Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

Tae Jong Lee was an officer during our Chapter 11 reorganization proceedings in 2009.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of its equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Officers, directors, and greater than 10% stockholders are required by SEC rules to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based solely on a review of the copies of such forms furnished to the Company, the Company believes that during 2015 all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders were in compliance with Section 16(a).

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees. We will provide a copy of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics without charge to any person upon written request made to our Secretary at MagnaChip Semiconductor Corporation, c/o MagnaChip Semiconductor, Inc., 60 South Market Street, Suite 750, San Jose, CA 95113. Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is also available on our website at www.magnachip.com. We will disclose any waivers or amendments to the provisions of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics on our website.

Assessment of Risk

Our Board believes that our compensation programs are designed such that they will not incentivize unnecessary risk-taking. The base salary component of our compensation program is a fixed amount and does not depend on performance. Our cash incentive program takes into account multiple factors, thus diversifying the risk associated with any single performance factor, and we believe it does not incentivize our executive officers to focus exclusively on short-term outcomes. Our equity awards are limited by the terms of our equity plans to a fixed maximum amount specified in the plan, and are subject to vesting to align the long-term interests of our executive officers with those of our equityholders.

Committees

The Board of Directors has four standing committees: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Risk Committee. The Board of Directors has two ad hoc committees: the Finance Committee and the Strategic Review Committee.

The Board of Directors has adopted written charters for the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Risk Committee. These charters, as well as our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and the Corporate Governance Guidelines, are posted and available on our website at www.magnachip.com.

Our Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Norby is an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act. Our Board of Directors has also determined that each of Mr. Norby, Mr. Elkins, Mr. Tanner and Mr. Tavakoli is independent as that term is defined in Section 303A of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) listing standards and Rule 10A-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

The Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee charter is posted and available on our website at www.magnachip.com. The information on or accessible through our website is not a part of or incorporated by reference in this Report. In making such determination of independence for Mr. Elkins, the Board of Directors specifically considered Mr. Elkins’ previous employment and consulting arrangement with Avenue.

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee consists of Dr. Lee, as Chair, Mr. Elkins and Mr. Norby. Our Board of Directors has determined that each of Dr. Lee, Mr. Elkins and Mr. Norby is independent under applicable NYSE listing standards.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee identifies individuals qualified to become board members, recommends director nominees, recommends board members for committee membership, develops and recommends corporate governance principles and practices, oversees the evaluation of our Board of Directors and its committees and formulates a description of the skills and attributes of desirable board members. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will also consider candidates recommended by our stockholders so long as the proper procedures are followed.

Risk Committee

Our Risk Committee consists of Mr. Tavakoli, as Chair, Mr. Norby, Mr. Klein and Dr. Lee. The Risk Committee assists the Board of Directors in its oversight of the Company’s management of key risks, as well as the guidelines, policies and processes for monitoring and mitigating such risks. The Risk Committee’s primary responsibility is to oversee and approve the implementation of Company-wide risk and crisis management best practices. Other responsibilities of the Risk Committee include providing input to management in identifying, assessing, mitigating and monitoring enterprise-wide risks the Company faces and reviewing the Company’s business practices, compliance activities and enterprise risk management and making recommendations to the Board of Directors related to such review.

Finance Committee

Our Finance Committee consists of Mr. Klein, as Chair, Mr. Elkins and Mr. Tanner. The Finance Committee was established by the Board of Directors on August 13, 2014. The Finance Committee reviews, oversees, analyzes, monitors and makes recommendations to the Board of Directors with respect to financial matters affecting the Company and its subsidiaries, including capital structure plans and strategies, corporate treasury and banking functions, working capital budgeting management, compliance with debt covenants and communications with statistical rating organizations and other credit rating agencies, capital expenditure plans and projects, financial investment plans and strategies, intercompany transfers, plans and strategies for hedging, material financing plans, tax structures and planning initiatives and annual budgeting.

Strategic Review Committee

Our Strategic Review Committee consists of Mr. Klein, as Chair, Mr. Norby, Mr. Tanner and Dr. Lee. The Strategic Review Committee was established by the Board of Directors on June 16, 2015.

The Strategic Review Committee is also responsible for making recommendations to the Board of Directors regarding potential transactions and whether any such transaction is fair to, and in the best interests of, the Company and its stockholders. In addition, the Strategic Review Committee may conduct negotiations concerning potential transactions and the terms and conditions thereof and is authorized to select and employ professional advisors in connection with its roles and responsibilities.

Board Leadership Structure

Separation of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines state that the Board of Directors shall elect its Chairman and appoint the Company’s Chief Executive Officer according to its view of what is best for the Company at any given time. The Board of Directors does not believe there should be a fixed rule as to whether the offices of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer should be vested in the same person or two different people, or whether the Chairman should be an employee of the Company or should be elected from among the non-employee directors. The needs of the Company and the individuals available to play these roles may dictate different outcomes at different times, and the Board of Directors believes that retaining flexibility in these decisions is in the best interest of the Company.

Currently, Mr. Norby serves as the Company’s Chairman of the Board of Directors and Mr. YJ Kim serves as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The Board of Directors may, however, make changes to its leadership structure in the future as it deems appropriate.

Lead Director

In the event that positions of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer are held by the same person, on an annual basis the independent members of the Board of Directors will select a lead director from the independent directors then serving on the Board of Directors (the “Lead Director”). The length of service as Lead Director is subject to the Board of Directors’s discretion, but will be a minimum of one year. The Lead Director has the authority to call meetings of the independent directors. Mr. Elkins served as Lead Director from February 2013 through May 2014, when Mr. Norby was appointed Chairman of the Board of Directors.

The duties and responsibilities of the Lead Director include: (a) presiding at meetings if requested by the Chairman or in the absence of the Chairman, including presiding at executive sessions of the Board of Directors non-employee directors and executive sessions of the independent directors of the Board of Directors; (b) working with the Chairman and management in preparing Board of Directors meeting agendas and the need for special meetings; (c) facilitating communications between the Board of Directors and management and Board of Directors members’ ability to influence Board of Directors meeting agendas; (d) advising and consult with the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman on matters related to governance and Board of Directors performance; (e) receiving, distribute to the Board of Directors and arrange responses to communications from stockholders; (f) assisting in optimizing the effectiveness of the Board of Directors and its independence from management; (g) serving as liaison between the Chairman and the independent directors; (h) meeting separately with each director at least annually; (i) evaluating the performance of the independent directors; and (j) performing such other duties as requested by the Board of Directors. The Lead Director shall be compensated for his services as determined by the Compensation Committee.

Executive Sessions of the Board of Directors

The Company’s non-management directors meet at regularly scheduled Board of Directors meetings in executive session without management present. In 2015, the Chairman presided over the meetings of the non-management directors. In addition, in accordance with the Corporate Governance Guidelines, the independent members of the Board of Directors meet at least twice a year in executive session, with the Chairman setting the agenda and presiding over such meetings.

Presiding Director

In accordance with our Corporate Governance Guidelines, the presiding director of the Board of Directors is the Chairman of the Board of Directors, if present, or in such person’s absence and if applicable, the Lead Director, or in such person’s absence, the Audit Committee Chairman, or in such person’s absence, the independent director present who has the most seniority on the Board of Directors. The presiding director presides at all meetings of the Board of Directors and is responsible for chairing the Board of Directors’ executive sessions.

