Item 1. Security and Issuer
Advanced Semiconductor Engineering, Inc. ( “ASE”) hereby amends and supplements its report on Schedule 13D, as filed on October 2, 2015 13D (the “Schedule 13D”), with respect to the Common Shares, NT$10 par value per share, (the “Common Shares”), and American depositary shares, each representing five Common Shares (“ADSs”), of Siliconware Precision Industries Co., Ltd., a company limited by shares under the Company Law of the Republic of China (“SPIL). Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 5, but not defined herein, shall have the meaning assigned to such terms in the Schedule 13D.
Except as set forth herein, the Schedule 13D is unmodified.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following information:
On October 15, 2015, the SPIL shareholders rejected SPIL’s proposals at the EGM which were designed to facilitate the Share Exchange. Consequently, ASE withdrew its suit seeking to invalidate SPIL’s August 28, 2015 board resolutions authorizing the convening of the EGM on October 15, 2015.
On October 15, 2015, SPIL issued a press release announcing that it filed a lawsuit in the Kaohsiung District Court against ASE requesting that the court invalidate the Offers and confirm that ASE does not have the right to be registered as a shareholder in SPIL’s shareholder register. ASE received SPIL’s brief and the relevant court notice documents from the Kaohsiung District Court on November 2, 2015. In its brief, SPIL’s counsel asserts that the Offers violate certain provisions of the Securities and Exchange Act of the Republic of China and certain provisions of the Fair Trade Act of the Republic of China and that because of these violations the Offers should be voided. SPIL’s October 15, 2015 press release and SPIL’s litigation brief both assert that the Offers and ASE’s subsequent opposition of the Share Exchange are attempts to directly and indirectly interfere with and control SPIL’s business operations and that the Offers were therefore a sham and violated applicable law. SPIL’s assertions come only after their shareholders rejected SPIL’s proposals, eight weeks after the announcement of the Offers, and after ASE has lawfully paid for its stake in SPIL. The Offers complied fully with all applicable law. ASE believes that this lawsuit is completely without merit, and ASE intends to defend it vigorously.
On November 2, 2015, ASE sent a letter to the chairman of SPIL, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 8.
Item 7. Material to be Filed as Exhibits
Exhibit 8: Copy of Letter to the chairman of SPIL from ASE dated November 2, 2015.
