacity for the development of new technologies in the TFT-LCD design and manufacturing process, we rely on third
parties for certain key technologies to enhance our technology leadership, as further described in Intellectual Property below.

Intellectual Property

Overview

We currently hold a total of 4,326 patents, including 2,180 in Korea, 1,449 in the United States and 104 in Japan. These include patents for TFT-LCD manufacturing processes, products and applications. These patents
will expire at various dates upon the expiration of their respective terms ranging from 2006 to 2022.

##### Table of Contents

As part of our ongoing efforts to prevent infringements on our intellectual property rights and to keep
abreast of critical technology developments by our competitors, we closely monitor patent applications in Korea, Japan and the United States. We also plan to initiate monitoring activities in China. We intend to continue to file patent applications,
where appropriate, to protect our proprietary technologies.

We enter into confidentiality agreements with each of our employees and
consultants upon the commencement of an employment or consulting relationship. These agreements generally provide that all inventions, ideas, discoveries, improvements and copyrightable material made or conceived by the individual arising out of the
employment or consulting relationship and all confidential information developed or made known to the individual during the term of the relationship are our exclusive property.

License Agreements

We enter
into license or cross-license agreements from time to time with third parties with respect to various device and process technologies to complement our in-house research and development. We engage in regular discussions with third parties to
identify potential areas for additional licensing of key technologies.

Expenses relating to our license fees and royalty payments under
existing license agreements were (Won)23.5 billion in 2002, (Won)39.5 billion in 2003, (Won)43.7 billion in 2004 and (Won)47.1 billion (US$46.4 million) in 2005, representing 20.0% of our research and development expenses in 2002, 23.1% in 2003,
17.1% in 2004 and 12.9% in 2005. We expect that expenses relating to our license fees and royalty payments relating to intellectual property licenses will increase until 2006 due to ongoing royalty payments to Semiconductor Energy Laboratory Co.,
Ltd., or SEL, in connection with a license under certain patents relating to amorphous silicon thin film transistor technology. We did not receive any license fees from third parties in 2003. We received US$2.8 million and US$26.3 million in license
fees from third parties, in 2004 and 2005, respectively, which amounts are recognized as an offset account against license-related prepaid expenses.

LG LCD, our predecessor, entered into a license agreement with the Lemelson Foundation in July 1999 for a non-exclusive, non-transferable license under certain patents owned by the Lemelson Foundation relating to the
magnification process we utilize in our TFT-LCD manufacturing process. LG LCD paid a lump sum license fee, and its rights under the license agreement were assigned to us following the formation of the joint venture. Our license agreement with
Lemelson Foundation will expire upon the last to expire of the patents filed by Lemelson Foundation on or before July 30, 1999 and is subject to early termination in the event of a material breach of the terms and covenants of the agreement.

LG LCD entered into a license agreement with Commissariat à lEnergie Atomique, or CEA, in July 1999 for a non-exclusive,
non-transferable license under certain CEA patents to manufacture and sell vertically aligned active LCD products in certain territories. The agreement provided for an upfront license fee and additional fixed payments contingent upon the achievement
of certain levels of sales within specified periods. In June 2000 we succeeded to LG LCDs rights and obligations under this agreement, including the contingent payment obligations, and entered into a sub-license agreement with CEA for the
non-exclusive right, subject to certain exceptions, to sub-license our rights under the original license agreement to third parties. Our rights were expanded in scope in September 2002, in consideration for which we paid an upfront license fee and
were obligated to pay a fixed annual minimum payment beginning in July 2003. We may also be required to pay additional annual license fees to CEA, depending on the amount of license fees generated from our sub-licensing to third parties. We agreed
under the sub-license agreement to share a portion of all license and sub-license fees, including upfront payments and ongoing royalties, generated from the licensed technology with CEA, subject to certain exceptions. CEA has the right to
participate in our negotiations with third party sub-licensees, and the upfront license fees and ongoing royalties for such sub-licensing will be determined through the mutual consent of us and CEA. Our license agreement with CEA expires in February
2007 and is subject to termination in the event of failure to cure a material breach of the terms of the agreement and upon the occurrence of certain insolvency events.

in the event of a material breach of the terms of the agreement.

We entered into a license agreement with the Penn State Research
Foundation in January 2003 for a non-transferable license under its patents relating to low temperature polysilicon technology and certain other technologies to use the technologies in the manufacture and sale of certain TFT-LCD products. The
license agreement, which expires in October 2015, provides for an upfront license fee, a portion of which is payable upon us producing a certain volume of products using the licensed technologies. In addition, we are obligated to pay ongoing
royalties equal to a percentage of our sales up to a maximum amount, subject to reduction upon the occurrence of certain events. We have not made any royalty payments under this agreement because we have not yet begun commercial production of any
licensed products. Under the license agreement, the foundation agreed to share with us a portion of the proceeds, including upfront payments and ongoing royalties, from any future license agreements it enters into with third parties. We agreed to
use reasonable efforts to commercialize the licensed technologies, including reaching a certain level of sales of products using the licensed technologies within a certain number of years after the effective date. The agreement is subject to
termination in the event of failure to cure a material breach of certain provisions and covenants of the agreement, including failure to pay royalties and the filing of inaccurate royalty reports, and upon the occurrence of certain insolvency
events.

In connection with the settlement of a lawsuit with NEC, we entered into a cross-license agreement with NEC in April 2001, under
which each party granted to the other a non-exclusive and non-transferable worldwide licenses under all of its patents filed prior to the fifth anniversary of the effective date relating to LCD modules,

##### Table of Contents

panels, materials and driver chips. In particular, each party granted to the other a non-exclusive license under its side mounting patents. In addition, NEC
authorized us to grant to LG Electronics a license under NECs monitor patents for the production and sale of monitors. The licenses granted under the agreement are generally non-transferable, subject to certain exceptions and will expire upon
the expiration of the last patent to be filed by either NEC or us prior to April 2006. The agreement is subject to termination in the event of failure to cure a material breach of the terms of the agreement and upon the occurrence of certain
insolvency events. Upon termination, the rights and licenses granted to the breaching party by the non-breaching party shall terminate but the non-breaching party may continue to use the rights and licenses granted to it by the breaching party.

We entered into a license agreement with Honeywell International Inc. and Honeywell Intellectual Properties Inc. in March and October 2003
for a non-exclusive, non-transferable license under a patent relating to certain diffuser and flicker-free technology used for liquid crystal displays to use the technology in the manufacture and sale of certain TFT-LCD products. The agreement
provides for an upfront license fee and a fixed annual payment for each of the five years after the effective date. We have no sub-licensing or enforcement rights under the agreement. Our license agreement with Honeywell International expires in
July 2012 and our license agreement with Honeywell Intellectual Properties expires in December 2008.

We entered into a non-exclusive,
fully paid-up license agreement with Plasma Physics Corporation in September 2003 under certain patents relating to plasma chemical vapor coating or etching to use the technology in the development, manufacture and sale of certain TFT-LCD products
until the licensed patents expire. Our license agreement with Plasma Physics Corporation expires in February 2010. The agreement is subject to termination in the event of a material breach of certain provisions, including unauthorized sub-licensing,
and upon the occurrence of certain insolvency events.

We entered into a license agreement with Fergason Patent Properties, LLC in October
2003 for a non-exclusive, non-transferable license under a patent relating to technology for controlling light intensity to use the technology in the manufacture and sale of certain TFT-LCD products. The agreement, which expires in February 2015,
provides for an initial payment and a fixed running royalty for each product we produce using the licensed technology. The agreement is subject to termination in the event of a material breach of the terms of the agreement.

We entered into a cross-license agreement with Hitachi in June 2004 for a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-assignable and indivisible license to use
each others patents for the manufacture and sale of liquid crystal and electroluminescent display devices. Under the cross-license agreement, we are obligated to make six semi-annual payments to Hitachi starting in the second half of 2004. The
agreement will expire upon the expiration of the last patent to be filed by either Hitachi or us on or before June 2024. The agreement is subject to early termination in the event of failure to cure a material breach of certain provisions, including
failure to make payments, and upon the occurrence of certain insolvency events. Pursuant to this cross-license agreement, we will be able to use a patent owned by Hitachi for In Plane Switching, or IPS, a key technology that allows for increased
viewing angles for large-size display panels.

We are currently discussing with Merck & Co., our key supplier of liquid crystal
materials, for a license under a Merck patent for a panel design technology that is a basic technology used in IPS for the manufacture and sale of certain large-size display panels. Currently, we are consulting with Merck about the terms of a
possible licensing arrangement, including the payment of any license fees. As one of Mercks largest customers, we anticipate that we would be able to reach a mutually acceptable arrangement. Our negotiations with Merck, however, may take some
time before we are able to reach an agreement. Unsuccessful negotiations with Merck could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Philips Electronics and Toshiba Corporation entered into a royalty-free cross-license agreement in July 2000, as amended in a side letter dated March
2004, for a worldwide, non-exclusive and non-transferable license to use each others patents relating to display cells and circuitry components for the manufacture and sale of

##### Table of Contents

certain TFT-LCD products. The cross-license agreement extends to affiliates, subsidiaries and certain associated companies of Philips Electronics and
Toshiba, which included us prior to our initial public offering in July 2004. The ability of Toshiba and us to use each others patented technologies under this cross-license agreement automatically terminated when, following our initial public
offering, Philips Electronics ceased to own or control at least 50% of our voting stock. However, under the terms of the license agreement we will continue to be licensed to use those patents that were filed prior to the date on which we were no
longer deemed to be an associated company of Philips Electronics, which is July 2004, for the life of such patents.

In addition to
licensing key technologies from third parties, we aim to benefit from our own patents and other intellectual property rights by granting licenses to third parties from time to time in return for royalty payments. We entered into a license agreement
with Rockwell Collins Inc. in June 2001, under which we granted to Rockwell a non-exclusive, non-transferable license under our high aperture LCD patents primarily for use in military applications. This agreement expires in December 2021. We are
entitled to receive ongoing royalty payments equal to a percentage of Rockwells sales of licensed products. We have not received any royalty payments under this agreement because Rockwell has not yet begun commercial production of the licensed
products. The agreement is subject to early termination in the event of a material breach of the terms and conditions of the agreement.

Under several patent purchase and license agreements between us and third parties where we have sub-licensing rights, we are obligated to share with these third parties a portion of the license payments and/or royalty income received from
any such sub-licensing. We received US$29.1 million in license fees under such sub-licensing rights after deducting amounts due to third parties under the patent purchase and license agreements.

Item 5D.Trend Information

These matters are discussed under Item 5A. and
Item 5B. above where relevant.

Item 5E.Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Historically, we had not engaged in any material
off-balance sheet financing activities to finance our operations or expansion. In September 2004, we entered into a revolving US$300 million asset-backed commercial paper program using the selected accounts receivable of our four sales subsidiaries
in Germany, Taiwan, Japan and the United States. We have used the proceeds from this financing to reduce the payment terms of our sales subsidiaries accounts payable and to meet working capital needs.

We enter into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge transaction risks related to changes in currency exchange rates.

Item 5F.Tabular Disclosure of Contractual Obligations

These matters are discussed under
Item 5B. above where relevant.

Item 6. DIRECTORS, SENIOR MANAGEMENT AND EMPLOYEES

Item 6A.Directors and Senior Management

Board of Directors

Our board of directors has the ultimate responsibility for the management of our business affairs. Our articles of incorporation provide for a board
consisting of between five and nine directors, more than half of whom must be outside directors. Our shareholders elect all directors at a general meeting of shareholders. Our articles of incorporation also require that we elect either a single
representative director or two joint

representative directors. If we elect to have two joint representative directors, one representative director will serve as chief executive officer and the
other representative director will serve as chief financial officer. Under the Korean Commercial Code and our articles of incorporation, the joint representative directors are authorized to jointly represent us in activities relating to our
business. A representative director of a company established in Korea is authorized to represent and act on behalf of such company and has the power to bind such company. A company may have (i) one sole representative director, (ii) two or
more co-representative directors or (iii) two or more joint representative directors. The powers and authorities of a sole representative director and any co-representative directors are exactly the same while the only distinction
for joint representative directors is that they must act jointly (i.e., all of the joint representative directors must act together in order to bind the company while co-representative directors may act independently). All representative directors
are selected from among the non-outside directors.

The term of office for our directors will expire upon the closing of the annual general
meeting of shareholders convened in respect of the last fiscal year within three years after they take office. However, if the term of office expires after the close of the last fiscal year of such term of office but before the annual general
meeting of shareholders convened in respect of such fiscal year, the term of office shall be extended up to the close of such annual general meeting of shareholders. Our board must meet at least once every quarter, and may meet as often as the
representative director or joint representative directors deem necessary or advisable. Other directors may also request the representative director or joint representative directors to convene a board meeting at any time.

The tables below set forth information regarding our current directors and executive officers. The business address of all of the directors and executive
officers is the address of our registered office at 17thFloor, West Tower, LG Twin Towers, 20 Yoido-dong,
Youngdungpo-gu, Seoul, Republic of Korea, 150-721.

To recruit promising engineering students at leading Korean universities, we work with these universities on research projects where these students can gain exposure to our research and development efforts. We currently plan to hire a
significant number of college graduates in 2006 and 2007 to work as engineers in our development and production departments. We also provide on-the-job training for our new employees and develop training programs to identify and promote new leaders.

As of December 31, 2005, approximately 68% of our employees, including those of our subsidiaries, were union members, and production
employees accounted for substantially all of these members. We have a collective bargaining arrangement with our labor union, which is negotiated once a year. We have never experienced a work stoppage or strike, and we consider our relationship with
our employees to be good.

The salaries of our employees are reviewed annually. Salaries are adjusted based on individual and team
performance, industry standards and inflation. As an incentive, discretionary bonuses may be paid based on the performance of individuals, and a portion of our operating income may be paid to our employees under our profit sharing plan if certain
performance criteria are achieved. We also provide a wide range of benefits to our employees including medical insurance, employment insurance, workers compensation, free medical examinations, child tuition and education fee reimbursements and
low-cost housing for certain employees.

Under the Korean Labor Standards Act, employees with one year or more of service are entitled to
receive, upon termination of their employment, a lump-sum severance payment based on the length of their service and their average wage during the last three months of employment. We make provisions for accrued severance liabilities based on the
assumption that all employees terminate their employment with us at the same time. As of December 31, 2005, our accrued severance liabilities amounted to (Won)112.0 billion, of which 61.0% was funded through severance insurance plans, while
0.1% was funded through deposits with the National Pension Corporation.

