Annex 1

Coremax Corporation FY2025 Business Report

Thank you all for your support for the Coremax Group over the past year. Looking back at 2025, despite global geopolitical turmoil, fluctuations in raw material prices, and uncertainties in international trade and exchange rates, all colleagues worked together to proactively expand into international markets and continued to optimize the Company’s product portfolio. The following is a report on the business results in 2025 and the outlook for 2026:

Coremax Corporation plans and coordinates the business strategy for the Coremax Group. The important subsidiaries within the Group include Heng I Chemical Company Ltd., Uranus Chemicals Co., Ltd., and overseas operating locations in China, Thailand, and Vietnam. Each subsidiary adheres to the division of labor by profession, cultivates its respective markets, strengthens its core competencies, and actively expands its business scale.

In its early days, Coremax Corporation invested in producing oxidation catalysts. It built a catalyst recovery process system to provide customers with catalyst regeneration services in order to reduce customers’ costs and realize the concepts of sustainability and recycling. In 1999, Coremax Corporation entered the battery materials market and began the production of materials required for lithium batteries. In 2010, the Company established a production line to produce nickel sulfate, mainly for its application in the cathodes for ternary lithium batteries used in electric vehicles (EVs). In response to the market growth and the need to diversify risks in recent years, the Company completed the construction of its factory in Vietnam, continuing to bolster its competitiveness in 2025.

Established in 1961, Heng I Chemical Company Ltd. started out as a private enterprise that produced chemical fertilizers in the early days and participated in Taiwan’s agricultural development, upgrade, and transformation. Heng I Chemical has collaborated with Japanese business partners in recent years to produce and supply electronic-grade sulfuric acid for the semiconductor industry. It has now become a chemical supplier crucial to Taiwan’s semiconductor industry.

Uranus Chemicals Co., Ltd. was founded in 1975. In the early days, it mainly produced oxalic acid products, retaining key extraction technologies for rare earth products. Since 2018, Uranus Chemicals has been engaged in the production of cobalt products for power batteries. In 2022, it established a new cobalt extraction plant in Toufen in Miaoli County, as well as a cobalt metal processing line in Hukou in Hsinchu County. In 2024, it built another production line for processing recycled battery materials, providing customers with low-carbon and sustainable product solutions. Uranus Chemicals is responsible for the Group’s production and sales of professional cobalt-based power battery products and provides customers with competitive products through advanced process equipment and diverse materials. Leveraging its strengths, Uranus Chemicals will continue to develop high-purity cobalt products as well as recycled products for the circular economy.

Looking to the future, the Company will stabilize its existing product lines, continue to pursue new business opportunities, and expand its scale of operations to provide customers with excellent services and product quality. Production capacity and inventory will be flexibly adjusted according to market demand to boost efficiency. Furthermore, the Company will lay a good foundation to reserve growth momentum for its future development.


I. Previous year business results

(I) Achievements of each plan of operation or business

The Company's operating results for 2025 have been audited by KPMG CPAs Pei-Chi Chen and Ming-Fang Hsu. The audited operating results are follows:

Unit: NT$ (thousand)

Item\Year 2024 2025
Operating revenue $ 4,095,506 $ 6,191,109
Operating margin 541,791 848,658
Net operating profit (loss) 166,333 436,594

Net profit (loss) after tax 225,281 153,958
EPS after tax (loss) (NT$) 1.44 1.56

In the first quarter of 2025, the subsidiary Uranus Chemical discovered a suspected case of employee theft of inventory. The investigation revealed a loss of approximately NT$108 million. The case has been reported to the judicial authorities, and legal proceedings are underway. The Company has conducted a comprehensive review and strengthened its internal control and information management measures to safeguard assets. The Company has continued to exercise supervision over subsidiaries in order to protect the interests of shareholders.

(II) Budget execution

The Company's internal budget for 2025 has been approved by the Board of Directors; however, as the financial forecasts have not been disclosed to the public, this item is not applicable.


