Bafang Yunji International Co., Ltd. 2023 Business Report

In 2023, amidst the international unrest due to the protracted Russia-Ukraine war and renewed conflicts in Israel and Gaza, although global inflation saw a slight ease post-pandemic, the prices of poultry and livestock meats continued to rise without signs of falling back, leading to a substantial increase in production costs. Despite the erosion of gross margins due to rising prices, Bafang Yunji (the company) continued to move forward with franchisees and suppliers with the original intention, launching new products and optimizing services through the efforts of all employees. Although profits in 2023 did not meet expectations, performance still continued to grow.

The Company reported consolidated revenues of NT$7,339,890 thousand in 2023, up 7.95% from 2022; Affected by the high prices of poultry and livestock meats, the consolidated gross margin in 2023 was 34.78%, a decrease of 2.37% from 2022; Consolidated net income totaled NT$537,755 thousand , a decline of 16.64% from 2022; the net profit margin was 7.33%, down 2.16% from 2022; and earnings per share were calculated at NT$8.35, down 16.5% from 2022.

In 2023, various brands in Taiwan, besides continuing to expand stores, also focused on adjusting poorly performing stores, weeding out the weaker ones to maintain service quality and enhance brand strength. Apart from Dante's brand, which saw a decline in performance due to the closure of poorly performing stores, brands such as Bafang Yunji, Liang She-Han Pork Ribs, and FJ Veggie saw growth over the previous period. In Hong Kong, performance rebounded post-pandemic, with the introduction of Liang She-Han Pork Ribs and the establishment of two stores, achieving double-digit growth over the previous period. In the US, new stores continued to open, with 6 direct-operated stores operational so far, significantly boosting performance. In terms of profitability, Taiwan's performance grew but profits declined from the previous period due to the impact of historically high prices of poultry and meat products. Hong Kong maintained its gross margin and increased operating profit, but overall profits were lower than the previous period without the government's pandemic subsidies. Although the pace of expansion in the US was slightly delayed, all six existing stores were profitable, but the central factory has not yet reached economic scale, resulting in slight losses in the US. By the end of 2023, the Company had 1,359 stores globally, including 1,064 Bafang Yunji stores, 214 Liang She-Han Pork Ribs stores, 44 FJ Veggie stores, 12 Bai Fung Bento, and 5 Bafang Noodles & More stores in Hong Kong, and 20 Dante Coffee stores.

8

Looking forward to 2024, the Company will continue to expand its business landscape with a multi-brand, multi-market operation strategy and actively develop international markets. Besides physical stores, online sales will also be enhanced. In Taiwan, apart from ongoing expansion, Bafang Yunji will continue through store optimization and periodic new product launches, introducing frozen beef noodle meal kits to increase product diversity and convenience services for consumers. Liang She-Han Pork Ribs will also continue to develop new products to enhance meal and service quality, increasing customer visits and brand penetration. FJ Veggie, having established 44 stores in over two years, will continue to change menus and improve store operation efficiency to attract more consumers to vegetarian dining. In Hong Kong, Bai Fung Bento and Bafang Noodles & More will continue to develop quality store locations. In the US, besides the 6 stores already opened, 8 more contracted stores will gradually open. Beyond Southern California, we are actively looking for development opportunities in Northern California and other states. Simultaneously, the franchise system application will be initiated, looking forward to promoting franchise development next year.

Here, we thank all shareholders for their support. The Company adheres to the corporate spirit of "altruism, sharing, and charity", implementing corporate governance, deepening sustainable business practices, and enhancing competitiveness to face challenges, creating profits for shareholders and benefits for society.

We hereby report the above in accordance with Article 14-4 of the Securities and Exchange Act and Article 219 of the Company Act. Please review.

Convener of the Audit Committee: Chiu, Shih-Fang

Attachment III

Independent Auditors’ Report

The Board of Directors and Shareholders

Bafang Yunji International Co., Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Bafang Yunji International Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the “Group”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the consolidated financial statements, including material accounting policy information (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”).

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 International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (SIC) endorsed and issued into effect 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 the 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 for 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.

