Appendix I
Chung Jye Investment Holding Co., Ltd. 2025 Business Report
I. Introduction:
The footwear industry began to face tariff pressures from the United States in the early second quarter of 2025, resulting in structural impacts on the industry supply chain. The configuration of production bases established in the past has now become a key factor affecting companies' operating costs. According to the 2024 World Footwear Yearbook, the United States remains the world's largest importer, accounting for 17.4% of total global footwear imports, equivalent to 2,155 million pairs, and thus continues to be a highly important market for brands and manufacturers. Footwear sold in the United States is primarily imported from countries such as China, Vietnam, and Indonesia. However, following the U.S.-China trade tensions, the share of imports from China declined to 36.2% by 2024, while Vietnam's share increased to 32.2%. This shift indicates that manufacturers are reallocating production capacity to countries with relatively lower tariff burdens, thereby influencing industry deployment strategies.
Following the compounding impact of tariffs, brands have faced rising costs. In the first half of 2025, influenced by consumer expectations, the U.S. market saw widespread price discounting across distribution channels to sustain market share and marketing momentum, as well as to clear existing inventory accumulated in the prior year. At the same time, ongoing promotional activities led consumers to reassess the credibility of discounts, resulting in more cautious spending behavior. Brands have also recognized that, despite rising costs, price increases for footwear products must be approached cautiously to maintain market share. In addition, economic conditions in the Chinese market have weakened compared to previous years, leading to changes in consumer behavior. Brand customers have adopted a more conservative approach to order placement and have responded by implementing stricter inventory control mechanisms. In response to U.S. tariff developments, the Company reallocated production lines for products sold to the United States to non-China manufacturing bases, resulting in a decline in capacity utilization in China. The subsequent reconfiguration of production processes and the learning curve associated with workforce adjustments also affected the Company's gross margin performance in 2025.
In response to these trends and to mitigate country-of-origin risks, the Company has actively expanded its overseas production bases, with the aim of establishing a multi-country manufacturing network across the Group that serves multiple brands, thereby creating a more flexible supply chain and enhancing its resilience. In 2025, the Company commenced new production capacity in India and Bac Kan Province in Vietnam, and initiated investment plans to establish manufacturing facilities in Indonesia. These initiatives are expected to effectively diversify risks arising from geopolitical, economic, and tariff barriers. In addition, through a "local-to-local" approach, the Company has enhanced real-time supply chain production management and shortened lead times, thereby supporting more agile responses in research and development and sales activities.
In addition, the Company has keenly recognized the impact of reciprocal tariffs on the external environment and has launched the "StridePlus" initiative to optimize internal management and enhance efficiency, while introducing automation and other process improvements to strictly control costs. In terms of human resources, the Company implemented organizational restructuring, enhanced talent training, attracted high-caliber talent, and built a lean talent pipeline. At the same time, to mitigate fluctuations in production utilization rates, the Company actively expanded its market reach and secured new international brand customers. Initial results have been favorable, with shipments commencing in the fourth quarter of 2025.
The Company reported revenue of NT$21.671 billion in 2025, a decrease of NT$5.316 billion from NT$26.987 billion in 2024, representing a year-on-year decline of 19.70%. Overall net profit
after tax totaled NT$557 million in 2025, compared to NT$1.821 billion in 2024, a decrease of NT$1.264 billion, or 69.41%. Profitability in 2025 declined due to factors including lower capacity utilization, rising labor costs, and the learning curve associated with new production lines. Looking ahead to 2026, the Company aims to enhance profitability through optimizing process efficiency via intelligent management, strengthening talent performance management, onboarding new brand customers, and adjusting its product mix.
The Company's production sites are located in Guangdong, Jiangxi, and Henan Provinces in China and Hai Duang, Ninh Binh, and Tuyen Quang Provinces in North Vietnam. In 2025, the ratio of production capacity in Mainland China and Vietnam was 57% and 43%, respectively. Regarding the ratio of sales regions (destination designated by brand customers) to operating income, American and Chinese regions are the main sales locations, accounting for approximately 35% and 32%, respectively. In addition to existing brand customers, the Company has actively developed new international brands to inject new growth momentum into its operations.
Despite the uncertainties in the international political and economic situation, there are infinite possibilities hidden in it. The Company upholds a culture of heritage, humility, learning, and a spirit of continuous improvement, and with the collective efforts of all Group employees, continues to advance toward the goals of innovation, high quality, diversification, and sustainability. We are jointly committed to strengthening cost and risk management, while fostering talent development and organizational continuity to build a strong and resilient Chung Jye management team. Leveraging this resilience, the Company collaborates closely with brand customers to navigate challenges and achieve mutual growth. It is firmly believed that, through the continued dedication and efforts of the Chung Jie team, the Company will be able to move forward against headwinds with perseverance and lay a solid foundation for future growth.

