2023 Business Report

Greetings to all of our valued shareholders,

Since 2022, major economic entities around the world have suffered from high inflationary adjustments, countries in Europe and the United States have raised interest rates. Taiwan's Central Bank also raised interest rates several times between 2022 and 2023 with the aim to suppress soaring domestic prices, and has implemented measures such as the Amendment to the Equalization of Land Rights Act in order to curb speculation on real estate and land. However, the real estate market began to recover in the second half of 2023 due to robust rigid demands in the housing market and the continuous introduction of amendments and subsidies by the government to reduce the burden on house buyers.

Our 2023 operating revenue amounted to NT\$8,102,882 thousand, mainly from consignment projects of "The Top City", "The Grand Palace", "The Paradise in Hsinchu", and "Denver Flower City"; construction project of "The Gallery Mansion"; and builder projects of "The Paradise in Hsinchu", "The Grand Palace", and "River Palace". The operating income in 2023 increased by 71.16% compared to that of 2022, mainly due to favorable sales of the consignment business. The 2023 net profit was NT\$1,507,668 thousand, and the earnings per share were NT\$3.91.

Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with The Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis 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 of the current period. 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 that should be disclosed in this report are as follows:

  1. Selling real estate properties revenue recognition

Refer to Note 4(n) for the accounting policies on revenue recognition; Note 5 for details on the significant accounting assumptions and judgments, and major sources of the estimation uncertainty on revenue recognition; Note 6(w) "Revenues from contracts with customers" for revenue recognition.

Description of key audit matter:

The principle income of the Company is generated from selling real estate properties, of which has a higher tendency of revenue fluctuation due to impacts of various factors such as overall economic environment, supply and demand and reform of house and land transactions income tax system; to respond to aforementioned changes, the management has set up relevant internal control procedures over income and payment collection. The consolidated service contract income for the year ended December 31, 2023 was amounted to \$4,843,309 thousand. The accounting treatment of service contracts involve estimates and judgments; thus, it was continuously considered as significant audit risk for the Company. Consequently, revenue recognition is one of our key audit matters.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our principal audit procedures included the following: Testing the effectiveness of the design and implementing the internal control system of sales revenue; Understanding the effectiveness of the control mechanism for the Company's real estate sales revenue and collection operations. Also, to spot check the pre-orders forms of on site real estate sales, confirmation on completion of sales contract and site daily report for sales on site, the invoice of marketing planning services, bank transactions records; testing if the accounting treatment adopted for service contract income was in accordance with accounting policies; to sample check on sales transactions for the period before and after the financial reporting date and confirm the related vouchers to assess whether the revenue recognition period is appropriate.

  1. Revenue recognition of property sales

Refer to Note 4(n) for the accounting policies on revenue recognition; Note 5 for details on the significant accounting assumptions and judgments, and major sources of the estimation uncertainty on revenue recognition; for revenue recognition, please refer to note 6(w) Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

Description of key audit matter:

The real estate industry, in which JSL CONSTRUCTION & DEVELOPMENT CO., LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES is into, has a higher tendency of revenue fluctuation due to macroeconomics, economic conditions, tax policy reform and real estate demands, therefore the management has set up relevant income and collection procedures to countermeasure the aforementioned environmental changes. The revenue from property sales is \$613,899 thousand, thus, the appropriateness of recognition of revenue from property sales cast significant impacts on financial report.Consequently, revenue recognition is one of our key audit matters.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our principal audit procedures included understanding the sales revenue of property and lands of the Company and control mechanism of collection procedure as well as testing the effectiveness of the design and implementing the internal control system of sales revenue. Inspection of property and land sales contracts, bank account transaction record, collection record and real estate ownership transfer document and delivery list, etc. In addition, testing the samples of sales transaction before and after the end of the year to ensure the correctness of sales revenue.

  1. Valuation of inventories

Please refer to Note 4(f) and Note 5 for the accounting policy of inventory valuation, as well as the estimation and assumption uncertainty of the valuation of inventory, respectively. Information of estimation of the valuation of inventory are disclosed in Note 6(e) of the financial statements.

Description of key audit matter:

As of December 31, 2023, inventory of the Company (construction industry) was amounted to \$22,742,523 thousand, which accounted for 69% of the consolidated total assets, and the inventory amount was presented with lower of cost or net realizable value. The judgment of net realizable value relies on management since the Company focuses on real estate industry, the industry is not only deeply affected by politics, economics, and reform of house and land transactions income tax system, but also an industry that is capital intensive and has long recover period. Consequently, revenue recognition is one of our key audit matters.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our principal audit procedures included the following: understanding the Company' s operating and accounting procedures for inventory valuation.; obtaining the Company management's data on net realizable value of inventory or individual investment evaluation forms, then sampling these data to review their market prices and comparing with contract prices of recent sales by the Company or the most updated selling prices of nearby properties. Consequently, confirming if the net realizable value of inventory is appropriate.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRSs, IASs, interpretation 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 financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

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 are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the 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.

