                    INTEGRATED PACKAGING ASSEMBLY CORPORATION

                     NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1.    THE COMPANY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

     Integrated Packaging Assembly Corporation (the "Company") was incorporated
in California on April 28, 1992 and reincorporated in Delaware on June 19, 1997.
The Company operates within two segments of the semiconductor industry: (1)
manufacturing and (2) distribution.

    Within manufacturing, the Company assembles and packages integrated circuits
from wafers consigned by its customers. The Company's focus is on quad flat
packages ("QFPs"), thin quad flat packages ("TQFPs"), ball grid array packages
("BGAs") and chip scale packaging ("CSPs"), which are used in complex integrated
circuits with high pin-counts in the personal computer and telecommunications
industries.

     Within distribution, the Company is the exclusive North American sales and
marketing organization for Orient Semiconductor Electronics, Ltd. ("OSE") of
Taiwan, a public Taiwanese company and the Company's controlling shareholder.
Revenues are fees received on the sales of OSE's semiconductor assembly and test
services to customers headquartered in North America. The Company entered this
segment of the market in October 1999 with the acquisition of OSE, Inc.
("OSEI").

     The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not have the information and footnotes required by
generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

     The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1999 included in the
Company's Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     The results of operations for the six month period ended July 2, 2000 are
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any
subsequent period or for the entire year ending December 31, 2000.

NOTE 3.   INCOME TAXES:

     No provision or benefit for income taxes was recorded for the six month
period ended July 2, 2000 as the Company operated at a loss.

NOTE 4.   NET LOSS PER SHARE:

     Net loss per basic and diluted share for the six month periods ended July
2, 2000 and July 4, 1999 was computed using the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the period but excluded the dilutive potential
common shares from assumed conversions because of their anti-dilutive effect.
Dilutive potential common shares also include outstanding stock options and
warrants, using the treasury stock method. At July 2, 2000, there were options
and warrants outstanding to purchase an aggregate of 12,308,678 shares of Common
Stock. At July 4, 1999 there were options and warrants outstanding to purchase
an aggregate of 3,541,000 shares of Common Stock.

NOTE 5.   SERIES A MANDATORILY REDEEMABLE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK:

     The Company issued 4,000,000 shares of Series A mandatorily redeemable
convertible preferred stock "Series A Preferred" to OSE on April 29, 1999. Each
share of Series A Preferred is convertible into 13.7487705 shares of the
Company's Common Stock at the option of the holder. On August 4, 1999, OSE
converted 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred into 13,748,771 shares of the
Company's Common Stock. The holders of shares of Series A Preferred are entitled
to dividends at the rate of $0.136 per annum per share payable semiannually on
July 1 and January 1 each year. The dividends on Series A preferred are payable
in cash, shares of Common Stock or any combination of cash and shares of Common
Stock, at the option of the holders of Series A Preferred. The shares of Series
A Preferred are mandatorily redeemable for $1.70 per share in the event of any
liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company.

NOTE 6.   RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS:

     In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"). SFAS 133 establishes a new mode for
accounting for derivatives and hedging activities. In July 1999, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 137 "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB
Statement No. 133." ("SFAS 137"). SFAS 137 deferred the effective date of SFAS
133 until the first fiscal quarter beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company
has reviewed the impact of the implementation of SFAS 133 on the consolidated
financial statements of the Company and has determined that the impact will not
be material.

     In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101 "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" (SAB
101). SAB 101 summarizes certain of the Staff's views in applying generally
accepted principles to revenue recognition in financial statements. The Company
has until the fourth quarter of 2000 to comply with the guidance in SAB 101. The
implementation of SAB 101 on the consolidated financial statements of the
Company is not expected to be material.

     In March 2000 the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued FASB
Interpretation No. 44 ("FIN 44") Accounting for Certain Transactions involving
Stock Compensation an interpretation of APB Opinion 25. FIN 44 clarifies the
application of Opinion 25 for (a) the definition of employee for purposes of
applying Opinion 25, (b) the criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies
as a noncompensatory plan, (c) the accounting consequence of various
modifications to the terms of a previously fixed stock option or award, and (d)
the accounting for an exchange of stock compensation awards in a business
combination. FIN 44 is effective July 1, 2000, but certain conclusions cover
specific events that occur after either December 15, 1998, or January 12, 2000.
The adoption of certain provisions prior to July 1, 2000 did not have a material
effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.
Management believes that the adoption of the remaining provisions of FIN 44 will
not have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of
the Company.

NOTE 7.  SEGMENTS

      The Company has two segments, manufacturing and distribution.
Manufacturing comprises the semiconductor packaging services of packages
designed for assembly using Surface Mount Technology ("SMT") in which leads on
integrated circuits are soldered to the surface of the printed circuit board.
Within the SMT market, the Company focuses on high pin-count packages, such as
Quad Flat packages ("QFP"), thin Quad Flat packages ("TQFP"), ball grid array
packages ("BGAs") and Chip Scale packaging ("CSPs"). Distribution comprises the
North American sales, marketing and technical support organization for OSE. Fees
are earned from the sales for the semiconductor assembly and test service of OSE

     This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The forward-looking statements
contained herein are subject to certain factors that could cause actual results
to differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements.
Such factors include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and
elsewhere in this Report on Form 10-Q.

OVERVIEW

 As a result of a reduction in orders from the Company's customers, the Company
has had significant excess production capacity since the first quarter of 1997.
The underutilization of capacity and resultant under absorption of fixed costs
resulted in operating losses that have continued into 2000. As a result of these
circumstances, the Company's independent accountants' opinion on the Company's
December 31, 1999 financial statements includes an explanatory paragraph
indicating that these matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern.

    In April 1999, OSE purchased 4,000,000 shares of the Company's Series A
Preferred Stock, convertible into 75% (approximately 55,000,000 shares) of the
Company's Common Stock on a fully diluted basis, for $6.8 million. On July 23,
1999, the Company entered into a $7 million bank line of credit. On July 26,
2000, the bank extended the $7 million line of credit on similar terms and
conditions through September 29, 2000. It is the Company's intent to consolidate
this line with its $11 million line of credit into a single credit line. This
line is guaranteed by OSE and was available to finance operations and working
capital needs.

    On September 29, 1999, the Company entered into an $11 million bank line of
credit. This line is guaranteed by OSE and is available to finance operations
and working capital needs through September 29, 2000. On September 29, 1999 the
Company paid off all of the secured creditors of the debt restructured on April
29, 1999.

    On October 29, 1999, the Company acquired the North American distributor of
OSE in a stock for stock exchange valued at approximately $4.7 million. In
connection with the acquisition, the Company issued 25,910,090 shares of Common
Stock. As a result of the transaction, the distributor, OSE, Inc. ("OSEI"), is
now operated as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. OSEI was a privately
held corporation that serves as the exclusive North American distributor of OSE.
OSEI derives its earnings from fees received on the sales of OSE's semiconductor
assembly and test services to customers headquartered in North America. OSEI had
revenues of $5.8 million in its 1999 fiscal year that ended June 30, 1999. The
Company has reported consolidated results with OSEI since the acquisition date.

    The Company's operating results are affected by a wide variety of factors
that have in the past and could in the future materially and adversely affect
revenues, gross profit, operating income and liquidity. These factors include
the short-term nature of its customers' commitments, timing and volume of orders
relative to the Company's production capacity, long lead times for the
manufacturing equipment required by the Company, evolutions in the life cycles
of customers' products, timing of expenditures in anticipation of future orders,
lack of a meaningful backlog, effectiveness in managing production processes,
changes in costs and availability of labor, raw materials and components, costs
to obtain materials on an expedited basis, mix of orders filled, the impact of
price competition on the Company's average selling prices, the


                                       10
<PAGE>


Company's ability to secure additional financing, and changes in economic
conditions. Unfavorable changes in any of the preceding factors have in the past
and may in the future adversely affect the Company's business, financial
condition and results of operations.

    The Company's business is substantially affected by market conditions in the
semiconductor industry, which is highly cyclical and, at various times, has been
subject to significant economic downturns and characterized by reduced product
demand, rapid erosion of average selling prices and excess production capacity.
In addition, rapid technological change, evolving industry standards, intense
competition and fluctuations in end-user demand characterize the markets for
integrated circuits. Since the Company's business is entirely dependent on the
requirements of semiconductor companies for independent packaging foundries, any
future downturn in the semiconductor industry is expected to have an adverse
effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
Furthermore, since the Company's expense levels are based in part on anticipated
future revenue levels, if revenue were to fall below anticipated levels, the
Company's operating results would be materially adversely affected.

     In recent years, the Company has experienced a decline in the average
selling prices for its services and expects that average selling prices for its
services will decline in the future, principally due to intense competitive
conditions. A decline in average selling prices of the Company's services, if
not offset by reductions in the cost of performing those services, would
decrease the Company's gross margins and materially and adversely affect the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. There can be
no assurance that the Company will be able to reduce its cost per unit.

REVENUES

     The Company recognizes revenues upon shipment of products to its customers
for the manufacturing segment. For the distribution segment, revenues are
derived from fees received on the sales of OSE's semiconductor assembly and test
services to customers headquartered in North America and revenues are recognized
on a net basis upon shipment by OSE.

     Revenues for the three and six month periods ended July 2, 2000 for the
manufacturing segment were $4.9 million and $10.3 million compared with $3.7
million and $7.4 million for the comparable periods in the prior fiscal year.
The increase in revenues is primarily due to increased orders partially offset
by a reduction in average selling prices due to changes in product mix and a
decline in unit selling prices.

     Revenues for the three and six month periods ended July 2, 2000 for the
distribution segment were $2.1 million and $3.8 million. There were no revenues
in the prior year since OSEI was not consolidated with the Company until October
29, 1999.

     A substantial portion of the Company's net revenues in each quarter result
from shipments during the last month of that quarter, and for that reason, among
others, the Company's revenues are subject to significant quarterly
fluctuations. In addition, the Company establishes its targeted expenditure
levels based on expected revenues. If anticipated orders and shipments in any
quarter do not occur when expected, expenditure levels could be
disproportionately high and the Company's operating results for that quarter
would be materially adversely affected.


                                       11

GROSS PROFIT

     Cost of revenues includes materials, labor, depreciation and overhead
costs. Gross profit for the three and six month periods ended July 2, 2000 was
$0.8 million and $1.3 million compared with gross losses of $1.9 million and
$3.6 million for the comparable periods in the prior fiscal year. Gross profit
as a percentage of revenues was 11.7% for the three month period ended July 2,
2000 compared to a negative 51.8% for the same period of 1999. Gross profit as a
percentage of revenues was 9.2% for the six month period ended July 2, 2000
compared to a negative 48.6% for the same period of 1999. This increase in gross
profit was primarily the result of profit contribution for the three and six
months periods ended July 2, 2000 by the Company's distribution segment of $2.1
million and $3.8 million, respectively, and increased revenue for the Company's
manufacturing segment offset by lower average selling prices, caused by changes
in package mix and industry competition. Low capacity utilization was partially
offset by lower labor and manufacturing overhead costs.

     Depreciation for certain of the Company's machinery and equipment acquired
prior to 1997 is calculated using the units of production method, in which
depreciation is calculated based upon the units produced in a given period
divided by the estimate of total units to be produced over its life following
commencement of use. Such estimates are reassessed periodically when facts and
circumstances suggest a revision may be necessary. In all cases, the asset will
be depreciated by the end of its estimated five or six year life, so that each
quarter the equipment is subject to certain minimum levels of depreciation.
Assets acquired beginning in 1997 are depreciated using the straight-line
method. Depreciation and amortization was $1.2 million and $2.3 million for the
three and six month periods ended July 2, 2000 compared to $1.1 million and $2.2
million for the same periods in 1999.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE

     Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of costs
associated with sales, customer service, finance, administration and management
personnel, as well as advertising, public relations, legal, and accounting
costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 88.2% to $2.0
million and 80.2% to $3.7 million for the three and six month periods ended July
2, 2000, respectively, from $1.1 million and $2.1 million for the comparable
periods of 1999. The selling, general and administrative expenses for the three
and six month periods ended July 2, 2000 includes $1.3 million and $2.3 million,
respectively, attributable to the Company's distribution segment. The $0.6
million decrease, excluding the distribution segment, for the six month period
was due primarily to decreased spending in the sales function and administration
activities.

     As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses
decreased to 29.0% in the second quarter of 2000 from 29.5 % for the second
quarter of 1999 and decreased to 26.5% for the first six months of 2000 from
27.9% for the comparable period in 1999. This decrease was primarily due to the
higher revenue level in 2000.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

     Research and development expenses consist primarily of the costs associated
with research and development personnel, the cost of related materials and
services, and the depreciation of development equipment. Research and
development expenses increased 67.3% to $0.3 million and 57.3% to $0.5 million
for the three and six month periods ended July 2, 2000, respectively, over the
comparable periods in 1999. This increase is primarily due to increased spending
for new product development.


                                       12
<PAGE>


     As a percentage of revenues, research and development expenses decreased to
4.0% in the second quarter of 2000 from 4.6% in the second quarter of 1999 and
decreased to 3.9% for the first six months of 2000 from 4.7% for the comparable
period in 1999. The decrease was primarily due to higher revenue in 2000,
partially offset by higher spending.

INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME

     Interest and other income is primarily comprised of interest earnings from
investments in cash equivalents. Interest and other income was $50,000 and
$60,000 for the three and six month periods ended July 2, 2000, respectively,
compared to $24,000 and $27,000 for the three and six month periods ended July
4, 1999. Interest income in 2000 includes $48,000 attributable to the
distribution segment.

INTEREST EXPENSE

    Interest expense consists primarily of interest payable on bank debt.
Interest expense was $0.5 million and $0.9 million for the three and six month
periods ended July 2, 2000, respectively, compared to $0.4 million and $0.9
million for the three and six month periods ended July 4, 1999. Interest expense
remained unchanged to 1999 primarily due to the replacement in 1999 of certain
secured debt with lines of credit guaranteed by OSE.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

     The Company did not record a provision for income tax for the six month
period ended July 2, 2000 as the Company operated at a loss.

EXTRAORDINARY GAIN

     In April 1999, the Company's secured creditors agreed to restructure the
Company's secured debt, including debt forgiveness. As a result, the Company
recorded an extraordinary gain of $1,487,000.

DEEMED DIVIDENDS ON PREFERRED STOCK

     During the second quarter of 1999 the Company recorded a deemed dividend on
preferred stock of $6.8 million. This is the result of the conversion price of
the convertible preferred stock issued to OSE during the quarter being less than
the market price of the common stock on the date of the transaction. All deemed
dividends related to the transaction have been recognized during the second
quarter as a result of the preferred stock being immediately convertible at the
discretion of the holder.

SEGMENT REPORTING

     The Company has two segments, manufacturing and distribution.
Manufacturing comprises the semiconductor packaging services of packages
designed for assembly using Surface Mount Technology ("SMT") in which leads on
integrated circuits are soldered to the surface of the printed circuit board.
Within the SMT market, the Company focuses on high pin-count packages, such as
Quad Flat packages ("QFP") and thin Quad Flat packages ("TQFP") "), ball grid
array packages ("BGAs") and Chip Scale packaging ("CSPs"). Distribution
comprises the North American sales, marketing and technical support organization
for OSE. Fees are earned from the sales for the semiconductor assembly and test
service of OSE to customers headquartered in North America.

</TABLE>

Prior to the fourth quarter of 1999, the Company's only operations consisted of
the manufacturing segment.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     During the six month period ended July 2, 2000, the Company's net cash used
in operations was $0.3 million. Net cash used in operations was comprised
primarily of a net loss of $3.8 million, partially offset by $2.2 million of
non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization, and an increase in the
provision for doubtful accounts receivable of $0.3 million and a net decrease in
working capital items of $1.1 million. The net decrease in working capital items
primarily reflected a $6.9 million increase in accounts payable and accounts
payable related party, which was partially offset, by a $5.6 million increase in
accounts receivable and a $0.1 million increase in accrued liabilities. As of
July 2, 2000, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $4.3 million and is
operating under bank lines obtained in July and September 1999.


                                       14
<PAGE>

     In the six month period ended July 2, 2000, investing activities used $1.8
million for capital expenditures. The Company expects to spend approximately
$2.2 million on capital expenditures during the remainder of 2000 for the
acquisition of equipment. At July 2, 2000, the Company has commitments
outstanding to purchase $0.7 million of the $2.2 million anticipated capital
expenditures during the remainder of 2000. The Company's future expenditures are
expected to be funded out of internal cash flow.

     During the six months ended July 2, 2000, $1.1 million was provided in
financing activities. This resulted primarily from proceeds from borrowings of
$1.0 million and $0.1 million from proceeds of issuance of common stock.

     The Company believes that existing cash balances together with the expected
renewal of existing finance facilities will be sufficient to meet its projected
working capital and other cash requirements at least through 2001. The Company
believes that its existing bank lines of credit of $18.0 million, which expires
in September 2000, will be re-issued because it is guaranteed by the Company's
principal stockholder, OSE. There can be no assurances, however, that the bank
lines will be renewed or that lower than expected revenues, increased expenses,
increased costs associated with the purchase or maintenance of capital
equipment, or other events will not cause the Company to seek additional
capital, or capital sooner than currently expected. There can be no assurance
that such additional financing will available when needed or, if available, will
be available on satisfactory terms.

    As a result of a reduction in orders from the Company's customers, the
Company has had significant excess production capacity since the first quarter
of 1997. The underutilization of capacity and resultant under absorption of
fixed costs resulted in operating losses that have continued into 2000. As a
result of these circumstances, the Company's independent accountants' opinion on
the Company's December 31, 1999 financial statements includes an explanatory
paragraph indicating that these matters raise substantial doubt about the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

CERTAIN FACTORS AFFECTING OPERATING RESULTS

     The Company's operating results are affected by a wide variety of factors
that could materially and adversely affect revenues, gross profit, operating
income and liquidity. These factors include the Company's ability to secure
additional financing, the short term nature of its customers' commitments, the
timing and volume of orders relative to the Company's production capacity, long
lead times for the manufacturing equipment required by the Company, evolutions
in the life cycles of customers' products, timing of expenditures in
anticipation of future orders, lack of a meaningful backlog, effectiveness in
managing productions processes, changes in costs and availability of labor, raw
materials and components, costs to obtain materials on an expedited basis, mix
of orders filled, the impact of price competition on the Company's average
selling prices and changes in economic conditions. The occurrence or
continuation of unfavorable changes in any of the proceeding factors would
adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations.

CUSTOMER CONCENTRATION

     The Company has been substantially dependent on a relatively small number
of customers within the semiconductor industry. During the second quarter of
2000, Atmel Semiconductor accounted for


                                       15
<PAGE>


approximately 41% of the Company's revenues. During the first six months of
2000, Atmel Semiconductor accounted for approximately 38% of the Company's
revenues. There can be no assurance that such customer or any other customers
will continue to place orders with the Company in the future at the same levels
as in prior periods. The loss of one or more of the Company's customers, or
reduced orders by any of its key customers, would likely adversely affect the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

UNDERUTILIZATION OF MANUFACTURING CAPACITY; HIGH FIXED COSTS

     The Company made substantial investments in expanding its manufacturing
capacity during its operating history, in anticipation of increased future
business. Since early 1997, the Company has incurred net losses as revenues
dropped substantially, with the result that there was substantial underutilized
manufacturing capacity. The Company continues to operate with significant
underutilized capacity. There can be no assurance that the Company will receive
orders from new or existing customers that will enable it to utilize such
manufacturing capacity in a timely manner. The Company's inability to generate
the additional revenues necessary to more fully utilize its capacity has had and
will continue to have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.

PRODUCT QUALITY AND RELIABILITY; PRODUCTION YIELDS

     The semiconductor packaging process is complex and product quality and
reliability are subject to a wide variety of factors. Defective packaging can
result from a number of factors, including the level of contaminants in the
manufacturing environment, human error, equipment malfunction, errors in the
design of equipment and related tooling, use of defective raw materials,
defective plating services and inadequate sample testing. From time to time, the
Company has experienced and expects to experience lower than anticipated
production yields as a result of such factors. The Company's failure to achieve
high quality production or acceptable production yields would likely result in
loss of customers, delays in shipments, increased costs, cancellation of orders
and product returns for rework, any of which could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Company believes that it has improved its production quality, however, there
can be no assurance that production quality will continue to improve in the
future.

DEPENDENCE ON RAW MATERIALS SUPPLIERS

     To maintain competitive manufacturing operations, the Company must obtain
from its suppliers, in a timely manner, sufficient quantities of acceptable
materials at expected prices. The Company sources most of its raw materials,
including critical materials such as lead frames and die attach compound, from a
limited group of suppliers. Substantially all molding compound, a critical raw
material, is obtained from a single supplier. From time to time, suppliers have
extended lead times or limited the supply of required materials to the Company
because of supplier capacity constraints and, consequently, the Company has
experienced difficulty in obtaining acceptable raw materials on a timely basis.
In addition, from time to time, the Company has rejected materials from those
suppliers that do not meet its specifications, resulting in declines in output
or yield. Any interruption in the availability of or reduction in the quality of
materials from these suppliers would materially adversely affect the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company's ability
to respond to increased orders would also be adversely affected if the Company
is not able to obtain increased supplies of key raw materials.

     The Company purchases all of its materials on a purchase order basis and
has no long-term contracts with any of its suppliers. There can be no assurance
that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient


                                       16
<PAGE>


quantities of raw materials and other supplies. The Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations would be materially adversely
affected if it were unable to obtain sufficient quantities of raw materials and
other supplies in a timely manner or if there were significant increases in the
costs of raw materials that the Company could not pass on to its customers.

COMPETITION

     The semiconductor packaging industry is highly competitive. The Company
currently faces substantial competition from established packaging foundries
located in Asia, such as Advanced Semiconductor Assembly Technology in Hong
Kong, Advanced Semiconductor Engineering, Inc. and Siliconware in Taiwan, Amkor
Technology and ChipPAC in Korea, and other subcontractors in Singapore, Taiwan,
Malaysia and Indonesia. Each of these companies has significantly greater
manufacturing capacity, financial resources, research and development
operations, marketing and other capabilities than the Company and has been
operating for a significantly longer period of time than the Company. Such
companies have also established relationships with many large semiconductor
companies which are current or potential customers of the Company. The Company
could face substantial competition from Asian packaging foundries should one or
more of such companies decide to establish foundry operations in North America.
The Company also faces competition from other independent, North American
packaging foundries. The Company also competes against companies which have
in-house packaging capabilities as current and prospective customers constantly
evaluate the Company's capabilities against the merits of in-house packaging.
Many of the Company's customers are also customers of one or more of the
Company's principal competitors. The principal elements of competition in the
semiconductor packaging market include delivery cycle times, price, product
performance, quality, production yield, responsiveness and flexibility,
reliability and the ability to design and incorporate product improvements. The
Company believes it principally competes on the basis of shorter delivery cycle
times it can offer customers due to the close proximity of its manufacturing
facility to its customers' operations and the end users of its customers'
products.

DESIGN AND ENGINEERING OF NEW PRODUCTS

     The Company believes that its competitive position depends substantially on
its ability to design new semiconductor packages in high demand and to develop
manufacturing capabilities for such products. These products include Ball Grid
Array (BGA) packages, Chip Scale Packages (CSP), and Thin Quad Flat Pack (TQFP)
packages. The Company plans to continue to make investments in the development
and design of such packages, and to develop its expertise and capacity to
manufacture such products. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to utilize such new designs or be able to utilize such manufacturing
capacity in a timely manner, that the cost of such development will not exceed
management's current estimates or that such capacity will not exceed the demand
for the Company's services. In addition, the allocation of Company resources
into such development costs will continue to increase the Company's operating
expenses and fixed costs. The Company's inability to generate the additional
revenues necessary to make use of such developments and investments would have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations.

DEPENDENCE ON A LIMITED NUMBER OF EQUIPMENT SUPPLIERS

     The semiconductor packaging business is capital intensive and requires a
substantial amount of highly automated, expensive capital equipment which is
manufactured by a limited number of suppliers, many of which are located in Asia
or Europe. The Company's operations utilize a substantial amount of this capital
equipment. Accordingly, the Company's operations are highly dependent on its
ability to obtain


                                       17
<PAGE>


high quality capital equipment from a limited number of suppliers. The Company
has no long term agreement with any such supplier and acquires such equipment on
a purchase order basis. This dependence creates substantial risks. Should any of
the Company's major suppliers be unable or unwilling to provide the Company with
high quality capital equipment in amounts necessary to meet the Company's
requirements, the Company would experience severe difficulty locating
alternative suppliers in a timely fashion and its ability to place new product
lines into volume production would be materially adversely affected. A prolonged
delay in equipment shipments by key suppliers or an inability to locate
alternative equipment suppliers would have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, financial condition and results of operations and could
result in damage to customer relationships.

DEPENDENCE UPON A SINGLE GEOGRAPHIC AREA

     The Company's current manufacturing operations are located in San Jose and
Milpitas, California. The two facilities are one and one half miles apart and
comprise the total manufacturing capability of the Company. A disruption of the
Company's manufacturing operations resulting from various factors, including
sustained process abnormalities, human error, government intervention or a
natural disaster such as fire, earthquake or flood, could cause the Company to
cease or limit its manufacturing operations and consequently would have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations.

ABILITY TO IDENTIFY, RECRUIT AND RETAIN ADDITIONAL PERSONNEL

     The Company must continue to hire and train significant numbers of
additional personnel to operate the highly complex capital equipment required by
its manufacturing operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
able to hire and properly train sufficient numbers of qualified personnel or to
effectively manage such growth and its failure to do so could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations. Furthermore, since the Company's expense levels are based in part on
anticipated future revenue levels, if revenue were to fall below anticipated
levels, the Company's operating results would be materially adversely affected.

DEPENDENCE UPON TAIWAN

     The Company may be significantly affected by the political, economic and
military conditions in Taiwan. The Company's distribution segment is a
distributor for OSE, whose operations are principally located in Taiwan. Taiwan
and the People's Republic of China (PRC) are continuously engaged in political
disputes and both countries have recently conducted military exercises in or
near the other's territorial waters and airspace. Such disputes may continue and
even escalate, resulting in economic embargo, a disruption in shipping or even
military hostilities. This could severely harm our distribution business by
interrupting or delaying production or shipment of products that we distribute.
Any kind of activity of this nature or even rumors of such activity could
severely and negatively impact the Company's operations, revenues, operating
results, and stock price.

EARTHQUAKE OR OTHER NATURAL DISASTERS

     The Company's facilities are located in California near major earthquake
faults. In addition, some of the Company's suppliers are located near earthquake
sensitive areas. In the event of a major earthquake or other natural disaster
near its facilities, the Company's operations could be harmed. Similarly, a
major earthquake or other natural disaster near the Company's suppliers, like
the ones that occurred in Taiwan in September 1999 and June 2000, could disrupt
the operations of those suppliers, which could limit the availability of
products for the Company to distribute and harm the Company's business.