(III) Financial income, costs and profitability analysis

  1. Financial income

The cash outflow from operating activities this year was mainly due to adjustments in inventory in response to market demand. The cash outflow from investing activities mainly went into the purchase of equipment. In terms of financing activities, in addition to the borrowing and repayment of bank loans, the Company conducted its fourth issuance of domestic convertible bonds at the end of the year to repay bank loans and replenish operating capital, thereby optimizing its financial structure.

(IV) Research and development

In 2025, the Company invested NT$18,912 thousand in research and development (R&D). The R&D has continued to focus on the fields of specialty chemicals and battery materials to optimize their production processes and improve quality. These R&D efforts aim to enhance the production efficiency of each product to prevent the waste of raw materials, reinforce the recycling technology of raw materials, and strengthen the Company’s competitive advantages. The planning focuses for the current R&D direction:

  1. Short-term plan:
    (1) Improve the quality of existing products and reduce greenhouse gas emissions to meet customers’ needs.
    (2) Improve the Company’s current manufacturing process to produce products with diverse physical properties and specifications from various raw materials.
    (3) Increase production line efficiency and enhance production technology to reduce energy consumption and waste generation.
    (4) Improve the quality of the fertilizer product lines and optimize the electronic-grade sulfuric acid process to enhance gross profit margin and product competitiveness.

  2. Medium and long-term plan:
    (1) Develop hydroxide compounds with different ratios of nickel, cobalt and manganese in line with market development needs.
    (2) Develop diversified cobalt and nickel metal recycling technologies and processes to increase recycling output and enhance recycling technology in order to meet international and customers’ ESG standards and requirements.
    (3) Support market applications and develop high-purity metal materials and products.

II. Business plan summary for the current year

(I) Current year’s business strategies, important production and marketing policies and future developmental strategies of the Company and the impact of the external competitive environment, regulatory environment, and macroeconomic conditions.

The industry faces currency fluctuations and uncertainties in raw material prices. The global supply chain has been restructured after the pandemic due to geopolitical factors, such as tariff issues that continue to affect the overall structure of supply chains. However, according to the IEA’s Global EV Outlook 2025, the global EV market has exhibited long-term growth. The Company mitigates exchange rate risk through prudent financial management and hedging strategies, and has further strengthened its core competencies by

putting the new factory in Vietnam into operation. The state of international politics has significantly impacted the Group’s main product sales markets in recent years. The Company’s production and marketing strategies, developed in response to the changes in the external business environment, are summarized below:

  1. Power battery materials

In response to climate change, governments around the world have strengthened control over carbon emissions. For vehicles, strict emission standards in the EU and other regions are not only accelerating the transition of traditional automakers to EVs but also driving the development and launch of new EV models.

Under the influence of international political factors, the supply chain of key materials for electric vehicle battery materials is in a stage of reorganization. During this process, each subsidiary of the Group employs a specialized division of labor, invests in expansion and certifications, and directly negotiates with many automakers.

The Company continues to implement recycling and reuse systems to meet the requirements of automakers and major battery manufacturers regarding carbon footprints and the ratio of recycled materials, thereby strengthening its competitiveness in sustainability.

Cobalt sulfate, a cobalt-based material needed in EV batteries, is mainly produced and sold by Uranus Chemicals, and its production lines have been recognized by major international manufacturers. Starting in 2024, recycled raw materials have been introduced to meet customer requirements, respond to ESG sustainability trends, and increase product value.

CoreMax Corporation focuses on the development, production, and sales of nickel-based materials for batteries. Anticipating the growing trend of high-nickel ternary batteries, the Company invested in a production site in Vietnam in 2023. The Vietnam subsidiary (VINACOREMAX) was completed and started trial productions in September 2025. Mass production is expected to officially begin for this subsidiary in 2026 following the completion of factory inspection and product certification by customers. This subsidiary not only will increase the Company’s nickel sulfate production capacity but also leverage its advantages in tariffs and location. Through the deployment of double production sites, this subsidiary can mitigate geopolitical risks and meet the requirements of international customers toward the supply chain.