    1. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control.
    1. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
    1. 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.
    1. 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.
    1. 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. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

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

We also provide those charged with governance with 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 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 Chih, Shih-Chin and Huang, Hsin-Ting.

Independent Auditors' Report

To the Board of Directors of JSL CONSTRUCTION & DEVELOPMENT CO., LTD.:

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of JSL CONSTRUCTION & DEVELOPMENT CO., LTD. and its subsidiaries (" the Group"), which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, 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, 2023 and 2022, 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 developed by the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ("IFRIC") or the former Standing Interpretations Committee ("SIC") 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 Certified Public Accountants and the Standards on Auditing of the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Account of Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirement. 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 of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of 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 that should be disclosed in this report are as follows:

  1. Selling real estate properties revenue recognition

Refer to Note 4(o) for the accounting policies on revenue recognition; Note 5 for details on the significant accounting assumptions and judgments, and major sources of the estimation uncertainty on revenue recognition; Note 6(w)"Revenues from contracts with customers" for revenue recognition.

Description of key audit matter:

The principle income of the Group is generated from selling real estate properties,of which has a higher tendency of revenue fluctuation due to impacts of various factors such as overall economic environment, supply and demand and reform of house and land transactions income tax system; to respond to aforementioned changes, the management has set up relevant internal control procedures over income and payment collection. The consolidated service contract income for the year ended December 31, 2023 was amounted to \$5,047,865 thousand. The accounting treatment of service contracts involve estimates and judgments; thus, it was continuously considered as significant audit risk for the Group. Therefore, the test of revenue recognition was one of the key audit matters in the audit of consolidated financial reports for the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 of the Group.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our principal audit procedures included the following: Testing the effectiveness of the design and implementing the internal control system of sales revenue; Understanding the effectiveness of the control mechanism for the Group's real estate sales revenue and collection operations. Also, to spot check the preorders forms of on site real estate sales, confirmation on completion of sales contract and site daily report for sales on site, the invoice of marketing planning services, bank transactions records; testing if the accounting treatment adopted for service contract income was in accordance with accounting policies; to sample check on sales transactions for the period before and after the financial reporting date and confirm the related vouchers to assess whether the revenue recognition period is appropriate.

  1. Revenue recognition of property sales

Refer to Note 4(o) for the accounting policies on revenue recognition; Note 5 for details on the significant accounting assumptions and judgments, and major sources of the estimation uncertainty on revenue recognition; for revenue recognition, please refer to note 6(w) Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

Description of key audit matter:

The real estate industry, in which the Group is into, has a higher tendency of revenue fluctuation due to macroeconomics, economic conditions, tax policy reform and real estate demands, therefore the management has set up relevant income and collection procedures to countermeasure the aforementioned environmental changes. The revenue from property sales is \$613,899 thousand, thus, the appropriateness of recognition of revenue from property sales cast significant impacts on financial report. Consequently, revenue recognition is one of our key audit matters.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our principal audit procedures included understanding the sales revenue of property and lands of the Group and control mechanism of collection procedure as well as testing the effectiveness of the design and implementing the internal control system of sales revenue. Inspection of property and land sales contracts, bank account transaction record, collection record and real estate ownership transfer document and delivery list, etc. In addition, testing the samples of sales transaction before and after the end of the year to ensure the correctness of sales revenue.

  1. Construction contracts

Refer to Note 4(o) Revenue recognition for the accounting policies on construction contract; Note 5 for details on the significant accounting assumptions and judgments, and major sources of the estimation uncertainty on construction contract; Note 6(w)"Revenues from contracts with customers" for more details revenue recognition of construction contract.

Description of key audit matter:

As the total contract price and estimated total cost of construction contracts are highly related to the subjectively judgments of the managements, inaccuracy estimations for total construction income may lead to significant changes in profit or loss of the financial reports. Therefore, there is a significant risk involved. In addition, the Group recognized construction contract revenue and cost under the percentage completion method, and degree of completion is based on the how much incurred cost accounted for the estimated total contract cost as of financial reporting date. However, such errors in the aforementioned treatment may result in material differences between the recognition timing of profit or loss and the current financial statements.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

The principal audit procedures for the above key audit matter by the accountant include: Testing the internal control and operational effectiveness of the contract acquisition and payment collection; obtaining an additional breakdown of the total contract price of the various projects for the current period, and sample checking the external documents such as contract, agreement,incoming letters from owners,in addition of the valuation details of each period and the acceptance and payment of the owners; to conduct sample assessment on the procedures for drawing up the construction budget by the management and sample testing on the effectiveness of its internal control system operation; to sample check and verify the documents such as project invoice, contracts and daily construction reports, receipts and construction budget and compared against the construction budget to confirm the validity on accumulation of the construction accounts; to sample check the valuation information of each period and to confirm the calculation of percentage of completion; and to test on cut-off for contribution to construction in progress for the period before and after the balance sheet date through sampling check.

  1. Valuation of inventories

Please refer to Note 4(h), Note 5, and 6(e) of the consolidated financial statements for the accounting policies on measuring inventory, assumption used and uncertainties considered in determining the net realizable value and the details of inventory.

Description of key audit matter:

As of December 31, 2023, inventory of the Group (construction industry) was amounted to \$22,624,022 thousand,which accounted for 64% of the consolidated total assets, and the inventory amount was presented with lower of cost or net realizable value. The judgment of net realizable value relies on management since the Group focuses on real estate industry, the industry is not only deeply affected by politics, economics, and reform of house and land transactions income tax system, but also an industry that is capital intensive and has long recover period. Thus, the valuation of inventory is one of the most important evaluation in performing our audit procedures.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Our principal audit procedures included the following: understanding the Group's operating and accounting procedures for inventory valuation.; obtaining the Group management' s data on net realizable value of inventory or individual investment evaluation forms, then sampling these data to review their market prices and comparing with contract prices of recent sales by the Group or the most updated selling prices of nearby properties.Consequently,to confirm if the net realizable value of inventory is appropriate.

Other Matter

JSL CONSTRUCTION & DEVELOPMENT CO., LTD. has prepared its parent group only financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, on which we have issued an unmodified opinion with other matter paragraph.

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 Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRSs, IASs, interpretation 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.

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 are responsible for overseeing the Group's financial reporting process.

Auditors' Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in 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 auditing standards generally accepted in 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.
    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 Group's internal control.
    1. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
    1. 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.

    1. 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.
    1. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

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

We also provide those charged with governance with 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 described these matters in our auditors' report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determined 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 Shih-Chin Chih and Hsin-Ting Huang.

Chapter Three Shareholders' Meeting

Article 13: There are two types of shareholders' meetings: annual general meetings and extraordinary meetings. Unless otherwise specified by law, shareholders' meetings are to be convened by the Board of Directors. Annual general meetings are held within six months after the end of each fiscal year. Extraordinary general meetings, when necessary, are held in accordance with the law.

The shareholder meetings may be held by teleconferencing or other means announced by the central authority. However, due to natural disasters, incidents, or other force majeure events, the central competent authority may announce that the Company will hold meetings before a deadline, regardless of the provisions of the Articles of Incorporation, through teleconferencing or other methods announced.

If video conferencing is used in a shareholder meeting, shareholders who participate in the meeting via video conferencing are considered to have attended in person.

The preceding two requirements may be, however, subject to other regulations stipulated by the competent securities authority.

Meeting handbooks shall be prepared for the convening of the general meeting of shareholders. Each shareholder shall be notified of the date, location and reasons for convening annual shareholders' meetings at least 30 days before a general meeting or 15 days before an extraordinary meeting. The notification may be made in an electronic format if accepted by the recipient.

The notification of the convening of the general meeting of shareholders referred to in the preceding paragraph may be made in the form of an announcement on the MOPS for

shareholders holding less than 1,000 registered shares.

Article 14: Shareholders unable to attend the meeting may grant power of attorney to a proxy to attend on their behalf. The scope of authorization must be specified on the proxy form delivered to the Company.

Each shareholder may issue one proxy form and delegate one proxy only. All proxy forms must be received by the Company at least 5 days before the shareholder meeting. In cases where duplicate proxy forms are issued, the one that arrives first shall prevail. The shareholder has the right to revoke their attendance by proxy.

Should the shareholder decide to attend the shareholders' meeting personally or exercise voting rights in writing or by electronic means after a proxy form has been received by the Company, a written notice must be sent to the Company no later than two days before the meeting commences to withdraw the proxy arrangement. If the shareholder fails to withdraw the proxy arrangement before the due date, the vote of the proxy attendant shall prevail. A proxy representing more than two shareholders may not represent shares exceeding three percent of the total voting shares. The exceeded voting rights will not be counted.