At December 31, 2005, our employee stock ownership
association owned approximately 0.1% of our common stock.

Item 6E.Share Ownership

Common Stock

The persons who are currently our executive officers held, as a group, 9,216 shares of common stock as of December 31, 2005, the most recent date for
which this information is available. They acquired our shares of

common stock through our employee stock ownership association and pursuant to open market purchases on the Korea Exchange. Due to Korean law restrictions,
our chief executive officer and chief financial officer did not participate in the employee stock ownership association and do not currently own any shares of our common stock.

Stock Options

In March 2005,
our articles of incorporation were amended to provide for a long-term incentive plan to aid retention of executives and key staff and to provide an incentive to meet strategic objectives. We are now reviewing appropriate long-term incentive plan
designs and details of the plan are yet to be finalized. It is likely that the plan will incorporate awards in the form of stock options, restricted stock or cash, or some combination of such forms. Awards will be linked to each persons
contribution to our performance and the value of the awards eventually received will be based on our performance over the period following their grant.

As part of our long-term incentive plan, our board of directors resolved on April 7, 2005 to grant the first performance-based stock options to our standing directors and executive officers. The stock option plan
compares gains in the Korea Composite Stock Price Index, or KOSPI, against increases in the price of our common stock during the period from the grant date to the start of the exercise period. Depending on our performance, adjustments may be made to
the number of options that a grantee may exercise during the exercise period. A grantee will be permitted to exercise 100% of the stock options initially granted if our common stock outperforms the KOSPI during the period of comparison. A grantee
will be permitted to exercise only 50% of the stock options initially granted if the KOSPI outperforms our common stock during the period of comparison. In addition, our board adopted a Stock Appreciation Rights Plan pursuant to which we will pay in
cash the difference between the exercise and market price at the date of exercise. The following table sets forth certain information regarding our stock option plan as of March 31, 2006:

##### Table of Contents

Other than as set forth above, no other person or entity known by us to be acting in concert, directly or
indirectly, jointly or severally, owned more than 5% or more of our outstanding common stock or exercised control or could exercise control over us as of December 31, 2005.

Shareholders Agreement

In July 2004, LG Electronics and Philips Electronics entered into a
shareholders agreement to reflect certain corporate governance arrangements between them as our controlling shareholders. Pursuant to our articles of incorporation and the terms of the shareholders agreement, we have a nine-member board
of directors which is composed of two outside directors selected by each of LG Electronics and Philips Electronics, one outside director jointly selected by them and four non-outside directors. The two shareholders also agreed to a co-voting
arrangement under which each party is obligated to vote in favor of the non-outside director candidates selected by the other party as well as the non-outside candidate jointly selected by the two shareholders. The outside directors so selected to
form our first board of directors were deemed to have been nominated by the Outside Director Nomination and Corporate Governance Committee, which was established on March 23, 2005 pursuant to our articles of incorporation. Subject to minimum
shareholding requirements, LG Electronics and Philips Electronics are also able to nominate our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, who are our two joint representative directors and who must act in concert in order for their
actions to bind us. See Item 6A. Directors and Senior Management for a description of the powers, under Korean law, of joint representative directors.

The right to nominate the four non-outside directors of our board, including our joint representative directors or sole representative director, as the case may be, depends on the respective ownership interest in us
of each of LG Electronics and Philips Electronics:



| |  |  | if the ownership interest of each shareholder remains at 25% or higher, each shareholder will nominate two non-outside directors to our board, including nomination of the chief
executive officer by LG Electronics and nomination of the chief financial officer by Philips Electronics, who will serve as joint representative directors;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | if the ownership interest of one shareholder remains at 25% or higher and the ownership interest of the other shareholder drops to below 25% but equal to 15% or higher (even if the
ownership interest subsequently increases to 25% or higher), the former will nominate three non-outside directors to our board, including one sole representative director, and the latter will nominate one non-outside director and further forfeit its
right to nominate a representative director and the chief executive officer or chief financial officer, as the case may be;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | if the ownership interest of one shareholder remains at 25% or higher and the ownership interest of the other shareholder drops to below 15% (even if the ownership interest
subsequently increases to 15% or higher), the former will nominate all four non-outside directors to our board, including one sole representative director, and the latter will forfeit its right to nominate any non-outside director to our board;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | if the ownership interest of each shareholder drops to below 25% but equal to 15% or higher (even if the ownership interest of one or both subsequently increases to 25% or higher),
each shareholder will nominate two non-outside directors but both will forfeit their right to nominate a representative director, who will be nominated by the board of directors;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | if the ownership interest of one shareholder drops to below 25% but equal to 15% or higher (even if the ownership interest subsequently increases to 25% or higher) and the ownership
interest of the other shareholder drops to below 15% (even if the ownership interest subsequently increases to 15% or higher), the former will nominate all four non-outside directors to our board and the latter will forfeit its right to nominate any
non-outside director to our board; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | if the ownership interest of each shareholder drops to below 15% (even if the ownership interest of one or both subsequently increases to 15% or higher), both
shareholders will forfeit their right to nominate

| | any non-outside director and our board of directors will assume responsibility for nominating the four non-outside directors, including the nomination of one
director as sole representative director;
| | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

provided, that, LG Electronics and Philips Electronics have each undertaken to
(1) request the non-outside directors nominated by it to vote in favor of removal of the chief executive officer/joint representative director (or sole representative director, as the case may be) from such position or chief financial
officer/joint representative director from such position, as the case may be, at the first meeting of our board of directors held immediately after the change in ownership interests described above, and (2) vote their respective shares in favor
of effecting the events described above, including the removal of non-outside directors, at the first annual general shareholders meeting held after the change in ownership interests described above. In the event that a non-outside director fails to
vote pursuant to the terms of the shareholders agreement, either to nominate or remove the chief executive officer/joint representative director to or from such position or chief financial officer/joint representative director to or from such
position, as the case may be, both LG Electronics and Philips Electronics have agreed to vote for the removal of such non-outside director. In the event of death, resignation or other removal of a non-outside director before the natural expiration
of his or her term, LG Electronics and Philips Electronics have each undertaken to vote its shares in favor of a proposal to elect a replacement non-outside director nominated by the party which nominated the departing or departed non-outside
director. The term of the replacement non-outside director shall be the remaining term of the predecessor.

The shareholders
agreement also provides for certain transfer restrictions which become effective after the expiration of the one-year lock-up period agreed to by both shareholders in connection with our initial public offering for any transfer or acquisition of any
of our shares without the prior written consent of the other (except transfer to its affiliates). Such transfer restrictions include a right of first refusal pursuant to which each party, upon receipt of an offer by a third party to purchase its
shares, must first give the other party the right to purchase such shares upon the same terms and conditions. In addition, each party has certain tag-along rights whereby if a party seeks to sell its shares, the other party has the right to join the
transaction and sell an equal number of shares on the same terms and conditions. These transfer restrictions will apply until the earlier of (1) the date that the ownership interest of either LG Electronics or Philips Electronics in us first
falls below 15% or (2) the date that the combined ownership interest of both LG Electronics and Philips Electronics in us first falls below 40%.

In addition, LG Electronics and Philips Electronics have agreed with each other not to (1) effect any sale or transfer of our shares that would decrease their respective ownership interests in us to lower than
30% for a period of three years from the date of listing of our ADSs on the New York Stock Exchange and our shares on the Korea Exchange, which was on July 22, 2004 and July 23, 2004, respectively; (2) effect any sale or transfer of
our shares to any single competitor of us in a single or series of related transactions if such sale or transfer would constitute 5% or more of our total issued and outstanding shares; or (3) effect any sale or transfer of our shares to any one
person in a single or series of related transactions if such sale or transfer would constitute 10% or more of our total issued and outstanding shares, in each case, without the prior written consent of the other party.

The shareholders agreement will automatically terminate if the ownership interest of either LG Electronics or Philips Electronics in us falls below
10%.

The foregoing summary of the shareholders agreement between LG Electronics and Philips Electronics does not purport to be
complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Shareholders Agreement, a copy of which was previously filed with the Commission as an exhibit to our registration statement on Form F-1 and which is incorporated by reference
herein.

Registration Rights Agreement

We entered into a registration rights agreement with each of LG Electronics and Philips Electronics in July 2004, which among other things, provides that (1) we will file a registration statement upon demand by either of

##### Table of Contents

LG Electronics or Philips Electronics at any time after the later of the first anniversary of the listing of our ADSs in the New York Stock Exchange and our
common stock on the Korea Exchange, which was on July 22, 2004 and July 23, 2004, respectively, and (2) we will use our reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective as soon as practicable. We
will not be required to effect more than two demand registrations in any successive two-year periods and we will not be required to effect any demand registration within six months of the effectiveness of a registration statement under a previous
demand registration effected by us for Philips Electronics or LG Electronics, as the case may be, subject in each case to customary black-out periods. LG Electronics and Philips Electronics are entitled to exercise certain piggyback
registration rights with respect to their registrable securities, as defined in the registration rights agreement, subject to customary exceptions and black-out periods.

The foregoing summary of the registration rights agreements with LG Electronics and Philips Electronics does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the LG Electronics Registration
Rights Agreement and the Philips Electronics Registration Rights Agreement, copies of which were previously filed as exhibits to the registration statement on Form F-1 and which are incorporated by reference herein.

Information Agreement

Our principal shareholders, LG
Electronics and Philips Electronics, are both publicly traded companies, each of which is subject to legal and stock exchange reporting and other disclosure requirements. Accordingly, we have entered into an agreement with each of LG Electronics and
Philips Electronics to provide, subject to certain limitations, various financial and other information relating to us and to assist them in connection with their respective reporting, disclosure and other obligations. Each party has agreed that it
will use any information provided under the respective agreement, unless otherwise made public, only in connection with these obligations and that it will not use the information for any other purpose, including in connection with the sale and/or
purchase of securities issued by us.



|Item 7B. | Related Party Transactions
|-------- | --------------------------

Certain
Relationships and Related Party Transactions

We engage from time to time in a variety of transactions with related parties. We have
conducted our transactions with related parties, including LG Electronics and Philips Electronics, as we would in comparable arms-length transactions with a non-related party, on a basis substantially as favorable to us as would be obtainable
in such transactions.

Relationships and Transactions with LG Electronics and Related Companies

Sales to LG Electronics

We
sell TFT-LCD panels, primarily large-size panels for notebook computers, desktop monitors and televisions, to LG Electronics (including its overseas subsidiaries) and certain of its affiliates on a regular basis, as both an end-brand customer and as
a systems integrator for use in products they assemble on a contract basis for other end-brand customers. Pricing and other principal terms of the sales are negotiated on an arms-length basis and are substantially the same as those for our
non-affiliated end-brand customers. Until 2003, LG Electronics purchased a portion of its large-size panel requirements through Serveone (formerly LG MRO), a company that procures and purchases various materials, equipment and services for
affiliated companies of LG Electronics. LG Electronics no longer purchases such panels from Serveone.

Sales to LG Electronics (including
its overseas subsidiaries) on an invoiced basis, which include sales to LG Electronics as an end-brand customer and system integrator, including sales through Serveone, amounted to W1,527.6 billion, or 25.1% of our sales, in 2003, W1,607.1 billion,
or 19.3% of our sales, in 2004 and W1,821.5 billion (US$1,803.5 million), or 18.1% of our sales, in 2005.

##### Table of Contents

Sales to LG International

We sell our products to certain subsidiaries of LG International, our affiliated trading company, in regions where we do not have a sales subsidiary, or
where doing so is consistent with local market practices. These subsidiaries of LG International process orders from and distribute products to customers located in their region.

In particular, we have sold a significant amount of our products to LG International Japan, Ltd. and LG International (HK) Ltd. and, until 2003, when we
began to use our Taiwan subsidiary for sales to Singapore, to LG International Singapore, Ltd. Sales to LG International and its subsidiaries on an aggregate basis amounted to 10.0%, 5.5% and 7.4% of our sales in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively.
We sell our products to these subsidiaries of LG International at a market price determined on an arms-length basis.

We establish
sales subsidiaries in the relevant geographical markets when the benefit of doing so outweighs the cost of utilizing our affiliated trading company, LG International, or its subsidiaries, and where local market practice permits. Based on this
approach, we established sales subsidiaries in Hong Kong and Shanghai, China, in January 2003, to replace LG International (HK) in conducting sales to system integrators located in China. We expect to continue to utilize LG International Japan,
consistent with local market practices there, to conduct our sales to end-brand customers in Japan, but may establish additional sales subsidiaries in the future in these or other regions as sales volumes to customers located in these regions
increase and/or market practice warrants.

Purchases from LG International

We procure a portion of our production materials, equipment and components from LG International and its subsidiaries in Japan, Europe and the United
States. We use these subsidiaries in order to take advantage of their relationships with vendors, experience in negotiations and logistics as well as their ability to obtain volume discounts. Purchase prices we pay to these subsidiaries and other
terms of our transactions with them are conducted on an arms-length basis. We expect to continue to utilize LG Internationals overseas subsidiaries for the procurement of a portion of our production materials, equipment and components.

Our purchases of materials, equipment and components from LG International and its subsidiaries, amounted to W768.2 billion, or 17.5% of
our total material, equipment and component purchases, in 2003, W1,652.4 billion, or 22.4% of our total purchases, in 2004 and W1,338.1 billion (US$1,324.8 million), or 16.7% of our total purchases, in 2005.

Other Purchases

Under a
master purchase agreement, we procure, on an as-needed basis, raw materials, components and other materials or services necessary for our production process, construction materials as well as construction and engineering services from LG
Electronics and its affiliated companies, including LG Chem and GS Engineering & Construction (formerly LG Engineering & Construction). As of January 2005, GS Engineering & Construction is no longer an affiliated company
of the LG Group. As part of the master purchase agreement, we also procure certain service-related items from Serveone, including office supplies. Our purchases of raw materials, such as polarizers, from LG Chem amounted to W243.8 billion, W398.4
billion and W620.9 billion (US$614.8 million) in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. Our purchases of photo masks from LG Micron Ltd. amounted to W62.1 billion, W89.7 billion and W125.2 billion (US$124.0 million) in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively.
In addition, we procured construction and engineering services from GS Engineering & Construction in connection with expansion investments in the amount of W734.0 billion and W828.8 billion in 2003 and 2004, respectively.

