2023 Business Report

I. The Operating Performance

  • (I) The implementation of the business plan

Our company primarily engages in the field of wireless communications and related products, focusing on high-tech and high value-added products. We continuously invest in research and development to enhance our R&D capabilities, ensuring we maintain excellent competitiveness. In addition to continuing to explore new technologies and products with market potential, we are also advancing the commercialization of new products, which will drive growth for our operations.

In 2024, we face multiple challenges, including global geopolitical conflicts, the postpandemic, and a slowdown in the global economy. These factors contribute to ongoing uncertainty and risk for business operations. In response, our company not only continues to focus on product and technology investments but also emphasizes enhancing the overall flexibility and risk management of our operations to navigate through an environment of high uncertainty and business risks.

However, despite the continued intensification of operation challenges, the company has managed to achieve consistently strong results, thanks to the unremitting efforts of all colleagues. Consolidated operating income of the company in 2023 was NT$1,779,638 thousand, an increase of 3.59% compared with NT$1,718,039 thousand in 2022; net income of the consolidated period in 2023was NT$205,759 thousand, which decreased by 36.41% compared to NT$323,589 thousand in 2022; basic earnings per share in 2023 was NT$4.42.

II. The Operating Prospect

Antenna system

Antenna is our company's core technology and the main source of revenue and profit. Rely on long-term investment in technology and R&D. We have successfully developed a range of array antenna products, including low-orbit satellite array antennas and FR2 (39G/28G) array antennas. We will continue to invest in both hardware and software technology to enhance our technical strength and market competitiveness. Our accumulated core technology and R&D achievements position us to seize business opportunities in 5G mobile communications and low-orbit satellite communications.

Sales of measurement equipment

Our measurement equipment business primarily comes from agent Switzerland Company SPEAG, which specializes in Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) measurement equipment. Auden provides after-sales service and technical support for these products on behalf of the manufacturer. Since this product has market exclusivity and continues, generate stable revenue and profit to our business. In the future, in addition to maintaining the market share of the agency products, we will actively seek to represent other marketable and edge-cutting equipment to create another revenue growth.

Testing and certification services for wireless communication network

After years of development, communications verification has become mature. Recognizing the future potential of Open Radio Access Network (ORAN), we established the world's first independent third-party ORAN verification laboratory three years ago. This lab helps clients address performance and compliance requirements from the development to the launch of open base stations, extending to new topics like cybersecurity and energy conservation. It aims to provide a one-stop comprehensive testing service, paving the way to 6G communications.

III. Future Development Strategy

With the growing trends in the wireless communication industry and the increasing application of its products, Auden will continue to focus on mobile communications, high-frequency communications, and biomedical fields, along with AI-related product applications and softwarehardware technology integration. It will also actively explore new markets to enhance operational momentum.

Direction of the company's product and technology development :

  • With communication technology as the main focus, we continue to construct RF, SAR, Biomagnetic and other software and hardware integration technologies.

  • Use the mmWave technology and products as a new growth driver, targeting low Earth orbit satellite user terminals (UT) and telecom-grade O-RUs opportunity.

  • Center research and development around mobile communications, high-frequency communications, and biomedical markets, creating highly competitive wireless RF communication products.

  • Cultivate cross-domain technology and product integration and testing capabilities to maintain a leading edge in wireless communication products.

Continue providing customers with end-to-end services, from product planning and R&D design to mass production and market certification. Build a one-stop integration service to shorten customer development timelines, and accelerate product time-to-market.

Independent Auditors’ Report

To the Board of Directors of Auden Techno Corp.:

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying parent company only financial statements of Auden Techno Corp. ("the Company"), which comprise the statements of financial position as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the parent company only financial statements, including a summary of material accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying parent company only financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the accompanying financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Financial Statement Audit and Attestation Engagements of Certified Public Accountants and Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with The Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis of our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the parent company only financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Revenue Recognition

Please refer to notes 4(n) and 6(u) for the related to disclosures on the revenue recognition of the parent company only financial statements.

Description of the key audit matter

The Company's operating income is a key indicator for management to evaluate the financial or business performance, and is highly expected by the investors. Therefore, the revenue recognition has been identified as a key audit matter.

  • 6 -

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our audit procedures include testing the effectiveness of the design and implementation of the internal controls in relation to sales and cash collection, conducting trend analysis for the top ten customers by comparing the changes or differences to evaluate if there is any significant irregularity, performing random sample checking on the sales transactions to evaluate the authenticity of these transactions, the correctness of the recognized amount of sales revenue and the reasonableness of the timing of recording, and reviewing samples of sales transactions for a specified period before and after the end of the year to assess the correctness of the revenue attribution period and recognition.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Parent Company Only Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the parent company only financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of parent company only financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the parent company only financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance (including members of the Audit Committee) are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent Company Only Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the parent company only financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these parent company only financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the parent company only financial statements whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  2. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.