Elimination of Classified Board in 2016

On July 9, 2015, the Board of Directors determined to take all necessary action to eliminate the Company’s classified board effective as of the Company’s 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2016 Annual Meeting”). Currently, the Company’s three classes of directors are elected for staggered three-year terms. Under the Board of Directors’ declassification plan, in lieu of a gradual phase-out of the classified Board of Directors, beginning with the 2016 Annual Meeting, all members of the Board of Directors (and/or nominees for election thereto) will stand for election annually, each for a one-year term. Amendments to the Company’s bylaws and other actions required to implement the declassification plan will be effected prior to the 2016 Annual Meeting and will be reported at a later date.

Item 11. Executive Compensation

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors, or the Committee, has overall responsibility for administering our compensation program for our “named executive officers.” The Committee’s responsibilities consist of evaluating, approving and monitoring our executive officer and director compensation plans, policies and programs, as well as each of our equity-based compensation plans and policies. Prior to 2010, compensation decisions were made by the entire Board of Directors and for the discussion that follows, references to the Committee during such period refer to the entire Board of Directors. For 2015, our named executive officers were:

•

Young-Joon Kim, our Chief Executive Officer;

•

Jonathan Kim, our Chief Financial Officer, Executive Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer;

•

Theodore Kim, our Chief Compliance Officer, Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary;

•

Tae Jong Lee, our Executive Vice President and General Manager, Foundry Services Group;

•

Woung Moo Lee, our Executive Vice President and General Manager, Standard Products Group; and

•

Tae Young Hwang, our former Chief Operating Officer and President.

The Committee seeks to establish total compensation for executive officers that is fair, reasonable and competitive. The Committee evaluates our compensation packages to ensure that:

•

we maintain our ability to attract and retain superior executives in critical positions;

•

our executives are incentivized and rewarded for corporate growth, achievement of long-term corporate objectives and individual performance that meets or exceeds our expectations without encouraging unnecessary risk-taking; and

•

compensation provided to critical executives remains competitive relative to the compensation paid to similarly-situated executives of companies in the semiconductor industry.

The Committee believes that the most effective executive compensation packages align executives’ interests with those of our stockholders by rewarding performance that exceeds specific annual, long-term and strategic goals that are intended to improve stockholder value. These objectives include the achievement of financial performance goals and progress on projects that our Board of Directors anticipates will lead to future growth, as discussed more fully below.

The information set forth below in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the Committee’s general philosophy and historical approach.

Role of Executive Officers in Compensation Decisions

For named executive officers other than our chief executive officer, we have historically sought and considered input from our chief executive officer in making determinations regarding executive compensation. Our chief executive officer annually reviews the performance of our other named executive officers. Our chief executive officer subsequently presents conclusions and recommendations regarding such officers, including proposed salary adjustments and incentive amounts, to the Committee. The Committee then takes this information into account when it makes final decisions regarding any adjustments or awards.

The review of performance by the Committee and our chief executive officer of other executive officers is both an objective and subjective assessment of each executive’s contribution to our performance, leadership qualities, strengths and weaknesses and the individual’s performance relative to goals set by the Committee or our chief executive officer, as applicable. The Committee and our chief executive officer do not systematically assign a weight to the factors, and may, in their discretion, consider or disregard any one factor which, in their sole discretion, is important to or irrelevant for a particular executive.

The Committee’s annual determinations regarding executive compensation are subject to the terms of the respective service agreements between us and the named executive officers (as set forth in more detail below). In addition to the annual reviews, the Committee also typically considers compensation changes upon a named executive officer’s promotion or other change in job responsibility. Neither our chief executive officer nor any of our other executives participates in deliberations relating to their own compensation.

Say on Pay Vote and Stockholder Input

The Committee also seeks to ensure that the compensation paid to the Company’s executive officers is aligned with the interests of the Company’s stockholders. In that respect, as part of its ongoing review of the compensation paid to the Company’s executive officers, the Committee considered the approval by approximately 96.8% of the votes cast for the “Say on Pay” vote relating to the compensation of our named executive officers at the Company’s 2015 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and determined that the Company’s executive compensation philosophy, compensation objectives, and compensation elements continued to be appropriate and did not make any changes to the Company’s executive pay program in response to such stockholder vote.

Role of Compensation Consultant

The Committee engages an external compensation consultant to assist it by providing information, analysis and other advice relating to our executive compensation program and the decisions resulting from its annual executive compensation review. For 2015, the Committee retained Compensia Inc. (“Compensia”), a national compensation consulting firm, to serve as its compensation advisor. This compensation consultant serves at the discretion of the Committee.

During 2015, Compensia provided the following services:

•

assisted the Committee in determining the design and amount equity awards for the key executives and Board members;

•

assisted the Committee in determining the appropriate pool of stock to grant to all employees in 2015; and

•

assisted the Committee in designing the short-term incentive plan for the key executives.

In 2015, Compensia did not provide any services to us other than the consulting services to the Committee. The Committee regularly reviews the objectivity and independence of the advice provided by its compensation consultant on executive compensation. In 2014, the Committee considered the six specific independence factors adopted by the SEC and reflected in the NYSE listing standards and determined that the work of Compensia did not raise any conflicts of interest.

Timing of Compensation Decisions

At the end of each fiscal year, our chief executive officer reviews the performance of the other executive officers and present his conclusions and recommendations to the Committee. At that time and throughout the year, the Committee also evaluates the performance of our chief executive officer, which is measured in substantial part against our consolidated financial performance. In January of the following fiscal year, the Committee then assesses the overall functioning of our compensation plans against our goals, and determines whether any changes to the allocation of compensation elements, or the structure or level of any particular compensation element, are warranted.

In connection with this process, our Committee generally establishes the elements of its performance-based cash bonus plan for the upcoming year. With respect to newly hired employees, our practice is typically to approve equity grants at the first meeting of the Committee following such employee’s hire date. We do not have any program, plan or practice to time equity award grants in coordination with the release of material non-public information. From time to time, additional equity awards may be granted to executive officers during the fiscal year.

Elements of Compensation

In making decisions regarding the pay of the named executive officers, the Committee looks to set a total compensation package for each officer that will retain high-quality talent and motivate executives to achieve the goals set by our Board of Directors. Our 2015 compensation package was composed of the following elements:

•

annual base salary;

•

long-term equity incentives;

•

a benefits package that is generally available to all of our employees; and

•

expatriate and other executive benefits.

Determination of Amount of Each Element of Compensation

General Background

The Committee seeks to establish a total cash compensation package for our named executive officers that is competitive with the compensation reflected in compensation data for similarly-situated executives in the peer group reviewed by the Committee, subject to adjustments based on each executive’s experience and performance. Historically, based on our review of industry specific survey data and the professional and market experience of our Committee members, we measured total cash compensation for our named executive officers against cash compensation paid to executives at similarly situated companies which we determined to be our select peer group. Base salaries for our named executive officers would then be benchmarked to median levels for companies in the select peer group, and adjusted upward or downward for performance. Short-term cash incentives would be put in place to provide for opportunities that may result in higher than median levels of cash compensation as compared to our select peer group if, and depending upon the extent to which, our performance and that of our named executive officers exceeded expectations and the goals established by the Committee for the year in question.

Competitive Positioning

For purposes of comparing our executive compensation against the competitive market, the Committee reviews and considers the compensation levels and practices of a group of comparable technology companies. The companies in this compensation peer group were selected on the basis of their similarity to us in size, industry focus and geographic location.

In October 2014, with the assistance of Compensia, the Committee developed our compensation peer group based on U.S.-based semiconductor companies. We focused on U.S.-based semiconductor companies because our highest ranking executives are U.S. expatriates who have opportunities to work with U.S.-based semiconductor companies. The companies in this compensation peer group were selected on the basis of their similarity to us, based on the following criteria:

•

industry—semiconductors;

•

similar revenue size—~0.5x to ~2.0x our last four fiscal quarter revenue of approximately $856 million (approximately $428 million to approximately $1.7 billion);

•

executive positions similar in breadth, complexity and/or scope of responsibility; and

•

competitors for executive talent.

The Committee approved the use of the market data from this peer group for our December 2014 executive compensation market assessment, which was used for setting executive compensation in 2015:

Cirrus Logic

Cypress Semiconductor

Diodes

Fairchild Semiconductor

Integrated Device Tech

International Rectifier

Intersil

Microsemi

OmniVision Technologies

PMC-Sierra

RF Micro Devices

Semtech

Silicon Laboratories

Spansion

SunEdison Semiconductor

TriQuint Semiconductor

To analyze the compensation practices of the companies in our compensation peer group, Compensia gathered data from public filings (primarily proxy statements) and from the Radford Global Technology Survey as of July 2014 for companies with annual revenues between $500 million and $1 billion, with median revenues of $739 million. This market data was then used as a reference point for the Committee to assess our current compensation levels in the course of its deliberations on compensation forms and amounts.

The Committee reviews our compensation peer group periodically prior to assessing executive compensation and makes adjustments to its composition, taking into account changes in both our business and the businesses of the companies in the peer group.

The Committee historically makes annual determinations regarding cash incentive compensation based on our annual operating plan, which we adopt in the December preceding each fiscal year. The determination takes into account our expected performance in the coming fiscal year. The Committee makes all equity compensation decisions for our officers based on existing compensation arrangements for other executives at our Company with the same level of responsibility and based on a review of our select peer group with a view to maintaining internal consistency and parity.

Equity awards are not tied to base salary or cash incentive amounts and will constitute lesser or greater proportions of total compensation depending on the fair value of the awards. The Committee, relying on the professional and market experience of our Committee members, generally seeks to set equity awards at median levels of equity compensation at our select peer group companies.

The Committee does not apply a formula or assign relative weight in making its determination. Instead, it makes a subjective determination after considering all information collectively.

The Committee may approve additional cash incentive payments or equity compensation grants from time to time during the year in its discretion.

Base Salary

Base salary is the guaranteed element of an employee’s annual cash compensation. Changes in base salary may be approved by the Committee for an executive if the median levels of base salary compensation for similarly-situated executives in our select peer group have changed, and may be further adjusted based upon the employee’s long-term performance, skill set and the value of that skill. The Committee evaluates the performance of each named executive officer on an annual basis based on the accomplishment of performance objectives that were established at the beginning of the prior fiscal year as well as its own subjective evaluation of the officer’s performance. In making its evaluation, the Committee makes a subjective qualitative assessment of the officer’s contribution to our performance during the preceding year, including leadership, success in attaining particular goals of a division for which that officer has responsibility, our overall financial performance and such other criteria as the Committee may deem relevant, including input from our chief executive officer. The Committee then makes a subjective decision regarding any changes in base salary based on these factors and the data from our select peer group. The Committee does not systematically assign weights to any of the factors it considers, and may, in its discretion, ignore any factors or deem any one factor to have greater importance for a particular executive officer. Base salary adjustments generally take effect in the middle of our fiscal year. The Committee increased base salaries for three of our named executive officers, Mr. YJ Kim, Mr. J. Kim and Mr. T. Kim, for the 2015 fiscal year.

Cash Incentives

Short-term cash incentives have historically comprised a significant portion of the total target compensation package and are designed to reward executives for their contributions to meeting and exceeding our goals and to recognize and reward our executives in achieving these goals. Incentives are typically designed as a percentage of base salary and are awarded based on individual performance and our achievement of the annual, long-term and strategic quantitative goals set by our Committee.

In December 2009, our Board of Directors implemented a cash incentive plan effective as of January 1, 2010, which we call the Profit Sharing Plan. Each of our employees is eligible to participate in the Profit Sharing Plan, and our Board of Directors intends for the Profit Sharing Plan to incentivize our named executive officers, officers and employees to exceed expectations throughout our entire fiscal year. The Committee administers the Profit Sharing Plan.

Under the Profit Sharing Plan, the Committee reviews our business plan in December of each year and determines an annual consolidated Adjusted EBITDA target, or the Base Target, for the upcoming fiscal year and sets the targeted amount to be awarded to our named executive officers and employees, or the Profit Share, for meeting the Base Target and for achievement in excess of the Base Target.

For our 2015 fiscal year, the Committee determined that it is in the best interest of the Company to increase the target annual performance bonus percentages for three of our named executive officers, Mr. YJ Kim, Mr. J. Kim and Mr. T. Kim.

Equity Compensation

In addition to our historical use of cash incentives, we offer equity incentives as a way to enhance the link between the creation of stockholder value and executive incentive compensation and to give our executives appropriate motivation and rewards for achieving increases in enterprise value. Under our 2009 Common Unit Plan, our Board of Directors previously granted options to acquire MagnaChip Semiconductor LLC common units and restricted unit bonus awards. Awards under our 2009 Common Unit Plan were converted into options for common stock and restricted common stock of MagnaChip Semiconductor Corporation upon our corporate conversion. Such options vest in installments over three years following grant, with approximately one-third of the restricted unit awards vested at grant and the remainder vesting in two subsequent annual installments, as set forth in more detail below.

Under our 2011 Equity Incentive Plan, which replaced the 2009 Common Unit Plan immediately following our corporate conversion, the Committee may grant participants stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and units, and other stock-based and cash-based awards. Stock options granted under the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan prior to 2015 generally vest over three years following grant, with thirty-four percent of the common stock vesting and becoming exercisable on the first anniversary of grant date and eight or nine percent of the common stock subject to the options vesting on completion of each three-month period thereafter. Stock options granted in 2015 generally vest fifty percent on the date of grant, with the remaining fifty percent vesting and becoming exercisable in three equal annual installments on the first three anniversaries of the grant date. Restricted stock units (“RSUs”) granted under the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan generally vest fifty percent on the date of grant, with the remaining fifty percent vesting in three equal annual installments on the first three anniversaries of the grant date. Settlement of vested RSUs generally occurs as soon as practicable following the vesting date. In granting equity awards, the Committee may establish

any conditions or restrictions it deems appropriate. Stock options and stock appreciation rights must have exercise prices at least equal to the fair market value of the stock at the time of their grant pursuant to the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan. The fair market value of the stock at the time of grant will generally be the closing price of a share of stock as quoted on the national or regional securities exchange or quotation system constituting the primary market for the stock on the date any grant is made. Prior to the exercise of a stock option or stock appreciation or settlement of an award denominated in units, the holder has no rights as a stockholder with respect to the stock subject to the award, including voting rights and the right to receive dividends. Participants receiving restricted stock awards are stockholders and have both voting rights and the right to receive dividends, except that dividends paid on unvested shares may remain subject to forfeiture until vested. Award vesting ceases upon termination of employment, and vested options and stock appreciation rights remain exercisable only for a limited period following such termination.