11

Key audit matter of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 is described as follows:

Authenticity of sales revenues from shipments to specific customers

The Group is principally engaged in food processing, food ingredients trading and providing food and beverage services. Based on the materiality and the presumption of significant risk in revenue recognition in the Statement of Auditing Standards; Therefore, we believe that the authenticity of sales revenues from shipments to specific customers recognized by the Group has a significant impact on the financial statements. Therefore, the authenticity of the sales revenues from shipments to specific customers is listed as a key audit matter of this year. For a description of the revenue recognition policy, please refer to Note 4(13).

We conducted the following audit procedures:

  1. Understand and test the design and implementation of internal control relevant to revenue recognition for specific customers.

  2. Review a selected sample of the revenue details of the specific customers, review the supporting documentation and test the collection status to confirm that the sales transaction occurred.

  3. Review whether significant sales returns and discounts have occurred for the specific customers since the balance sheet date to confirm whether there is any material misstatement of revenues.

Other Matter

We have also audited the parent company only financial statements of Bafang Yunji International Co., Ltd. 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 IFRS, IAS, IFRIC,and SIC endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic 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

12

liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance, including the audit committees, 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 maintain 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 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. 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 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 Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

  5. 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.

  6. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated

13

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 auditors’ 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.

Independent Auditors’ Report

The Board of Directors and shareholders

Bafang Yunji International Co., Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying parent company only financial statements of Bafang Yunji International Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) ), which comprise the parent company only balance sheets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the parent company only 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 material accounting policy information.

In our opinion, the accompanying parent company only financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the 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 the 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 for 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.

The key audit matter of the Company’s parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 is described as follows:

Authenticity of sales revenues from shipments to specific customers

22

The Company is principally engaged in food processing, food ingredients trading and providing food and restaurant services. Based on the materiality and the presumption of significant risk in revenue recognition in the Statement of Auditing Standards; Therefore, we believe that the authenticity of sales revenues from shipments to specific customers recognized by the Company has a significant impact on the financial statements. Therefore, the authenticity of the sales revenues from shipments to specific customers is listed as a key audit matter of this year. For a description of the revenue recognition policy, please refer to Note 4(11).

We conducted the following audit procedures:

  1. Understand and test the design and implementation of internal control relevant to revenue recognition for specific customers.

  2. Review a selected sample of the revenue details of the specific customers, review the supporting documentation and test the collection status to confirm that the sales transaction occurred.

  3. Review whether significant sales returns and discounts have occurred for the specific customers since the balance sheet date to confirm whether there is any material misstatement of revenues.

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 the audit committees, are responsible for overseeing the Group’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

23

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 maintain 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. 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.

  5. 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

  6. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the parent company only 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.

24

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 auditors’ 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.

may propose a motion to the Company for a regular shareholders' meeting. Any proposal with more than one motion shall not be included in the agenda. In addition, the board of directors must not include the motion proposed by the shareholder under any of the circumstances set forth in Article 172-1, Paragraph IV of the Company Act. Shareholders may submit proposals to urge the Company to promote public interests or fulfill its social responsibilities. In terms of procedures, the number of items in the proposals should be limited to one in accordance with the relevant provisions of Article 172-1 of the Company Act.

Article 4 Proxy to attend shareholders' meetings and authorization A shareholder may appoint a proxy printed and issued by the Company to attend a shareholders’ meeting on his/her/its behalf by executing a power of attorney stating therein the scope of power authorized to the proxy. A shareholder may only execute one power of attorney and appoint one proxy only, and shall serve such written proxy to the Company no later than 5 days prior to the meeting date of the shareholders’ meeting. In case two or more written proxies are received from one shareholder, the first one received by the Company shall prevail; unless an explicit statement to revoke the previously written proxy is made in the proxy, which comes later. After the service of the power of attorney of a proxy to the Company, in case the shareholder issuing the said proxy intends to attend the shareholders’ meeting in person or to exercise his/her/its voting power in writing or by way of electronic transmission, a proxy rescission notice shall be filed with the Company two days prior to the date of the shareholders’ meeting as scheduled in the shareholders’ meeting notice so as to rescind the proxy at issue. Otherwise, the voting power exercised by the authorized proxy at the meeting shall prevail.

Article 5 Principles for the location and time of shareholders' meetings The location for a shareholders’ meeting should be the premises of the Company, or a place easily accessible to shareholders and suitable for a shareholders’ meeting. The meeting may begin no earlier than 9 a.m. and no later than 3 p.m. Independent directors' opinions on the meeting location and time shall also be fully considered. The Company shall not be restricted from holding a video shareholders' meeting at the location as described above.

Article 6 Preparation of signature books and other documents The time during which shareholder attendance registrations will be accepted should be at least 30 minutes prior to the time the meeting commences. The place at which attendance registrations are accepted should be clearly marked and a sufficient number of suitable personnel should be assigned to handle the

40

registrations.

Shareholders or their proxies (hereinafter referred to as the shareholders) should present attendance cards, sign-in cards, or other attendance certificates to attend a shareholders' meeting. The Company must not arbitrarily add requirements for other documents from the shareholders in support of their eligibility to attend. Solicitors seeking proxy forms should also bring identification documents for verification.

The Company shall furnish a signature book for the attending shareholders to sign in, or the attending shareholders shall submit a sign-in card to sign in on their behalf.

The Company should furnish attending shareholders with the meeting handbook, annual report, attendance card, speaker slips, voting ballots, and other meeting materials. Where there is an election of directors, election ballots should also be furnished.

When a shareholder is a government or a corporation, the number of representatives to attend the shareholders' meeting is not limited to one. When a juristic person is entrusted to attend a shareholders' meeting, only one representative can be appointed to attend.

Article 7 Chair and attendees at shareholders' meetings If a shareholders' meeting is convened by the board of directors, the chairperson of the board shall chair the meeting. When the chairperson is on leave or for any reason unable to exercise the powers of office, the chairperson shall appoint one of the directors to act as chair. Where the chairperson does not make such a designation, the directors shall select from among themselves one person to serve as chair.

When a director serves as chair, the 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 corporate director that serves as chair.

For the shareholders’ meeting convened by the board of directors, the chairperson of the board should preside in person, and a majority of the directors (including at least one independent director) and at least one representative of various functional committees should attend, and the attendance should be recorded in the shareholders' meeting minutes. If a shareholders’ meeting is convened by someone with the convening right but other than the board of directors, the convening person shall chair the meeting and if there are more than two such persons, one of them shall be elected as the chair of the meeting. The Company may appoint lawyers, CPA, or related personnel to attend the shareholders’ meeting. Article 8 Audio or video recordings of shareholders' meetings as evidence After the public offering of the Company’s shares, the Company, beginning from the time it accepts shareholder attendance registrations, should make an uninterrupted audio and video recording of the registration procedure, the proceedings of the shareholders' meeting, and the voting and vote counting processes. The recorded materials of the preceding paragraph should be kept for at least one year. However, if a lawsuit has been instituted by any shareholder in accordance with the provisions of Article 189 of the Company

41

Act, the minutes of the shareholders' meeting involved shall be kept by the Company until the legal proceedings of the foregoing lawsuit have been concluded.

Article 9 Calculation of the number of shares attending and convening the shareholders’ meeting Attendance in a shareholders' meeting should be calculated based on the number of shares. The number of shares in attendance shall be calculated based on the shares indicated by the signature book or sign-in cards handed in and the video conference platform, plus the number of shares whose voting rights are exercised by correspondence or electronically.

The chair should call the meeting to order at the scheduled meeting time, and at the same time, announce the number of shares with no voting rights and the number of shares present, etc.

However, when the attending shareholders do not represent a majority of the total number of issued shares, the chair may announce a postponement. No more than two such postponements may be made for a combined total of no more than one hour. When there are still insufficiently attending shareholders representing more than one-third of the total issued shares after two postponements, the chair shall announce the meeting to be aborted. If the meeting is held by video conference, the Company shall also announce the meeting to be aborted on the video conference platform of the shareholders' meeting.

When there are still insufficiently attending shareholders representing more than one-third of the total issued shares after two postponements, a tentative resolution may be adopted in accordance with Article 175, Paragraph 1 of the Company Act and all shareholders shall be notified of the tentative resolution and another shareholders' meeting shall be convened within one month. If the shareholders' meeting is held by video conference, the shareholders who wish to attend the meeting by video conference shall re-register with the Company in accordance with Article 16.

Before the conclusion of the meeting, if the attending shareholders represent a majority of the total number of issued shares, the chair may submit a tentative resolution for voting by the shareholders' meeting in accordance with Article 174 of the Company Act.

