<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Hsinchu, Taiwan, R.O.C., July&nbsp;16, 2015 &#151; </B>TSMC today announced consolidated revenue of NT$205.44 billion, net income of NT$79.42 billion, and
diluted earnings per share of NT$3.06 (US$0.50 per ADR unit) for the second quarter ended June&nbsp;30, 2015. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Year-over-year, second quarter revenue
increased 12.2% while net income and diluted EPS both increased 33.0%. Compared to first quarter 2015, second quarter results represent a 7.5% decrease in revenue, and a 0.5% increase in net income. All figures were prepared in accordance with TIFRS
on a consolidated basis. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In US dollars, second quarter revenue decreased 5.4% from the previous quarter and increased 9.6% year-over-year. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Gross margin for the quarter was 48.5%, operating margin was 37.5%, and net profit margin was 38.7%. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Shipments of 20-nanometer process technology accounted for 20% of total wafer revenues. 28-nanometer accounted for 27% of total wafer revenues. Advanced
technologies, defined as 28-nanometer and 20-nanometer technologies, accounted for 47% of total wafer revenues. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">&#147;Due to
customers&#146; cautious inventory management and a less favorable exchange rate, our second quarter business had declined but was within our expectation and guidance,&#148; said Lora Ho, SVP and Chief Financial Officer of TSMC. &#147;However, the
end market recovery is not as strong as was expected earlier; customers continue to remain cautious in inventory management. Combining these factors with customers&#146; product transition, demand for TSMC wafers in the third quarter is expected to
recover only modestly. Based on our current business outlook and exchange rate assumption of 1 US dollar to 31 NT dollars, management expects overall performance for third quarter 2015 to be as follows&#148;: </P>
