Item 20. Indemnification of Directors and Officers and Managers.

 The Issuer

  Section 18-108 of Subchapter I of the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act
provides: Subject to standards and restrictions set forth in its limited
liability company agreement, a limited liability company may, and shall have
the power to, indemnify and hold harmless any member or manager or other
person from and against any and all claims and demands whatsoever.

  Section 4.3 of Article IV of the Limited Liability Company Operating

whatsoever against, and for all costs, losses, liabilities, damages and
expenses (including attorneys' fees) paid or accrued by, the Managers or their

provided or allowed by the laws of the State. The satisfaction of any

The Guarantors

 ASAT Holdings Limited

  Article 133 of the Restated Articles of Association of ASAT Holdings Limited
provides that every director, manager, officer and to a certain extent,
auditor, shall be indemnified out of the funds of ASAT Holdings Limited
against all liabilities incurred from defending any proceedings, whether civil
or criminal, in which judgement is given in his favor, or which he is
acquitted, or in connection with any application under the statute in which
relief from liability is granted to him by the court.

 ASAT (Cayman) Limited

  Article 123 of the Articles of Association of ASAT (Cayman) Limited provides
that every director, officer or trustee of ASAT (Cayman) Limited shall be
indemnified out of the assets of ASAT (Cayman) Limited against any costs,
charges, expenses, loss or liability incurred by him in or about the execution
of or otherwise in relation to his office except those incurred or sustained
by or through the own willful neglect or default respectively.

 ASAT Limited

  ASAT Limited is a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong. Section
165 of the Companies Ordinance of Hong Kong contains a general prohibition
against a company indemnifying its officers against any liability for
negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust, except for legal costs
incurred in defending proceedings in which judgment is given in the officer's
favor or in which the officer is acquitted or where relief is granted under
Section 358 of the Companies Ordinance. Section 358 empowers the court to
grant relief in certain circumstances to officers of a company in proceedings
for negligence, breach of duty or breach of trust against such officer.

  Article 137 of ASAT Limited's Articles of Association provides that every
director, managing director, agent, auditor, secretary and other officer shall
be indemnified out of the assets of ASAT Limited against any

                                     II-1
<PAGE>

liability incurred by him in relation to ASAT Limited in defending
proceedings, whether civil or criminal, in which judgment is given in his
favor or in which he is acquitted or in connection with an application under
Section 358 of the Companies Ordinance in which relief is granted to him by
the court.

 Timerson Limited

  Sections 165 and 358 of the Companies Ordinance of Hong Kong provide for
indemnification of directors and officers under certain circumstances. See "--
ASAT Limited" above.

  Article 144 of the Articles of Association of Timerson Limited provides
that, subject to the Companies Ordinance of Hong Kong, every director and
other officer of Timerson Limited (including an auditor) shall be indemnified
out of the assets of Timerson Limited against any costs, charges, expenses,
loss or liability incurred by him in or about the execution of or otherwise in
relation to his office.

 ASAT, Inc

  Section 317 of the California Corporations Code provides for the
indemnification of officers, directors and other corporate agents in terms
sufficiently broad to indemnify such persons, under certain circumstances, for
liabilities (including reimbursement of expense incurred) arising under the
Securities Act.

  Section 204 of the California Corporations Code allows a corporation,
subject to certain limitations, to eliminate the personal liability of a
director of a corporation to the corporation or to any of its stockholders for
monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director. Corporations
may not eliminate or limit the liability of a director for any act or omission
occurring prior to the date when the provision becomes effective and they may
not eliminate or limit the liability of an officer for any act or omission as
an officer, notwithstanding that the officer is also a director or that his or
her actions, if negligent or improper, have been ratified by the directors.
Under Section 204, corporations may not eliminate or limit the liability of
directors:


  (1) for acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing
      and culpable violation of law;

  (2) for acts or omissions that a director believes to be contrary to the
      best interests of the corporation or its shareholders or that involve
      the absence of good faith on the part of the director;


  (3) for any transaction from which a director derived an improper personal
      benefit;

  (4) for acts or omissions that show a reckless disregard for the director's
      duty to the corporation or its shareholders in circumstances in which
      the director was aware, or should have been aware, in the ordinary
      course of performing a director's duties, of a risk of serious injury
      to the corporation or its shareholders;


  (5) for acts or omissions that constitute an unexcused pattern of
      inattention that amounts to an abdication of the director's duty to the
      corporation or its shareholders;


  (6) under Section 310 concerning contacts or transactions between the
      corporation and a director, or

  (7) under Section 316 concerning directors' liability for improper
      dividends, loans and guarantees.

  Section 5.1 of ASAT, Inc.'s Articles of Incorporation provides that ASAT,
Inc. shall, to the maximum extent and in the manner permitted by the
California Corporations Code, indemnify each of its directors and officers
against costs and expenses incurred from any legal proceedings arising by
reason that such person is or was an agent of the corporation.

Item 22. Undertakings.

  The undersigned registrants hereby undertake:

  (1) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
      Act of 1933, each filing of the registrants' annual report pursuant to
      Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and,
      where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual
      report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
      1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement
      shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
      securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that
      time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

  (2) That prior to any public reoffering of the securities registered
      hereunder through use of a prospectus which is a part of this
      registration statement, by any person or party who is deemed to be an
      underwriter within the meaning of Rule 145(c), the issuer undertakes
      that such reoffering prospectus will contain the information called for
      by the applicable registration form with respect to reofferings by
      persons who may be deemed underwriters, in addition to the information
      called for by the other items of the applicable form.

  (3) That every prospectus: (i) that is filed pursuant to paragraph (2)
      immediately preceding, or (ii) that purports to meet the requirements
      of Section 10 (a)(3) of the Act and is used in connection with an
      offering of securities subject to Rule 415, will be filed as a part of
      an amendment to the registration statement and will not be used until
      such amendment is effective, and that, for purposes of determining any
      liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective
      amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating
      to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
      at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
      thereof.

  (4) To respond to requests for information that is incorporated by
      reference into the prospectus pursuant to Item 4, 10(b), 11, or 13 of
      this form, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to
      send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally
      prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed
      subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through
      the date of responding to the request.