  3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  4. 7 -

  5. Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors' report to the related disclosures in the parent company only financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors' report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

  6. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the parent company only financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the parent company only financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  7. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the investment in other entities accounted for using the equity method to express an opinion on the parent company only financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Lu, Lily and Wu, Lin.

Independent Auditors’ Report

To the Board of Directors of Auden Techno Corp.:

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Auden Techno Corp. and its subsidiaries (“ the Group”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of material accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs"), International Accounting Standards ("IASs"), interpretation as well as related guidance endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Financial Statement Audit and Attestation Engagements of Certified Public Accountants and Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with The Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis of our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Revenue Recognition

Please refer to notes 4(o) and 6(t) for the related disclosures on the revenue recognition of the consolidated financial statements.

Description of key audit matter

The Sales revenue of the Group is a key indicator for management to evaluate financial or business performance. and is highly expected by the investors. Therefore, the revenue recognition has been identified as a key audit matter.

  • 13 -

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our audit procedures include testing the effectiveness of the design and and implementation of the internal controls in relation to revenue recognition and cash collection, conducting trend analysis for the top ten customers by comparing the changes or differences to evaluate if there is any significant irregularity, performing random sample checking on the sales transactions to evaluate the authenticity of these transactions, the correctness of the recognized amount of sales revenue and the reasonableness of the timing of recording, and reviewing samples of sales transactions for a specified period before and after the end of the year to assess whether the timing of revenue recognition is appropriate.

Other Matter

The Company has prepared its parent company only financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, on which we have issued an unmodified opinion.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and IFRSs, IASs, interpretation as well as related guidance endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republice of China and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance (including members of the Audit Committee) are responsible for overseeing the Group's financial reporting process.

Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  2. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group's internal control.

  3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  4. 14 -

  5. Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors' report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors' report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

  6. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  7. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor's report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Lu, Lily and Wu, Lin.

act in place of the chairperson; if there is no vice chairperson or the vice chairperson also is on leave or for any reason unable to
exercise the powers of the vice chairperson, the chairperson shall appoint one of the managing directors to act as chair, or, if there are
no managing directors, one of the directors shall be appointed to act as chair. Where the chairperson does not make such a designation,
the managing directors or the directors shall select from among themselves one person to serve as chair.
When a managing director or a director serves as chair, as referred to in the preceding paragraph, the managing director or director
shall be one who has held that position for six months or more and who understands the financial and business conditions of the
company. The same shall be true for a representative of a juristic person director that serves as chair.
It is advisable that shareholders meetings convened by the board of directors be chaired by the chairperson of the board in person and
at least one member of each functional committee on behalf of the committee. The attendance shall be recorded in the meeting minutes.
If a shareholders meeting is convened by a party with power to convene but other than the board of directors, the convening party
shall chair the meeting. When there are two or more such convening parties, they shall mutually select a chair from among themselves.
This Corporation may appoint its attorneys, certified public accountants, or related persons retained by it to attend a shareholders
meeting in a non-voting capacity
Article 8 This Corporation, beginning from the time it accepts shareholder attendance registrations, shall make an uninterrupted audio and video
recording of the registration procedure, the proceedings of the shareholders meeting, and the voting and vote counting procedures.
The recorded materials of the preceding paragraph shall be retained for at least one year. If, however, a shareholder files a lawsuit
pursuant to Article 189 of the Company Act, the recording shall be retained until the conclusion of the litigation.
Where a shareholders meeting is held online, this Corporation shall keep records of shareholder registration, sign-in, check-in,
questions raised, votes cast and results of votes counted by this Corporation, and continuously audio and video record, without
interruption, the proceedings of the virtual meeting from beginning to end.
The information and audio and video recording in the preceding paragraph shall be properly kept by this Corporation during the
entirety of its existence, and copies of the audio and video recording shall be provided to and kept by the party appointed to handle
matters of the virtual meeting.
In case of a virtual shareholders meeting, this Corporation is advised to audio and video record the back-end operation interface of the
virtual meeting platform.
Article 9 Attendance at shareholders meetings shall be calculated based on numbers of shares. The number of shares in attendance shall be
calculated according to the shares indicated by the attendance book and sign-in cards handed in plus the number of shares whose
voting rights are exercised by correspondence or electronically.
The chair shall call the meeting to order at the appointed meeting time, and announce the number of shares without voting rights, and
attending shares at the same time. However, when the attending shareholders do not represent a majority of the total number of issued
shares, the chair may announce a postponement, provided that no more than two such postponements, for a combined total of no more
than one hour, may be made. If the quorum is not met after two postponements and the attending shareholders still represent less than
one third of the total number of issued shares, the chair shall declare the meeting adjourned;In the event of a virtual shareholders
meeting, this Corporation shall also declare the meeting adjourned at the virtual meeting platform.
If the quorum is not met after two postponements as referred to in the preceding paragraph, but the attending shareholders represent
one third or more of the total number of issued shares, a tentative resolution may be adopted pursuant to Article 175, paragraph 1 of
the Company Act; all shareholders shall be notified of the tentative resolution and another shareholders meeting shall be convened
within one month. In the event of a virtual shareholders meeting, shareholders intending to attend the meeting online shall re-register
to this Corporation in accordance with Article 6.
When, prior to conclusion of the meeting, the attending shareholders represent a majority of the total number of issued shares, the
chair may resubmit the tentative resolution for a vote by the shareholders meeting pursuant to Article 174 of the Company Act.
Article 10 If a shareholders meeting is convened by the board of directors, the meeting agenda shall be set by the board of directors. Votes shall
be cast on each separate proposal in the agenda (including extraordinary motions and amendments to the original proposals set out in
the agenda). The meeting shall proceed in the order set by the agenda, which may not be changed without a resolution of the
shareholders meeting.
The provisions of the preceding paragraph apply mutatis mutandis to a shareholders meeting convened by a party with the power to
convene that is not the board of directors.
The chair may not declare the meeting adjourned prior to completion of deliberation on the meeting agenda of the preceding two
paragraphs (including extraordinary motions), except by a resolution of the shareholders meeting. If the chair declares the meeting
adjourned in violation of the rules of procedure, the other members of the board of directors shall promptly assist the attending
shareholders in electing a new chair in accordance with statutory procedures, by agreement of a majority of the votes represented by
the attending shareholders, and then continue the meeting.
The chair shall allow ample opportunity during the meeting for explanation and discussion of proposals and of amendments or
extraordinary motions put forward by the shareholders; when the chair is of the opinion that a proposal has been discussed sufficiently
to put it to a vote, the chair may announce the discussion closed, call for a vote, and schedule sufficient time for voting.
Article 11 Before speaking, an attending shareholder must specify on a speaker's slip the subject of the speech, his/her shareholder account
number (or attendance card number), and account name. The order in which shareholders speak will be set by the chair.
A shareholder in attendance who has submitted a speaker's slip but does not actually speak shall be deemed to have not spoken. When
the content of the speech does not correspond to the subject given on the speaker's slip, the spoken content shall prevail.
Except with the consent of the chair, a shareholder may not speak more than twice on the same proposal, and a single speech may not
exceed 5 minutes. If the shareholder's speech violates the rules or exceeds the scope of the agenda item, the chair may terminate the
speech.
  • 24 -
When an attending shareholder is speaking, other shareholders may not speak or interrupt unless they have sought and obtained the
consent of the chair and the shareholder that has the floor; the chair shall stop any violation.
When a juristic person shareholder appoints two or more representatives to attend a shareholders meeting, only one of the
representatives so appointed may speak on the same proposal.
After an attending shareholder has spoken, the chair may respond in person or direct relevant personnel to respond.
Where a virtual shareholders meeting is convened, shareholders attending the virtual meeting online may raise questions in writing at
the virtual meeting platform from the chair declaring the meeting open until the chair declaring the meeting adjourned. No more than
two questions for the same proposal may be raised. Each question shall contain no more than 200 words. The regulations in paragraphs
1 to 5 do not apply.
As long as questions so raised in accordance with the preceding paragraph are not in violation of the regulations or beyond the scope
of a proposal, it is advisable the questions be disclosed to the public at the virtual meeting platform.
Article 12 Voting at a shareholders meeting shall be calculated based the number of shares.
With respect to resolutions of shareholders meetings, the number of shares held by a shareholder with no voting rights shall not be
calculated as part of the total number of issued shares.
When a shareholder is an interested party in relation to an agenda item, and there is the likelihood that such a relationship would
prejudice the interests of this Corporation, that shareholder may not vote on that item, and may not exercise voting rights as proxy for
any other shareholder.
The number of shares for which voting rights may not be exercised under the preceding paragraph shall not be calculated as part of
the voting rights represented by attending shareholders.
With the exception of a trust enterprise or a shareholder services agent approved by the competent securities authority, when one
person is concurrently appointed as proxy by two or more shareholders, the voting rights represented by that proxy may not exceed
three percent of the voting rights represented by the total number of issued shares. If that percentage is exceeded, the voting rights in
excess of that percentage shall not be included in the calculation.
Article 13 A shareholder shall be entitled to one vote for each share held, except when the shares are restricted shares or are deemed non-voting
shares under Article 179, paragraph 2 of the Company Act.
When this Corporation holds a shareholder meeting, it shall adopt exercise of voting rights by electronic means and may adopt exercise
of voting rights by correspondence. When voting rights are exercised by correspondence or electronic means, the method of exercise
shall be specified in the shareholders meeting notice. A shareholder exercising voting rights by correspondence or electronic means
will be deemed to have attended the meeting in person, but to have waived his/her rights with respect to the extraordinary motions
and amendments to original proposals of that meeting; it is therefore advisable that this Corporation avoid the submission of
extraordinary motions and amendments to original proposals.
A shareholder intending to exercise voting rights by correspondence or electronic means under the preceding paragraph shall deliver
a written declaration of intent to this Corporation before two days before the date of the shareholders meeting. When duplicate
declarations of intent are delivered, the one received earliest shall prevail, except when a declaration is made to cancel the earlier
declaration of intent.
After a shareholder has exercised voting rights by correspondence or electronic means, in the event the shareholder intends to attend
the shareholders meeting in person, a written declaration of intent to retract the voting rights already exercised under the preceding
paragraph shall be made known to this Corporation, by the same means by which the voting rights were exercised, before two business
days before the date of the shareholders meeting. If the notice of retraction is submitted after that time, the voting rights already
exercised by correspondence or electronic means shall prevail. When a shareholder has exercised voting rights both by correspondence
or electronic means and by appointing a proxy to attend a shareholders meeting, the voting rights exercised by the proxy in the meeting
shall prevail.
Except as otherwise provided in the Company Act and in this Corporation's articles of incorporation, the passage of a proposal shall
require an affirmative vote of a majority of the voting rights represented by the attending shareholders. At the time of a vote, for each
proposal, the chair or a person designated by the chair shall first announce the total number of voting rights represented by the attending
shareholders, followed by a poll of the shareholders. After the conclusion of the meeting, on the same day it is held, the results for
each proposal, based on the numbers of votes for and against and the number of abstentions, shall be entered into the MOPS.
When there is an amendment or an alternative to a proposal, the chair shall present the amended or alternative proposal together with
the original proposal and decide the order in which they will be put to a vote. When any one among them is passed, the other proposals
will then be deemed rejected, and no further voting shall be required.
Vote monitoring and counting personnel for the voting on a proposal shall be appointed by the chair, provided that all monitoring
personnel shall be shareholders of this Corporation. Vote counting for shareholders meeting proposals or elections shall be conducted
in public at the place of the shareholders meeting. Immediately after vote counting has been completed, the results of the voting,
including the statistical tallies of the numbers of votes, shall be announced on-site at the meeting, and a record made of the vote.
When this Corporation convenes a virtual shareholders meeting, after the chair declares the meeting open, shareholders attending the
meeting online shall cast votes on proposals and elections on the virtual meeting platform before the chair announces the voting
session ends or will be deemed abstained from voting.
In the event of a virtual shareholders meeting, votes shall be counted at once after the chair announces the voting session ends, and
results of votes and elections shall be announced immediately.