Overseas subsidiaries, under the coordination of relevant departments at each plant, have carried out initiatives in environmental, health, and safety management, social responsibility, and community outreach, including support for disadvantaged groups and participation in projects led by brand customers to establish water tower and purification systems in remote areas.
In addition, the Company attaches great importance to and pays attention to the rights and interests of employees and the safety of employees and has established a friendly, diversified, fair and inclusive working environment. Overseas plants of the Group adopt sustainable operation and development as the target and promote various energy conservation and carbon reduction plans. The solar power panel green energy program was initiated at Jiangxi Plant and Ninh Binh Plant, and we invested in reduction equipment at Jiangxi Plant. The Company has actively implemented green energy and environmental protection initiatives, energy conservation and carbon reduction measures, and resource recycling practices. It has also recently focused on issues related to biodiversity conservation and ecological diversity. The Company will continue to take concrete actions to contribute to environmental sustainability.

- Risk assessment based on the principle of materiality
Prepare analysis according to the principles of materiality of the Sustainability Report, communicate with internal and external stakeholders, compile the assessment data from departments and subsidiaries of the Group to evaluate the establishment of material ESG issues, and effectively identify risk management measures for measurement, assessment, monitoring, and control to minimize the impacts of relevant risks.
Relevant management measures based on the assessment of risks of concern are as follows:
| Type of risk | Possible risk | Description of risk | Management measure |
|---|---|---|---|
| Market risk | Changes in international tariffs | The main export markets (i.e., the U.S. and Europe) impose tariffs on the production base (i.e., China and Vietnam) or cancel the GSP to reduce price competitiveness. | Strengthen supply chain resilience, continue expanding our global production deployment, and flexibly allocate production bases to meet brand orders, thereby enhancing supply chain flexibility and reducing supply costs. |
| Risks associated with major investments and plant expansions | Labor markets and labor issues around the world | While Chung Jye Group continues to promote its global deployment strategy and expand its production sites, potential risks may affect the progress of plant construction due to | To minimize possible risks brought by plant expansion, the Group has established cross-department evaluation and prudent decision-making mechanisms, including regulation and policy evaluations, risk |

| differences in local regulations, administrative procedures, and review standards. Secondly, the construction of a new plant involves numerous stages, including construction management, equipment procurement, project quality control, and labor recruitment. Any change or delay could lead to cost overruns or schedule delays. In addition, if the location of the new site has insufficient infrastructure, unstable labor supply, uneven policy support, or geopolitical changes, it may increase uncertainties for the plant expansion plan. | identification and cost calculation. Meanwhile, it grasps the latest policies and administrative information through professional external consultants and local partners. During the plant expansion period, we adopt construction progress follow-up, cost control, and quality acceptance systems to ensure the new plant can be completed in due course and successfully be put into operation, and, in turn, support the long-term growth strategy of the Group. | ||
| Supply chain and raw material risks | Raw material quality abnormalities | For logistics and raw material procurement operations of the plant, we continue to identify and control risks of the supply chain, including raw material price fluctuations, insufficient supply stability, delays in delivery terms, unstable quality, and other risks. Meanwhile, we strictly control non-compliance with ESG, violations of the code of conduct by suppliers, deficiencies in labor rights and interests, inappropriate environmental management, anti-corruption compliance loopholes, and other potential risks. | Based on the Company's supplier procurement and payment cycle, we have adopted measures for supplier evaluation, regular audits, process review, and the establishment of backup suppliers to reduce the risk of supply chain disruption and compliance conflicts, ensuring stable and compliant procurement activities and compliance with sustainability, international human rights, and ethical management. |
| Information risks | Network attacks and business secret protection | 1. External network attacks: Include ransomware, social engineering (i.e., phishing emails), and malicious software implantation, with the intent to disrupt system operations or steal data. | |

| • Role-based access control: Access to data is controlled based on departmental roles, ensuring that employees can only access information relevant to their work. | |||
| • Control over Internet access: Internet access permissions are classified to reduce the risk of accidental visits to malicious websites. | |||
| • Protection of customer data: Establish policies for customer data preservation and destruction to prevent the leakage or theft of personal data. | |||

- Status of sustainable development implementation
(I) Environment
By aligning with international trends and implementing green processes, we are committed to environmental sustainability in our processes. We collaborate with brands to develop eco-friendly materials and reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions, while optimizing production processes, investing in automated equipment, and applying environmentally friendly materials to enhance green technology and hardware. The China Plant obtained the Zero Waste to Landfill Management System - Gold Certificate in 2025.
To realize Chung Jye Group's goal to achieve 50% of green energy consumption by 2025, it continues to install solar power equipment in China and Vietnam Plants. Also, the China Plant obtained the ISO14001 certification in 2024, and the Vietnam Plant also obtained the certification in 2025.
(II) Society
We promote employees' well-being, contribute to social responsibility, and are committed to
safeguarding employees' rights. We have established trade unions for each plant and implemented a robust grievance mechanism to encourage employees to voice their opinions and work collaboratively with the Company for mutual benefits. We also provide a safe and healthy working environment with a focus on occupational safety. The China Plant obtained the ISO 45001 certification in 2024. In 2025, the Vietnam Plant obtained the SLCP verification, reducing the time and resources wasted on responding to repeated audits. This allowed the Plant to use such time and resources in improving labor working conditions, which provides advantages for it to be selected as a qualified supplier by international brands. In addition, the China Plant obtained the ISO 9001 certification in 2025, ensuring consistent product quality, building customer trust and improving corporate efficiency. Standard operating procedures (SOPs) helped reduce costs related to waste and malfunctions. Driven by its corporate philosophy of "taking from society and giving back to society," Chung Jye Group organizes employee and community care initiatives at its various sites based on local needs. These initiatives include plans for visiting impoverished employee families and funding education, safety, children, and other diverse aspects.
(III) Governance
The Company introduced digital management, emphasized risk prevention, and valued corporate governance mechanisms. A demonstration plant was established in 2024 to implement full digital management and actively develop and expand the digital systems of Chung Jye Group. An information security team was established to implement information security management update planning, deepen risk control capabilities, and build corporate operational resilience.
Chung Jye Group passed its initial listing application in 2024 and was listed on March 7, 2025. It hopes to reinforce the corporate governance of the Board, improve market competitiveness, and future promote its sustainable management strategy after listing to expand its global deployment, solidify long-term and stable cooperating relationships with brand customers, and create long-term shareholder value.
- Conclusion
According to the "Corporate Governance 3.0 – Sustainable Development Roadmap" of the FSC, the Company adopted five major themes, including "improve functions of the Board and facilitate sustainable management," "provide information transparency and facilitate sustainable management," "enhance communication with stakeholders and create healthy interaction channels," "connect to international specifications and take the lead in stewardship," and "deepen the sustainable governance culture of the Company and provide diverse products," as the core to continue optimizing various implementation indicators in the hope of improving the corporate value of the Company and become the benchmark among international corporate citizens.