Our total purchases of materials, equipment, components and services from LG Electronics and its affiliated companies, excluding LG International and its
subsidiaries, amounted to W1,333.0 billion, or 28.4% of our total purchases of materials, equipment, components and services, in 2003, W1,747.2 billion, or 21.2% of our total purchases, in 2004 and W1,258.6 billion (US$1,246.2 million), or 13.7% of
our total purchases, in 2005.

##### Table of Contents

In addition, we benefit from certain licenses extended to us from license or cross-license agreements
between LG Electronics and third parties.

Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, LG Electronics had assigned most of its patents
relating to the development, manufacture and sale of TFT-LCD products to us and we had agreed to maintain joint ownership of those patents that were not assigned to us. Pursuant to a grantback agreement entered into with LG Electronics in July 2004,
in the event of any intellectual property dispute between LG Electronics and a third party relating to those patents jointly owned by LG Electronics and us, we intend to allow LG Electronics to assert ownership in those patents for all non TFT-LCD
applications and to license or grant other rights in such patents for use by the licensee in non-TFT-LCD applications in order to settle such disputes.

Trademark Agreement with LG Corp.

We entered into a trademark license agreement with LG
Corp., the holding company of the LG Group, in July 2004 for use of the LG name. Under the agreement, we began making monthly payments in the aggregate amount per year of 0.1% of our sales, net of advertising expenses, in 2005. This
agreement has a term of three years and is automatically renewable for successive three-year periods unless either party gives a termination notice prior to any renewal. LG Corp. has the right to terminate this agreement if the ownership interest of
the LG Group companies in us falls below 25%.

Relationships and Transactions with Philips Electronics

Sales and Purchases from Philips Electronics

We sell large-size TFT-LCD panels for desktop monitors and televisions to Philips Electronics and its affiliates on a regular basis. Pricing and other principal terms of the sales are negotiated on an
arms-length basis and are substantially the same as those for our non-affiliated end-brand customers.

Sales to Philips Electronics
and its affiliates on an invoiced basis, which include sales to Philips Electronics as an end-brand customer and system integrator, amounted to W603.6 billion, or 9.9% of our sales, in 2003, W1,210.9 billion, or 14.5% of our sales, in 2004 and
W1,323.6 billion (US$1,310.5 million), or 13.1% of our sales, in 2005.

We purchase driver integrated circuits from Philips
Electronics semiconductor division under a volume and price agreement. These purchases amounted to W37.1 billion, W52.3 billion and W52.2 billion (US$51.7 million) in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively.

Trademark Agreement with Philips Electronics

We entered into a trademark license agreement with Philips Electronics in July 2004 for use of the Philips name. Under the agreement, we began making monthly payments in the aggregate amount per year of
0.1% of our sales, net of advertising expenses, in 2005. This agreement has a term of three years and is automatically renewable for successive three-year periods unless either party gives a termination notice prior to any renewal. Philips
Electronics has the right to terminate this agreement if the ownership interest of Philips Electronics in us falls below 25%.

Transactions with
Directors and Officers

Certain of our directors and executive officers also serve as executive officers of companies with which we do
business. None of our directors or executive officers has or had any interest in any of our business transactions that are or were unusual in their nature or conditions or significant to our business.

Legal Proceedings

On August 29, 2002, we filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Central District of California against Chunghwa Picture Tubes,
Tatung Company and Tatung Co. of America, Inc. We believe that these companies have infringed on six of our United States patents relating to liquid crystal displays and the manufacturing processes for thin-film transistors and liquid crystal
displays by selling TFT-LCD products into the United States covered by these patents. We are seeking, among other things, treble damages for past infringement of these patents and for an injunction against future infringement. The trial is scheduled
to begin on October 3, 2006. We also filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Central District of California against customers of Chunghwa Picture Tubes, including ViewSonic Corp., Jean Co., Lite-On Technology Corp.,
Lite-On Technology International, Inc., TPV Technology and Invision Peripheral Inc. Currently the matter is in the discovery stage. On May 24, 2004, we sought declaratory relief in the United States District Court for the District of
Massachusetts to determine the inventorship of four of these patents. The case has been dismissed, and the inventorship issue is to be decided in the pending lawsuit before the Central District of California. On June 21, 2004, Chunghwa Picture
Tubes filed a counter-claim against us in the United States District Court for the Central District of California for alleged infringement of Chunghwa Picture Tubes intellectual property and violation of U.S. antitrust laws. On August 3,
2004, we demanded arbitration of the counter-claims filed by Chunghwa Picture Tubes. The arbitration proceedings are currently in progress before the American Arbitration Association.

On May 27, 2004, we filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware against Tatung Co. and ViewSonic Corp.
claiming patent infringement on two of our United States patents relating to rear mountable liquid crystal display devices. We are seeking damages for past infringement and an injunction against future infringement. We also filed a parallel
complaint with the Patents County Court in the United Kingdom claiming infringement on one of our U.K. patents relating to the same technology. Tatung Co. is a major shareholder in Chunghwa Picture Tubes.

On January 10, 2005, Chunghwa Picture Tubes filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Central District of California against LG
Electronics and us for alleged infringement of one of its U.S. patents relating to flat panel display mounting systems. On April 25, 2005, we filed our answer to Chunghwa Picture Tubes infringement claim, together with a counter-claim in
the United States District Court for the Central District of California for the correction of the legal title of the subject patent. We are also seeking damages for Chungwha Picture Tubes inequitable conduct in prosecuting the patent.

On May 13, 2005, we filed a separate complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware against Chunghwa
Picture Tubes, Tatung Company, Tatung Co. of America and ViewSonic Corporation claiming infringement of our patents relating to the design and manufacture of liquid crystal display modules and seeking, among other things, monetary damages for past
infringement and an injunction against future infringement.

We are involved from time to time in certain routine legal actions incidental
to our business. However, except for the ongoing legal proceedings described above relating to our intellectual property rights, we are not currently involved in any material litigation or other proceedings the outcome of which we believe might,

individually or taken as a whole, adversely affect our results of operations or financial condition. In addition, except as described above, we are not aware
of any other material pending or threatened litigation against us.

Dividends

The Korea Exchange

On January 27, 2005, the Korea Exchange was established pursuant to the Korea Securities and Futures Exchange Act by consolidating the Korea Stock
Exchange, the Korea Futures Exchange, the KOSDAQ Stock Market, Inc., or the KOSDAQ, and the KOSDAQ Committee of the Korea Securities Dealers Association, which had formerly managed the KOSDAQ. The Korea Exchange (formerly the Korea Stock Exchange)
has a single trading floor located in Seoul. The Korea Exchange is a limited liability company, the shares of which are held by (i) securities companies and futures companies that were formerly members of the Korea Futures Exchange or the Korea
Stock Exchange and (ii) the stockholders of the KOSDAQ.

As of December 31, 2005, the aggregate market value of equity securities
listed on the Korea Exchange was approximately (Won)655 trillion. The average daily trading volume of equity securities for 2005 was approximately 468 million shares with an average transaction value of (Won)3,158 billion.

The Korea Exchange has the power in some circumstances to suspend trading in the shares of a given company or to de-list a security pursuant to the
Regulation on Listing on the Korea Exchange. The Korea Exchange also restricts share price movements. All listed companies are required to file accounting reports annually, semi-annually and quarterly and to release immediately all information that
may affect trading in a security.

The government has in the past exerted, and continues to exert, substantial influence over many aspects
of the private sector business community that can have the intention or effect of depressing or boosting the market. In the past, the government has informally both encouraged and restricted the declaration and payment of dividends, induced mergers
to reduce what it considers excess capacity in a particular industry and induced private companies to offer publicly their securities.

The
Korea Exchange publishes the Korea Composite Stock Price Index, or KOSPI, every ten seconds, which is an index of all equity securities listed on the Korea Exchange. On January 1, 1983, the method of computing KOSPI was changed from the Dow
Jones method to the aggregate value method. In the new method, the market capitalizations of all listed companies are aggregated, subject to certain adjustments, and this aggregate is expressed as a percentage of the aggregate market capitalization
of all listed companies as of the base date, January 4, 1980.

Shares are quoted ex-dividend on the first trading day of the relevant companys accounting period. Since
the calendar year is the accounting period for the majority of listed companies, this may account for the drop in KOSPI between its closing level at the end of one calendar year and its opening level at the beginning of the following calendar year.

With certain exceptions, principally to take account of a share being quoted ex-dividend and ex-rights, permitted
upward and downward movements in share prices of any category of shares on any day are limited under the rules of the Korea Exchange to 15% of the previous days closing price of the shares, rounded down as set out below:



|                                   |  |                      
|---------------------------------- |  | ---------------------

|Less than 5,000                    |  | 5                    
|5,000 to less than 10,000          |  | 10                   
|10,000 to less than 50,000         |  | 50                   
|50,000 to less than 100,000        |  | 100                  
|100,000 to less than 500,000       |  | 500                  
|500,000 or more                    |  | 1,000

As a consequence, if a particular closing price is the same as the price set by the fluctuation limit,
the closing price may not reflect the price at which persons would have been prepared, or would be prepared to continue, if so permitted, to buy and sell shares. Orders are executed on an auction system with priority rules to deal with competing
bids and offers.

Due to deregulation of restrictions on brokerage commission rates, the brokerage commission rate on equity securities
transactions may be determined by the parties, subject to commission schedules being filed with the Korea Exchange by the securities companies. In addition, a securities transaction tax of 0.15% of the sales price will generally be imposed on the
transfer of shares or certain securities representing rights to subscribe for shares. An agricultural and fishery special surtax of 0.15% of the sales prices will also be imposed on transfer of these shares and securities on the Korea Exchange. See
Item 10E. TaxationKorean Taxation.

capitalization at the end of the periods indicated and the average daily trading volume for those periods are set forth in the following table:

and Exchange Act was fundamentally amended numerous times in recent years to broaden the scope and improve the effectiveness of official supervision of the
securities markets. As amended, the law imposes restrictions on insider trading and price manipulation, requires specified information to be made available by listed companies to investors and establishes rules regarding margin trading, proxy
solicitation, takeover bids, acquisition of treasury shares and reporting requirements for shareholders holding substantial interests. The Korean Securities and Futures Exchange Act regulates the operation and monitoring of the securities and
futures markets.

Further Opening of the Korean Securities Market

Starting from May 1, 1996, foreign investors were permitted to invest in warrants representing the right to subscribe for shares of a company listed on the Stock Market Division of the Korea Exchange or the
KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange, subject to certain investment limitations. A foreign investor may not acquire such warrants with respect to shares of a class of a company for which the ceiling on aggregate investment by foreigners has
been reached or exceeded.

A stock index futures market was opened on May 3, 1996 and a stock index option market was opened on
July 7, 1997, in each case at the Korea Exchange. Remittance and repatriation of funds in connection with foreign investment in stock index futures and options are subject to regulations similar to those that govern remittance and repatriation
in the context of foreign investment in Korean stocks.

In addition, on January 28, 2002 the Korea Exchange opened a new options
market for the stock of seven companies (Samsung Electronics, SK Telecom, KT Corporation, Korea Electric Power Corporation, POSCO, Kookmin Bank and Hyundai Motor Company). On September 26, 2005, the Korea Exchange expanded this market to
include the stock of an additional 23 companies (including the stock of LG Electronics, SK Corporation, Shinhan Financial Group Co., Ltd., Samsung SDI, KT&G, Hana Financial Group Inc., Hyundai Mobis, Kia Motors Corp., LG Corporation, Samsung
Fire & Marine Insurance, Kangwon Land Corporation, LG Chem, Ltd., Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., Ltd., Korea Gas Corporation, Samsung Corporation, Samsung Electro-Machanics Co., Ltd., GS Holdings Corp., CJ Corp., Hankook Tire, Hanjin
Shipping Co., Ltd., Samsung Securities Co., Ltd., Korean Air, Hyundai Steel (formerly INI Steel)). Foreigners are permitted to invest in such options subject to the same procedural requirements and investment limitations applicable to Korean
investors.

As of December 30, 1997, foreign investors were permitted to invest in all types of corporate bonds, bonds issued by
national or local governments and bonds issued in accordance with certain special laws without being subject to any aggregate or individual investment ceiling. The Financial Supervisory Commission sets forth procedural requirements for such
investments. The Government announced on February 8, 1998 its plans for the liberalization of the money market with respect to investment in money market instruments by foreigners in 1998. According to the plan, foreigners have been permitted
to invest in money market instruments issued by corporations, including commercial paper, starting February 16, 1998 with no restrictions as to the amount. Starting May 25, 1998, foreigners have been permitted to invest in certificates of
deposit and repurchase agreements.

Currently, foreigners are permitted to invest in certain securities including shares of Korean
companies that are not listed on the Korea Exchange and in bonds that are not listed.

Protection of Customers Interest in Case of Insolvency of
Securities Companies

Under Korean law, the relationship between a customer and a securities company in connection with a securities
sell or buy order is deemed to be consignment and the securities acquired by a consignment agent (i.e., the securities company) through such sell or buy order are regarded as belonging to the customer in so far as the customer and the consignment
agents creditors are concerned. Therefore, in the event of a bankruptcy or reorganization procedure involving a securities company, the customer of the securities company is entitled to the proceeds of the securities sold by the securities
company.

##### Table of Contents

When a customer places a sell order with a securities company which is not a member of the Stock Market
Division or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange and this securities company places a sell order with another securities company, which is a member of the Stock Market Division or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange, the
customer is still entitled to the proceeds of the securities sold and received by the non-member company from the member company regardless of the bankruptcy or reorganization of the non-member company.

Under the Korean Securities and Exchange Act, the Korea Exchange is obliged to indemnify any loss or damage incurred by a counterparty as a result of a
breach by members of the Stock Market Division or the KOSDAQ Market Division. If a securities company which is a member of the Stock Market Division or the KOSDAQ Market Division breaches its obligation in connection with a buy order, the Korea
Exchange is obliged to pay the purchase price on behalf of the breaching member. Therefore, the customer can acquire the securities that have been ordered to be purchased by the breaching member.

When a customer places a buy order with a non-member company and the non-member company places a buy order with a member company, the customer has the
legal right to the securities received by the non-member company from the member company because the purchased securities are regarded as belonging to the customer in so far as the customer and the non-member companys creditors are concerned.

