The rating was removed from Credit Watch, where it was placed on May 2, 2000. The outlook on the long-term rating Hyundai Semiconductor America\u2019s rating is ultimately based on the credit quality of Korea-based Hyundai Electronics Industries Co.

Ltd., the full owner of Hyundai Semiconductor America. Hyundai Investment Trust has announced various restructuring measures in recent months, and is expected to receive a capital injection of Korean Won (W) 900 billion from a consortium led by the American International Group. The restructuring measures will improve Hyundai Investment Trust\u2019s financial standing in the near term. Meanwhile, Hyundai Electronics Industries\u2019 stake in Hyundai Investment Trust will drop to less than 20% from the current 27.6% as a result of the capital injection. Hyundai Electronics Industries\u2019 exposure to potential losses from Hyundai Investment Trust is capped at a maximum of W464 billion. This includes the initial W382 billion investment in Hyundai Investment Trust, as well as the escrow arrangement Hyundai Electronics Industries placed in the form of equity investments in unlisted subsidiaries, amounting to W82 billion. Potential losses, if any, should be manageable, with minimal impact on Hyundai Electronics Industries\u2019 operational and financial standing. Standard &amp; Poor\u2019s has also taken into consideration Hyundai Electronics Industries\u2019 strong commitment not to extend any further financial support to Hyundai Investment Trust beyond one-time shares placed in escrow.
