WEST CHESTER, Pa.--Amkor Technology Inc. today said it plans to sell $225 million in convertible subordinated notes, due 2007, to partially fund the acquisition of three semiconductor packaging plants from Anam Semiconductor Inc. in South Korea.

Last month, Amkor reached a definitive agreement to buy Anam's three remaining chip-packaging and testing factories in Korea for $1.4 billion (see Feb. 28 story).
The 5% 114A convertible subordinate notes will be converted into Amkor common stock at a price of $57.34 per share. Amkor said it has granted the initial purchasers of the notes a 30-day option to purchase additional notes to cover over-allotments, if any.
