PERSONS ("CURRENT MAGNACHIP STOCKHOLDERS"). IF YOU HOLD MAGNACHIP COMMON STOCK FOR THE BENEFIT OF ANOTHER PERSON, PLEASE
TRANSMIT THIS DOCUMENT TO SUCH BENEFICIAL OWNER. PLEASE NOTE THAT THESE ACTIONS ARE NOT "CLASS ACTIONS" AND NO INDIVIDUAL
CURRENT MAGNACHIP STOCKHOLDER HAS THE RIGHT TO BE COMPENSATED AS A RESULT OF THIS SETTLEMENT.
PLEASE READ THIS NOTICE CAREFULLY AND IN ITS ENTIRETY. YOUR RIGHTS MAY BE AFFECTED. THIS NOTICE IS NOT AN
EXPRESSION OF ANY OPINION BY THE COURT AS TO THE MERITS OF ANY CLAIMS OR DEFENSES IN THE ABOVE-CAPTIONED LAWSUITS. THE
STATEMENTS IN THIS NOTICE ARE NOT FINDINGS OF THE COURT.
YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED that certain of the parties to the above-captioned actions (the "Actions") have entered into a
Stipulation of Settlement (the "Stipulation") setting forth terms upon which the issues raised in the Actions will be fully and
finally resolved (the "Settlement").
The Settlement will result in MagnaChip's directors' and officers' liability insurance carriers making a cash payment of
three million dollars ($3,000,000.00) into an interest-bearing escrow
account established for the purpose of satisfying the Settling Defendants' and MagnaChip's obligations. In addition, the
Settlement will result in MagnaChip implementing and/or maintaining for a period of three (3) years certain corporate governance
changes. The Settling Defendants have denied, and continue to deny, each and all of the claims and contentions alleged by
Plaintiffs in the Actions.
For a more detailed statement of the matters involved in the Action and the Settlement, the Stipulation may be inspected at
the Clerk of the Court, Superior Court of California, County of Santa Clara, 191 North First
Street, San Jose, CA 95113-1090, during regular business hours of each business day. In
addition, the Stipulation is publicly available for viewing through the Company's website at http://investors.magnachip.com.
PLEASE BE FURTHER ADVISED that pursuant to an Order of the Superior Court for the State of
California, County of Santa Clara (the "Court"), a hearing (the "Settlement Hearing")

a.m. in Department 1 of the Court, located at 191 North First Street, San Jose,
California 95113-1090, to: (i) determine whether the Settlement of the Actions on the terms and conditions provided
for in the Stipulation is fair, reasonable and adequate, and should be finally approved by the Court; (ii) determine whether
an Order and Final Judgment dismissing the Actions with prejudice should be entered pursuant to the Stipulation;
(iii) consider Plaintiffs' Counsel's application for an award of attorneys' fees and expenses ("Fee and Expense Award"); and
(iv) rule on such other matters as the Court may deem appropriate.
At the Settlement Hearing, the Court will consider whether to grant final approval to the Settlement and the Fee and Expense
Award. If any Current MagnaChip Stockholder wants to submit any papers, briefs or other documents objecting to the
Settlement, not later than fourteen (14) calendar days prior to the Settlement Hearing, you must file with the Court:
