Appendix 1

2025 Business Report

Amidst the impact of the US government’s reciprocal tariffs and global economic fluctuations, Taiwan’s economy faced pressures from geopolitical uncertainties in 2025. However, overall growth momentum remained stable, boosted by the AI investment boom and the recovery of the technology industry, leading to an economic growth rate of 7.37%. However, this economic growth was overly concentrated on technological exports, creating a sharp contrast between the booming overall economy and declining domestic consumption. Looking ahead to 2026, Taiwan's economic landscape will continue to face pressure from the business environment due to global policy changes and supply chain resilience concerns. The Chung-Hua Institution for Economic Research (CIER) has forecast Taiwan’s economic growth rate to reach up to 4.14%.

A review of 2025 shows that traditional industries will likely remain heavily affected by global trade policies, supply chain pressures, and declining demand. Together with China’s economic stagnation and excess global supply, the momentum behind an economic recovery has faltered. The pulp and paper industry is expected to perform similarly to the traditional manufacturing industry, and face an overall weak economic outlook. Looking back on the changes to pulp prices, prices in the first half of 2025 were supported by various factors, including high cost pressures and reduced production. However, the new reciprocal tariff policies implemented by the United States subsequently increased future uncertainty, leading to a significant decline in pulp prices. Market demand remained weak until the end of the year, when pulp prices finally reversed their decline with signs of a slight recovery. In the face of increasingly strict international environmental regulations, and as customers place a growing emphasis on sustainable products, pulp and paper products made from sustainable fiber materials have carved out an increasingly defined position in the industry. Chung Hwa Pulp Corporation continues to promote process improvements and increase energy use efficiency, enhancing our environmental management practices and steadily advancing towards a green manufacturing system.

Chung Hwa Pulp Corporation's consolidated operating income for 2025 amounted to approximately NT$18.77 billion, a decrease of about NT$2 billion from NT$20.77 billion in 2024. The net loss after tax attributable to the Company in 2025 was approximately NT$610 million. 363,710 metric tons of pulp were produced in 2025. Of this total, 241,607 metric tons were consumed internally, while the remaining volume was sold externally, including 64,749 metric tons of pulp sales. 371,726 metric tons of paper were produced for the year. 189,088 metric tons of paper were sold domestically, and 231,379 metric tons were sold through external sales, totaling 420,467 metric tons. 110,758 metric tons of cardboard were produced for the year. 111,810 metric tons of cardboard were sold domestically,


and 28,062 metric tons were sold through external sales, totaling 139,872 metric tons.

Looking back on 2025, Chung Hwa Pulp Corporation has continued to actively adjust our green products portfolio, and made further environmental contributions this year by investing NT$3 billion into constructing new high-efficiency waste-to-biomass energy power generation facilities. This has significantly improved green power generation efficiency, and marks an important step towards our ultimate goal of creating a self-sufficient green energy system capable of powering our entire plant facility, producing zero emissions. At the same time, CHP has leveraged our advantages in the pulp and paper circular economy to collaborate with Taiwanese educational materials publishers on promoting book recycling programs, where used textbooks and reference books are transformed into recycled paperboard. This cardboard is later reused in teaching materials provided to elementary schools, giving students the opportunity to experience how resource recycling can be carried out in the real world by integrating book recycling into environmental education. By simultaneously developing green energy infrastructure and incorporating recycled products into our business operations, CHP has gradually built a low-carbon circular economy system extending from energy to production and educational applications. This has not only enhanced our green manufacturing operations and use of recycled materials, but also fulfills our dual commitments to environmental responsibility and community education. Additionally, in order to speed up the utilization of the Company's assets and strengthen our financial structure, the Audit Committee and Board of Directors each passed resolutions in November to sell part of the idle land and plant buildings at the Guanyin plant area originally leased to a related party, E Ink Holdings Inc. These assets were sold to E Ink Holdings Inc. pursuant to the Procedures for Transactions with Related Parties for a transaction price of NT$1.33 billion. A gain of approximately NT$580 million was recognized from the transaction as disposal of investment property.

The Company has always focused on the 3Rs (Recycle/Reclaim/Regenerate) as a core strategy. We have established an integrated production system from forest to pulp to paper, and gradually built a comprehensive sustainable and circular management system, extending sustainability concepts to the specialty materials industry and promoting diverse applications of circular economy systems. CHP has long regarded sustainable development as a core business value. We have adhered to a people-oriented philosophy, and strove to strike a balance between corporate growth, mutual social benefits, and environmental protection. We are also committed to creating long-term mutual value for our shareholders, employees, and stakeholders. Looking ahead to the future, CHP will focus on green energy, green manufacturing, and green products as our main areas of development, while maintaining stable business operations. We aim to continue reducing the environmental impact of our manufacturing processes, enhance the connection between industry and the natural environment, and make steady progress towards our sustainable vision of creating mutual benefits for the Company, society, and the environment.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Directors and the Shareholders
Chung Hwa Pulp Corporation

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Chung Hwa Pulp Corporation (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the "Group") which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the consolidated statements 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 significant accounting policies (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, 2025 and 2024, 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 (FSC) 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 Matter

Key audit matter is the matter that, in our professional judgment, was of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. The matter was 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 the matter.

