Business Report

Dear Shareholders,

The Company's 2022 business results and business plans are as follows:

  • I. 2022 Operating Results

  • (I) Business Plan Implementation Results In 2022, the global economy was in a major recession under multiple pressures of high inflation, high interest rates, a pandemic, lockdowns and supply chain disruptions, and energy shortages caused by the war between Russia and Ukraine. Despite the unfavorable environment, the Company's consolidated revenue for 2022 increased by 10.6% from the previous year to NT$2.885 billion. Good Will’s growth in 2022 was be driven by the fact that it has distribution channels across the globe and is less exposed to regional political and economic risks, allowing the company to make timely adjustments to its operating strategies in response to local conditions. As a result, sales in certain regions still showed double-digit growth, such as Europe, the United States, Japan, Korea and India.

    • In terms of productions, we saw the shortage of IC semiconductor materials and material outages as an opportunity instead of a crisis and actively sought to develop secondary sources of materials. In spite of the shortage of materials across the industry, we were able to maintain normal supply.

    • In terms of management and operations, the company introduced the CommonWealth Leader Campus online learning platform in 2022 and designed a learning incentive policy to encourage colleagues to pursue continuous education. The company has also offered English language training courses to prepare an international succession team for the Group. In addition, the company has prepared the Corporate Sustainability Report and the Greenhouse Gas Inventory Report this year, and it also successfully obtained ISO27001 certification for its information security management system.

(II) Budget Execution

The Company's financial projections for 2022 are not publicly available.

  • (III) Analysis of Financial Revenues and Expenses and Profitability

Earnings perShare (NT$) 2.78 2.00 39.0

(IV) Research and Development

The Company invests approximately 8% to 10% of its consolidated revenue in research and development expenditures each year. In spite of the pandemic and severe shortage of materials, the Company’s R&D colleagues still actively developed new products and successfully launched several new products in 2022, such as the GDS-3000A-2CH digital oscilloscope, GSM-20H10 digital source meter, and GDM-500 series multi-functional digital power meter.

  • II. Summary of 2023 Business Plan

  • (I) Operating Strategies and Projected Sales Volume

    • The World Bank has recently revised downward the economic growth rates of many countries to the brink of recession in 2023, mainly because the impact of central banks' interest rate hikes has intensified and the war between Russia and Ukraine has not yet subsided, causing the world's major economies to experience stagnation. Therefore, in the face of the uncertainties of 2023, we propose several work priorities as follows:

    • (1) Enhance staff productivity: In addition to investing resources in new product development, we will strictly control the hiring of additional staff.

    • (2) Develop a management policy for overseas subsidiaries: We will propose an incentive scheme based on business growth.

7

     - (3) Integrate existing marketing efforts to support sales.
  • (II) Important Sales and Marketing Policies

    • Marketing and promotion resources will be focused on the new energy, electric vehicle, automotive electronics and battery industries. The company will also improve the quality and effectiveness of new product filings, enhance market research prior to product launch, and strengthen AE functions to fully support sales and expand support services to overseas subsidiaries.
  • III. The Company's Future Development Strategy, and the Effect of External Competition, the Legal Environment, and the Overall Business Environment

  • (I) The Company's Future Development Strategy

     - (1) Continuously strengthen the global channel management to provide more timely and comprehensive support and maintenance services.
    
     - (2) Enhance the professional technology application capability of the sales team to meet the needs of different customer groups.
    
     - (3) Increase production capacity and shorten lead times.
    
     - (4) Actively develop and engage big clients and projects.
    
     - (5) Enter the global renewable energy market by incorporating Prodigit's high voltage and high power electronic loads.
    
  • (II) The Effect of External Competition, the Legal Environment, and the Overall Business Environment

     - (1) Effect of external competition and the overall business environment: The Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund recently predicted that in 2023, one-third of the world's economies will fall into recession, and inflation will continue until the end of 2023. It is expected that international raw materials and freight rates will continue to rise, and companies will continue to be challenged with macroeconomic factors such as inflation, exchange rates, and interest rates. In 2023, the Company will remain competitive in terms of operational performance and will continue to be resilient to mitigate the impact of the macroeconomic environment and strive to create the best value for its customers, shareholders and employees.
    