The Committee considers granting additional equity compensation in the event of new employment, a promotion or change in job responsibility or a change in median levels of equity compensation for similarly-situated executives at companies in our select peer group or in its discretion to reward or incentivize individual officers. The equity award levels vary among participants based on their job grade and position. The Committee generally seeks to award equity compensation at levels consistent with the median levels for executives at companies in our select peer group, and will also make subjective determinations regarding adjustments to award amounts in light of factors such as the available pool, individual performance and role of executives. For example, the Committee may adjust the size of an award for an individual executive above the equity award level for his or her position if the Committee determines that the executive has provided exceptional performance, or may increase the equity award level for a position above the median level reflected in the select peer group if the position is considered by the Committee to be more critical to our long-term success. The Committee will generally maintain substantially equivalent award levels for executives at equivalent job grades. Equity awards are not tied to base salary or cash incentive amounts.

As a result of our 2009 reorganization proceedings, all previously outstanding common and preferred units and options held by our named executive officers were cancelled. In December 2009, we granted new options to our executives with the option award amounts generally determined based upon the median levels of our select peer group. Thirty-four percent of the common units subject to the options vested and became exercisable on the first anniversary of grant date, with eight or nine percent of the common units subject to the options vesting on completion of each three-month period thereafter. In January 2012, because the options granted in December 2009 would vest by the end of that year, the Committee granted additional options to all of our named executive officers, other than Mr. YJ Kim, who joined the Company in April 2013, Mr. J. Kim, who joined the Company in March 2014, and Mr. T. Kim, who joined the Company in October 2013. In 2014, Mr. J. Kim received grants of options to purchase an aggregate of 50,000 shares arising out of the commencement of his employment with the Company. In 2015, the Committee granted options and RSUs to all of our named executive officers, other than Mr. Hwang, who resigned his positions with the Company effective as of April 30, 2015.

Upon the recommendation of our Board of Directors or chief executive officer, or otherwise, the Committee may in the future consider granting additional performance-based equity incentives.

Perquisites and Other Benefits

We provide the named executive officers with perquisites and other benefits, including expatriate benefits, that the Committee believes are reasonable and consistent with our overall compensation program to better enable us to attract and retain superior employees for key positions. Generally, perquisites are determined based upon what the Committee considers to be the most customary perquisites offered by our select peer group and are not based upon a median cost for specific perquisites or for the perquisites in aggregate. The Committee determines the level and types of expatriate benefits for the executive officers based on local market surveys taken by our human resources group. These surveys are not limited to our select peer group, but include a broad range of non-Korea based companies with significant operations in Korea. Attributed costs of the personal benefits for the named executive officers are as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table below.

Mr. YJ Kim, Mr. J. Kim and Mr. T. Kim were expatriates during 2015 and 2014. Mr. YJ Kim and Mr. T. Kim were also expatriates during 2013. Mr. YJ Kim, Mr. J. Kim and Mr. T. Kim received expatriate benefits commensurate with market practice in Korea. These benefits, which were determined on an individual basis, included housing allowances, relocation and repatriation allowances, insurance premiums, reimbursement for the use of a car, home leave flights, living expenses, children’s tuition allowances, tax equalization payments and tax advisory services, each as we deemed appropriate.

In addition, pursuant to the Employee Retirement Benefit Security Act, certain executive officers resident in Korea with one or more years of service are entitled to severance benefits upon the termination of their employment for any reason. For purposes of this section, we call this benefit “statutory severance.” The base statutory severance is approximately one month of base salary per year of service. Mr. YJ Kim, Mr. J. Kim, Mr. T. Kim, Mr. TJ Lee, Mr. WM Lee and Mr. Hwang accrued statutory severance in 2015.

Certain Tax Considerations

We consider tax implications when we design our equity-based and cash compensation programs and when we make awards or grants. In particular, Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code generally disallows a tax deduction to public companies for compensation over $1,000,000 paid to “covered employees” (which are defined as our named executive officers, other than the chief

financial officer). However, qualifying performance-based compensation is not subject to the deduction limit if certain requirements are met. Although deductibility is a factor that the Committee takes into account in determining awards of cash bonuses and equity grant, the Committee may award compensation that is not deductible under Section 162(m) when, in the exercise of the Committee’s judgment, it would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to do so.

MagnaChip Semiconductor LLC 2009 Common Unit Plan

Following our emergence from our reorganization proceedings, in December 2009, our Board of Directors adopted, and our equityholders approved, the MagnaChip Semiconductor LLC 2009 Common Unit Plan, which we refer to as the 2009 Plan. The 2009 Plan provided for the grant of nonstatutory options, restricted unit bonus and purchase right awards, and deferred unit awards to employees and consultants of our Company and our subsidiaries and to members of our Board of Directors. However, only options and restricted unit bonus awards were granted under the 2009 Plan. Subject to adjustment in the event of certain changes in capital structure, the maximum aggregate number of MagnaChip Semiconductor LLC common units available for grant under the 2009 Plan was 30,000,000. Units subject to awards that expired, were forfeited or otherwise terminated would have been available again for grant under the 2009 Plan.

In connection with our corporate conversion, MagnaChip Semiconductor Corporation assumed the rights and obligations of MagnaChip Semiconductor LLC under the 2009 Plan and converted MagnaChip Semiconductor LLC common unit options and restricted common units outstanding under the 2009 Plan into options to acquire a number of shares of our common stock and shares of restricted common stock at a ratio of eight-for-one on substantially equivalent terms and conditions. As of December 31, 2015, there were outstanding under the 2009 Plan options to purchase 852,449 shares of common stock, at a weighted average exercise price of $6.22 per share. The 2009 Plan terminated immediately following our corporate conversion, and no additional options or other equity awards may be granted under the 2009 Plan. However, options granted under the 2009 Plan prior to its termination will remain outstanding until they are either exercised or expire.

The 2009 Plan is administered by the Committee. Subject to the provisions of the 2009 Plan, the Committee determined in its discretion the persons to whom and the times at which awards were granted, the sizes of such awards, and all of their terms and conditions. All awards were evidenced by a written agreement between us and the holder of the award. The Committee has the authority to construe and interpret the terms of the 2009 Plan and awards granted under it.

In the event of a change in control of our Company, the vesting of all outstanding awards held by participants whose employment has not previously terminated will accelerate in full. In addition, the Committee has the authority to require that outstanding awards be assumed or replaced with substantially equivalent awards by a successor corporation or to cancel the outstanding awards in exchange for a payment in cash or other property equal to the fair market value of restricted units or the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the units subject to an option over the exercise price per unit of such option.