The key audit matter identified in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 is as follows:

Estimation of Expected Credit Loss of Accounts Receivable

The accounts receivable of the Group is material in amount. In consideration of the business volume, the recoverability of accounts receivable is not only subject to each customer's financial

14


condition but also management’s estimation and judgment. Therefore, the estimation of expected credit loss recognized on accounts receivable was identified as a key audit matter.

The audit procedures that we performed in respect of the above key audit matter included the following:

  1. We obtained the reports of impaired receivables impairment and assessed the reasonableness of the methodology and data used in the reports.
  2. We tested the receivables aging schedule and reviewed the calculation of expected credit loss for reasonableness of the recognized expected credit loss on receivables.
  3. We tested the recoverability of receivables by analyzing overdue accounts and by verifying cash receipts in the subsequent period. For a receivable that was past due but not yet received, we assessed the reasonableness of the expected credit loss based on the customer’s payment history, customer’s credit policy control and tracking of overdue receivables.

Other Matter

We have also audited the parent company only financial statements of Chung Hwa Pulp Corporation as of and for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, 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 the 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 liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance, including 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.

15


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 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. 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.

  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 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 statements 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 the matter that was of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, and is therefore the key audit matter. We describe the matter 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

16


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 audits resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Shiow-Ming Shue and Shu-Chuan Yeh.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Directors and the Shareholders
Chung Hwa Pulp Corporation

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying parent company only financial statements of Chung Hwa Pulp Corporation (the "Company") which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the parent company only financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies (collectively referred to as the "parent company only financial statements").

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, 2025 and 2024, 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 Engagement 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 Matter

Key audit matter is the matter that, in our professional judgment, was of most significance in our audit of the parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. The matter was 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 the matter.

The key audit matter identified in the parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 is as follows:

Estimation of Expected Credit Loss of Accounts Receivable

The accounts receivable of the Company is material in amount. In consideration of the business volume, the recoverability of accounts receivable is not only subject to each customer's financial condition but also management's estimation and judgment. Therefore, the estimation of expected credit loss recognized on accounts receivable was identified as a key audit matter.

24


The audit procedures that we performed in respect of the above key audit matter included the following:

  1. We obtained the reports of impaired receivables impairment and assessed the reasonableness of the methodology and data used in the reports.
  2. We tested the receivables aging schedule and reviewed the calculation of expected credit loss for reasonableness of the recognized expected credit loss on receivables.
  3. We tested the recoverability of receivables by analyzing overdue accounts and by verifying cash receipts in the subsequent period. For a receivable that was past due but not yet received, we assessed the reasonableness of the expected credit loss based on the receipt history, credit policy control and tracking of overdue receivables.

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 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 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 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 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

25


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.

  1. 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.

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

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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 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 statements 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 the matter that was of most significance in the audit of the parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, and is therefore the key audit matter. We describe the matter 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.

A shareholder proposal that urges the Corporation to promote public interests or fulfill its social responsibilities may still be included in the list of proposals to be discussed at a regular meeting of shareholders by the Board of Directors. In addition, when the circumstances of any subparagraph of Article 172-1, Paragraph 4 of the Company Act apply to a proposal put forward by a shareholder, the board of directors may exclude it from the agenda.

Prior to the book closure date before a regular shareholders meeting is held, this Corporation shall publicly

36


announce that it will receive shareholder proposals in writing or by way of electronic transmission, and the location and time period for their submission; the period for submission of shareholder proposals may not be less than 10 days. Shareholder-submitted proposals are limited to 300 words. Proposals containing more than 300 words will not be included in the meeting agenda. The shareholder making the proposal shall be present in person or by proxy at the regular shareholders meeting and take part in discussion of the proposal. Prior to the date for issuance of notice of a shareholders meeting, this Corporation shall inform the shareholders who submitted proposals of the proposal screening results, and shall list in the meeting notice the proposals that conform to the provisions of this article. At the shareholders meeting the board of directors shall explain the reasons for exclusion of any shareholder proposals not included in the agenda.

Article 4. For each shareholders meeting, a shareholder may appoint a proxy to attend the meeting by providing the proxy form issued by this Corporation and stating the scope of the proxy's authorization.

A shareholder may issue only one proxy form and appoint only one proxy for any given shareholders meeting, and shall deliver the proxy form to this Corporation before 5 days before the date of the shareholders meeting. When duplicate proxy forms are delivered, the one received earliest shall prevail unless a declaration is made to cancel the previous proxy appointment.