Article 10 Motion discussion

If a shareholders’ meeting is convened by the board of directors, the meeting agenda shall be set by the board of directors. The meeting should proceed in the order set by the agenda, which may not be changed without a resolution of the shareholders’ meeting.

If a shareholders’ meeting is convened by someone with the convening right but other than the board of directors, the provisions of the preceding paragraph shall apply mutatis mutandis.

The chair must not declare the meeting adjourned before the conclusion of the meeting agenda of the preceding two paragraphs (including extempore motions) except by a resolution of the shareholders' meeting. However, if the chair violates the rules of procedure and adjourns the meeting, a majority of the shareholders present may vote to elect a chair to continue the meeting. The chair shall give sufficient explanation and opportunity to discuss the

42

proposals and any amendments or extempore motions proposed by the shareholders, and when he/she is of the opinion that the motion is ready to be voted on, he/she may declare that the discussion is closed and put it to the vote. Article 11 Shareholders' speech When speaking, an attending shareholder shall specify on a speaker's slip the subject of the speech, 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 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 each speech shall not last for more than 5 minutes. If the shareholder's speech violates the rules or exceeds the scope of the agenda item, the chair may terminate the speech. 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 corporate 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. If the shareholders' meeting is convened by video conference, shareholders participating by video conference may ask questions by text on the video conference platform after the meeting chair calls the meeting to order and before the meeting is adjourned, and the number of questions shall not exceed two for each motion, and each time shall be limited to 200 words, and the provisions of Article 1 to Article 5 shall not apply.

Article 12 Calculation of voting shares and recusal system Voting in a shareholders' meeting should be calculated based on the number of shares. The shares held by shareholders having no voting right shall not be counted in the total number of issued shares while adopting a resolution at a meeting of shareholders.

A shareholder who has a personal interest in the matter under discussion at a meeting, which may impair the interest of the Company, shall not vote nor exercise the voting right on behalf of another shareholder. The number of shares for which voting rights are not allowed to be exercised in the preceding paragraph shall not be calculated as part of the voting rights represented by attending shareholders. Except for trust enterprises or stock agencies approved by the competent authority, when a person acts as the proxy for two or more shareholders, the number of voting power represented by him/her shall not exceed 3% of the total number of voting shares of the Company. Otherwise, the portion of excessive voting power shall not be counted.

43

Article 13 Voting on motions A shareholder shall have one voting right per share, except when the shares are restricted shares or have no voting rights under Article 179, Paragraph 2 of the Company Act.

When the Company holds a shareholders’ meeting, it shall allow the exercise of voting rights by electronic means or by correspondence. When voting rights are exercised by correspondence or electronic means, the method of exercise should be specified in the shareholders' meeting notice. A shareholder exercising voting rights by correspondence or electronic means shall be deemed to have attended the meeting in person. But his or her rights shall be considered abstained with respect to the extempore motions and amendments to original proposals of that meeting.

In case a shareholder elects to exercise his/her/its voting power in writing or by way of electronic transmission, as mentioned in the preceding paragraph, his/her/its declaration of intention shall be served to the Company two days prior to the scheduled meeting date of the shareholders' meeting, whereas if two or more declarations of the same intention are served to the Company, the first declaration of such intention received shall prevail; unless an explicit statement to revoke the previous declaration is made in the declaration which comes later.

In case a shareholder who has exercised his/her/its voting power in writing or by way of electronic transmission intends to attend the shareholders' meeting in person, he/she/it shall, two days prior to the meeting date of the scheduled shareholders' meeting at the latest and in the same manner previously used in exercising his/her/its voting power, serve a separate declaration of intention to rescind his/her/its previous declaration of intention made in exercising the voting power under the preceding Paragraph Two. In the absence of a timely rescission of the previous declaration of intention, the voting power exercised in writing or by way of electronic transmission shall prevail. In case a shareholder has exercised his/her/its voting power in writing or by way of electronic transmission, and has also authorized a proxy to attend the shareholders' meeting on his/her/its behalf, then the voting power exercised by the authorized proxy for the said shareholder shall prevail.