2011 Equity Incentive Plan

Our 2011 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2011 Plan, was approved by our Board of Directors and our stockholders in March 2010. We amended and restated the 2011 Plan in February 2011, and our stockholders approved the amendment in March 2011 to reflect that it became effective in 2011 upon our corporate conversion. 891,703 shares of our common stock, or the total number of shares of common stock (as adjusted by the conversion ratio in the corporate conversion) that remained available for grant upon the termination of the 2009 Plan immediately following the corporate conversion, were initially authorized and reserved.

As of December 31, 2015, there were outstanding under the 2011 Plan options to purchase 2,327,450 shares of common stock, at a weighted average exercise price of $10.85 per share. As of December 31, 2015, 894,790 shares of our common stock remained available for issuance under the 2011 Plan. This reserve automatically increased on January 1, 2014, January 1, 2015 and January 1, 2016 by an additional 680,967, 681,129 and 691,378 shares, respectively, and will automatically increase each subsequent anniversary through 2021, by an amount equal to the smaller of 2% of the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31 or an amount determined by our Board of Directors. The number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2011 Plan will also be increased from time to time by up to that number of shares of common stock remaining subject to options and restricted stock awards outstanding under the 2009 Plan at the time of its termination immediately following the corporate conversion that expire or terminate or are forfeited for any reason after the effective date of the 2011 Plan, subject to a cap of 1,412,352 shares. Appropriate adjustments will be made in the number of authorized shares and other numerical limits in the 2011 Plan and in outstanding awards to prevent dilution or enlargement of participants’ rights in the event of a stock split or other change in our capital structure. Shares subject to awards granted under our 2011 Plan which expire, are repurchased, or are cancelled or forfeited will again become available for issuance under the 2011 Plan. The shares available will not be reduced by awards settled in cash. Shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations will not again become available for grant. The gross number of shares issued upon the exercise of stock appreciation rights or options exercised by means of a net exercise or by tender of previously owned shares will be deducted from the shares available under the 2011 Plan.

Awards may be granted under the 2011 Plan to our employees, including officers, directors, or consultants or those of any present or future parent or subsidiary corporation or other affiliated entity. While we may grant incentive stock options only to employees, we may grant nonstatutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock purchase rights or bonuses, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units and cash-based awards or other stock-based awards to any eligible participant.

The 2011 Plan is administered by the Committee. Subject to the provisions of the 2011 Plan, the Committee determines in its discretion the persons to whom and the times at which awards are granted, the sizes of such awards, and all of their terms and conditions. All awards are evidenced by a written agreement between us and the holder of the award. The Committee has the authority to construe and interpret the terms of the 2011 Plan and awards granted under it.

In the event of a change in control as described in the 2011 Plan, the acquiring or successor entity may assume or continue all or any awards outstanding under the 2011 Plan or substitute substantially equivalent awards. Any awards which are not assumed or continued in connection with a change in control or are not exercised or settled prior to the change in control will terminate effective as of the time of the change in control. The Committee may provide for the acceleration of vesting of any or all outstanding awards upon such terms and to such extent as it determines, except that the vesting of all awards held by members of our Board of Directors who are not employees will automatically be accelerated in full. The 2011 Plan also authorizes the Committee, in its discretion and without the consent of any participant, to cancel each or any outstanding award denominated in shares upon a change in control in exchange for a payment to the participant with respect to each share subject to the cancelled award of an amount equal to the excess of the consideration to be paid per share of common stock in the change in control transaction over the exercise price per share, if any, under the award.

The Board has delegated to a special equity committee composed of our chief executive officer the authority to grant and administer RSU awards covering up to a total of 312,000 shares to up to 1,100 nonunion employees of the Company (other than executive officers), with a maximum grant size of 1,000 shares per employee. Such RSUs will become vested and settled upon the first to occur of (i) April 1, 2017 or (ii) the date of the consummation of a change in control.

2011 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Our 2011 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, or the Purchase Plan, was approved by our Board of Directors in March 2010. Our Board of Directors amended and restated the Purchase Plan in February 2011 to reflect that the Purchase Plan would become effective in 2011 upon the commencement of the MagnaChip IPO. The Purchase Plan was approved by our stockholders in March 2011 and became effective upon the commencement of the MagnaChip IPO. We initially authorized and reserved 789,890 shares for sale under the Purchase Plan. In August, 2012, the Committee suspended the Purchase Plan.

As of December 31, 2015, 1,163,880 shares of our common stock remained reserved for sale under the Purchase Plan. In addition, the Purchase Plan provides for an automatic annual increase in the number of shares available for issuance under the plan on January 1 of each year beginning in 2012 and continuing through and including January 1, 2021 equal to the lesser of (i) 1% of our then issued and outstanding shares of common stock on the immediately preceding December 31, (ii) 789,980 shares, or (iii) a number of shares as our Board of Directors may determine. Appropriate adjustments will be made in the number of authorized shares and in outstanding purchase rights to prevent dilution or enlargement of participants’ rights in the event of a stock split or other change in our capital structure. Shares subject to purchase rights which expire or are canceled will again become available for issuance under the Purchase Plan. Because the Purchase Plan was suspended in August 2012, no annual increase in the number of shares authorized under such plan occurred on January 1, 2013 or in subsequent years.

Our employees and employees of any parent or subsidiary corporation designated by the Committee are eligible to participate in the Purchase Plan if they are customarily employed by us for more than 20 hours per week and more than five months in any calendar year. However, an employee may not be granted a right to purchase stock under the Purchase Plan if: (i) the employee immediately after such grant would own stock possessing 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of our capital stock or of any parent or subsidiary corporation, or (ii) the employee’s rights to purchase stock under all of our employee stock purchase plans would accrue at a rate that exceeds $25,000 in value for each calendar year of participation in such plans.

The Purchase Plan is implemented through a series of sequential offering periods, generally three months in duration beginning on the first trading days of February, May, August, and November each year. The Committee is authorized to establish additional or alternative concurrent, sequential or overlapping offering periods and offering periods having a different duration or different starting or ending dates, provided that no offering period may have a duration exceeding 27 months.

Amounts accumulated for each participant, generally through payroll deductions, are credited toward the purchase of shares of our common stock at the end of each offering period at a price generally equal to 95% of the fair market value of our common stock on the purchase date. Prior to commencement of an offering period, the Committee is authorized to change the purchase price discount for that offering period, but the purchase price may not be less than 85% of the lower of the fair market value of our common stock at the beginning of the offering period or on the purchase date.

No participant may purchase under the Purchase Plan in any calendar year shares having a value of more than $25,000 measured by the fair market value per share of our common stock on the first day of the applicable offering period. Prior to the beginning of any offering period, the Committee may alter the maximum number of shares that may be purchased by any participant during the offering period or specify a maximum aggregate number of shares that may be purchased by all participants in the offering period. If insufficient shares remain available under the plan to permit all participants to purchase the number of shares to which they would otherwise be entitled, the Committee will make a pro rata allocation of the available shares. Any amounts withheld from participants’ compensation in excess of the amounts used to purchase shares will be refunded, without interest.

In the event of a change in control, an acquiring or successor corporation may assume our rights and obligations under the Purchase Plan. If the acquiring or successor corporation does not assume such rights and obligations, then the purchase date of the offering periods then in progress will be accelerated to a date prior to the change in control as specified by the Committee, but the number of shares subject to outstanding purchase rights shall not be adjusted.