When this Corporation convenes a hybrid shareholders meeting, if shareholders who have registered to attend the meeting online in accordance with Article 6 decide to attend the physical shareholders meeting in person, they shall revoke their registration two days before the shareholders meeting in the same manner as they registered. If their registration is not revoked within the time limit, they may only attend the shareholders meeting online.

When shareholders exercise voting rights by correspondence or electronic means, unless they have withdrawn the declaration of intent and attended the shareholders meeting online, except for extraordinary motions, they will not exercise voting rights on the original proposals or make any amendments to the original proposals or exercise voting rights on amendments to the original proposal.

  • 25 -
Article 14 The election of directors at a shareholders meeting shall be held in accordance with the applicable election and appointment regulations
adopted by this company, and the voting results shall be announced on-site immediately, including the names of those elected as
directors and the numbers of votes with which they were elected, as well as the names of those unelected ones and the numbers of
votes they obtained.
The ballots for the election referred to in the preceding paragraph shall be sealed with the signatures of the monitoring personnel and
kept in proper custody for at least one year. If, however, a shareholder files a lawsuit pursuant to Article 189 of the company Act, the
ballots shall be retained until the conclusion of the litigation.

produced and distributed in electronic form

the MOPS.
The meeting minutes shall accurately record the year, month, day, and place of the meeting, the chair's full name, the methods by
which resolutions were adopted, and a summary of the deliberations and their voting results (including the number of voting rights),
and disclose the number of voting rights won by each candidate in the event of an election of directors. The minutes shall be retained

place of the shareholders meeting. In the event a virtual shareholders meeting, this Corporation shall upload the above meeting
materials to the virtual meeting platform at least 30 minutes before the meeting starts, and keep this information disclosed until the
end of the meeting.