Independent Auditors' Report
The Board of Directors and shareholders of Chung Jye Investment Holding Co., Ltd.
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Chung Jye Investment Holding Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries (Chung Jye Group) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity, consolidated statements of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the notes to consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. In our review, the accompanying consolidated financial statements statements have been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, Interpretations, and Interpretive Bulletins recognized and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission, and fairly present the consolidated financial position of Chung Jye Group as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and its consolidated financial performance and consolidated cash flows for the years from January 1 to December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Basis for the Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards 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 Chung Jye Group in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants of the Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that sufficient and appropriate audit evidence has been obtained in order to serve as the basis for presenting the audit opinion.
Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the 2025 consolidated financial statements of Chung Jye Group. 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.
- 23 -
The key audit matters of the 2025 consolidated financial statements of Chung Jye Group are described as follows:
Timing for recognizing the income from export sales
The main business of Chung Jye Group is the production and sale of leather shoes and sports and leisure outdoor shoes. The sales patterns are divided into domestic sales and export sales. The counterparties of export sales are located in many regions around the world. The transaction conditions with different customers may differ.
Regarding the export sales income of Chung Jye Group, sales income is recognized when the transaction conditions are achieved, and the control over products is transferred to purchasers based on the agreed transaction conditions with individual customers. As partial export sales transactions have longer transportation time, and the transaction conditions agreed upon with particular customers may result in the involvement of human judgment in the income recognition procedures, which may cause sales income not to be recorded in the accurate period. Therefore, we include the accuracy of the timing of the recognition of export sales income with particular transaction conditions in the key audit matters for the year.
The main audit procedures that we performed for the abovementioned timing of sales income recognition are as follows:
- Understand and evaluate the operating procedures and internal control system for the recognition of sales income, and test the effectiveness of such control.
- Perform cut-off tests for sales transactions with particular customers within a certain period before and after the balance sheet date, including verifying the transaction conditions and customs declarations of such transactions, and checking the shipping date to confirm that income recognition is recorded in the appropriate period.
- Obtain the shipping statements summarized for the particular period manually for examination, sample and verify relevant certificates to confirm whether the adjustments to the timing of income recognition are accurate.
Responsibilities of the Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements
The 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 IFRSs, IASs, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission, and to maintain internal controls necessary for the preparation of financial statements to ensure that the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the management is responsible for assessing Chung Jye 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 Chung Jye Group or cease operations or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance, including the Audit Committee, are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of Chung Jye Group.
- 24 -
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. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance. However, the auditing conducted in accordance with the auditing standards of the Republic of China cannot guarantee that it will be able to detect material misstatements in the consolidated financial statements. Misstatement can arise from fraud or error. If the individual or aggregate amount of the misstatement can reasonably be expected to affect the economic decisions made by users of the consolidated financial statements, they are considered material.
We exercise professional skepticism during the audit in accordance with the auditing standards. We also performed the following tasks:
- 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.
- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not to express an opinion on the effectiveness of the internal control of Chung Jye Group.
- Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
- 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 Chung Jye Group's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that 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 Chung Jye Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
- 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.
- Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the parent company's only financial information of the entities or business activities within the Chung Jye Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision, and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with
- 25 -
relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable (including relevant protection measures).
From matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the 2025 consolidated financial statements of Chung Jye Group and arethereforekey 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.

2. Power to Issue Shares
2.1 Subject to Applicable Law, the Articles and any resolution of the Members to the contrary, and without prejudice to any special rights previously conferred on the holders of any existing shares or class of shares, the Board shall have the power to issue any unissued shares of the Company on such terms and conditions as it may determine and any shares or class of shares (including the issue or grant of options, warrants and other rights, renounceable or otherwise in respect of shares) may be issued with such preferred, deferred or other special rights or such restrictions, whether in regard to dividend, voting, return of capital, or otherwise as the Company may, subject to Article 6.1, by Ordinary Resolution of the Members prescribe, provided that no share shall be issued at a discount except in accordance with the Act and the Applicable Public Company Rules.
2.2 Unless otherwise provided in the Articles, the issue of new shares of the Company shall be approved by a majority of the Directors at a meeting attended by two-thirds or more of the total number of the Directors. The issue of new shares shall at all times be subject to the sufficiency of the authorised share capital of the Company.
2.3 After the application for listing in the ROC has been approved by the TWSE, as applicable, where the Company increases its issued share capital by issuing new shares for cash consideration in the ROC, the Company shall allocate 10% of the total amount of the new shares to be issued, for offering in the ROC to the public ("Public Offering Portion") unless it is not necessary or appropriate, as determined by the FSC or the TWSE for the Company to conduct the aforementioned public offering or otherwise provided by Applicable Law. However, if a percentage higher than the aforementioned 10% is resolved by the Members in a general meeting by Ordinary Resolution to be offered, the percentage determined by such resolution shall prevail and shares corresponding to such percentage shall be reserved as Public Offering Portion. The Company may also reserve no more than five per cent (5%) of such new shares for subscription by the employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries (the "Employee Subscription Portion"). The Company may prohibit such employees from transferring the shares so subscribed within a certain period; provided, however, that such