Agreements with Executives and Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control

We are obligated to make certain payments to our named executive officers upon termination or a change in control as further described below. The terms “cause” and “good reason” used below have the meanings given to them in the applicable agreements with us.

Young-Joon Kim. We entered into an Offer Letter with Mr. YJ Kim, dated as of April 15, 2013, pursuant to which Mr. YJ Kim is entitled to an initial annual base salary of $350,000 per year (subject to adjustment by our Board of Directors), a one-time signing bonus and relocation allowance of $100,000, and an annual incentive bonus target of 80% of his annual base salary based on company performance and attainment of management objectives under a plan established and approved by the Board of Directors. Mr. YJ Kim is also entitled to customary employee benefits and expatriate benefits. Pursuant to his Offer Letter, on May 6, 2013, Mr. YJ Kim received an initial grant of an option to purchase an aggregate of 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $15.96, which vests and becomes exercisable over three years from the date of commencement of Mr. YJ Kim’s employment with MagnaChip Korea. We entered into a Severance Agreement with Mr. YJ Kim, dated as of November 3, 2015, which supersedes the severance provisions in Mr. YJ Kim’s Offer Letter. Under the Severance Agreement, if Mr. YJ Kim’s employment is terminated by us without cause or by him with good reason, in addition to accrued but unpaid salary, vested non-severance benefits under other Company benefit plans and statutory severance under Korean law, Mr. YJ Kim will be entitled to receive (i) an amount equal to two times his then current base salary, payable during the 12 month period following termination of employment, (ii) an amount equal to his then current base salary, payable in a single cash lump sum following termination of employment, (iii) for 12 months following termination of employment, payment of any portion of health benefit premiums that are in excess of the amount he would have paid if he had remained employed during such period, (iv) continued provision of expatriate benefits for 12 months following termination of employment, (v) continued reasonable use of our corporate club membership for 12 months following termination of employment, (vi) a repatriation allowance and repatriation expenses in accordance with our expatriate benefit policy, and (vii) immediate vesting of all outstanding and unvested equity awards (including, without limitation, stock options and RSUs) upon termination of employment, with any stock options remaining outstanding and exercisable for two years following such termination (or the expiration of the option, if earlier). If such termination of employment by us without cause or by Mr. YJ Kim with good reason occurs within three months prior or 18 months following a change in control, in addition to the benefits described in the preceding sentence, Mr. YJ Kim will also be entitled to receive (i) an amount equal to his then current base salary, payable in a single cash lump sum following termination of employment, and (ii) an additional 6 months of payments of health benefit premiums as described in part (iii) of the preceding sentence. The Severance Agreement also provides that, in the event of a change in control, all outstanding and unvested equity awards (including, without limitation, stock options and RSUs) held by Mr. YJ Kim will become immediately vested and, in the case of options, exercisable, as of immediately prior to such change in control. The definition of change in control under the Severance Agreement is the same as under our 2011 Equity Incentive Plan, except that a sale of assets representing at least 65% of our consolidated annual revenue or assets, or a sale of either of our Standard Products Group or foundry business lines, is a change in control for purposes of the Severance Agreement but not the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan. As a condition to the receipt of payments and benefits under the severance agreement, Mr. YJ Kim must comply with the terms of certain restrictive covenants, including a two year post-termination non-competition covenant and perpetual non-disclosure and employee non-solicitation covenants.

Jonathan Kim. We entered into an Offer Letter with Mr. J. Kim, dated as of March 8, 2014, pursuant to which Mr. J. Kim will be paid an initial base salary of $280,000 per year (subject to adjustment by our Board of Directors), a sign on bonus of $50,000, a one-time relocation payment of $50,000 and an annual incentive bonus based on company performance and attainment of management objectives under a plan to be established and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. Mr. J. Kim is entitled to customary employee benefits and expatriate benefits. Pursuant to his Offer Letter, Mr. J. Kim will receive an initial grant of an option to purchase an aggregate of 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, which will be granted in four equal tranches during the nine-month period beginning on the commencement of his employment with MagnaChip Korea. The option grants will become vested and exercisable over three years from the date of commencement of Mr. J. Kim’s employment with MagnaChip Korea. We entered into a Severance Agreement with Mr. J. Kim, dated as of November 3, 2015, which supersedes the severance provisions in Mr. J. Kim’s Offer Letter. Under the Severance Agreement, if Mr. J. Kim’s employment is terminated by us without cause or by him with good reason, in addition to accrued but unpaid salary, vested non-severance benefits under other Company benefit plans and statutory severance under Korean law, Mr. J. Kim will be entitled to receive (i) an amount equal to his then current base salary, payable during the 12 month period following termination of employment, (ii) an amount equal to his then current base salary, payable in a single cash lump sum following termination of employment, (iii) for 12 months following termination of employment, payment of any portion of health benefit premiums that are in excess of the amount he would have paid if he had remained employed during such period, (iv) continued provision of expatriate benefits for 12 months following termination of employment, (v) a repatriation allowance and repatriation expenses in accordance with our expatriate benefit policy, and (vi) immediate vesting of all outstanding and unvested equity awards (including, without limitation, stock options and RSUs) upon termination of employment, with any stock options remaining outstanding and exercisable for two years following such termination (or the expiration of the option, if earlier). If such termination of employment by us without cause or by Mr. J. Kim with good reason occurs within three months prior or 18 months following a change in control, in addition to the benefits described in the preceding sentence, Mr. J. Kim will also be entitled to receive (i) an amount equal to his then current base salary, payable in a single cash lump sum following termination of employment, and (ii) an additional 6 months of payments of health benefit premiums as described in part (iii) of the preceding sentence. The Severance Agreement also provides that, in the event of a change in control, all outstanding and unvested equity awards (including, without limitation, stock options and RSUs) held by Mr. J. Kim will become immediately vested and, in the case of options, exercisable, as of immediately prior to such change in control. The definition of change in control under the Severance Agreement is the same as under our 2011 Equity Incentive Plan, except that a sale of assets representing at least 65% of our consolidated annual revenue or assets, or a sale of either of our Standard Products Group or foundry business lines, is a change in control for purposes of the Severance Agreement but not the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan. As a condition to the receipt of payments and benefits under the severance agreement, Mr. J. Kim must comply with the terms of certain restrictive covenants, including a two year post-termination non-competition covenant and perpetual non-disclosure and employee non-solicitation covenants.

Theodore Kim. We entered into an Offer Letter with Mr. T. Kim, dated as of September 27, 2013, pursuant to which Mr. T. Kim will be paid an initial base salary of $280,000 per year (subject to adjustment by our Board of Directors), and an annual incentive bonus of up to 30% of his base salary based on company performance and attainment of management objectives under a plan to be established and approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. Mr. T. Kim is entitled to customary employee benefits and expatriate benefits. Pursuant to his Offer Letter, Mr. T.

Kim, dated as of November 3, 2015, which supersedes the severance provisions in Mr. T. Kim’s Offer Letter. Under the Severance Agreement, if Mr. T. Kim’s employment is terminated by us without cause or by him with good reason, in addition to accrued but unpaid salary, vested non-severance benefits under other Company benefit plans and statutory severance under Korean law, Mr. T. Kim will be entitled to receive (i) an amount equal to his then current base salary, payable during the 12 month period following termination of employment, (ii) an amount equal to his then current base salary, payable in a single cash lump sum following termination of employment, (iii) for 12 months following termination of employment, payment of any portion of health benefit premiums that are in excess of the amount he would have paid if he had remained employed during such period, (iv) continued provision of expatriate benefits for 12 months following termination of employment, (v) a repatriation allowance and repatriation expenses in accordance with our expatriate benefit policy, and (vi) immediate vesting of all outstanding and unvested equity awards (including, without limitation, stock options and RSUs) upon termination of employment, with any stock options remaining outstanding and exercisable for two years following such termination (or the expiration of the option, if earlier). If such termination of employment by us without cause or by Mr. T.

We entered into a Severance Agreement with Mr. TJ Lee, dated as of November 3, 2015, which supersedes the severance provisions in Mr. TJ Lee’s Offer Letter. Under the Severance Agreement, if Mr. TJ Lee’s employment is terminated by us without cause or by him with good reason, in addition to accrued but unpaid salary, vested non-severance benefits under other Company benefit plans and statutory severance under Korean law, Mr. TJ Lee will be entitled to receive (i) an amount equal to his then current base salary, payable during the 12 month period following termination of employment, (ii) continued housing payments for 12 months following termination of employment and (iii) immediate vesting of all outstanding and unvested equity awards (including, without limitation, stock options and RSUs) upon termination of employment, with any stock options remaining outstanding and exercisable for two years following such termination (or the expiration of the option, if earlier).

Mr. WM Lee is entitled to customary employee benefits.

Tae Young Hwang. We entered into an Entrustment Agreement with Mr. Hwang, effective as of October 1, 2004, under which he served as our Chief Operating Officer and President, with an initial base salary of 220 million Korean won per year and with a target annual incentive bonus to be determined by management based on performance. Mr. Hwang was entitled to customary employee benefits. The agreement also contains customary non-competition covenants lasting one year from the date of termination of employment and confidentiality covenants of unlimited duration. If Mr. Hwang’s employment terminates for any reason, he is entitled to statutory severance payments pursuant to the Korean Commercial Code or any other statute.

Effective April 30, 2015, Tae Young Hwang resigned as our Chief Operating Officer and President and from all other officer and director positions with the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries. In connection with Mr. Hwang’s resignation, on April 30, 2015, Mr. Hwang and MagnaChip Korea entered into an Advisory Services and Separation Agreement, or the Hwang Separation Agreement, which provides for Mr. Hwang’s separation from MagnaChip Korea effective as of May 31, 2015. Under the Hwang Separation Agreement, Mr. Hwang will provide advisory services to the Company for a term of 24 months. The advisory services will relate to: supporting the Company’s Chief Executive Officer; the Company’s production processes; transition matters; the Company’s LG Display business; labor union negotiations; cooperation with the Company in connection with any pending litigation or investigation relating to the Company or its affiliates; and any other matters the Company requests in its reasonable discretion. Mr. Hwang will be paid a monthly amount of 27,439,200 Korean won (approximately $25,412.55, with Korean won converted into U.S. Dollars at a reference conversion rate of 1,079.75 Korean won to 1 U.S. Dollar), which is equal to 80% of his current monthly salary, during the term of the Hwang Separation Agreement, payable on a monthly basis, for providing such advisory services. The Hwang Separation Agreement contains a general release of claims, a non-disparagement agreement and a confidentiality agreement by Mr. Hwang. The Hwang Separation Agreement also contains covenants by Mr. Hwang that during the term he provides advisory services to the Company and for one year after the conclusion of such term he will not engage in any activities or services that are competitive with the Company or any of its affiliates or solicit any of the Company’s employees. In consideration for Mr. Hwang’s advisory services and for the other terms agreed by Mr. Hwang in the Hwang Separation Agreement, the Company paid Mr. Hwang a lump sum payment of 100% of his accrued pension benefits as of the effective date of the Hwang Separation Agreement. The value of Mr. Hwang’s accrued pension benefits as of May 31, 2015, the effective date of the Hwang Separation Agreement, was 1,103,424,670 Korean won (approximately $1,021,926.07). The Hwang Separation Agreement also provides that all stock options held by Mr. Hwang will be exercisable for 18 months following the effective date of the Hwang Separation Agreement.

Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control.

Termination. Our named executive officers are eligible to receive certain payments and benefits in connection with certain service termination events pursuant to the terms of our severance agreements with them, as further described under the section entitled “Agreements with Executives and Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control.” The terms “cause” and “good reason” used below have the meanings given to them in the applicable agreements with us.

Change in Control. The Committee has the authority to require that outstanding equity awards be assumed or replaced with substantially equivalent awards by the successor corporation or to cancel the outstanding awards in exchange for a payment in cash or other property equal to the fair market value of restricted units or the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the units subject to an option over the exercise price per unit of such option. For purposes of the foregoing, a “change in control” is generally defined as the acquisition by a person or entity of more than 51% of the combined voting power of our then outstanding voting securities or a sale or transfer of all or substantially all of our consolidated assets to a person or entity that is not our affiliate. The severance agreements with our named executive officers other than Mr. Hwang each provides that, in the event of a change in control, all outstanding and unvested equity awards (including, without limitation, stock options and RSUs) held by such executive will become immediately vested and, in the case of options, exercisable, as of immediately prior to such change in control. The definition of change in control under such severance agreements is the same as under our 2011 Equity Incentive Plan, except that a sale of assets representing at least 65% of our consolidated annual revenue or assets, or a sale of either of our Standard Products Group or foundry business lines, is a change in control for purposes of such severance agreement but not the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan.

The following tables present our estimate of the dollar value of the payments and benefits payable to our named executive officers upon the occurrence of certain terminations of their employment and upon a change in control, assuming that each such event occurred on December 31, 2015 (except for Mr. Hwang, whose employment terminated during 2015), and assuming a closing per share price of $5.29 on December 31, 2015. The disclosure in the following table does not include:

•

any accrued benefits that were earned and payable as of December 31, 2015; or

•

payments and benefits to the extent they are provided generally to all salaried employees and do not discriminate in scope, terms or operation in favor of the named executive officers.

Although the minimum legal severance accrual is one month of base salary per year of service, Mr. Hwang was eligible for accrual of a multiple of two to three months of base salary per year of service during approximately the first ten of his nineteen years of service, or $688,834 in aggregate.

Pension Benefits for the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2015

In addition to the severance benefits described above, pursuant to the Employee Retirement Benefit Security Act, certain executive officers resident in Korea with one or more years of service are entitled to severance benefits upon the termination of their employment for any reason. The base statutory severance accrues at the rate of approximately one month of base salary per year of service and is calculated on a monthly basis based upon the officer’s salary for the prior three-month period. Accordingly, if the named executive officers in the following table had retired on the last day of our fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, they would have been entitled to the statutory severance payments described below. Assuming no change in the applicable law, each of these executives will continue to accrue additional statutory severance benefits at the rate described above until his or her service with us terminates.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management

The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our outstanding common stock for: (1) each person or entity known to us to beneficially own more than 5% of any class of our outstanding securities; (2) each member of our Board of Directors; (3) each of our named executive officers; and (4) all of the members of our Board of Directors and executive officers, as a group. The following tables list the number of shares and percentage of shares beneficially owned based on 34,698,904 shares of common stock outstanding as of March 31, 2016.