~ 12 ~


  1. Oxidation catalysts

Oxidation catalyst products are mainly used as catalysts for accelerating reactions in the production process of PTA, a raw material for chemical fibers. However, demand varies with the consumer market. In recent years, manufacturers in China have significantly expanded their production capacity, squeezing out some of the original Taiwanese manufacturers' supply markets. By tracking annual consumer market changes, the Company consistently aims to meet customer quality and delivery needs and seek new growth opportunities.

  1. Chemical fertilizer

In recent years, the chemical fertilizer market has faced challenges on the supply side due to the impact of climate factors on demand and drastic fluctuations in international raw material prices, which led to changes in the market shares of state-owned and private enterprises. Under the premise of not affecting farmers' rights to use fertilizers, in response to short-term changes, private fertilizer manufacturers have switched to producing compound products with higher gross profits. In addition, in response to the changing age distribution of the agricultural demographics, manufacturers have partnered with agricultural technology initiatives to create products designed for mechanical assistance.

At the same time, with the guidance and support of the competent authority, the Company is actively developing eco-friendly fertilizers, such as slow-release and organic fertilizers made with recycled agricultural waste, to reduce its impact on the overall environment and achieve the goal of low-carbon sustainable agriculture.

  1. Specialty chemicals

Cobalt hydroxide products and electronic-grade sulfuric acid account for the majority of the Company's specialty chemical products. Cobalt hydroxide products are mainly used in the making of magnets and adhesives for rubber. The market demand for these products is influenced by regional politics and consumers.

Electronic-grade sulfuric acid is mainly supplied for Taiwan's semiconductor industry's production requirements. In recent years, as semiconductor processes have become increasingly sophisticated, advanced technologies now demand stricter chemical quality specifications, presenting self-evident challenges regarding the quality and quantity of chemicals provided by suppliers. With Heng I Chemical partnering with Japanese business partners, the Group will improve its process capability and quality to meet customers' requirements. Furthermore, the Company will proactively assess and increase production capacity to satisfy customers' needs related to advanced processes.

~ 13 ~


(II) Expected sales volume and basis

In 2026, through collaborations between R&D, manufacturing, and management, the Company will continue to improve product diversity and market responsiveness. The Sales Department will continue to actively develop domestic and international markets. As the production site in Vietnam gradually expands its production capacity to its full potential, it can help improve overall supply capacity, expand market share, and maintain the Company’s competitiveness and its leading position in the markets.

Basis for Opinion

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

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Based on our judgment, the key audit matters should be reflected in our report are as follow:

  1. Loss allowance assessment of Receivables

Please refer to Note 4(6) “Financial instruments” for the accounting policies of loss allowance assessment of receivables, Note 5 “ for the relevant accounting estimation, and major sources of assumption uncertainty”; and Note 6(3) “Notes and accounts receivable, net” to the financial statements for the details of relevant disclosures.

~ 17 ~


Description of key audit matters:

The Company has a worldwide customer base. As such, the Company may encounter difficulty in obtaining financial information of the customers due to the rapid changes in the business environment which included the industry, technology, market, and economic, as well as legal matters. When assessing the expected credit loss of its receivables during its lifetime, the receivables are measured based on the factors such as aging analysis of accounts receivable, customers' financial status, historical collection experience, current market conditions, and consideration of forward-looking information. The assessment of allowance for loss on accounts receivables involved subjective judgment of management, which has been identified as one of our key audit matters.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our main audit procedures included: Obtaining and checking the accuracy of the impairment loss calculation from the management of the accounts receivable; checking the completeness of the aging analysis of the receivables and accuracy of the aging bracket by sampling, and analyzing the receivables aging and historical receivables collection record and customer credit risk concentration in measuring the appropriateness of the expected credit loss rate in order to evaluate the reasonableness of the provision amount of the account receivable loss allowance of the Company, and evaluating the adequacy of the Company's disclosures in the accounts.

  1. Valuation of Inventories

Please refer to Note 4(7) "Inventories" for the accounting policies of inventories valuation, Note 5 "for the relevant accounting estimation, and major sources of assumption uncertainty", and Note 6(4) "Inventories" to the financial statements for the details of relevant disclosures.