period cannot be more than two years.
2.4 Unless otherwise resolved by the Members in general meeting by Ordinary Resolution, where the Company increases its issued share capital by issuing new shares for cash consideration pursuant to Article 2.3 hereof, after allocation of the Public Offering Portion, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any percentage in excess of 10% of the total amount of the new shares to be issued for offering in the ROC to the public as resolved by the Members in general meeting be offered pursuant to Article 2.3, and the Employee Subscription Portion pursuant to Article 2.3 hereof, the Company shall make a public announcement and notify each Member that he is entitled to exercise a pre-emptive right to purchase his pro rata portion of the remaining new shares, to be issued in the capital increase for cash consideration. The Company shall state in such announcement and notices to the Members the procedures for exercising such pre-emptive rights. Where an exercise of the pre-emptive right may result in fractional entitlement of a Member, the entitlements (including fractional entitlements) of two or more Members may be combined to jointly subscribe for one or more whole new shares in the name of a single Member, subject to compliance with the Applicable Public Company Rules. If the total number of the new shares to be issued has not been fully subscribed for by the Members within the prescribed period, the Company may consolidate such shares into the public offering tranche or offer any un-subscribed new shares to a specific person or persons in such manner as is consistent with the Applicable Public Company Rules.
If any person who has subscribed the new shares (by exercising the aforesaid pre-emptive right of Members or subscribing the Public Offering Portion or the Employee Subscription Portion) fails to pay when due any amount of the subscription price in relation to such newly-issued shares within the payment period as determined by the Company, the Company shall fix a period of no less than one month and call for payment of the subscription price or the Company may declare a forfeiture of such subscription. No forfeiture of such subscription shall be declared as against any such person unless the amount due thereon shall remain unpaid for such period after such demand has been made. Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding sentence, forfeiture of the subscription may be declared without the demand process if the payment period for subscription price set by the Company is one month or longer. Upon forfeiture of the subscription, the shares remaining unsubscribed to shall be offered for subscription in such manner as is consistent with the Applicable Public Company Rules.
2.5 Subject to the Applicable Law, the Company may issue new shares with restricted rights ("Restricted Shares") to employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries with the sanction of a Supermajority Resolution provided that Article 2.3 hereof shall not apply in respect of the issue of such shares. For so long as the shares are or listed on the TWSE in the ROC, the terms of issue of Restricted Shares, including but not limited to the number of Restricted Shares so issued, issue price of Restricted Shares and other related matters shall be in accordance with the rules promulgated by the competent authority of securities of the ROC.
2.6 The pre-emptive right of employees under Article 2.3 and the pre-emptive right of Members under Article 2.4 shall not apply in the event that new shares are issued due to the following reasons or for the following purposes:
(a) in connection with a Merger, Spin-off, Share Swap, or pursuant to any reorganization of the Company;
(b) in connection with meeting the Company's obligations under share subscription wares.

2.9 Options, warrants or other similar instruments issued in accordance with Article 2.8 above are not transferable save by inheritance.
2.10 Directors of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be eligible for Restricted Shares pursuant to Article 2.5 hereof or the incentive programs pursuant to Article 2.8 hereof, provided that directors who are also employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries may subscribe for Restricted Shares or participate in an incentive program in their capacity as an employee and not as a director of the Company or its Subsidiaries.
2.11 The Company may enter into agreements with employees of the Company and/or the employees of its Subsidiaries in relation to the incentive program approved pursuant to Article 2.8 above, whereby employees may subscribe for, within a specific period, a specific number of the shares. The terms and conditions of such agreements shall be no less restrictive on the relevant employee than the terms specified in the applicable incentive program.

3.1 Subject to the Act, the Company is authorised to issue shares which are to be redeemed or are liable to be redeemed at the option of the Company or a Member.
3.2 The Company is authorised to make payments in respect of the redemption of its shares out of capital or out of any other account or fund authorised for this purpose in accordance with the Act.