Unless otherwise required by the Company Act and by the Company's Article of Incorporation, the approval of a proposal shall require an affirmative vote of a majority of the voting rights of the attending shareholders. During voting, if the chair solicits and receives no dissents, the motion is deemed passed, with equivalent force as a resolution by vote. The outcome of a vote at the audit committee meeting shall be reported on the spot and be recorded accordingly. At the time of voting, the chair or the person designated by the chair should first announce the total number of voting rights of the attending shareholders for each proposal, then the shareholders shall vote on each proposal. On the same day after the meeting, the results of shareholders’ approvals, disapprovals and abstentions, shall be entered into the Market Observation Post System. 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 voting. When any one among them is approved, the other proposals will then be deemed rejected, and no further voting shall be required.

Monitoring and counting personnel for voting on a proposal shall be appointed

44

by the chair, but all monitoring personnel should be shareholders.
Vote counting for shareholders' meeting proposals or elections should be
conducted in a public place during the shareholders' meeting. Immediately
after vote counting has been completed, the results of the voting, including the
statistics of the number of rights, shall be announced on the spot in the
meeting, and recorded.
Article 14 Election matters
In the event of an election of directors in a shareholders' meeting, the election
results, including the list of elected directors and the number of their elected
rights, should be announced on the spot in accordance with the relevant
election regulations established by the Company.
The election ballots for the aforementioned election shall be sealed and signed
by the vote monitoring personnel and kept in a safe place for at least one year.
However, if a lawsuit has been instituted by any shareholder in accordance
with the provisions of Article 189 of the Company Act, the minutes of the
shareholders' meeting involved shall be kept by the Company until the legal
proceedings of the foregoing lawsuit have been concluded.
Article 15 Meeting minutes and signatures
Resolutions adopted at a shareholders' meeting shall be recorded in the minutes
of the meeting, which shall be affixed with the signature or seal of the
chairman of the meeting and shall be distributed to all shareholders of the
Company within twenty (20) days after the close of the meeting. The
preparation and distribution of the minutes of shareholders' meetings may be
effected by means of electronic transmission.
After the public offering of the Company’s shares, the distribution of the
aforementioned resolutions can be entered into the Market Observation Post

voting results (including the statistical weights). If there is an election of
directors, the votes received by each nominee shall also be disclosed. The
minutes are to be kept permanently during the Company's existence.
The method of the preceding resolution shall be recorded as "approved by the
chair after consultation with all shareholders present without dissent" if the
shareholders do not object to the resolution after consultation by the chair;
however, if the shareholders object to the resolution, the method of voting and
the number and proportion of votes in favor shall be stated.
Article 16 External announcement
On the day of a shareholders' meeting, the Company should compile in the
prescribed format a statistical statement of the number of shares obtained by
solicitors and the number of shares represented by proxies, and shall make an
express disclosure in the shareholders' meeting.
After the public offering of the Company’s shares, if a resolution in a
shareholders' meeting constitutes material information required by relevant
laws or regulations or by Taiwan Stock Exchange (Taipei Exchange), the
Company should transmit the content of such resolution to the Market
Observation Post System within the prescribed time period.

45

Article 17 The personnel administering the shareholders' meeting should wear
identification cards or armbands.
The chair may direct proctors or security personnel to help maintain order in
the meeting place. Proctors or security officers, when helping maintain order at
the scene, should wear armbands or identification cards with the word
“Proctor”.
If the meeting place is equipped with sound-amplifying equipment, the chair
may stop any shareholders from speaking unless they are using the equipment
set up by the Company.
When a shareholder violates the rules of procedure, disobeys the chair's
correction, or obstructs the proceedings and refuses to follow the call to stop,
the chair may direct proctors or security personnel to escort the shareholder out
of the meeting.
Article 18 Rest and resumption of the meeting
When a meeting is in progress, the chair may announce a break based on time
considerations. If a force majeure event occurs, the chair may rule the meeting
temporarily suspended and announce a time when, in view of the
circumstances, the meeting will be resumed. If the meeting place cannot be
further used and not all of the items (including extempore motions) on the
meeting agenda have been addressed, the shareholders' meeting may ratify a
resolution to resume the meeting at another place. The shareholders' meeting
may, in accordance with the provisions of Article 182 of the Company Act, be
resolved to be postponed or resumed within five days.
Article 19 Disclosure of Information for Video Conference

disclose the voting results of each motion and election results on the video
conference platform of the shareholders' meeting immediately after the close of
