Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 14, 2008, MagnaChip Semiconductor LLC (the “Company”) entered into a Forbearance Agreement to Credit Agreement, dated as of November 14, 2008 (the “Forbearance Agreement”), with MagnaChip Semiconductor S.A. and MagnaChip Semiconductor Finance Company, as borrowers (the “Borrowers”), the Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto, the Lenders party thereto, and UBS AG, Stamford Branch, as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “Agent”), in connection with the Credit Agreement, dated as of December 23, 2004 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”). An Event of Default exists under the Credit Agreement as a result of the Borrowers’ failure to comply with the Credit Agreement’s Minimum Consolidated EBITDA covenant for the period ended October 31, 2008 (the “Existing Default”). In addition, an Event of Default is expected to occur as a result of the Borrowers’ anticipated breach of the Credit Agreement’s Minimum Consolidated EBITDA covenant for the period ending November 30, 2008 (together with the Existing Default, the “Specified Defaults”).

Under the Forbearance Agreement, the Agent and the Lenders (collectively, the “Lender Parties”) agree to temporarily forbear from exercising certain of their default-related rights and remedies against the Company, Borrowers, and Subsidiary Guarantors with respect to the Specified Defaults during the forbearance period beginning on November 14, 2008 and ending on the earlier to occur of (i) a forbearance default under the Forbearance Agreement and (ii) December 10, 2008, during which time the Borrowers will seek to effectuate a financial restructuring. In addition, each Lender and the Issuing Bank under the Credit Agreement have agreed, under certain circumstances, to continue making credit extensions to Borrowers under the Credit Agreement notwithstanding the Specified Defaults.

The foregoing description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Forbearance Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.64 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference.