3.5 For so long as the shares are listed on the TWSE in the ROC, subject to the provisions of the Applicable Law and the Articles, the Company may, upon approval by a majority of the Directors at a meeting attended by two-thirds or more of the total number of the Directors, purchase its own shares (including any redeemable shares) on such terms and in such manner as the Directors may determine and hold them as Treasury Shares in accordance with the Applicable Law PROVIDED THAT if any purchase of the Company's own shares from all the Members involves any immediate cancellation of shares of the Company, such repurchase of shares is subject to approval by the Members by way of an Ordinary Resolution and the number of shares of the Company to be cancelled shall be effected based on the then prevailing percentage of shareholding of all the Members as of the date of such cancellation on a pro rata basis (as rounded up to the nearest whole number as determined by the Directors), unless otherwise provided for in the Act or the Applicable Public Company Rules.
Upon approval by Members by way of an Ordinary Resolution to repurchase and cancel shares of the Company, the repurchase price may be paid in any manner authorised by the Act, including in cash or in kind, provided that where any repurchase price is to be paid in kind, the monetary equivalent value of such payment in kind shall be (a) assessed by an ROC certified public accountant before being submitted by the Board to the Members for approval as part of the Ordinary Resolution authorising the repurchase and cancellation of shares of the Company; and (b) agreed to individually by each Member who will be receiving the repurchase price in kind. Without prejudice to this Article 3.5, in the case of a repurchase of shares by the Company for purposes of changing the currency denomination of share capital of the Company, consent of the holders of the shares subject to such repurchase shall not be required.
3.6 In the event that the Company proposes to purchase any share listed on the TWSE in the ROC pursuant to the preceding Article, the resolution of the Board approving such proposal and the implementation thereof should be reported to the Members in the next general meeting in accordance with the Applicable Public Company Rules.

3.7 For so long as the shares are listed on the TWSE in the ROC, the Company is authorised to purchase any share listed on the TWSE in the ROC in accordance with the following manner of purchase:

(e) the purchase shall be at such time, at such price and on such other terms as determined and agreed by the Board in its sole discretion provided however that:
(i) such purchase transactions shall be in accordance with the applicable ROC securities laws and regulations and the Applicable Public Company Rules; and
(ii) such purchase transactions shall be in accordance with the Act.
3.8 Subject to Article 3.5 and the Applicable Public Company Rules, the redemption or repurchase price may be paid in any manner permissible under the Act as determined by the Board.
3.9 A delay in payment of the redemption price shall not affect the redemption but, in the case of a delay of more than thirty days, interest shall be paid for the period from the due date until actual payment at a rate which the Directors, after due enquiry, estimate to be representative of the rates being offered by banks holding “A” licenses (as defined in the Banks and Trust Companies Act (Revised) of the Cayman Islands) in the Cayman Islands for thirty day deposits in the same currency.
3.10 The Directors may exercise as they think fit the powers conferred on the Company by Section 37(5) of the Act (payment out of capital) but only if and to the extent that the redemption could not otherwise be made (or not without making a fresh issue of shares for this purpose).
3.11 Subject as aforesaid, the Directors may determine, as they think fit all questions that may arise concerning the manner in which the redemption of the shares shall or may be effected.
3.12 No share may be redeemed unless it is fully paid.
3.13 The Board may designate as Treasury Shares any of its shares that it purchases or redeems, or any shares surrendered to it, in accordance with the Applicable Law.

3.15 The Company shall be entered in the Register of Members as the holder of the Treasury Shares provided that:
(a) the Company shall not be treated as a Member for any purpose and shall not exercise any right in respect of the Treasury Shares, and any purported exercise of such a right shall be void; and
(b) a Treasury Share shall not be voted, directly or indirectly, at any meeting of the Company and shall not be counted in determining the total number of issued shares at any given time, whether for the purposes of the Articles or the Act.
3.16 After the Company purchases the shares listed on the TWSE in the ROC, any proposal to transfer the Treasury Shares to the employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries at a price below the average actual repurchase price must be approved by Special Resolution in the next general meeting and the items required by the Applicable Public Company Rules shall be specified in the notice of the general meeting and may not be proposed as an

9.1 Title to shares listed on the TWSE in the ROC may be evidenced and transferred in a manner consistent with the Applicable Public Company Rules (including through the book-entry system of the TDCC).
9.2 All transfers of shares which are in certificated form may be effected by an instrument of transfer in writing in any usual form or in any other form which the Board may approve and shall be executed by or on behalf of the transferor and, if the Board so requires, by or on behalf of the transferee. Without prejudice to the foregoing, the Board may also resolve, either generally or in any particular case, upon request by either the transferor or transferee, to accept mechanically executed transfers.
9.3 The Board may refuse to recognise any instrument of transfer in respect of shares in certificated form unless it is accompanied by the certificate in respect of the shares to which it relates and by such other evidence as the Board may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer.
9.4 The joint holders of any share may transfer such share to one or more of such joint holders, and the surviving holder or holders of any share previously held by them jointly with a deceased Member may transfer any such share to the executors or administrators of such deceased Member.
9.5 The Board may in its absolute discretion and without assigning any reason therefor refuse to register the transfer of a share in certificated form in the event such registration of transfer would (i) conflict with the Applicable Law; or (ii) conflict with the Memorandum and/or the Articles. If the Board refuses to register a transfer of any share, the Secretary shall, within three months after the date on which the transfer was lodged with the Company, send to the transferor and transferee notice of the refusal.

Nothing herein contained shall release the estate of a deceased joint holder from any liability in respect of any share which had been jointly held by such deceased Member with other persons. Subject to the provisions of Section 39 of the Act, for the purpose of this Article, legal personal representative means the executor or administrator of a deceased Member or such other person as the Board may, in its absolute discretion, decide as being properly authorised to deal with the shares of a deceased Member.
10.2 Any person becoming entitled to a share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of any Member may be registered as a Member upon such evidence as the Board may deem sufficient or may elect to nominate some person to be registered as a transferee of such share.
10.3 On the presentation of the evidence as the Board may require to prove the title of the transferor, the transferee shall be registered as a Member. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board shall, in any case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration or release

ORDINARY RESOLUTION, SPECIAL RESOLUTION AND SUPERMAJORITY RESOLUTION
11. Alteration of Capital
11.1 The Company may from time to time by Ordinary Resolution alter the conditions of its Memorandum to:

(b) consolidate and divide all or any of its share capital into shares of a larger amount than its existing shares;

(e) cancel any shares which, at the date of the passing of the resolution, have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person and diminish the amount of its share capital by the amount of the shares so cancelled.

class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class) may, whether or not the Company is being wound-up, be varied with the sanction of a Supermajority Resolution passed at a general meeting of the holders of the shares of the class. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any modification or alteration in the Articles is prejudicial to the preferential rights of any class of shares, such modification or alteration shall be adopted by a Special Resolution passed at a general meeting and shall also be adopted by a Supermajority Resolution passed at a separate meeting of Members of that class of shares. The rights conferred upon the holders of the shares of any class issued with preferred or other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class, be deemed to be varied by the creation or issue of further shares ranking pari passu therewith. To any such meeting all the provisions of the Articles relating to general meetings shall apply mutatis mutandis.
DIVIDENDS AND CAPITALISATION
14. Dividends
14.1 The Board may, subject to approval by the Members by way of Ordinary Resolution or, in the case of Article 12.3(a), Supermajority Resolution and subject to the Articles and any direction of the Company in general meeting, declare a dividend to be paid to the Members in proportion to the number of shares held by them, and such dividend may be paid in cash or shares.
14.2 Subject to the Applicable Law, no dividends or other distribution shall be paid except out of profits of the Company, realised or unrealised, out of share premium account or any reserve, fund or account as otherwise permitted by the Act. Except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any shares, all dividends and other distributions shall be paid according to the number of the shares that a Member holds. If any share is issued on terms providing that it shall rank for dividend as from a particular date, that share shall rank for dividends accordingly.
14.3 (Deleted)
14.4 Subject to the Act and this Article and except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any shares, the Company may distribute profits in accordance with a proposal for profits distribution approved by, in the case of dividend to be paid in cash, a majority of the Directors at a meeting attended by two-thirds or more of the total number of the Directors or, in the case of Article 12.3(a) or 12.5 (in the case of an issuance of new shares as bonus shares), Supermajority Resolution in the general meeting. After the Board approves the distribution of dividend in cash, the Board shall report such distribution in the next annual general meeting.
14.5 Upon the final settlement of the Company's accounts, if there is surplus profit (as defined below), the Company shall set aside no less than zero point one per cent (0.1%) and no more than three per cent (3%) as compensation to employees (the "Employees' Compensations") and no more than three per cent (3%) as remuneration for the Directors (excluding the Independent Directors). However, if the Company has accumulated losses, the Company shall reserve an amount thereof for making up the losses.
The Employees' Compensations referred to in the preceding paragraph may be distributed in the form of shares or in the form of cash, and may be distributed to employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries, whose qualification shall be determined by the Board.