Description of key audit matters:

The Company's inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The Company will exercise judgment in estimating the net realizable value of its inventories as at reporting date. Estimation of net realizable value might subject to significant changes due to the fluctuations of the market and rapid changes in technology. Therefore, estimation of devaluation loss that reduce inventory to market value is one of our key audit matters.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our principal audit procedures included: Understanding and evaluating the assessment performed by the management in calculating the net realizable value, as well as vouching to relevant documents for samples selected; evaluating the adequacy of the provisions policy; assessing whether the valuation of inventories did follow such policy; and considering the adequacy of the Company's disclosures in the accounts.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Parent-company-only Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the 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.

~ 18 ~


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

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

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent-company-only Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s 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 financial statements.

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

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

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

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

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

  5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the 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 investment in other entities accounted for using the equity method to express an opinion on this financial statements.

Independent Auditors’ Report

To the Board of Directors
Coremax Corporation:

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Coremax Corporation and its subsidiaries (“the Group”), which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of material accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of December 31, 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 with the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”), International Accounting Standards (“IASs”), interpretations as well as related guidance endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

Basis for Opinion

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

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. 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. Based on our judgment, the key audit matters should be reflected in our report are as follow:

  1. Loss allowance assessment of Receivables

Please refer to Note 4(7) “Financial instruments” for the accounting policies of loss allowance assessment of receivables, Note 5 “ for the relevant accounting estimation, and major sources of assumption uncertainty”; and Note 6(4) “Notes and accounts receivable, net” to the consolidated financial statements for the details of relevant disclosures.

~ 26 ~


Description of key audit matters:

The Group has a worldwide customer base. As such, the Group may encounter difficulty in obtaining financial information of the customers due to the rapid changes in the business environment which included the industry, technology, market, and economic, as well as legal matters. When assessing the expected credit loss of its receivables during its lifetime, the receivables are measured based on the factors such as aging analysis of accounts receivable, customers’ financial status, historical collection experience, current market conditions, and consideration of forward-looking information. The assessment of allowance for loss on accounts receivables involved subjective judgment of management, which has been identified as one of our key audit matters.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our main audit procedures included: Obtaining and checking the accuracy of the impairment loss calculation from the management of the accounts receivable; Checking the completeness of the aging analysis of the receivables and accuracy of the aging bracket by sampling, and analyzing the receivables aging and historical receivables collection record and customer credit risk concentration in measuring the appropriateness of the expected credit loss rate in order to evaluate the reasonableness of the provision amount of the account receivable loss allowance of the Group, and evaluating the adequacy of the Group’s disclosures in the accounts.

  1. Valuation of Inventories

Please refer to Note 4(8) “Inventories” for the accounting policies of inventories valuation, Note 5 “for the relevant accounting estimation, and major sources of assumption uncertainty”, and Note 6(5) “Inventories” to the consolidated financial statements for the details of relevant disclosures.

Description of key audit matters:

The Group's inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. The Group will exercise judgment in estimating the net realizable value of its inventories as at reporting date. Estimation of net realizable value might subject to significant changes due to the fluctuations of the market and rapid changes in technology. Therefore, estimation of devaluation loss that reduce inventory to market value is one of our key audit matters.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our principal audit procedures included: Understanding and evaluating the assessment performed by the management in calculating the net realizable value, as well as vouching to relevant documents for samples selected; evaluating the adequacy of the provisions policy; assessing whether the valuation of inventories did follow such policy; and considering the adequacy of the Group’s disclosures in the accounts.

Other Matter

The Company has prepared its parent-company-only financial statements 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 with the IFRSs, IASs, interpretations as well as related guidance endorsed 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.

~ 27 ~


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

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

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

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

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

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
  2. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.
  3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
  4. 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 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.

~ 28 ~


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

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

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors' report are Chen, Pei-Chi and Hsu, Ming-Fang.