     - (2) Effect of the legal environment: In addition to following the national policies and laws and regulations of Taiwan, the Company’s relevant financial, business and auditing units have always been aware of the policies that may affect the Company’s operations. There has been no significant impact on the Company's finance and operations as a result of changes in domestic or foreign laws and regulations.
    

Last but not least, we wish you all wellness and good health.

Chairman: Lin Ching-Chang Managerial Officer: Chang Chao-Ming Chief Accounting Officer: Chen Che-Cheng

Independent Auditors’ Report Translated from Chinese

To Good Will Instrument Co., Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying parent company only balance sheets of Good Will Instrument Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related parent company only statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, and notes to the parent company only financial statements, including the summary of significant accounting policies (together “the parent company only financial statements”).

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors (please refer to the Other Matter – Making Reference to the Audits of Component Auditors section of our report), the parent company only financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and its financial performance and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, in conformity with the requirements of the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial 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 Accountant of the Republic of China (the “Norm”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Norm. Based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, we believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of 2022 parent company only financial statements. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the parent company only financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Revenue Recognition

11

For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized revenue in the amount of NT$2,021,388 thousand. Revenue is derived primarily from the manufacture and sale of various types of instruments, the provision of hardware and software, and installation services. Since some of these sales were exports and the terms of trade varied, it is necessary for the company to judge and determine the performance obligations and the timing of their satisfaction. Therefore, we considered this as a key audit matter.

Our audit procedures included, but not limited to, assessing the appropriateness of the accounting policy of revenue recognition; testing the effectiveness of internal controls over the sales process with respect to revenue recognition; selecting samples to perform test of details and reviewing the significant terms and conditions of orders or contracts to confirm the performance obligation and the appropriate timing of revenue recognition; selecting samples for certain period before and after the reporting date, tracing to relevant documentation to verify that revenue has been recorded in the correct accounting period.

We also evaluated the adequacy of disclosures of revenue. Please refer to Notes 4 and 6 of the parent company only financial statements.

Valuation of Inventories

As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s net inventories amounted to NT$529,772 thousand, representing 15% of the parent company only total assets. Considering the fact that the value of inventory depends on market demands and is affected by changes in technology, which may cause loss from slow-moving inventories and inventory price decline, while the assessment of inventory loss require significant management judgement, we therefore considered this as a key audit matter.

Our audit procedures included, but not limited to, obtaining an inventory allowance policy and evaluating the reasonableness of the loss provision ratio from slow-moving inventories based on the Company's operating conditions; testing the accuracy of inventories aging and recalculating the losses from slow-moving inventories; obtaining report of inventory price decline calculation, tracing to relevant documentation and recalculating the loss from price decline to ensure inventories appropriately valuated at lower of cost and net realizable value.

We also evaluated the adequacy of disclosures of inventories. Please refer to Notes 4, 5 and 6 to the parent company only financial statements.

Other Matter – Making Reference to the Audits of Component Auditors

We did not audit the financial statements of certain subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method. Those financial statements were audited by other auditors, whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our opinions expressed herein are based solely on the reports of other auditors. These subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures accounted

12

for using the equity method amounted to NT$639,814 thousand and NT$614,345 thousand, representing 18% and 20% of total assets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The related shares of profit from the subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method amounted to NT$70,530 thousand and NT$58,147 thousand, representing 15% and 16% of the income before tax for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and the related shares of other comprehensive income from the subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method amounted to NT$18,532 thousand and NT$(3,596) thousand, representing 117% and 35% of the comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

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

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the parent company only financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of parent company only financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the parent company only financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the ability to continue as a going concern of the Company, 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 audit committee, are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Company.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the parent company only financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an 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 Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these parent company only financial statements.

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

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the parent company only financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher

13

than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

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

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

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

  4. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the parent company only financial statements, including the accompanying notes, and whether the parent company only financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  5. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company to express an opinion on the parent company only financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

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 2022 parent company only financial statements and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare

14

circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Independent Auditors’ Report Translated from Chinese

To Good Will Instrument Co., Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Good Will Instrument Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including the summary of significant accounting policies (together “the consolidated financial statements”).

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors (please refer to the Other Matter – Making Reference to the Audits of Component Auditors section of our report), the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and their consolidated financial performance and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, in conformity with the requirements of the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, interpretations developed by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee or the former Standing Interpretations Committee as endorsed and became effective by Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial 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 Company and its subsidiaries in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China (the “Norm”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Norm. Based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, we believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of 2022 consolidated financial statements. 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.

Revenue Recognition

21

For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company and its subsidiaries recognized revenue in the amount of NT$2,885,585 thousand. Revenue is derived primarily from the manufacture and sale of various types of instruments, the provision of hardware and software, and installation services. Since some of these sales were exports and the terms of trade varied, it is necessary for the company to judge and determine the performance obligations and the timing of their satisfaction. Therefore, we considered this as a key audit matter.

Our audit procedures included, but not limited to, assessing the appropriateness of the accounting policy of revenue recognition; testing the effectiveness of internal controls over the sales process with respect to revenue recognition; selecting samples to perform test of details and reviewing the significant terms and conditions of orders or contracts to confirm the performance obligation and the appropriate timing of revenue recognition; selecting samples for certain period before and after the reporting date, tracing to relevant documentation to verify that revenue has been recorded in the correct accounting period.

We also evaluated the adequacy of disclosures of revenue. Please refer to Notes 4 and 6 of the consolidated financial statements.

Valuation of Inventories

As of December 31, 2022, the Company and its subsidiaries net inventories amounted to NT$1,162,319 thousand, representing 29% of the consolidated total assets. Considering the fact that the value of inventory depends on market demands and is affected by changes in technology, which may cause loss from slow-moving inventories and inventory price decline, while the assessment of inventory loss require significant management judgement, we therefore considered this as a key audit matter.

Our audit procedures included, but not limited to, obtaining an inventory allowance policy and evaluating the reasonableness of the loss provision ratio from slow-moving inventories based on the Company's operating conditions; testing the accuracy of inventories aging and recalculating the losses from slow-moving inventories; obtaining report of inventory price decline calculation, tracing to relevant documentation and recalculating the loss from price decline to ensure inventories appropriately valuated at lower of cost and net realizable value.

We also evaluated the adequacy of disclosures of inventories. Please refer to Notes 4, 5 and 6 to the consolidated financial statements.

Other Matter – Making Reference to the Audits of Component Auditors

We did not audit the financial statements of certain consolidated subsidiaries, which statements reflect total assets of NT$416,533 thousand and NT$464,949 thousand, representing 12% and

22

13% of consolidated total assets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and total operating revenues of NT$447,815 thousand and NT$443,043 thousand, representing 16% and 17% of consolidated operating revenues for the years ended December 31 2022 and 2021, respectively. Those financial statements were audited by other auditors, whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our opinions expressed herein are based solely on the reports of other auditors.

Other Matter – parent company only financial statements

We have audited and expressed an unqualified opinion including an Other Matter paragraph on the parent company only financial statements of the Company as of and for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

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 requirements of the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, Interpretations developed by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee or the former Standing Interpretations Committee as endorsed by Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

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

Those charged with governance, including audit committee, are responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Auditor’s 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 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

23

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 Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

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

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

  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 ability to continue as a going concern of the Company and its subsidiaries. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s 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 auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company and its subsidiaries to cease to continue as a going concern.

24

  1. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the accompanying notes, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  2. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Company and its subsidiaries 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 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 2022 consolidated financial statements and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s 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.