As the cash deposited with a securities company is regarded as belonging to the securities company, which is liable to return the same at
the request of its customer, the customer cannot take back deposited cash from the securities company if a bankruptcy or reorganization procedure is instituted against the securities company and, therefore, can suffer from loss or damage as a
result. However, the Depositor Protection Act provides that the Korea Deposit Insurance Corporation will, upon the request of the investors, pay investors an amount equal to the full amount of cash deposited with a securities company prior to
August 1, 1998 in case of the securities companys bankruptcy, liquidation, cancellation of securities business license or other insolvency events. However, this indemnification had been available only until the end of 2000. From 2001, the
maximum amount to be paid to each customer is limited to (Won)50 million. Pursuant to the Korean Securities and Exchange Act, as amended, securities companies are required to deposit the cash received from its customers to the extent the amount is
not covered by the insurance with the Korea Securities Finance Corporation, a special entity established pursuant to the Korean Securities and Exchange Act. Set-off or attachment of cash deposits by securities companies is prohibited. The premiums
related to this insurance are paid by securities companies.

Item 10B.Memorandum and Articles of Association

Description of Capital Stock

This section provides information relating to our capital stock, including brief summaries of material provisions of our current articles of
incorporation, the Korean Securities and Exchange Act and the Commercial Code of Korea. The following summaries are subject to, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to, our articles of incorporation and the applicable provisions of the
Korean Securities and Exchange Act and the Commercial Code.

General

Currently, our authorized share capital is 400,000,000 shares, which consists of shares of common stock and non-voting preferred stock, both with par value of (Won)5,000 per share. Under our articles of incorporation,
we are authorized to issue preferred stock of up to 40,000,000 shares. As of December 31, 2005, 357,815,700 shares of common stock were issued. All of the issued and outstanding shares are fully-paid and non-assessable and are in registered
form. We issue share certificates in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 50, 100, 500, 1,000 and 10,000 shares.

Dividends

We distribute dividends to our shareholders in proportion to the number of shares owned by each shareholder. The shares represented by the ADSs have the
same dividend rights as other outstanding shares.

Holders of preferred shares are entitled to receive dividends in priority to the holders
of common shares. The amount of dividends for preferred shares is determined by our board of directors within a range of 1% to 10% of par value at the time the shares are issued, provided that if the dividend amount on the common shares exceeds that
on the preferred shares, holders of preferred shares will also participate in the distribution of the excess dividend amount in the same proportion as holders of common shares. If the amount available for dividends is less than the aggregate amount
of such minimum dividend, the holders of preferred shares will be entitled to receive the accumulated unpaid dividends in priority to the holders of common shares from the dividends payable in respect of the next fiscal year.

We declare dividends annually at the annual general meeting of shareholders which is held within three months after the end of the fiscal year. We pay
the annual dividend shortly after the annual general meeting to the shareholders of record as of the end of the preceding fiscal year. We may distribute the annual dividend in cash or in shares. However, a dividend of shares must be distributed at
par value. If the market price of the shares is less than their par value, dividends in shares may not exceed one-half of the annual dividend. We have no obligation to pay any annual dividend unclaimed for five years from the payment date.

Under the Commercial Code, we may pay an annual dividend only out of the excess of our net assets, on a non-consolidated basis, over the
sum of (1) our stated capital and (2) the total amount of our capital surplus reserve and legal reserve accumulated up to the end of the relevant dividend period. We may not pay an annual dividend unless we have set aside a legal reserve
in an amount equal to at least 10% of the cash portion of the annual dividend or unless we have accumulated a legal reserve of not less than one-half of our stated capital. Financial Supervisory Commission regulations applicable to companies listed
on the Korea Exchange require companies to set aside specified amounts as financial structure improvement reserves until the ratio of stockholders equity to total assets reaches 30.0%. We may not use legal reserves to pay cash dividends but
may transfer amounts from legal reserves to capital stock or use legal reserves to reduce an accumulated deficit.

Also, we may pay
quarterly dividends in accordance with a resolution of the board of directors to our shareholders who are registered in the shareholders register as of the end of March, June or September, and such quarterly dividends shall be made in cash.

Distribution of Free Shares

In addition to paying dividends in shares out of our retained or current earnings, we may also distribute to our shareholders an amount transferred from our capital surplus or legal reserve to our stated capital in
the form of free shares. Free shares are shares newly issued to existing shareholders without consideration, much like stock dividends, except that in the case of free shares a portion of the reserves, as opposed to earnings, is transferred to
capital. We must distribute such free shares to all of our shareholders in proportion to their existing shareholdings. We may distribute free shares when we determine that our capital surplus or legal reserves are too large relative to our paid-in
capital.

We may issue authorized but unissued shares at the times and, unless otherwise provided in the Commercial Code, on the terms our board of directors may determine. All of our shareholders are generally entitled to
subscribe for any newly issued shares in proportion to their existing shareholdings. We must offer new shares on uniform terms to all shareholders who have preemptive rights and are listed on our shareholders register as of the relevant record
date. However, under the Commercial Code, we may vary the specific terms of these preemptive rights for different classes of shares without shareholder approval. To the extent that such different terms result in placing any particular class of
shareholders at a disadvantage relative to other classes, a special resolution by that disadvantaged class of shareholders is necessary.

We must give public notice of the preemptive rights regarding new shares and their transferability at least two weeks before the relevant record date. Our board of directors may determine how to distribute shares for which preemptive rights
have not been exercised or where fractions of shares occur.

Under our articles of incorporation, we may issue new shares pursuant to a
board resolution to persons other than existing shareholders, who however will not have preemptive rights, if the new shares are, among others:



| |  |  | publicly offered pursuant to the Korean Securities and Exchange Act;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | issued to members of our employee stock ownership association;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | represented by depositary receipts;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------



| |  |  | issued upon exercise of stock options granted to our officers and employees;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | issued to a domestic or overseas financial institution for an urgent need for funds; or
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | issued for the purpose of drawing foreign investment when we deem it necessary for our business needs.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition, we may issue convertible bonds or bonds with warrants, up to an aggregate face amount of (Won)1 trillion to persons other than existing
shareholders. The classes of shares to be issued upon conversion of bonds or exercise of warrants shall be common shares up to (Won)600 billion in face value of the bonds with warrants and convertible bonds and preferred shares up to (Won)400
billion in face value of the bonds with warrants and convertible bonds.

Members of our employee stock ownership association, whether or
not they are our shareholders, generally have a preemptive right to subscribe for up to 20% of the shares publicly offered pursuant to the Korean Securities and Exchange Act. As of December 31, 2005, approximately 0.1% of the outstanding shares
were held by our employee stock ownership association.

General Meeting of Shareholders

We hold the annual general meeting of shareholders within three months after the end of each fiscal year. Subject to a board resolution or court approval,
we may hold an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders:



| |  |  | as necessary;
| | - |  | -------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | at the request of holders of an aggregate of 3% or more of our outstanding shares;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | at the request of shareholders holding an aggregate of 1.5% or more of our outstanding shares for at least six months; or
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | at the request of our audit committee.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------

Holders of
preferred shares may request a general meeting of shareholders only after the preferred shares become entitled to vote or are enfranchised, as described under Voting Rights below.

We must give shareholders written notice setting out the date, place and agenda of the meeting at least two weeks before the date of the general meeting
of shareholders. However, for holders of less than 1% of the total number of issued and outstanding voting shares, we may give notice by placing at least two public notices in at least two daily newspapers at least two weeks in advance of the
meeting. We will use Maeil Business Newspaper and The Chosun Ilbo, published in Seoul, for public notice purposes. Shareholders not on the shareholders register as of the record date are not entitled to receive notice of the
general meeting of shareholders, attend or vote at the meeting. Holders of non-voting preferred shares, unless enfranchised, are not entitled to receive notice of general meetings of shareholders.

The place of our general meetings of shareholders is decided by our board of directors, which can be our head office or any other place within Korea.

Voting Rights

Holders of our common
shares are entitled to one vote for each common share, except that voting rights of common shares held by us, or by a corporate shareholder that is more than 10% owned by us either directly or indirectly, may not be exercised. The Commercial Code
permits cumulative voting, under which voting method each shareholder would have multiple voting rights corresponding to the number of directors to be appointed in the voting and may exercise all voting rights cumulatively to elect one director.
However, our articles of incorporation prohibit cumulative voting.

According to our current articles of incorporation, our shareholders
may adopt resolutions at a general meeting by an affirmative majority vote of the voting shares present or represented at the meeting, where the affirmative votes also represent at least one-fourth of our total voting shares then issued and
outstanding. However, under the Commercial Code and our articles of incorporation, the following matters, among others, require approval by the holders of at least two-thirds of the shares present or represented at a meeting, where the affirmative
votes also represent at least one-third of our total voting shares then issued and outstanding:



| |  |  | amending our articles of incorporation;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------



| |  |  | removing a director;
| | - |  | --------------------



| |  |  | effecting any dissolution, merger or consolidation of us;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | transferring the whole or any significant part of our business;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | effecting our acquisition of all of the business of any other company;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | effecting our acquisition of a part of the business of any other company that has a material effect on our business; or
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | issuing any new shares at a price lower than their par value.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------

In general, holders of preferred shares are not entitled to vote on any resolution or receive notice of any general meeting of shareholders. However, in the case of amendments to our articles of incorporation, any merger or consolidation
involving us, capital reductions or in certain other cases in which the rights or interests

##### Table of Contents

of the preferred shares are affected, approval of the holders of preferred shares is required. We may obtain such approval by a resolution of holders of at
least two-thirds of the preferred shares present or represented at a class meeting of the holders of preferred shares, where the affirmative votes also represent at least one-third of our total issued and outstanding preferred shares. In addition,
if we are unable to pay dividends on preferred shares as provided in our articles of incorporation, the holders of preferred shares will become enfranchised and will be entitled to exercise voting rights until those dividends are paid. The holders
of enfranchised preferred shares have the same rights as holders of common shares to request, receive notice of, attend and vote at a general meeting of shareholders.

Shareholders may exercise their voting rights by proxy.

Holders of ADRs exercise their voting rights
through the ADR depositary, an agent of which is the record holder of the underlying shares. Subject to the provisions of the deposit agreement, ADR holders are entitled to instruct the ADR depositary how to vote the shares underlying their ADSs.

Rights of Dissenting Shareholders

In
some limited circumstances, including the transfer of the whole or any significant part of our business and our merger or consolidation with another company, dissenting shareholders have the right to require us to purchase their shares. To exercise
this right, shareholders must submit to us a written notice of their intention to dissent before the general meeting of shareholders. Within 20 days after the relevant resolution is passed at a meeting, the dissenting shareholders must request us in
writing to purchase their shares. We are obligated to purchase the shares of dissenting shareholders no later than one month after the end of such 20-day period. The purchase price for the shares is required to be determined through negotiation
between the dissenting shareholders and us. If we cannot agree on a price through negotiation, the purchase price will be the average of (1) the weighted average of the daily share prices on the Korea Exchange for the two-month period before
the date of the adoption of the relevant board resolution, (2) the weighted average of the daily share price on the Korea Exchange for the one- month period before the date of the adoption of the relevant board resolution and (3) the
weighted average of the daily share price on the Korea Exchange for the one-week period before the date of the adoption of the relevant board resolution. However, the Financial Supervisory Commission may adjust this price if we or 30% or more of the
dissenting shareholders do not accept the purchase price. Holders of ADSs will not be able to exercise dissenters rights unless they have withdrawn the underlying common stock and become our direct shareholders.

Register of Shareholders and Record Dates

Our
transfer agent, Korea Securities Depository, maintains the register of our shareholders at its office in Seoul, Korea. It will register transfers of shares on the register of shareholders on presentation of the share certificates.

The record date for annual dividends is December 31. For the purpose of determining the shareholders entitled to annual dividends, the register of
shareholders may be closed for the period from January 1 to January 31 of each year. Further, for the purpose of determining the shareholders entitled to some other rights pertaining to the shares, we may, on at least two weeks
public notice, set a record date and/or close the register of shareholders for not more than three months.

Business Report

At least one week before the annual general meeting of shareholders, we must make our business report and audited non-consolidated Korean GAAP financial
statements available for inspection at our principal office and at all of our branch offices. In addition, copies of business reports, the audited non-consolidated Korean GAAP financial statements and any resolutions adopted at the general meeting
of shareholders will be available to our shareholders.



93

##### Table of Contents

Under the Korean Securities and Exchange Act, we must file with the Financial Supervisory Commission and
the Korea Exchange (1) a yearly report (including audited non-consolidated financial statements and audited consolidated financial statements) within 90 days after the end of our fiscal year; provided that the audited consolidated financial
statements may be separately submitted within 120 calendar days of the end of the fiscal year, and (2) interim reports with respect to the three-month period, six-month period and nine-month period from the beginning of each fiscal year within
45 calendar days following the end of each period. Copies of these reports will be available for public inspection at the Financial Supervisory Commission and the Korea Exchange.

Transfer of Shares

Under the Commercial Code, the transfer of shares is effected by delivery of
share certificates. However, to assert shareholders rights against us, the transferee must have his name and address registered on our register of shareholders. For this purpose, a shareholder is required to file his name, address and seal
with us. A non-Korean shareholder may file a specimen signature in place of a seal, unless he is a citizen of a country with a sealing system similar to that of Korea. In addition, a non-resident shareholder must appoint an agent authorized to
receive notices on his behalf in Korea and file a mailing address in Korea. The above requirements do not apply to the holders of ADSs.

Under current Korean regulations, Korean securities companies and banks, including licensed branches of non-Korean securities companies and banks, investment management companies, futures trading companies and internationally recognized
foreign custodians and the Korea Securities Depository may act as agents and provide related services for foreign shareholders. Certain foreign exchange controls and securities regulations apply to the transfer of shares by non-residents or
non-Koreans. See Korean Foreign Exchange Controls and Securities Regulations.

Acquisition of Shares by Us

In principle, we may not acquire our own shares except in limited circumstances, such as a reduction in capital.

Notwithstanding the foregoing restriction, we may acquire shares through purchases on the Korea Exchange or through a tender offer. We may also acquire
interests in our own shares through agreements with trust companies, securities investment trust companies and securities investment companies. The aggregate purchase price for shares purchased through such means may not exceed the total amount
available for distribution of dividends at the end of the preceding fiscal year, subject to certain procedural requirements.