The amounts and percentages of equity interests beneficially owned are reported on the basis of SEC regulations governing the determination of beneficial ownership of securities. Under SEC rules, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares “voting power,” which includes the power to vote or to direct the voting of such security, or “investment power,” which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of which that person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Under these rules, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the securities as to which he or she has no economic interest.

Except as indicated by footnote, the persons named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock shown as beneficially owned by them. Unless otherwise indicated, the address of each person listed in the table below is c/o MagnaChip Semiconductor, Ltd., 215 Daesin-ro, Hungduk-gu, Cheongju-si, 361-725, Korea.

The following table provides information as of December 31, 2015, regarding securities authorized for issuance under the Company’s compensation plans. The Company’s compensation plans include the 2009 Plan, the 2011 Plan, and the Purchase Plan. The numbers in the following table do not include options or shares that may be added to the issuable amounts under the 2011 Plan or the Purchase Plan, respectively, after December 31, 2015, in accordance with the terms of the respective plans.

Equity compensation plans not approved by security holders		—			—			—
Total:		3,179,899						894,790

(1)	The number of securities to be issued upon the exercise of outstanding options and the weighted average exercise price do not include any purchase right under the Purchase Plan or the purchase price for the purchase of shares under the Purchase Plan.

(2)	Excludes 1,163,880 shares of common stock that remain available as of December 31, 2015, for future issuance under the suspended Purchase Plan.

In December 2009, our Board of Directors adopted, and our equityholders approved, the MagnaChip Semiconductor LLC 2009 Common Unit Plan, which we refer to as the 2009 Plan. The 2009 Plan provided for the grant of nonstatutory options, restricted unit bonus and purchase right awards, and deferred unit awards to employees and consultants of our Company and our subsidiaries and to members of our Board of Directors. However, only options and restricted unit bonus awards were granted under the 2009 Plan. The 2009 Plan terminated immediately following our corporate conversion, and no additional options or other equity awards may be granted under the 2009 Plan. However, options granted under the 2009 Plan prior to its termination will remain outstanding until they are either exercised or expire. As of December 31, 2015, there were outstanding under the 2009 Plan options to purchase 852,449 shares of common stock, at a weighted average exercise price of $6.22 per share.

The 2011 Plan was approved by our Board of Directors and our stockholders in March 2010. We amended and restated the 2011 Plan in February 2011, and our stockholders approved the amendment in March 2011 to reflect that it became effective in 2011 upon our corporate conversion. 891,703 shares of our common stock, or the total number of shares of common stock (as adjusted by the conversion ratio in the corporate conversion) that remained available for grant upon the termination of the 2009 Plan immediately following the corporate conversion, were initially authorized and reserved.

amount equal to the smaller of 2% of the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31 or an amount determined by our Board of Directors. The number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2011 Plan will also be increased from time to time by up to that number of shares of common stock remaining subject to options and restricted stock awards outstanding under the 2009 Plan at the time of its termination immediately following the corporate conversion that expire or terminate or are forfeited for any reason after the effective date of the 2011 Plan, subject to a cap of 1,412,352 shares. Appropriate adjustments will be made in the number of authorized shares and other numerical limits in the 2011 Plan and in outstanding awards to prevent dilution or enlargement of participants’ rights in the event of a stock split or other change in our capital structure. Shares subject to awards granted under our 2011 Plan which expire, are repurchased, or are cancelled or forfeited will again become available for issuance under the 2011 Plan. The shares available will not be reduced by awards settled in cash. Shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations will not again become available for grant. The gross number of shares issued upon the exercise of stock appreciation rights or options exercised by means of a net exercise or by tender of previously owned shares will be deducted from the shares available under the 2011 Plan.

For more information on our 2011 Equity Incentive Plan, see “Item 11: Executive Compensation—Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Grants of Plan-Based Awards—2011 Equity Incentive Plan.”

The Purchase Plan was approved by our Board of Directors in March 2010. Our Board of Directors amended and restated the Purchase Plan in February 2011 to reflect that the Purchase Plan would become effective in 2011 upon the commencement of the MagnaChip IPO. The Purchase Plan was approved by our stockholders in March 2011 and became effective upon the commencement of the MagnaChip IPO. We initially authorized and reserved 789,890 shares for sale under the Purchase Plan. In August, 2012, the Committee suspended the Purchase Plan.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

Under our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, all conflicts of interest and related party transactions involving our directors or executive officers must be reviewed and approved in writing by our full Board of Directors. In the approval process, the approving authority will review all aspects of the conflict of interest or related party transaction, including but not limited to: (i) compliance with laws, rules and regulations; (ii) the adverse effect on our business and results of operations; (iii) the adverse effect on our relationships with third parties such as customers, vendors and potential investors; (iv) the benefit to the director, officer or employee at issue; and (v) the creation of morale problems among other employees. Our Board of Directors will only approve those related party transactions that, in light of known circumstances, are in, or are not inconsistent with, our best interests.

Registration Rights Agreement

On November 9, 2009, we entered into a registration rights agreement with the holders of MagnaChip Semiconductor LLC’s common units issued in our reorganization proceedings, including Avenue, where we granted them registration rights with respect to our common stock. In 2012 and 2013, the Company paid fees and expenses of $1.2 million and $0.8 million, respectively, in connection with the registration and sale of shares of our common stock by Avenue pursuant to such registration rights agreement. Affiliates of Avenue currently have one employee, Mr. Klein, serving as a member of our Board of Directors. Mr. Elkins, also a current member of our Board of Directors, was previously employed by affiliates of Avenue until December 31, 2012, and served as a consultant to affiliates of Avenue.

Director Independence

The Board of Directors reviews the independence of each director annually. In determining the independence of our directors, our Board of Directors considered Section 303A of the NYSE listing standards and broadly considered the materiality of each director’s relationship with us. Based upon the foregoing criteria, our Board of Directors has determined that the following directors are independent: Mr. R. Douglas Norby, Mr. Michael Elkins, Dr. Ilbok Lee, Mr. Gary Tanner and Mr. Nader Tavakoli. In making such determination of independence for Mr. Elkins under the applicable NYSE independence standards, the Board of Directors specifically considered Mr. Elkins’ previous employment and consulting arrangement with Avenue.

All audit fees were pre-approved by the Company’s Audit Committee, which concluded that the provision of such services by Samil PricewaterhouseCoopers and its affiliates was compatible with the maintenance of that firm’s independence in the conduct of its auditing functions. With respect to outside auditor independence, the Audit Committee Charter provides for pre-approval of audit services and non-audit services, based on independence, qualifications and, if applicable, performance, and approve the fees and other terms of any such engagement. The Audit Committee Charter authorizes the Audit Committee to delegate to one or more of its members the authority to grant pre-approvals for such services, provided that the decisions of such member(s) to grant any such pre-approval shall be presented to the Committee at its next scheduled meeting. The Audit Committee followed these guidelines in approving all services rendered by Samil PricewaterhouseCoopers and its affiliates.