GOOD WILL INSTRUMENT CO., LTD. Rules of Procedure for Shareholders’ Meetings

Article 1 The rules of procedures for the Company's shareholders meetings, except as otherwise
provided by law, regulation, or the articles of incorporation, shall be as provided in
these Rules.
Article 2 Shareholders as referred to in these Rules shall mean the shareholders as set out in the
register of shareholders and the proxies appointed by the shareholders to attend the
meeting.
Article 3 The Company shall specify in its shareholders meeting notices the time during which
attendance registrations for shareholders will be accepted, the place to register for
attendance, and other matters for attention.
The time during which shareholder attendance registrations will be accepted, as stated in
the preceding paragraph, shall be at least 30 minutes prior to the time the meeting
commences. The place at which attendance registrations are accepted shall be clearly
marked and a sufficient number of suitable personnel assigned to handle the registrations.
Shareholders shall attend shareholders meetings based on attendance cards, sign-in cards,
or other certificates of attendance. Solicitors soliciting proxy forms shall also bring
identification documents for verification. 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.
The staff off the shareholders' meeting shall wear identification badges or armbands.
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 number of
shares in attendance shall be calculated according to the shares indicated by the
attendance book and sign-in cards handed in plus the number of shares whose voting
rights are exercised by correspondence or electronically. Attendance and voting at
shareholders meetings shall be calculated based on numbers of shares.
Article 4 The chair shall call the meeting to order at the appointed meeting time and disclose
information concerning the number of nonvoting shares and number of shares represented
by shareholders attending the meeting. 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 one hour, may be made. If the quorum is not met after two postponements,
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. 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.
Article 5 If a shareholders meeting is convened by the board of directors, the meeting agenda shall
be set by the board of directors. Votes shall be cast on each separate proposal in the
agenda (including extraordinary motions and amendments to the original proposals set out
in the agenda). 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.
After the meeting is adjourned, the shareholders are not allowed to elect another chairman
for continued meeting at the same place or another venue.
Article 6 The Company, beginning from the time it accepts shareholder attendance registrations,

46

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 one 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.

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 numbers of votes, shall be announced on-site at the meeting, and a record made of the vote.

Article 7 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. 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.

Article 8 When discussing proposals, the order of discussion shall be in accordance with the agenda. If the discussion violates the rules or exceeds the scope of the agenda item, the chair may terminate the speech. Article 9 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. Article 10 When a juristic person is appointed to attend as proxy, it may designate only one person to represent it in the meeting. 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. Article 11 After an attending shareholder has spoken, the chair may respond in person or direct relevant personnel to respond. 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 12 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. Article 13 A shareholder shall be entitled to one vote for each share held, except when the shares are restricted shares or are deemed non-voting shares under Article 179, paragraph 2 of the Company Act.

When the Company holds a shareholder meeting, it shall adopt exercise of voting rights by electronic means and may adopt exercise of 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 avoid 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 this Corporation before 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, a written declaration of intent to retract the voting rights already exercised under the preceding

47

paragraph shall be made known to the Company, by the same means by which the voting rights were exercised, before two business days before the date of the shareholders meeting. If the notice of retraction is submitted after that time, 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, for each proposal, 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 for each proposal, based on the numbers of votes for and against and the number of abstentions, shall be entered into the MOPS.

  • When there is an amendment or an alternative to a proposal, the 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 be deemed rejected, and no further voting shall be required.

  • Article 14 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 five days in accordance with Article 182 of the Company Act.

  • 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 their voting results (including the number of voting rights), and disclose the number of voting rights won by each candidate in the event of an election of directors or supervisors. The minutes shall be retained for the duration of the existence of the Company.

  • Article 16 If a shareholders meeting is convened by the board of directors, the meeting shall be chaired by the chairperson of the board. When the chairperson of the board is on leave or for any reason unable to exercise the powers of the chairperson, the vice chairperson shall act in place of the chairperson; if there is no vice chairperson or the vice chairperson also is on leave or for any reason unable to exercise the powers of the vice chairperson, the chairperson shall appoint one of the managing directors to act as chair, or, if there are no managing directors, one of the directors shall be appointed to act as chair. Where the chairperson does not make such a designation, the managing directors or the directors shall select from among themselves one person to serve as chair. 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.
