This Amendment No. 6 (“Amendment No. 6”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement filed under cover of Schedule TO on August 24, 2015, as previously amended and supplemented (as amended and supplemented, the “Schedule TO”) by Advanced Semiconductor Engineering, Inc., a company incorporated and existing under the laws of the Republic of China (“Purchaser”). The Schedule TO relates to the offer by Purchaser to purchase up to 779,000,000 Common Shares, including those represented by ADSs, which represents approximately 24.99% of the issued and outstanding share capital of Siliconware Precision Industries Co., Ltd., a company limited by shares under the Company Law of the Republic of China (“SPIL”), through concurrent tender offers in the United States and the Republic of China and upon the terms set forth in the Amended and Restated U.S. Offer to Purchase, dated September 1, 2015, as amended on September 3, 2015 (the “U.S. Offer to Purchase”).

 

Except as otherwise set forth in this Amendment No. 6, the information set forth in the Schedule TO remains unchanged and is incorporated herein by reference to the extent relevant to the items in this Amendment No. 6. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule TO.

 

The items of the Schedule TO set forth below are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

 

Items 1 through 9, and Item 11.

 

1.The following sentences:

 

“The rights of U.S. holders to bring suits in the Republic of China in relation to the ROC Offer are more limited than in the U.S. in relation to the U.S. Offer. Therefore, U.S. holders bringing suits in the Republic of China in relation to the ROC Offer may have more difficulty protecting their interests than they would in the U.S. in relation to the U.S. Offer. It may also be difficult to effect service of process or enforce judgments obtained outside of the Republic of China upon assets or persons located in the Republic of China.”

 

are added to the U.S. Offer to Purchase in each of the following places: (a) after the third sentence of the last paragraph under the caption “What are the principal differences between the U.S. Offer and the ROC Offer?” in the “Summary Term Sheet” and (b) after the third sentence of the last paragraph under “The Offer—Section 1—Background of the U.S. Offer—the Dual Offer Structure”.

 

2.The third sentence of the first paragraph under the caption “How long do I have to decide whether to tender in the U.S. Offer?” in the “Summary Term Sheet” is deleted and replaced with the following:

 

“If the ROC Offer is extended, the U.S. Offer will, in all circumstances, be extended so that each Offer expires on the same calendar day.”

 

3.The fourth sentence of the first paragraph under “The Offer—Section 3—Acceptance for Payment and Payment” is deleted.

 

Item 12. Exhibits.

 

Item 12 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following exhibits:
