MagnaChip Semiconductor Emerges from Chapter 11
November 9, 2009, Seoul – MagnaChip Semiconductor (“MagnaChip” or “the Company”) announced that its Second Amended Plan of Reorganization confirmed by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware on September 25, 2009 (the “Plan”), will become effective on Monday, November 9, marking MagnaChip's emergence from voluntary Chapter 11 restructuring.
The Plan was overwhelmingly supported by the Company’s creditors. Under the Plan, Avenue Capital Management II, L.P.

Sang Park, CEO of MagnaChip Semiconductor said, “I am very happy to announce that MagnaChip has overcome its difficulties and is now financially robust and ready to continue executing our growth plan.