(Convening shareholders meetings and procedures for shareholders meeting)

Unless otherwise provided by law or regulation, this Company's shareholders meetings shall be convened by the board of directors. Changes to the method of convening this Company's shareholders' meeting shall require a resolution of the Board of Directors, and the change must be implemented before the meeting notices are sent. This Company shall prepare electronic versions of the shareholders meeting notice and proxy forms, and the origins of and explanatory materials relating to all proposals, including proposals for ratification, matters for deliberation, or the election or dismissal of directors, and upload them to the Market Observation Post System (MOPS) before 30 days before the date of a regular shareholders meeting or before 15 days before the date of a special shareholders meeting. This Company shall prepare electronic versions of the shareholders meeting agenda and supplemental meeting materials and upload them to the MOPS before 21 days before the date of the regular shareholders meeting or before 15 days before the date of the special shareholders meeting. In addition, before 15 days before the date of the shareholders' meeting, this Company shall also have prepared the shareholders' meeting agenda book and supplemental meeting materials and made them available for review by shareholders at any time.

A shareholder holding one percent or more of the total number of issued shares may submit to this Corporation a written proposal for discussion at a regular shareholders meeting. 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. A shareholder may propose a recommendation for urging the corporation to promote public interests or fulfill its social responsibilities, provided procedurally the number of items so proposed is limited only to one in accordance with Article 172-1 of the Company Act, and no proposal containing more than one item will be included in the meeting agenda.

Shareholder-submitted proposals are limited to 300 words, and no proposal containing more than 300 words will 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, the Company 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 the Company 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 the Company five 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 the Company, 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 the Company 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.

After a proxy form has been delivered to this Company, if the shareholder intends to attend the meeting virtually, a written notice of proxy cancellation shall be submitted to the Company before two 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.

Article 5 (Principles determining the time and place of a shareholders meeting)


The venue for a shareholders meeting shall be the premises of the Company, or a place easily accessible to shareholders and suitable for a shareholders meeting. The meeting may begin no earlier than 9 a.m. and no later than 3 p.m. Full consideration shall be given to the opinions of the independent directors with respect to the place and time of the meeting.

The restrictions on the place of the meeting shall not apply when this Company convenes a virtual-only shareholders' meeting.

Article 6 (Preparation of documents such as the attendance book)

The 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 shall be assigned to handle the registrations. For virtual shareholders' meetings, shareholders may begin registering on the virtual meeting platform 30 minutes before the meeting starts. Shareholders who completed registration are deemed as attending 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.

The Company 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. The Company 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 or supervisors, pre-printed ballots shall also be furnished.

When the government or a juristic person is a shareholder, it may be represented by more than one representative at a shareholders meeting. When a juristic person is appointed to attend as proxy, it may designate only one person to represent it in the meeting.

~ 44 ~


In the event of a virtual shareholders' meeting, shareholders wishing to attend the meeting online shall register with this Company two days before the meeting date.

In the event of a virtual shareholders' meeting, this Company shall upload the meeting agenda book, annual report, and other 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.

(II) Shareholders who have not registered to attend the affected virtual shareholders' meeting shall not attend the postponed or resumed session.

(III) In case of a hybrid shareholders' meeting, when the video conferencing cannot be continued, if the total number of shares represented at the meeting, after deducting those represented by shareholders attending the shareholders' meeting by video conferencing, meets the minimum legal requirement for a shareholders' meeting, then the shareholders' meeting shall continue. The shares represented by shareholders attending the meeting by video conferencing shall be counted towards the total number of shares represented by shareholders present at the meeting, and the shareholders attending the meeting by video conferencing shall be deemed abstaining from voting on all proposals in the meeting agenda of that shareholders' meeting.

(IV) Actions to be taken if the outcome of all proposals has been announced and extraordinary motion has not been carried out.

III. To convene a virtual-only shareholders' meeting, appropriate alternative measures available to shareholders with difficulties in attending a virtual shareholders' meeting shall be specified.

~ 45 ~


Article 7

(The chair and non-voting participants of a shareholders meeting) If a shareholders' meeting is convened by the Board of Directors, the meeting shall be chaired by the chairman of the board. If the chairman is unable to perform such duties due to leave of absence or any other reason, the vice chairman shall act on the chairman's behalf. If the Company has no vice chairman or if the vice chairman is also unable to perform duties due to leave of absence or any reason, the chairman shall appoint one of the managing directors to act on the chairman's behalf. If there are no managing directors, one of the directors shall be appointed; if the chairman has not appointed a deputy, the managing director or directors shall appoint an acting chair from among themselves.

When a managing director or a director serves as chair, as referred to in the preceding paragraph, the managing director or director shall be one who has held that position for six months or more and who understands the financial and business conditions of the company. The same shall be true for a representative of a juristic person director that serves as chair. It is advisable that shareholders meetings convened by the board of directors be chaired by the chairperson of the board in person and attended by a majority of the directors, at least one supervisor in person, and at least one member of each functional committee on behalf of the committee. The attendance shall be recorded in the meeting minutes.

If a shareholders meeting is convened by a party with power to convene but other than the board of directors, the convening party shall chair the meeting. When there are two or more such convening parties, they shall mutually select a chair from among themselves.

The Company 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

(Documentation of a shareholders meeting by audio or video) The Company, 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 continuously audio and video record, without interruption, the proceedings of the virtual meeting from beginning to end.

The information and audio and video recording in the preceding paragraph shall be properly kept by this 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.

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 chair shall call the meeting to order at the appointed meeting time, and at the same time announce the number of non-voting shares and the number of shares present. However, when the attending shareholders do not represent a majority of the total number of issued shares, the chair may announce a postponement, provided that no more than two such postponements, for a combined total of no more than 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 chair 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 chair may resubmit the tentative resolution for a vote by the shareholders meeting pursuant to Article 174 of the Company Act.

~ 48 ~

Article 10 (Discussion of proposals)

If a shareholders meeting is convened by the board of directors, the meeting agenda shall be set by the board of directors. The related proposals (including extraordinary motions and amendments to the original proposals) shall be put to a vote. The meeting shall proceed in the order set by the agenda, which may not be changed without a resolution of the shareholders meeting.

The provisions of the preceding paragraph apply mutatis mutandis to a shareholders meeting convened by a party with the power to convene that is not the board of directors.

The chair may not declare the meeting adjourned prior to completion of deliberation on the meeting agenda of the preceding two paragraphs (including extraordinary motions), except by a resolution of the shareholders' meeting. If the chair declares the meeting adjourned in violation of the rules of procedure, the other members of the board of directors shall promptly assist the attending shareholders in electing a new chair in accordance with statutory procedures, by agreement of a majority of the votes represented by the attending shareholders, and then continue the meeting.

The chair shall allow ample opportunity during the meeting for explanation and discussion of proposals and of amendments or extraordinary motions put forward by the shareholders; when the chair is of the opinion that a proposal has been discussed sufficiently to put it to a vote, the chair may announce the discussion closed and call for a vote.

Article 11 (Shareholder speech)

Before speaking, an attending shareholder must specify on a speaker's slip the subject of the speech, his/her shareholder account number (or attendance card number), and account name. The order in which shareholders speak will be set by the chair.

A shareholder in attendance who has submitted a speaker's slip but does not actually speak shall be deemed to have not spoken. When the content of the speech does not correspond to the subject given on the speaker's slip, the spoken content shall prevail.

Except with the consent of the chair, a shareholder may not speak more than twice on the same proposal, and a single speech may not exceed 5 minutes. If the shareholder's speech violates the rules or exceeds the scope of the agenda item, the chair may terminate the speech.

When an attending shareholder is speaking, other shareholders may not speak or interrupt unless they have sought and obtained the consent of


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

When a juristic person shareholder appoints two or more representatives to attend a shareholders meeting, only one of the representatives so appointed may speak on the same proposal.

After an attending shareholder has spoken, the chair may respond in person or direct relevant personnel to respond.

Where a virtual shareholders' meeting is convened, shareholders attending the virtual meeting online may raise questions in writing at the virtual meeting platform from the chair declaring the meeting open until the chair declaring the meeting adjourned. No more than two questions for the same proposal may be raised. Each question shall contain no more than 200 words. The regulations in paragraphs 1 to 5 do not apply.

Article 12 (Calculation of voting shares and recusal system)

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 the Company, that shareholder may not vote on that item, and may not exercise voting rights as proxy for any other shareholder. The number of shares for which voting rights may not be exercised under the preceding paragraph shall not be calculated as part of the voting rights represented by attending shareholders.

With the exception of a trust enterprise or a shareholder services agent approved by the competent securities authority, when one person is concurrently appointed as proxy by two or more shareholders, the voting rights represented by that proxy may not exceed three percent of the voting rights represented by the total number of issued shares. If that percentage is exceeded, the voting rights in excess of that percentage shall not be included in the calculation.

Article 13 A shareholder shall be entitled to one vote for each share held, except when the shares are restricted to shares or are deemed non-voting shares under Article 179, paragraph 2 of the Company Act.

When the Company holds a shareholders' meeting, it shall adopt exercise of voting rights by electronic means and may adopt exercise of

~ 49 ~


voting rights by correspondence. When voting rights are exercised by correspondence or electronic means, the method of exercise shall be specified in the shareholders' meeting notice. A shareholder exercising voting rights by correspondence or electronic means will be deemed to have attended the meeting in person, but to have waived his/her rights with respect to the extraordinary motions and amendments to original proposals of that meeting; it is therefore advisable that the Company avoids the submission of extraordinary motions and amendments to original proposals.

A shareholder intending to exercise voting rights by correspondence or electronic means under the preceding paragraph shall deliver a written declaration of intent to the Company two days before the date of the shareholders' meeting. When duplicate declarations of intent are delivered, the one received earliest shall prevail, except when a declaration is made to cancel the earlier declaration of intent.

After a shareholder has exercised voting rights by correspondence or electronic means, in the event the shareholder intends to attend the shareholders' meeting in person 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, two business days before the date of the shareholders' meeting. If the notice of retraction is not submitted after 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 Company'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, the chair or a person designated by the chair shall first announce the total number of voting rights represented by the attending shareholders, followed by a poll of the shareholders. After the conclusion of the meeting, on the same day it is held, the results, based on the number of votes for and against and the number of abstentions, shall be entered into the MOPS.

When there is an amendment or an alternative to a proposal, the chair shall present the amended or alternative proposal together with the original proposal and decide the order in which they will be put to a vote. When any one among them is passed, the other proposals will then

~ 50 ~


be deemed rejected, and no further voting shall be required.

Vote monitoring and counting personnel for the voting on a proposal shall be appointed by the chair, provided that all monitoring personnel shall be shareholders of the Company.

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 number 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 chair declares the meeting open, shareholders attending the meeting online shall cast votes on proposals and elections on the virtual meeting platform before the chair announces the voting session ends or will be deemed abstained from voting.

In the event of a virtual shareholders' meeting, votes shall be counted at once after the chair announces the voting session ends, and results of votes and elections shall be announced immediately.

When this 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 business days before the date of 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 may 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 (Election of directors and supervisors)

The election of directors or supervisors at a shareholders meeting shall be held in accordance with the applicable election and appointment rules adopted by the 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.

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

~ 51 ~


lawsuit pursuant to Article 189 of the Company Act, the recording 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 chair 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. The Company 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 chair's full name, the methods by which resolutions were adopted, and a summary of the deliberations and the results of the voting, (including the statistical tallies of the number of votes), and shall be retained for the duration of the existence of the Company.

Where a virtual shareholders' meeting is convened, in addition to the particulars to be included in the meeting minutes as described in the preceding paragraph, the start time and end time of the shareholders' meeting, how the meeting is convened, the chair's and secretary's name, and actions to be taken in the event of disruption to the virtual meeting platform or participation in the meeting online due to natural disasters, accidents, or other force majeure events, and how issues are dealt with shall also be included in the minutes.

When convening a virtual-only shareholders' meeting, other than compliance with the requirements in the preceding paragraph, this Company shall specify in the meeting minutes alternative measures available to shareholders with difficulties in attending a virtual-only shareholders' meeting online.

Article 16 (Public disclosure)

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,

~ 52 ~


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. The same shall apply whenever the total number of shares represented at the meeting and a new tally of votes is released during the meeting.

If matters put to a resolution at a shareholders meeting constitute material information under applicable laws or regulations or any other material matter so required by the competent authority, this Corporation shall upload the content of such resolution to the MOPS within the prescribed time period.

Article 17 (Maintaining order at the meeting place)

Staff handling administrative affairs of a shareholders meeting shall wear identification cards or arm bands.

The chair may direct the proctors or security personnel to help maintain order at the meeting place. When proctors or security personnel help maintain order at the meeting place, they shall wear an identification card or armband bearing the word "Proctor."

At the place of a shareholders meeting, if a shareholder attempts to speak through any device other than the public address equipment set up by the Company, the chair may prevent the shareholder from so doing. When a shareholder violates the rules of procedure and defies the chair's correction, obstructing the proceedings and refusing to heed calls to stop, the chair may direct the proctors or security personnel to escort the shareholder from the meeting.

Article 18 (Recess and resumption of a shareholders meeting)

When a meeting is in progress, the chair may announce a break based on time considerations. If a force majeure event occurs, the chair may rule the meeting temporarily suspended and announce a time when, in view of the circumstances, the meeting will be resumed.

If the meeting venue is no longer available for continued use and not all of the items (including extraordinary motions) on the meeting agenda have been addressed, the shareholders' meeting may adopt a resolution to resume the meeting at another venue.

A resolution may be adopted at a shareholders meeting to defer or resume the meeting within 5 days in accordance with Article 182 of the Company Act.

Article 19 (Disclosure of information at virtual meetings)

~ 53 ~


In the event of a virtual shareholders' meeting, this Company shall disclose the results of votes and election immediately after the end of the voting session on the virtual meeting platform according to the regulations.

Article 20 (Location of the chair and secretary during a virtual-only shareholders' meeting)

When this Company convenes a virtual-only shareholders' meeting, both the chair and secretary shall be in the same domestic location, and the chair shall declare the address of their location when the meeting is called to order.

Article 21 (Handling of disconnection)

In the event of a virtual shareholders' meeting, if the virtual meeting platform or participation in the virtual meeting is obstructed due to natural disasters, accidents, or other force majeure events before the chair has announced the meeting adjourned, and the obstruction continues for more than 30 minutes, the meeting shall be postponed to or resumed on another date within five days, in which case Article 182 of the Company Act shall not apply.

For a meeting to be postponed or resumed as described in the preceding paragraph, shareholders who have not registered to participate in the affected shareholders' meeting online shall not attend the postponed or resumed session.

For a meeting to be postponed or resumed under the first paragraph, the number of shares represented by, and voting rights and election rights exercised by the shareholders who have registered to participate in the affected shareholders' meeting and have successfully signed in the meeting, but do not attend the postponed or resumed session, shall be counted towards the total number of shares, number of voting rights, and number of election rights represented at the postponed or resumed session.

During a postponed or resumed session of a shareholders' meeting held under the first paragraph, no further discussion or resolution is required for proposals for which votes have been cast and counted and results have been announced, or list of elected directors.

When this Company convenes a hybrid shareholders' meeting, and the virtual meeting cannot continue as described in the first paragraph, if the total number of shares represented at the meeting, after deducting those represented by shareholders attending the virtual shareholders' meeting

~ 54 ~


online, still meets the minimum legal requirement for a shareholder meeting, then the shareholders' meeting shall continue. Neither postponement nor resumption thereof under the first paragraph is required.

Under the circumstances where a meeting should continue as in the preceding paragraph, the shares represented by shareholders attending the virtual meeting online shall be counted towards the total number of shares represented by shareholders present at the meeting, provided these shareholders shall be deemed abstaining from voting on all proposals on meeting agenda of that shareholders' meeting.