Liquidation Rights

In the event of our liquidation, after payment of all debts, liquidation expenses and taxes, our remaining assets will be distributed
among shareholders in proportion to their shareholdings. Holders of preferred shares have no preference in liquidation.



|Item 10C. | Material Contracts
|--------- | ------------------

Certain material
contracts are discussed under Item 7A. above where relevant.

In addition, in February 2005, we entered into a strategic joint venture
agreement with Nippon Electric Glass Co., Ltd., or NEG, to form a new joint venture company, named Paju Electric Glass Co., Ltd., which is located in Paju. We and NEG made a total capital investment of (Won)36 billion in 2005. We currently own 40%
of the new company. Paju Electric Glass began construction of the glass polishing and processing facility in the third quarter of 2005 and commenced mass production in February 2006. The foregoing summary of the joint venture agreement with NEG does
not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Joint Venture Agreement, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to this annual report.

|Item 10D. | Exchange Controls
|--------- | -----------------

The
Foreign Exchange Transaction Act and the Presidential Decree and regulations under that Act and Decree, which we refer to collectively as the Foreign Exchange Transaction Laws, regulate investment in Korean securities by non-residents and issuance
of securities outside Korea by Korean companies. Non-residents may invest in Korean securities pursuant to the Foreign Exchange Transaction Laws. The Financial Supervisory Commission has also adopted, pursuant to its authority under the Korean
Securities and Exchange Act, regulations that restrict investment by foreigners in Korean securities and regulate issuance of securities outside Korea by Korean companies.

Subject to certain limitations, the Ministry of Finance and Economy has the authority to take the following actions under the Foreign Exchange
Transaction Laws:



| |  |  | if the government deems it necessary on account of war, armed conflict, natural disaster or grave and sudden and significant changes in domestic or foreign economic circumstances or
similar events or circumstances, the Ministry of Finance and Economy may temporarily suspend performance under any or all foreign exchange transactions, in whole or in part, to which the Foreign Exchange Transaction Laws apply (including suspension
of payment and receipt of foreign exchange) or impose an obligation to deposit, safe-keep or sell any means of payment to The Bank of Korea or certain other governmental agencies or financial institutions; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | if the government concludes that the international balance of payments and international financial markets are experiencing or are likely to experience significant disruption or
that the movement of capital between Korea and other countries are likely to adversely affect the Korean Won, exchange rates or other macroeconomic policies, the Ministry of Finance and Economy may take action to require any person who intends to
effect or effects a capital transaction to deposit all or a portion of the means of payment acquired in such transactions with The Bank of Korea or certain other governmental agencies or financial institutions.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Government Review of Issuance of ADSs

In order for
us to issue ADSs outside Korea, we are required to submit a report to the Ministry of Finance and Economy or our designated foreign exchange bank (depending on the aggregate issue amount) with respect to the issuance of the ADSs. No further
governmental approval is necessary for the offering and issuance of the ADSs.

Under current Korean laws and regulations and the terms of
the deposit agreement, the depositary is required to obtain our consent for the number of shares of common stock to be deposited in any given proposed deposit that exceeds the difference between:



| | (1) | the aggregate number of shares of our common stock deposited by us for the issuance of our ADSs (including deposits in connection with the initial issuance and all subsequent
offerings of our ADSs and stock dividends or other distributions related to these ADSs); and
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (2) | the number of shares of our common stock on deposit with the depositary at the time of such proposed deposit.
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We can give no assurance that we would, subject to governmental authorization, grant our consent, if our consent is required. Therefore, a holder of ADRs
who surrenders ADRs and withdraws shares may not be permitted subsequently to deposit those shares and obtain ADRs.

Reporting Requirements for Holders
of Substantial Interests

Under the Korean Securities and Exchange Act, any person whose direct or beneficial ownership of our common
stock with voting rights, whether in the form of shares of common stock or ADSs, certificates

##### Table of Contents

representing the rights to subscribe for shares and equity-related debt securities including convertible bonds, bonds with warrants and exchangeable bonds,
which we refer to collectively as equity securities, together with the equity securities beneficially owned by certain related persons or by any person acting in concert with the person, accounts for 5% or more of our total outstanding equity
securities, is required to report the status and purpose (in terms of whether the purpose of the shareholding is to exercise control over the management of the issuer) of the holdings to the Financial Supervisory Commission and the Korea Exchange
within five business days after reaching the 5% ownership interest. In addition, any change (i) in the ownership interest subsequent to the report that equals or exceeds 1% of the total outstanding equity securities (plus the equity securities
of us other than common stock held by such persons) or (ii) in the shareholding purpose, is required to be reported to the Financial Supervisory Commission and the Korea Exchange within five business days from the date of the change.

Violation of these reporting requirements may subject a person to criminal sanctions such as fines or imprisonment and/or a loss of voting
rights with respect to the ownership of equity securities exceeding 5%. Furthermore, the Financial Supervisory Commission may order the disposal of the unreported equity securities.

In addition to the reporting requirements described above, any person whose direct or beneficial ownership of our voting stock accounts for 10% or more
of the total issued and outstanding voting stock, which we refer to as a major shareholder, must report the status of his/her shareholding to the Korea Securities Futures Commission and the Korea Exchange within ten days after he/she becomes a major
shareholder. In addition, any change in the ownership interest subsequent to the report must be reported to the Korea Securities Futures Commission and the Korea Exchange within the 10th day of the month following the month in which the change
occurred. Violation of these reporting requirements may subject a person to criminal sanctions such as fines or imprisonment.

Restrictions Applicable
to ADSs

No Korean governmental approval is necessary for the sale and purchase of our ADSs in the secondary market outside Korea or for
the withdrawal of shares of our common stock underlying the ADSs and the delivery inside Korea of shares in connection with the withdrawal, provided, that a foreigner who intends to acquire the shares must obtain an investment registration card from
the Financial Supervisory Service as described below. The acquisition of the shares by a foreigner must be immediately reported to the governor of the Financial Supervisory Commission, either by the foreigner or by his standing proxy in Korea.

Persons who have acquired shares of our common stock as a result of the withdrawal of shares underlying our ADSs may exercise their
preemptive rights for new shares, participate in free distributions and receive dividends on shares without any further Korean governmental approval.

Restrictions Applicable to Shares

As a result of amendments to the Foreign Exchange Transaction Laws and Financial
Supervisory Commission regulations, which we refer to collectively as the Investment Rules, adopted in connection with the stock market opening from January 1992 and after that date, foreigners may invest, with limited exceptions and subject to
procedural requirements, in all shares of Korean companies listed on the Stock Market Division or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange unless prohibited by specific laws. Foreign investors may trade shares listed on the Stock Market
Division or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange only through the Stock Market Division or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange, except in limited circumstances, including:



| |  |  | odd-lot trading of shares;
| | - |  | --------------------------



| |  |  | acquisition of shares, which we refer to as converted shares, by exercise of warrants, conversion rights or exchange rights under bonds with warrants, convertible bonds or
exchangeable bonds or withdrawal rights under depositary receipts issued outside of Korea by a Korean company;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | acquisition of shares as a result of inheritance, donation, bequest or exercise of shareholders rights, including preemptive rights or rights to participate in free
distributions and receive dividends; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | over-the-counter transactions between foreigners of a class of shares for which the ceiling on aggregate acquisition by foreigners, as explained below, has been reached or exceeded
subject to certain exceptions.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For over-the-counter transactions of shares between foreigners outside the Stock Market
Division or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange for shares with respect to which the limit on aggregate foreign ownership has been reached or exceeded, a securities company licensed in Korea must act as an intermediary. Odd-lot trading
of shares outside the Stock Market Division or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange must involve a licensed securities company in Korea as the other party. Foreign investors are prohibited from engaging in margin transactions with
respect to shares that are subject to a foreign ownership limit.

The Investment Rules require a foreign investor who wishes to invest in
shares on the Stock Market Division or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange (including converted shares and shares being issued for initial listing on the Stock Market Division or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange) to
register its identity with the Financial Supervisory Service prior to making any such investment. However, the registration requirement does not apply to foreign investors who acquire converted shares (including upon conversion of ADSs into shares,
upon exercise of conversion rights of convertible bonds, etc.) with the intention of selling such converted shares within three months from the date of acquisition of the converted shares. Upon registration, the Financial Supervisory Service will
issue to the foreign investor an investment registration card, which must be presented each time the foreign investor opens a brokerage account with a securities company. Foreigners eligible to obtain an investment registration card include foreign
nationals who have not been residing in Korea for a consecutive period of six months or more, foreign governments, foreign municipal authorities, foreign public institutions, international financial institutions or similar international
organizations, corporations incorporated under foreign laws and any person in any additional category designated by decree of the Ministry of Finance and Economy under the Korean Securities and Exchange Act. All Korean offices of a foreign
corporation as a group are treated as a separate foreigner from the offices of the corporation outside Korea for the purpose of investment registration. However, a foreign corporation or depositary issuing depositary receipts may obtain one or more
investment registration cards in its name in certain circumstances as described in the relevant regulations.

Upon a foreign
investors purchase of shares through the Stock Market Division or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange, no separate report by the investor is required because the investment registration card system is designed to control and
oversee foreign investment through a computer system. However, a foreign investors acquisition or sale of shares outside the Stock Market Division or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange (as discussed above) must be reported by the
foreign investor or his standing proxy to the governor of the Financial Supervisory Service at the time of each such acquisition or sale; provided, however, that a foreign investor must ensure that any acquisition or sale by it of shares outside the
Stock Market Division or the KOSDAQ Market Division of the Korea Exchange in the case of trades in connection with a tender offer, odd-lot trading of shares or trades of a class of shares for which the aggregate foreign ownership limit has been
reached or exceeded, is reported to the governor of the Financial Supervisory Service by the securities company engaged to facilitate such transaction. A foreign investor may appoint a standing proxy from among the Korea Securities Depository,
foreign exchange banks (including domestic branches of foreign banks), securities companies (including domestic branches of foreign securities companies), investment trust companies, futures trading companies and internationally recognized
custodians which will act as a standing proxy to exercise shareholders rights or perform any matters related to the foregoing activities if the foreign investor does not perform these activities himself. Generally, a foreign investor may not
permit any person, other than its standing proxy, to exercise rights relating to his shares or perform any tasks related thereto on his behalf. However, a foreign investor may be exempted from complying with these standing proxy rules

##### Table of Contents

with the approval of the governor of the Financial Supervisory Service in cases deemed inevitable by reason of conflict between laws of Korea and the home
country of the foreign investor.

Certificates evidencing shares of Korean companies must be kept in custody with an eligible custodian in
Korea. Only foreign exchange banks (including domestic branches of foreign banks), securities companies (including domestic branches of foreign securities companies), the Korea Securities Depository, investment trust companies, futures trading
companies and internationally recognized custodians are eligible to act as a custodian of shares for a non-resident or foreign investor. A foreign investor must ensure that his custodian deposits his shares with the Korea Securities Depository.
However, a foreign investor may be exempted from complying with this deposit requirement with the approval of the governor of the Financial Supervisory Service in circumstances where compliance with that requirement is made impracticable, including
cases where compliance would contravene the laws of the home country of such foreign investor.

Under the Investment Rules, with certain
exceptions, foreign investors may acquire shares of a Korean company without being subject to any foreign investment ceiling. As one such exception, designated public corporations are subject to a 40% ceiling on the acquisition of shares by
foreigners in the aggregate. Designated public corporations may set a ceiling on the acquisition of shares by a single person within 3% of the total number of shares. Currently, Korea Electric Power Corporation is the only designated public
corporation which has no ceiling specifically set for foreign shareholders but has set a ceiling on the acquisition of shares by a single person regardless of its nationality within 3% of the total number of shares by its articles of incorporation.
Furthermore, an investment by a foreign investor in 10% or more of the outstanding shares with voting rights of a Korean company is defined as a foreign direct investment under the Foreign Investment Promotion Act of Korea. Generally, a foreign
direct investment must be reported to the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy of Korea. The acquisition of shares of a Korean company by a foreign investor may also be subject to certain foreign or other shareholding restrictions in the event
that the restrictions are prescribed in a specific law that regulates the business of the Korean company.

Under the Foreign Exchange
Transaction Laws, a foreign investor who intends to acquire shares must designate a foreign exchange bank at which he must open a foreign currency account and a Korean Won account exclusively for stock investments. No approval is required for
remittance into Korea and deposit of foreign currency funds in the foreign currency account. Foreign currency funds may be transferred from the foreign currency account at the time required to place a deposit for, or settle the purchase price of, a
stock purchase transaction to a Korean Won account opened at a securities company. Funds in the foreign currency account may be remitted abroad without any Korean governmental approval.

Dividends on shares of Korean companies are paid in Korean Won. No Korean governmental approval is required for foreign investors to receive dividends
on, or the Korean Won proceeds of the sale of, any shares to be paid, received and retained in Korea. Dividends paid on, and the Korean Won proceeds of the sale of, any shares held by a non-resident of Korea must be deposited either in a Korean Won
account with the investors securities company or in his Korean Won account. Funds in the investors Korean Won account may be transferred to his foreign currency account or withdrawn for local living expenses up to certain limitations.
Funds in the Korean Won account may also be used for future investment in shares or for payment of the subscription price of new shares obtained through the exercise of preemptive rights.

Securities companies and investment trust companies are allowed to open foreign currency accounts with foreign exchange banks exclusively for
accommodating foreign investors stock investments in Korea. Through these accounts, securities companies and investment trust companies may enter into foreign exchange transactions on a limited basis, such as conversion of foreign currency
funds and Korean Won funds, either as a counterparty to or on behalf of foreign investors, without the investors having to open their own accounts with foreign exchange banks.

Item 10E.Taxation

The following summary is based upon the tax laws of the United States
and the Republic of Korea as in effect on the date of this annual report, and is subject to any change in United States or Korean law that may come into effect after such date. Investors in the shares of common stock or ADSs are advised to consult
their own tax advisers as to the United States, Korean or other tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of such securities, including the effect of any national, state or local tax laws.

Korean Taxation

The following summary of Korean tax
considerations applies to you so long as you are not:



| |  |  | a resident of Korea;
| | - |  | --------------------



| |  |  | a corporation organized under Korean law; or
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------



| |  |  | engaged in a trade or business in Korea through a permanent establishment or a fixed base to which the relevant income is attributable or with which the relevant income is
effectively connected.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Taxation of Dividends on Shares of Common Stock or ADSs

We will deduct Korean withholding tax from dividends (whether in cash or in shares) paid to you at a rate of 27.5% (including resident surtax). If you are
a qualified resident in a country that has entered into a tax treaty with Korea, you may qualify for a reduced rate of Korean withholding tax. See Tax Treaties below for a discussion on treaty benefits. If we distribute to you free
shares representing a transfer of certain capital reserves or asset revaluation reserves into paid-in capital, that distribution may be subject to Korean withholding tax.

