<PAGE>   6
                noted in Item 2(a) above, Singapore Technologies is wholly owned
                by Temasek and therefore Temasek may be deemed to beneficially

                Technologies. The filing of this Statement, however, should not
                be construed as an admission that Temasek is, for purposes of

                Technologies Semiconductors. The filing of this Statement,
