3. Proposal of Private Placement - to Issue Common Shares, Preferred Shares, Convertible Bonds or A Combination of Above Securities to Specific Parties

The Board of Directors recommends shareholders vote FOR issuing of common shares, preferred shares, convertible bonds or a combination of above securities to specific parties for a total amount of not exceeding NT$10 billion or equivalent in foreign currencies. Explanatory Notes:

  • i. The Bank’s Board of Directors was authorized in annual shareholders’ meeting on June 19, 2019 to proceed private placement for a total amount of not exceeding NT$10 billion or equivalent in foreign currencies. This proposal herein is to request extension of last shareholders’ meeting resolution for another year.

  • ii. The purpose of private placement is to seek alliance opportunities with domestic or foreign strategic investors, to strengthen the Bank’s financial structure and capital adequacy ratio, and to facilitate the Bank’s long-term development. The preferred shares, if any, are to be issued according with Article 4-1 of the Bank’s Articles of Incorporation.

  • iii. According to Article 43-6 of the Securities and Exchange Act, the disclosure of private placement shall include:

  • (i) The basis and justification of the pricing:

  • The issuing price of common shares shall be no less than 80% of the reference price, which is the higher of the following two basis prices:

    • (1) The simple averaged closing price of 1, 3 or 5 business days prior to the pricing date, minus dividends, plus price adjusted for capital reduction.

    • (2) The simple averaged closing price of 30 business days prior to the pricing date, minus dividends, plus price discount adjusted for capital reduction.

  • The issuing price of preferred shares and convertible bonds shall be no less than 80% of the theoretical price, which is the price determined by an applicable pricing model considering all the terms in the issuing.

  • The pricing date and actual issuing price, as reference above, will be determined subject to market conditions and terms, and discussion with specific parties. If the issuing price is below the par value of common shares and results in cumulative losses to the Bank, the Bank may, subject to operation status then, decapitalize capital base, reverse retained

4

earnings or capital surplus to make up the losses.

  1. The pricing of private placement, based on the reference price or theoretical price pursuant to government regulation above, and taking into account the 3-year lock-up period as required by the Securities and Exchange Act, is deemed reasonable.

  2. (ii) The selection, purpose, essentiality and benefits of allying with the specific parties:

  3. Selection of the specific parties and purpose: The strategic investors are selected based on qualification criteria specified in Article 43-6 of the Securities and Exchange Act, for those who are able to assist the Bank expanding sales channels, growing customer base, improving service quality, and reducing operation costs.

  4. Essentiality: In responding to the global trend of financial supervision, the investment from the specific parties is deemed essential in improving the Bank’s capital adequacy and risktaking capacity under Basel III, and supporting the Bank’s long-term development.

  5. Benefits: The Bank’s competitiveness and profitability will be enhanced via management participation and investment of the specific parties.

  6. (iii) The justification of private placement:

  7. The justification of no public offering: In considering the transaction timing, cost, and business needs from the strategic investors, public offering is less feasible. Plus, the longterm business cooperation relationship with the partners would be secured by the 3-year lock-up period of investment per private placement regulation.

  8. The amount of private placement: Within the limit of NT$10 billion or equivalent in foreign currencies, the amount of private placement could be raised by one or two tranches, within the period of 1 year from the shareholders’ meeting resolution date, subject to market conditions and transaction progress with the specific parties.

  9. Capital usage plan and anticipated benefits: The capital amount raised by one or two tranches of private placement will be used for expanding the Bank’s business scale and for pursuing strategic alliance opportunities domestically or globally. The anticipated benefits will include strengthening the Bank’s competitiveness, profitability, capital adequacy, and shareholders’ equity.

  10. iv. The Board of Directors is authorized to determine terms of private placement, including issuing number of new shares, pricing, terms and conditions, selection of specific parties, capital effective date, capital usage plan, anticipated benefits, and all other related matters. The Board of Directors is also authorized to revise the issuance plan due to changes of regulations, market conditions, or upon instruction from regulatory authorities.

  11. v. Please vote FOR.

  12. Resolutions : The total number of eligible votes represented by the shareholders present at the time of voting (including e-voting) was 2,306,974,430 (1 share for 1 vote), where 1,837,542,704 votes (including e-voting) were FOR the proposal, or 79.65% of the total votes; 339,886,346 votes were AGAINST the proposal, or 14.73% of the total votes; 0 vote was INVALID, or 0.00% of the total votes; and 129,545,380 votes were ABSTAINED, or 5.62% of the total votes; The proposal hereby is approved.