In order to obtain a reduced rate of withholding tax pursuant to an applicable tax treaty, you must submit to us, prior to the dividend payment date, such evidence of tax residence as the Korean tax authorities may
require in order to establish your entitlement to the benefits of the applicable tax treaty. A holder of ADSs may submit evidence of tax residence to us through the depositary.

Taxation of Capital Gains from Transfer of Shares of Common Stock or ADSs

As a general rule, capital gains earned by non-residents upon transfer of shares of our common stock or ADSs are subject to Korean withholding tax at the
lower of (1) 11% (including resident surtax) of the gross proceeds realized or (2) subject to the production of satisfactory evidence of acquisition costs and certain direct transaction costs of the shares or ADSs, 27.5% (including
resident surtax) of the net realized gain, unless exempt from Korean income taxation under the applicable Korean tax treaty with the non-residents country of tax residence. See Tax Treaties below for a discussion on treaty
benefits. Even if you do not qualify for an exemption under a tax treaty, you will not be subject to the foregoing withholding tax on capital gains if you qualify under the relevant Korean domestic tax law exemptions discussed in the following
paragraphs.

With respect to shares of our common stock, you will not be subject to Korean income taxation on capital gains realized upon
the transfer of such shares through the Korea Exchange if you (1) have no permanent establishment in Korea and (2) did not own or have not owned (together with any shares owned by any entity with which you have a certain special
relationship and possibly including the shares represented by the ADSs) 25% or more of our total issued and outstanding shares at any time during the calendar year in which the sale occurs and during the five calendar years prior to the calendar
year in which the sale occurs.

Under a tax ruling issued by the Korean tax authority in 1995 (the 1995 tax ruling), ADSs are
treated as securities separate from the underlying shares represented by such ADSs and, based on such ruling, (i) capital gains earned by you from the transfer of ADSs to another non-resident (other than to such transferees permanent
establishment in Korea) will not be subject to Korean income taxation and (ii) capital gains earned by you



99

##### Table of Contents

(regardless of whether you have a permanent establishment in Korea) from the transfer of ADSs outside Korea will be exempt from Korean income taxation by
virtue of the Special Tax Treatment Control Law of Korea, or the STTCL, provided that the issuance of the ADSs is deemed to be an overseas issuance under the STTCL.

If you are subject to tax on capital gains with respect to the sale of ADSs, or of shares of common stock which you acquired as a result of a withdrawal, the purchaser or, in the case of the sale of shares of common
stock on the Korea Exchange or through a licensed securities company in Korea, the licensed securities company, is required to withhold Korean tax from the sales price in an amount equal to 11% (including resident surtax) of the gross realization
proceeds and to make payment of these amounts to the Korean tax authority, unless you establish your entitlement to an exemption under an applicable tax treaty or domestic tax law or produce satisfactory evidence of your acquisition cost and
transaction costs for the shares of common stock or the ADSs. To obtain the benefit of an exemption from tax pursuant to a tax treaty, you must submit to the purchaser or the securities company, or through the ADR depositary, as the case may be,
prior to or at the time of payment, such evidence of your tax residence as the Korean tax authorities may require in support of your claim for treaty benefits. See the discussion under Tax Treaties below for an additional
explanation of claiming treaty benefits.

Tax Treaties

Korea has entered into a number of income tax treaties with other countries, including the United States, which reduce or exempt Korean withholding tax on
dividend income and capital gains on transfer of shares of common stock or ADSs. For example, under the Korea-U.S. income tax treaty, reduced rates of Korean withholding tax on dividends of 16.5% or 11.0%, respectively (including resident surtax),
depending on your shareholding ratio, and an exemption from Korean withholding tax on capital gains are available to residents of the United States that are beneficial owners of the relevant dividend income or capital gains. However, under Article
17 (Investment of Holding Companies) of the Korea-U.S. income tax treaty, such reduced rates and exemption do not apply if (1) you are a United States corporation, (2) by reason of any special measures, the tax imposed on you by the United
States with respect to such dividends or capital gains is substantially less than the tax generally imposed by the United States on corporate profits, and (3) 25% or more of your capital is held of record or is otherwise determined, after
consultation between competent authorities of the United States and Korea, to be owned directly or indirectly by one or more persons who are not individual residents of the United States. Also, under Article 16 (Capital Gains) of the Korea-U.S.
income tax treaty, the exemption on capital gains does not apply if you are an individual, and (a) you maintain a fixed base in Korea for a period or periods aggregating 183 days or more during the taxable year and your ADSs or shares of common
stock giving rise to capital gains are effectively connected with such fixed base or (b) you are present in Korea for a period or periods of 183 days or more during the taxable year.

You should inquire for yourself whether you are entitled to the benefit of an income tax treaty with Korea. It is the responsibility of the party
claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty in respect of dividend payments or capital gains to submit to us, the purchaser or the securities company, as applicable, a certificate as to his tax residence. In the absence of sufficient proof, we,
the purchaser or the securities company, as applicable, must withhold tax at the normal rates. Furthermore, effective from July 1, 2002, in order for you to obtain the benefit of a tax exemption on certain Korean source income (e.g., dividends
and capital gains) under an applicable tax treaty, Korean tax law requires you (or your agent) to submit the application for tax exemption along with a certificate of your tax residency issued by a competent authority of your country of tax
residence, subject to certain exceptions. Such application should be submitted to the relevant district tax office by the ninth day of the month following the date of the first payment of such income.

Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax

If you die while holding an ADS or donate an ADS, it is unclear whether, for Korean inheritance and gift tax purposes, you will be treated as the owner of the shares of common stock underlying the ADSs. If the tax

authority interprets depositary receipts as the underlying share certificates, you may be treated as the owner of the shares of common stock and your heir or
the donee (or in certain circumstances, you as the donor) will be subject to Korean inheritance or gift tax presently at the rate of 10% to 50% based on the value of the ADSs or shares of common stock and the identity of the individual against whom
the tax is assessed.

If you die while holding a share of common stock or donate a share of common stock, your heir or donee (or in certain
circumstances, you as the donor) will be subject to Korean inheritance or gift tax at the same rate as indicated above.

At present, Korea
has not entered into any tax treaty relating to inheritance or gift taxes.

Securities Transaction Tax

If you transfer shares of common stock on the Korea Exchange, you will be subject to securities transaction tax at the rate of 0.15% and an agriculture
and fishery special surtax at the rate of 0.15% of the sale price of the shares of common stock. If your transfer of the shares of common stock is not made on the Korea Exchange, subject to certain exceptions, you will be subject to a securities
transaction tax at the rate of 0.5% and will not be subject to an agriculture and fishery special surtax.

With respect to transfer of
ADSs, a tax ruling issued in 2004 by the Korean tax authority (the 2004 tax ruling) appears to hold that depositary receipts (which the ADSs fall under) constitute share certificates subject to the securities transaction tax; provided
that, under the Securities Transaction Tax Law, the transfer of depositary receipts listed on the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq National Market or other qualified foreign exchanges is exempt from the securities transaction tax.

In principle, the securities transaction tax, if applicable, must be paid by the transferor of the shares or certain rights including rights to subscribe
to each shares. When the transfer is effected through a securities settlement company, such settlement company is generally required to withhold and pay the tax to the tax authorities. When such transfer is made through a securities company only,
such securities company is required to withhold and pay the tax. Where the transfer is effected by a non-resident without a permanent establishment in Korea, other than through a securities settlement company or a securities company, the transferee
is required to withhold the securities transaction tax.

United States Taxation

This summary describes certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences for a U.S. holder (as defined below) of acquiring, owning, and disposing of
ADSs. This summary applies to you only if you hold the ADSs as capital assets for tax purposes. This summary does not apply to you if you are a member of a class of holders subject to special rules, such as:



| |  |  | a dealer in securities or currencies;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------



| |  |  | a trader in securities that elects to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for securities holdings;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a bank;
| | - |  | -------



| |  |  | a life insurance company;
| | - |  | -------------------------



| |  |  | a tax-exempt organization;
| | - |  | --------------------------



| |  |  | a person that holds ADSs that are a hedge or that are hedged against interest rate or currency risks;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a person that holds ADSs as part of a straddle or conversion transaction for tax purposes;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents

| |  |  | a person whose functional currency for tax purposes is not the U.S. dollar; or
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a person that owns or is deemed to own 10% or more of any class of our stock.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This summary is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, its legislative history, existing and proposed regulations promulgated thereunder, published rulings and court decisions, all as currently in
effect. These laws are subject to change, possibly on a retroactive basis.

Please consult your own tax advisors concerning the
consequences of purchasing, owning, and disposing of ADSs in your particular circumstances, including the possible application of state, local, non-U.S. or other tax laws.

For purposes of this summary, you are a U.S. holder if you are a beneficial owner of an ADS and you are:



| |  |  | a citizen or resident of the United States;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a U.S. domestic corporation; or
| | - |  | -------------------------------



| |  |  | otherwise subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis with respect to income from the ADS.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In general, if you are the beneficial owner of ADSs, you will be treated as the beneficial owner of the common stock represented by those ADSs for U.S.
federal income tax purposes, and no gain or loss will be recognized if you exchange an ADS for the common stock represented by that ADS.

Dividends

The gross amount of cash dividends that you receive (prior to deduction of Korean taxes) generally will be
subject to U.S. federal income taxation as foreign source dividend income. Dividends paid in Korean Won will be included in your income in a U.S. dollar amount calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the date of the
depositarys receipt of the dividend, regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars. If such a dividend is converted into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt, you generally should not be required to recognize foreign
currency gain or loss in respect of the dividend income. Subject to certain exceptions for short-term (60 days or less) and hedged positions, the U.S. dollar amount of dividends received by an individual U.S. holder in respect of ADSs before
January 1, 2009 generally will be subject to taxation at a maximum rate of 15% if the dividends are qualified dividends. Dividends paid on the ADSs will be treated as qualified dividends if (i) the ADSs are readily tradable on
an established securities market in the United States and (ii) we were not, in the year prior to the year in which the dividend was paid, and are not, in the year in which the dividend is paid, a passive foreign investment company
(PFIC). The ADSs are listed on the New York Stock Exchange and will qualify as readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States so long as they are so listed. Based on our audited financial statements and
relevant market and shareholder data, we believe that we were not treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes with respect to our 2005 taxable year. In addition, based on our audited financial statements and our current expectations
regarding the value and nature of our assets, the sources and nature of our income, and relevant market and shareholder data, we do not anticipate becoming a PFIC for our 2006 taxable year.

The U.S. Treasury has announced its intention to promulgate rules pursuant to which holders of ADSs or common stock and intermediaries through whom such
securities are held will be permitted to rely on certifications from issuers to establish that dividends are treated as qualified dividends. Because such procedures have not yet been issued, it is not clear whether we will be able to comply with
them. U.S. holders of ADSs and common shares should consult their own tax advisers regarding the availability of the reduced dividend tax rate in the light of their own particular circumstances.

Distributions of additional shares in respect of ADSs that are made as part of a pro-rata distribution to all of our shareholders generally will not be
subject to U.S. federal income tax.

Sale or Other Disposition

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, gain or loss you realize on the sale or other disposition of ADSs will be treated as U.S. source capital gain or
loss, and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the ADSs were held for more than one year. Your ability to offset capital losses against ordinary income is limited. Long-term capital gain recognized by an individual U.S. holder after May 5,
2003 and before January 1, 2009 generally is subject to taxation at a maximum rate of 15%.

Foreign Tax Credit Considerations

You should consult your own tax advisers to determine whether you are subject to any special rules that limit your ability to make effective use of
foreign tax credits, including the possible adverse impact of failing to take advantage of benefits under the income tax treaty between the United States and Korea. If no such rules apply, you may claim a credit against your U.S. federal income tax
liability for Korean taxes withheld from cash dividends on the ADSs, so long as you have owned the ADSs (and not entered into specified kinds of hedging transactions) for at least a 16-day period that includes the ex-dividend date. Instead of
claiming credit, you may, at your election, deduct such Korean taxes in computing your taxable income, subject to generally applicable limitations under U.S. tax law.

Any Korean securities transaction tax or agriculture and fishery special surtax that you pay will not be creditable for foreign tax credit purposes.

The calculation of foreign tax credits and, in the case of a U.S. holder that elects to deduct foreign taxes, the availability of deductions involve the
application of complex rules that depend on a U.S. holders particular circumstances. You should consult your own tax advisers regarding the creditability or deductibility of such taxes.

U.S. Information Reporting and Backup Withholding Rules

Payments of dividends and sales proceeds that are made within the United States or through certain U.S. related financial intermediaries are subject to information reporting and may be subject to backup withholding
unless the holder (1) is a corporation or other exempt recipient or (2) provides a taxpayer identification number and certifies that no loss of exemption from backup withholding has occurred.

Item 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Overview

Market risk is the risk of loss related to adverse changes in market prices, including interest rates and foreign exchange rates, of financial
instruments. We are exposed to various financial market risks in our ordinary course business transactions, primarily from changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates, and we utilize derivative financial instruments to mitigate these risks.
We also used various derivative instruments, principally forward contracts with maturities of one year or less, to manage our exposure associated with net asset and liability positions and cash flows denominated in foreign currencies. We have used,
and intend to continue to use, these derivative financial instruments only for hedging purposes and not for speculative purposes.

Our
primary market risk exposures relate to interest rate movements on variable rate borrowings and exchange rate movements on foreign currency-denominated accounts receivable, as well as foreign currency-denominated future cash flows, mostly
denominated in U.S. dollars and Japanese yen, and foreign currency-denominated accounts payable for purchases of raw materials and equipment, primarily denominated in Japanese yen. The fair value of our financial instruments has been determined as
the amount at which the instruments could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Fair value is based on quoted market prices where available.

Interest Rate Risks

Our
exposure to interest rate risks relates primarily to our long-term debt obligations, which are typically incurred to fund capital expenditures, as well as for working capital and other general corporate purposes. As of December 31, 2005, we had
outstanding long-term debt, including current portion, in the amount of (Won)3,293.5 billion (US$3,260.9 million). We have entered into derivative transactions with regard to interest rates for our existing U.S. dollar-denominated floating rate
notes. We may enter into similar arrangements in the future to manage our exposure to changes in interest rates.