Compensations and remuneration to the Directors shall be determined by a majority of the Directors at a meeting attended by two-thirds or more of the total number of Directors and submitted to the shareholders' meeting for report.
"Surplus profit" referred to above means the net profit before tax and for the avoidance of doubt, such amount is before any payment of compensation to employees and remuneration for the Directors.
14.6 The Company is in the growth stage. The Board shall prepare the dividend proposal by taking into account various factors it considers relevant including, but not limited to, the profit of the financial year, overall development, financial plans, capital need, projection of the industry and the Company's prospects and so on and submit the proposal for the Members' approval. For so long as the shares are listed on the TWSE in the ROC, if there are profits, in making the profits distribution recommendation, the Board shall set aside out of the profits of the Company for each financial year: (i) a reserve for payment of tax for the relevant financial year; (ii) an amount to offset losses incurred in previous years; (iii) ten per cent (10%) as reserve ("Statutory Reserve") (unless the Statutory Reserve has reached the total paid-up capital of the Company); and (iv) a special surplus reserve as required by the applicable securities authority of the ROC under the Applicable Public Company Rules.
The company adopts a residual dividend policy for the distribution of its dividends, and therefore, the remaining balance after setting aside the amount for items (i) to (iv) in the first paragraph of this Article, if any, together with a part or whole of accumulated undistributed profits in the previous years, subject to the Act and the Applicable Public Company Rules and after having considered the Company's current and future investment environment, demand for funds, domestic and international competition, and capital budget, etc. as well as taking into account the interests of the Members and the principle of balancing between dividends and the long-term financial planning of the Company, may be distributed as dividends to Members in proportion to their shareholdings in the amount of no less than thirty per cent (30%) of profit after tax of the relevant year; provided that where there is no distributable profits of the Company, there may be no dividend distribution. In the event that dividends are distributed to Members in a combination of share dividend and cash dividend, cash dividend shall be no less than thirty per cent (30%) of the total cash and share dividends distributed throughout the year.
The distribution portion of the dividends as described in the preceding paragraph of this Article may be adjusted after considering the financial, business and operation factors of the Company.
14.7 (Deleted)
14.8 (Deleted)
14.9 The Board shall fix any date as the record date for determining the Members entitled to receive any dividend or other distribution.
14.10 For the purpose of determining Members entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distributions, the Directors may provide that the Register of Members be closed for transfers for five (5) days before the relevant record date or such other period consistent with the Applicable Public Company Rules subject to compliance with the Act.
14.11 No unpaid dividend shall bear interest as against the Company.

15.1 The Board may, before declaring a dividend, set aside out of the surplus or profits of the Company, such sum as it thinks proper as a reserve to be used to meet contingencies or for meeting the deficiencies for implementing dividend distribution plans or for any other purpose to which those funds may be properly applied. Pending application, such sums may be in the absolute discretion of the Board either be employed in the business of the Company or invested in such investment as the Board may from time to time think fit, and need not be kept separate from other assets of the Company.

16.3 For so long as the shares are listed on the TWSE in the ROC, the payment of any dividend shall comply with the Applicable Public Company Rules and the Act.
17. Capitalisation
Subject to the Applicable Law and Article 12.3(a), the Board may capitalise any sum for the time being standing to the credit of the Capital Reserve or other reserve accounts or to the credit of the profit and loss account or otherwise available for distribution by applying such sum in paying up unissued shares to be allotted as fully paid bonus shares pro rata to the Members.