After a proxy form has been delivered to this Corporation, if the shareholder intends to attend the meeting in person or to exercise voting rights by correspondence or electronically, a written notice of proxy cancellation shall be submitted to this Corporation before 2 business days before the meeting date. If the cancellation notice is submitted after that time, votes cast at the meeting by the proxy shall prevail.

If the proxy has already been delivered to this Company and the shareholder decides he/she wishes to attend the meeting via video conferencing, the concerned shareholder should notify this Company in writing two days prior to the shareholders' meeting to rescind the notice for proxy. If the cancellation notice is not submitted by the deadline, votes cast at the meeting by the proxy shall prevail.

Article 5. The venue for a shareholders meeting shall be the premises of this Corporation, 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. Full consideration shall be given to the opinions of the independent directors with respect to the place and time of the meeting.

When this Company holds a shareholders' meeting via video conferencing, the place of meeting shall not be subject to the limitations of the preceding paragraph.

Article 6. This Company shall specify in its shareholders' meeting notices the time during which attendance registrations for shareholders, solicitors and proxies (collectively "shareholders") will be accepted, the place to register for attendance, and other matters for attention.

The time during which shareholder attendance registrations will be accepted, as stated in the preceding paragraph, shall be at least 30 minutes prior to the time the meeting commences. The place at which attendance registrations are accepted shall be clearly marked and a sufficient number of suitable personnel assigned to handle the registrations. For virtual shareholders' meetings, shareholders may begin to register on the virtual meeting platform 30 minutes before the meeting starts. Shareholders completing registration will be deemed as attend the shareholders' meeting in person.

Shareholders shall attend shareholders' meetings based on attendance cards, sign-in cards, or other certificates of attendance. This Company may not arbitrarily add requirements for other documents beyond those showing eligibility to attend presented by shareholders. Solicitors soliciting proxy forms shall also bring identification documents for verification.

This Corporation shall furnish the attending shareholders with an attendance book to sign, or attending shareholders may hand in a sign-in card in lieu of signing in.

This Corporation shall furnish attending shareholders with the meeting agenda book, annual report, attendance card, speaker's slips, voting slips, and other meeting materials. Where there is an election of directors, pre-printed ballots shall also be furnished.

  2. Actions to be taken if the virtual meeting platform or participation in the virtual meeting is obstructed due to natural disasters, accidents, or other force majeure events, at least covering the following:

(2). Shareholders not having registered to attend the affected virtual shareholders' meeting shall not attend the postponed or resumed session.
(3). In case of a hybrid shareholders' meeting, when the virtual meeting cannot be continued, if the total number of shares represented at the meeting, after deducting those represented by shareholders attending the virtual shareholders' meeting, meets the minimum legal requirement for a shareholders' meeting, then the shareholders' meeting shall continue. The shares represented by shareholders attending the virtual meeting shall be counted towards the total number of shares represented by shareholders present at the meeting, and the shareholders attending the virtual meeting shall be deemed abstaining from voting on all proposals on meeting agenda of that shareholders' meeting.
(4). Actions to be taken if the outcome of all proposals have been announced and extraordinary motion has not been carried out.
3. To convene a virtual shareholders' meeting, appropriate alternative measures available to shareholders with difficulties in attending a virtual shareholders' meeting shall be specified

Article 7. Shareholders meetings that are convened by the Chairperson shall be chaired by the Chairperson. If the Chairperson is unable to perform such duties due to a leave of absence or any other reason, the Chairperson may appoint one of the directors to act on the Chairperson's behalf. If the Chairperson does not appoint a delegate, one shall be elected by the directors from among them.

If the Meeting is chaired by a director other than the Chairperson, it shall be one who is familiar with the Company's business and financial status and that had been appointed more than six months prior. The same shall be true for a representative of a juristic person director that serves as chairperson.

It is advisable that shareholders meetings convened by the board of directors be chaired by the Chairperson of the Board in person, attended by a majority of directors, at least one independent director 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 someone having the right to convene a meeting, but who is not a member of the Board of Directors, the said person shall chair the meeting. If more than one person has the right to convene the meeting, one shall be elected to chair the meeting.

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 1 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 Company shall keep records of shareholder registration, sign-in, check-in, questions raised, votes cast and results of votes counted by this Company, and make an uninterrupted audio and video recording of 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 Company 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.

38


Where a virtual shareholders’ meeting is convened, this Company 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, and the shares checked in on the virtual meeting platform, plus the number of shares whose voting rights are exercised by correspondence or electronically.

The chairperson shall call the meeting to order at the appointed meeting time, and announce related information including the number of shares without voting rights and the number of shares in attendance at the same time. However, when the attending shareholders do not represent a majority of the total number of issued shares, the chairperson may announce a postponement, provided that no more than two such postponements, for a combined total of no more than 1 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 chairperson shall declare the meeting adjourned. In the event of a virtual shareholders’ meeting, this Company 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 1 month. In the event of a virtual shareholders’ meeting, shareholders intending to attend the meeting online shall re-register with this Company 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 chairperson 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 decided by the board of directors. Relevant motions (including extraordinary motions and amendments to the original motion) should be voted on on a case-by-case basis. The meeting shall proceed in the order set by the agenda, which may not be changed without a resolution of the shareholders’ meeting. However, extraordinary motions should be proposed within the scope permitted by law, within the time limit when the chairperson puts the matter before all shareholders present at the meeting, and can only be included in the agenda after receiving approval from the attending shareholders in accordance with legal procedures.

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.

Unless by the resolution of the shareholders’ meeting, the chairperson may not declare the meeting ended until all items on the agenda (including extraordinary motions) arranged in the preceding two paragraphs have been completed. The shareholders cannot designate any other person as chairperson and continue the meeting in the same or another place after the meeting is adjourned. If the chairperson 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 chairperson in accordance with statutory procedures, by agreement of a majority of the votes represented by the attending shareholders, and then continue the meeting.

The chairperson 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 chairperson is of the opinion that a proposal has been discussed sufficiently to put it to a vote, the chairperson may announce the discussion closed, call for a vote, and arrange an adequate voting time.

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 chairperson.

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 chairperson, 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 chairperson 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 chairperson and the shareholder that has the floor; the chairperson shall stop any violation.

39


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 chairperson may respond in person or direct relevant personnel to respond.

Where a virtual shareholders’ meeting is convened, shareholders attending the virtual meeting may raise questions in writing on the virtual meeting platform from the chairperson declaring the meeting open until the chairperson 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 provisions of Paragraphs 1 to 5 do not apply.

As long as questions 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 on 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 3 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 to shares or are deemed non-voting shares under Article 179, paragraph 2 of the Company Act.

When the Corporation holds a shareholders meeting, it may allow the shareholders to exercise voting rights by correspondence or electronic means. The method of exercise shall be specified in the shareholders meeting notice. Shareholders exercising voting rights by correspondence or electronic means will be deemed to have attended the meeting in person. However, shareholders will be deemed to have waived their rights with respect to extraordinary motions and amendments to original proposals of that meeting.

A shareholder intending to exercise voting rights by correspondence or electronic means under the preceding paragraph shall deliver a written declaration of intent to the Corporation 2 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 or online, a written declaration of intent to retract the voting rights already exercised under the preceding paragraph shall be made known to this Company, 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 not submitted by the deadline, 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 the 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 chairperson or a person designated by the chairperson 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 chairperson 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 chairperson, provided that all monitoring personnel shall be shareholders of this Corporation.

40


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 Company convenes a virtual shareholders’ meeting, after the chairperson declares the meeting open, shareholders attending the meeting online shall cast votes on proposals and elections on the virtual meeting platform before the chairperson 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 chairperson announces the voting session ends, and results of votes and elections shall be announced immediately.

When this Company 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 by the deadline, 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.

Article 14. The election of directors or supervisors at a shareholders’ meeting shall be held in accordance with the applicable election and appointment rules adopted by this Company, and the voting results shall be announced on-site immediately, including the names of those elected as directors and supervisors and the numbers of votes with which they were elected, and the names of directors and supervisors not elected and number of votes they received.

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 1 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.

Article 15. Matters relating to the resolutions of a shareholders meeting shall be recorded in the meeting minutes. The meeting minutes shall be signed or sealed by the chairperson of the meeting and a copy distributed to each shareholder within 20 days after the conclusion of the meeting. The meeting minutes may be produced and distributed in electronic form.

This Corporation may distribute the meeting minutes of the preceding paragraph by means of a public announcement made through the MOPS.

The meeting minutes shall accurately record the year, month, day, and place of the meeting, the chairperson's full name, the methods by which resolutions were adopted, and a summary of the deliberations and their results (including statistical weights). When directors are elected, the number of votes for each candidate should be disclosed. The minutes shall be kept permanently throughout the life of the Corporation.

On the day of a shareholders’ meeting, this Company shall compile in the prescribed format a statistical statement of the number of shares obtained by solicitors through solicitation, the number of shares represented by proxies, and the number of shares represented by shareholders attending the meeting by correspondence or electronic means, and shall make an express disclosure of the same at the place of the shareholders’ meeting. In the event of a virtual shareholders’ meeting, this Company 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.

During this Company’s virtual shareholders’ meeting, when the meeting is called to order, the total number of shares represented at the meeting shall be disclosed on the virtual meeting platform.