We may be exposed to
interest rate risks on additional debt financing that we may periodically undertake to fund capital expenditures required for our capacity expansion. Upward fluctuations in interest rates increase the cost of new debt. The interest rate that we will
be able to obtain in a new debt financing will depend on market conditions at that time and may differ from the rates we have secured on our current debt.

As of December 31, 2005, we had US$382.5 million aggregate principal amount of U.S. dollar-denominated senior floating rate notes and US$325.8 million aggregate principal amount of U.S. dollar-denominated
long-term loans outstanding. The interest rate on these notes and loans is set based on three-month LIBOR plus 0.6 to 1.35% and six-month LIBOR plus 0.5% to 1.2%, respectively. Interest rate adjustments are also made based on our debt-to-equity
ratio. The table below provides information about our financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. The risk associated with fluctuating interest expense is principally limited to our U.S. dollar-denominated senior floating
rate notes and U.S. dollar-denominated term loans, and we do not believe that a near-term 10% change in the effective interest rate would have a significant impact on our cash flows. We currently do not have any capital lease obligations.

Foreign Currency Risk

The primary foreign currencies to which we are exposed are the U.S. dollar, the Taiwanese dollar, Euro and the Japanese yen. As of December 31, 2005,
we had U.S. dollar-denominated accounts receivable of US$480 million, which represented 38.7% of our total accounts receivable balance. As of December 31, 2005, we also had Taiwanese dollar-denominated accounts receivable of NT$10,773 million
and Euro-denominated accounts receivable of 142 million, which represented 26.4% and 13.6% of our total accounts receivable balance, respectively. We also had Japanese yen-denominated accounts receivable of ¥16,914 million as of
December 31, 2005, which represented 11.6% of our total accounts receivable balance. In addition, as of December 31, 2005 we had Japanese yen-denominated accounts payable of ¥11,150 million and other accounts payable of ¥16,170
million, arising primarily from our purchases of raw materials and equipment, respectively, from Japanese suppliers.

We enter into
short-term, foreign currency forward contracts with major financial institutions to minimize the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on our results of operations. Gains and losses on foreign currency forward contracts are recorded in the period
of the exchange rate changes as foreign exchange gain or loss or capital adjustment.

The table below sets forth our outstanding foreign
currency forward contracts as of December 31, 2005. Based on our overall foreign currency exposure as of December 31, 2005, including derivative financial instruments, foreign currency-denominated receivables and payables and U.S.-dollar
denominated senior floating rate notes, we do not believe that a short-term 10% appreciation or depreciation of the U.S. dollar against the Korean Won or the Japanese Yen would have a significant effect on our short-term financial condition, results
of operations or cash flows.

We hedge against the effect of exchange rate fluctuations of the U.S. dollar against the Korean Won on our
U.S. dollar debt exposure using cross-currency swap contracts and on our long-term sales exposure using forward contracts. As of December 31, 2005, US$430 million of our US$1,183.3 million aggregate principal amount of U.S. dollar-denominated
long-term borrowings are hedged against foreign exchange rate and interest rate fluctuations. The table below sets out our foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency cross currency swap contracts as of December 31, 2005.

Other Risks

We are exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparties under our foreign currency forward contracts at maturity. In order to minimize this risk, we limit the transaction amount with any one party and continually
monitor the credit quality of the counterparties to these financial instruments. We do not anticipate any material losses from these contracts, and we believe the risk of non-performance by the counterparties under these contracts is remote.

A substantial portion of our sales is attributable to a limited number of our end-brand customers. Our top ten end-brand customers,
including our two principal shareholders as end-brand customers, together accounted for 78.8% of our sales in 2003, 77.4% in 2004 and 73.0% in 2005. While we negotiate directly with our end-brand customers concerning the price and quantity of the
sales, we typically invoice and ship our products to their designated system integrators based on specifications provided by the system integrators. In addition, a significant amount of our sales to end-brand customers and their system integrators
located in certain regions are sold through LG Internationals overseas subsidiaries. Our sales to LG International and its subsidiaries accounted for 10.0%, 5.5% and 7.4% in 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. As a result of our significant
dependence on a concentrated group of end-brand customers and their designated system integrators, as well as the significant amount of sales we make to our affiliated trading company, LG International, and its subsidiaries, we are exposed to credit
risks associated with these entities. Where system integrators located in certain regions are invoiced directly, we have established certain measures, such as factoring arrangements, to protect us from excessive exposure to credit risks.

Our credit policy typically requires payment within 30 to 90 days, and payments on the vast majority of our sales have been collected within 60 days.
We manage our accounts receivable and credit exposure to customers by establishing credit limits for each customer in accordance with our internal credit guidelines. Our sales performance and review committee, which includes the chief financial
officer, the chief marketing and sales officer and the vice-president of finance and risk management, conducts a comprehensive review of all customer credit limits at least once a year. The committee also meets periodically to review the overdue
status of accounts receivable and other credit-related matters, including approval of new credit lines and adjustments to current limits. In addition, we review and monitor credit limits for certain customers on a demand basis. When the requested
increase in credit line exceeds the limit set for that customer by our internal guidelines, we require credit enhancement of various forms, including accounts receivable insurance, factoring and letters of credit. In the absence of such
arrangements, we may provide a special credit limit in accordance with our internal guidelines for additional sales in excess of the customers credit limit. To date we have not experienced any material problems relating to customer payments.

Inflation in Korea, which was 3.6% in 2003, 3.6% in 2004 and 2.7% in 2005, has not had a material impact on our results of operations in
recent years.

Item 15. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We have evaluated, with the participation of our chief executive
officer and chief financial officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2005. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the
possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Based upon our
evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or
submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms, and that it is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer
and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There has been no change in our
internal control over financial reporting during 2005 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 16A.Audit Committee Financial Expert

Our board of directors has determined that
Ingoo Han qualifies as an audit committee financial expert and is independent within the meaning of this Item 16A.

Item 16B.Code of Ethics

We have adopted a code of ethics, as defined in Item 16B of
Form 20-F under the Exchange Act. Our code of ethics applies to our chief executive officer, chief financial officer and persons performing similar functions as well as to our non-executive directors and other officers and employees. Our code of
ethics is available on our website at www.lgphilips-lcd.com. If we amend the provisions of our code of ethics that apply to our chief executive officer and chief financial officer and persons performing similar functions, or if we grant any waiver
of such provisions, we will disclose such amendment or waiver on our website at the same address.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

Our audit committee has not established pre-approval policies and procedures for the engagement of our independent auditors for services. Our audit
committee expressly approves on a case-by-case basis any engagement of our independent auditors for audit and non-audit services provided to our subsidiaries or to us.

The audit committee is permitted to approve certain fees for audit and non-audit services before the completion of the engagement that are recurring, in the ordinary course of business and otherwise comply with the
de minimis exception to the applicable rules of the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission. In 2005, no fees were approved pursuant to the de minimis exception.

Samil PricewaterhouseCoopers has recently notified our audit committee that pension plans that manage pension funds for the benefit of the employees of
three PricewaterhouseCoopers member firms held investments in the equity of Philips Electronics from time to time between 2001 and 2005. PricewaterhouseCoopers became aware of the investments in September 2005 and disposed of all the shareholdings
in Philips Electronics by November 2005. The market value of the Philips Electronics shares owned by each of these pension plans ranged from the U.S. dollar  equivalent of approximately US$112,233 to US$802,753.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commissions auditor independence rules require that, as our independent auditor, PricewaterhouseCoopers maintain
independence from us, as well as from Philips Electronics, to which we are a material investee. Such auditor independence rules extend the definition of an accounting firm to the organizations pension plans. Accordingly, the investments in
Philips Electronics by PricewaterhouseCoopers member firms pension plans are not permitted under the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commissions auditor independence rules.

After conducting an internal review, PricewaterhouseCoopers has concluded that its objectivity and impartiality were unaffected by these investments and
therefore its independence has not been impaired. This conclusion is based on the following:



| |  |  | those professionals who conducted our audit were at all times unaware of the investments;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the investments were held by pension plans of PricewaterhouseCoopers member firms that are legal entities distinct from the relevant PricewaterhouseCoopers member firms, and as
such, the holdings belong to those of the individual current and retired partners and staff of the member firms rather than of the firms themselves;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the shareholdings in Philips Electronics were disposed of as soon as practicable once they came to the attention of the engagement team conducting our audit;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the percentage of equity interest in Philips Electronics held by the three individual pension plans were at all times insignificant in the context of the overall investments of the
pension funds concerned (constituting less than 1.25%, 0.12% and 0.5% of their respective overall investments, at all relevant times); and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | all final decisions related to our audit are made by Samil PricewaterhouseCoopers and not by any other member firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers, including those member firms whose
pension funds made the investments in Philips Electronics.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PricewaterhouseCoopers has discussed the facts and circumstances
of this matter with the staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including discussion of PricewaterhouseCoopers conclusion that its independence was not impaired. In February 2006, PricewaterhouseCoopers issued its Independence
Standards

Our audit committee has reviewed this matter in
detail and has discussed the matter with PricewaterhouseCoopers and our outside legal counsel. Upon careful review, the audit committee concurred with PricewaterhouseCoopers in concluding the accounting firms independence was not impaired by
the above described incidents.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

LG.Philips LCD Co., Ltd.

In our opinion, the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of income, of changes in stockholders equity and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of LG.Philips LCD Co., Ltd. and its
subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2004 and 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2005, in conformity with accounting principles,
which as described in Note 2, are generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule, Valuation and Qualifying Accounts, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set
forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Companys management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for
our opinion.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LG.Philips
LCD Co., Ltd. and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances with the consolidated subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying disclosures. The most significant estimates and assumptions relate to the allowance for uncollectable accounts
receivables, warranty accrual and deferred tax valuation allowance. Although these estimates are based on managements best knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake in the future, actual results may be different
from the estimates.

Translation of Foreign Currencies

The financial position and results of operations of the Companys subsidiary in Nanjing, China are measured using the Chinese Renminbi as its functional currency, the other overseas subsidiaries use the US
dollar, and the Korean parent company uses the Korean Won as its functional currency. The financial statements of these subsidiaries are translated to Korean Won using the current exchange rate method. All the assets and liabilities are translated
to Korean Won at the end-of-period exchange rates. Capital accounts are translated using historical exchange rates. Revenues and expenses are translated using average exchange rates. Translation adjustments arising from differences in exchange rates
from period to period are included in the cumulative translation adjustment account in other comprehensive income of stockholders equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included as a component of other income (expense).

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and
cash equivalents include all cash balances and highly liquid investments, including time deposits and short-term bonds which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and have an original maturity of three months or less.

Accounts Receivable Securitization

The Company has
an accounts receivable securitization program whereby the Company sells receivables in securitization transactions and retains a subordinated interest and servicing rights to those receivables. The Company accounts for the program under the
FASBs Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.140 (SFAS 140), Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities. The gain or loss on sales of receivables is
determined at the date of transfer based upon the relative fair value of the assets sold and the interests retained. The Company estimates fair value based on the present value of future expected cash flows using managements best estimates of
the key assumptions, including collection period and discount rates.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the aggregate estimated collectibility of its accounts receivable.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market value, with cost being determined on an average-cost
basis, except for the cost of finished products carried by certain subsidiary companies, which is determined on a moving-average cost basis.

Property,
Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using
the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives.



|                                  |  |              
|--------------------------------- |  | -------------
|Buildings                         |  | 20 ~ 40 years
|Machinery, equipment and vehicles |  | 4 ~ 8 years  
|Tools, furniture and fixtures     |  | 3 ~ 5 years  

Significant renewals and additions are capitalized at cost. Maintenance and repairs are charged to
expense as incurred.

The Company capitalizes interest on borrowings during the active construction period of major capital projects.
Capitalized interest is added to the cost of the underlying assets and is amortized over the useful lives of the assets. Total interest expense incurred amounted to (Won)91,524 million, (Won)95,553 million and (Won)154,453 million for the years
ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively, of which, approximately (Won)7,905 million, (Won)37,504 million and (Won)46,913 million, respectively, was capitalized.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets, comprising intellectual property rights (including patents and
technology related to the TFT production process and the like), privileges for an industrial water facility, and purchased software, are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the
following estimated useful lives.



|                                          |  |             
|----------------------------------------- |  | ------------
|Intellectual property rights              |  | 5 ~ 10 years
|Privilege for industrial water facilities |  | 10 years    
|Purchased software                        |  | 4 years     
|Others                                    |  | 10 years    

Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets and definite-lived intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount of the assets may not be recoverable. When the aggregate undiscounted future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized, based on the fair value of the
asset.

Stock Appreciation Plan

Effective January 1, 2005, the company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment(SFAS 123(R)). SFAS 123(R)
establishes accounting for share-based awards exchanged for employee services. Accordingly, share-based compensation cost is measured at grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite employee
service period. The option price is determinded by Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.

Accrued Severance Benefits

Employees and directors with one year or more of service are entitled to receive a lump-sum payment upon termination of their employment with the Company,
based on their length of service and rate of pay at the time of termination. Accrued severance benefits are estimated assuming all eligible employees were to terminate their employment at the balance sheet date. The annual severance benefits expense
charged to operations is calculated based on the net change in the accrued severance benefits payable at the balance sheet date, plus the actual payments made during the year.

The contributions to the national pension fund made under the National Pension Plan and the severance insurance deposit are deducted from accrued
severance benefit liabilities. Contributed amounts are refunded from the National Pension Plan and the insurance company to employees on their retirement.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues from the sale of the Companys products are recognized when : i) persuasive evidence of
an arrangement exists, ii) delivery has occurred to the customers, iii) the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable and iv) collectibility is reasonably assured.

The Company generally enters into long term formal master sales agreements with its significant customers. Under the terms of these agreements, the
Company does not offer any form of price protection or a returns policy, however, the Company provides basic limited warranties with its products.

The title transfer of the Companys product and risk of loss generally occurs on delivery and acceptance at the customers premises, at which point revenue is recognized.

Research and Development Costs

Certain costs
incurred in connection with the purchase of equipment and facilities used in the Companys research and development activities are capitalized into property, plant and equipment, to the extent that they have alternative future uses. All other
research and development costs are expensed as incurred. The Company has expensed (Won)171,387 million, (Won)255,327 million and (Won)365,437 million during the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively, for research and
development costs which are included in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses. These research and development expenses included depreciation cost of equipment and facilities used specifically for research and development
activities amounting to (Won)8,987 million, (Won)11,078 million and (Won)11,710 million for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively.

Shipping and Handling Costs

The Company includes shipping and handling costs in selling, general and administrative costs.
Shipping and handling costs for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, amounted to (Won)66,900 million, (Won)94,559 million and (Won)187,633 million, respectively.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005 amounted to (Won)1,697 million, (Won)5,524 million and (Won)21,907 million, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company recognizes
deferred tax assets and liabilities created by temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed on such temporary differences, including available net
operating loss carryforwards and tax credits, by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to the years when such differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided on deferred tax assets to the extent that it is more
likely than not that such deferred tax assets will not be realized. The total income tax provision includes current tax expenses under applicable tax regulations and the change in the balance of deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Investment tax credits are accounted for by the flow-through method whereby they reduce income taxes in the period the assets giving rise to such credits
are placed in service. To the extent such credits are not currently utilized, deferred tax assets, subject to considerations regarding the need for a valuation allowance, are recognized for the amount carried forward.

Derivative Financial Instruments

All derivative
financial instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet at their fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments are either recognized periodically in income or stockholders equity
(as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income), depending on whether the derivative financial instrument qualifies as a cash flow hedge.

At the time the Company designates a hedging relationship, it defines the method it will use to assess the hedges effectiveness in achieving offsetting changes in fair value or offsetting cash flows attributable
to the risk being hedged.

The Company formally documents all hedging relationships between the derivatives designated as hedges and hedged
items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking various hedging activities. The Company links all hedges that are designated as cash flow hedges to the specific forecasted transaction. The Company also assesses, both
at the inception of the hedge and on an on-going basis, whether the derivatives designated as hedges are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows of hedged items. When it is determined that a derivative is not highly
effective as a hedge, the Company discontinues hedge accounting.

The derivatives designated as cash flow hedges include foreign exchange
forward contracts, which are used for reducing the risk arising from the changes in anticipated cash flow from expected transactions in foreign currency.

Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and effective as cash flow hedges for forecasted transactions are initially recorded in other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings when the hedged
transaction affects earnings. Changes in the fair value of the ineffective portion are recognized in current period earnings.

The
derivatives designated for trading comprise cross-currency swap contracts and foreign exchange forward contracts. Such contracts are marked-to-market with changes in value, including premiums paid or received, recognized in other income (expense) as
foreign exchange gain (loss).

Deferred Bond Issuance Costs

Costs that are directly related to the issuance of bonds are capitalized and amortized over the term of the debt using the effective interest rate method.

Warranty Reserve

The Company records warranty liabilities for the estimated costs that may be
incurred under its basic limited warranty. This warranty covers defective products and is normally applicable for eighteen months from the date of purchase. These liabilities are accrued when product revenues are recognized. Warranty costs primarily
include raw materials and labor costs. Factors that affect the Companys warranty liability include historical and anticipated rate of warranty claims on those repairs and cost per claim to satisfy the Companys warranty obligation. As
these factors are impacted by actual experience and future expectations, the Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value
of a financial instrument is defined as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, time
deposits, trade and notes receivable, short-term borrowings, notes and accounts payable and accrued and other liabilities, approximate fair value, due to their short term maturities. The Company estimates the fair values of its long-term debt,
including the current portion, based on either the market value or the discounted amounts of future cash flows using the Companys current incremental debt rates for similar liabilities. The fair values of derivative instruments are estimated
based on market quotations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2004, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 151, Inventory Costsan amendment of ARB No. 43 (FAS No. 151), which is the result of its efforts to converge
U.S. accounting standards for inventories with International Accounting Standards. FAS No. 151 requires idle facility expenses, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage) costs to be recognized as current-period charges. It also
requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. FAS No. 151 will be effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 2005. The Company does not believe adoption of FAS No. 151 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In December 2004, the FASB issued FAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (FAS No. 123(R)). This
statement requires the use of the fair value based method of accounting for employee share- based compensation and eliminates the alternative use of the intrinsic value method prescribed by APB No. 25. With limited exceptions, FAS
No. 123(R) requires that the grant-date fair value of share-based payments to employees be expensed over the period the service is received. This statement shall be effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005, with early
adoption during the fiscal years beginning after the date this statement is issued encouraged. The Company has adopted FAS No. 123(R) and accounts for its Stock Appreciation Plan using Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.

On December 16, 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion
No. 29 (FAS No. 153). FAS No. 153 addresses the measurement of exchanges of nonmonetary assets and redefines the scope of transactions that should be measured based on the fair value of the

assets exchanged. FAS No. 153 is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges beginning in the second quarter of fiscal 2006. The Company does not believe
adoption of FAS No. 153 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In
May 2005, the FASB issued FAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Correctionsa replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3. This Statement requires retrospective application to prior
periods financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. When it is impracticable to determine the period-specific
effects of an accounting change on one or more individual prior periods presented, this Statement requires that the new accounting principle be applied to the balances of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the earliest period for which
retrospective application is practicable and that a corresponding adjustment be made to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other appropriate components of equity or net assets in the statement of financial position) for that period rather
than being reported in an income statement. When it is impracticable to determine the cumulative effect of applying a change in accounting principle to all prior periods, this Statement requires that the new accounting principle be applied as if it
were adopted prospectively from the earliest date practicable. The Company does not believe adoption of FAS No. 154 will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2006, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments(FAS No. 155), an amendment
of FAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivatives Instruments and Hedging Activities and FAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities. FAS No. 155 amends FAS No. 133 to narrow the
scope of the exception for interest-only and principal-only strips on debt instruments to include only such strips representing rights to receive a specified portion of contractual interest or principle cash flows. FAS No. 155 also amends FAS No.
140 to allow qualifying special-purpose entities to hold a passive derivative financial instrument pertaining to beneficial interests that itself is a derivative instrument. We are currently evaluating the impact of this new standard but believe
that it will not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

3. United States Dollar Amounts

|                                                   |  |              |   |  |                |  

Trade bills to overseas subsidiaries negotiated through banks but not yet matured, which were
recorded as short-term borrowings as of December 31, 2004 and 2005 amounted to approximately (Won)410,824 million (US $369,339 thousand and JP¥2,808,387 thousand) and (Won)303,904 million (US $300,004 thousand), respectively.

In September 2004, the Company entered into a five-year accounts receivable securitization program (the Program) with a financial
institution. The Program allows the Company to sell, on a revolving basis, an undivided interest in up to US $300 million in eligible accounts receivables of four subsidiaries, including LG.Philips LCD America (LPLA), LG.Philips LCD
Germany (LPLG), LG.Philips LCD Taiwan (LPLT) and LG.Philips LCD Japan (LPLJ), while retaining a subordinated interest in a portion of the receivables. The eligible receivables of LPLA and LPLG are sold without
legal recourse to third party conduits through LG. Philips LCD America Finance Corporation, a qualifying bankruptcy-remote special purpose entity, which is wholly owned by LPLA but is not consolidated for financial reporting purposes. The eligible
receivables of LPLT and LPLJ are sold without legal recourse to third party conduits through ABN AMRO Taipei Branch and ABN AMRO Tokyo Branch, respectively, which are consolidated by ABN AMRO Bank. The Company continues servicing the sold
receivables and charges the third party conduits a monthly servicing fee at market rates. Accordingly, no servicing asset or liability has been recorded.

The Program qualifies for sale treatment under SFAS 140. As of December 31, 2004 and 2005, the outstanding balance of securitized accounts receivable held by the third party conduits totaled (Won)305,203
million and (Won)272,571 million, respectively, of which the Companys subordinated retained interest was (Won)59,324 million and (Won)52,532 million, respectively. Accordingly, (Won)245,879 million and (Won)220,039 million, respectively, of
accounts receivable balances, net of applicable allowances, were removed from the consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2004 and 2005. Losses recognized on the sale of accounts receivable totaled approximately (Won)3,906 million and
(Won)8,737 million, respectively, in the year ended December 31, 2004 and 2005. This cost is primarily related to the loss on sale of receivables and discount on retained interests, net of the related servicing revenues and various program and
facility fees associated with the Program. This cost is included in the accompanying consolidated statement of income under the caption selling, general and administrative expenses.

The Company measures the fair value of its retained interests at the time of a securitization and throughout the term of the Program using a present
value model incorporating two key assumptions: (1) a weighted average life of 65 days and (2) a discount rate of 4.04 % per annum. At December 31, 2005, this retained interest is included in the accounts receivables balance
reflected in the consolidated balance sheet, at fair value of the Companys retained interest, which approximates book value due to a short average collection cycle for such accounts receivables and the Companys collection history.

6. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Derivatives for cash flow hedge

During the years
ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, 5, 13 and 301 foreign currency forward contracts were designated as cash flow hedges, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, these cash flow hedges were fully
effective and changes in the fair value of the derivatives of (Won)4,352 million, (Won)55,287 million and (Won)13,334 million, were recorded in other comprehensive income. The deferred gains of (Won)13,334 million for derivatives designated as cash
flow hedges are expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months.

Derivatives for trading

For the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004, and 2005, the Company recorded realized exchange gains of (Won)40,978 million, (Won)80,306 million and
(Won)32,189 million and realized exchange losses of (Won)16,648 million, (Won)51,597 million and (Won)78,025 million, respectively, on derivative contracts designated for trading upon settlement.

In addition, for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, the Company recorded unrealized gains of (Won)9,314 million, (Won)68,298 million
and (Won)27,359 million and unrealized losses of (Won)10,662 million, (Won)54,142 million and (Won)9,131 million respectively, relating to these derivative contracts designated for trading.

differences reverse, the outlook for the Korean economic environment, and the overall future industry outlook. Management periodically considers these
factors in reaching its conclusion, and has determined that no valuation allowance was required as of December 31, 2004 and 2005.

Under the Foreign Investment Promotion Act of Korea, from September 1999, the Company is entitled to an exemption from income taxes in proportion to the percentage of foreign equity for seven years following the registration of each foreign
equity investment, and at one-half of that percentage for the subsequent three years through 2008.

Aggregate tax benefits and tax effect
per share from tax exemption for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005 are as follows:

The statutory income tax rate, including tax surcharges, applicable to the Company was
approximately 29.7% in 2002. The statutory income tax rate was amended to 27.5% effective for fiscal years beginning January 1, 2005 in accordance with the Corporate Income Tax Law enacted in December 2003. Accordingly, deferred income taxes as
of December 31, 2004 and 2005 were calculated based on the enacted rate of 27.5%.

Taxes are calculated for each individual entity in
the group. As a result, losses incurred by subsidiaries cannot be offset against profits earned by the parent company. Taxes on the operating profit differ from the theoretical amount that would arise at the statutory tax rate of the home country of
the parent for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005 as follows:

accounting for share-based awards exchanged for employee services. SFAS No. 123(R) requires that an award that is classified as a liability to be
initially measured at its grant date fair value and remeasured at fair value at the end of each reporting period until the award is settled or expires. The measurement is based on the current stock price and other relevant factors. The difference
between the fair value amounts is recognized as compensation expense during the requisite service period, based on the percentage of the requisite service that the employee has rendered as of that date. In accordance with SFAS No. 123(R),
compensation expense is remeasured at each reporting date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the employee requisite service period.

On April 7, 2005, the Company granted 450,000 shares of stock appreciations rights (SARs) for selected management employees. Under the terms of this plan, management, on exercise, receive cash equal
to the amount that the market price of the Companys common stock exceeds the strike price ((Won)44,050) of the SARs. The vesting period is two years starting from the grant date, and exercisable period is April 8, 2008 through
April 7, 2012.

In connection with the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the company assessed its valuation technique and
related assumptions. The company estimates the fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes valuation model, consistent with the provisions of SFAS 123(R) and Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107.
Key input assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options include the grant price of the award, the expected option term, volatility of the companys stock, the risk-free rate and the companys dividend yield. Estimates of
fair value are not intended to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by selected managements who receive SARs, and subsequent events are not indicative of the reasonableness of the original estimates of fair value made by the
Company under SFAS 123(R).

15. Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share is
computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year.

Diluted earnings per share is
computed in a manner consistent with that of basic earnings per share while giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the period.

Earnings per share for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005 is calculated as follows:



|                                                      |  |       |           |      |       |           |  |       |

|Net income as reported on the income statements       |  | (Won) | 1,006,503 |      | (Won) | 1,703,687 |  | (Won) | 541,649

|1 | For the year ended December 31, 2005, issuance of 32,500 thousand shares of common stock (American Depositary Shares) in July 2005, were included in the computation of
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.
|- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Convertible bonds, which have a potentially dilutive effect by
decreasing net income allocated to common stock, were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS since they did not have a dilutive effect.

16.
Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to several legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of
business. In August 2002, the Company filed a complaint against Chunghwa Picture Tubes, Tatung Company and Tatung Co. of America, alleging patent infringement relating to liquid crystal displays and the manufacturing process for TFT-LCDs.

November 28, 2005, the Company lost its patent infringement case against Tatung Company and ViewSonic Corp. at first instance in Patent Country Court in

Company has revised its claim and has refiled the above complaint including the side mounting patent. The Companys management does not expect that the outcome in any of these legal proceedings, individually or collectively, will have any
material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

During the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, the Companys revenue from its
three largest customers accounted for 41.1%, 42.9% and 40.1% of total revenue respectively. Sales to A Company constituted 13.4%, 12.5% and 9.8% of total revenue, for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. Sales to B
Company constituted 18.1%, 16.8% and 14.5% of total revenue, for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005, respectively. The Company purchases a number of components from various sources. In some cases, alternative sources of supply are
not available. In other cases, the Company may establish a working relationship with a single source, even when multiple suppliers are available, if the Company believes it is advantageous to do so due to performance, quality, support, delivery,
capacity or price considerations. If the supply of a critical material or component were delayed or curtailed, the Companys ability to ship the related product in desired quantities and in a timely manner could be adversely affected. Even
where alternative sources of supply are available, qualification of the alternative suppliers and establishment of reliable supplies could result in delays and a possible loss of sales, which could adversely affect operating results.

The following is a summary of revenue by product for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005.