Article 15: Unless otherwise specified in accordance with Article 179 of the Company Act to have no voting power, each share shall be equal to one vote and this shall apply to every shareholder. Voting rights can be exercised in writing or using the electronic method (according to Paragraph 1, Article 177-1 of The Company Act: The Company allows shareholders to exercise voting rights in writing or through the electronic method during shareholders' meetings). Instructions for exercising voting rights in writing or through the electronic method must be stated clearly in writing in the convening notice for the meeting. Shareholders exercising voting rights by correspondence or electronic means will be deemed to have attended the meeting in person. However, they will be considered to have waived their rights with respect to the extraordinary motions and amendments to original proposals of that meeting. It is therefore recommended that the Company avoids the submission of extraordinary motions and amendments to original proposals.

Shareholders exercising voting rights by correspondence or electronic means shall deliver their declaration of intent to the Company at least two days before the shareholders' meeting. If there is a repetition of the declaration of intent, the declaration delivered first shall prevail. Except in the case 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 paragraph shall be made known to the Company, by the same means by which the voting rights were exercised, at least two 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. If a shareholder has exercised voting rights both by correspondence or electronic means and has also appointed a proxy to attend a shareholders meeting, the voting rights exercised by the proxy in the meeting shall prevail. Unless 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. During the voting process, the Chair or the otherwise designated personnel shall announce the total number of the eligible voting rights of the attending shareholders case by case and then voting shall begin. On the same day of the meeting, the complete voting tallies, including the number voting in favor, the number voting against, and the number abstaining from voting on each particular motion are to be entered into the Market Observation Post System.

For an amendment or substitution of the same motion, the chair is to combine it with the original motion to determine the vote order. If one of the motions has been passed, the other motions are viewed as rejected and no more voting will be conducted. The monitoring and counting personnel for the voting should be assigned by the chair, and the monitoring personnel should have shareholder status. 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 made into record.

Article 16: Unless otherwise specified by the Company Act, resolutions at a shareholders' meeting shall be deemed ratified with consent of more than half of the voting rights present at a shareholders' meeting attended by more than half of all voting rights. Shareholders exercising voting rights by electronic transmission will be deemed to have attended the meeting in person, and related matters are handled in accordance with relevant laws and regulations. The voted resolutions should be made included in the meeting minutes. The meeting minutes should be signed or stamped by the chairperson of the meeting and then released in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 3, Article 183 of the Company Act.

Before speaking, the attending shareholders should first fill out speech notes clearly stating the purpose, account number (or the attendance pass number) or account name and allow the chair to determine the order of speaking.

The attending shareholders are considered to have offered no statement if they only provide the statement slips without speaking. In the event where the content of the statement is inconsistent with the speech note, the content of the statement should prevail.

Each shareholder shall not make more than two statements for the same proposal without the chairman's agreement, and each statement shall not exceed five minutes. If a shareholder's statement violates the rules or exceeds the scope of the issue, the chairman shall halt the statement.

When a present shareholder is making a statement, other shareholders shall not speak unless permitted by the chairperson and the speaking shareholder. Violators shall be halted by the chairperson.

Corporate shareholders who assign two or more legal representatives to attend the meeting may have only one person speak on a given motion.

After an attending shareholder speaks, the chairperson shall personally answer or designate a person to answer.

For shareholder meetings held by teleconferencing, the shareholders who attend the meetings by teleconferencing may raise their questions in writing on the teleconferencing platform after the chair announces the start of the meeting and before the chair announces the ending of the meeting. No more than two questions for the same motion should be allowed, and each question can have a maximum of 200 words. These do not apply to the requirements in Paragraph 1 to 5.

The abovementioned questions which do not violate the rules or do not exceed the scope of the motion should be disclosed on the teleconferencing platform as public knowledge.

Article 12 (Calculation of voting shares and recusal system)

Voting at shareholders' meeting shall be calculated based on shares.

The shares of the shareholders without voting rights are not counted in the total issued shares for the resolution of the meeting.

A shareholder who has a personal interest with the agenda of the meeting which may result in a conflict of interest with the Company shall not participate in the voting, nor shall he/she act on behalf of other shareholders to exercise the voting rights of other shareholders.

The number of shares held by shareholders who are not permitted to vote shall be excluded from total voting rights represented in the meeting.

Other than the trusts or securities agencies approved by the authorities, a person representing more than two shareholders as a proxy cannot represent shares exceeding three percent of the total voting shares. The exceeded voting rights will not be counted.

Every share represents one vote unless it is restricted or deemed non-voting shares under Paragraph 2, Article 179 of the Company Act.

Shareholders exercising voting rights by correspondence or electronic means will be deemed to have attended the meeting in person. However, they are considered to have waived their rights with respect to the extraordinary motions and amendments to original proposals of that meeting. It is therefore recommended that the Company avoids the submission of extraordinary motions and amendments to original proposals.

Shareholders exercising voting rights by correspondence or electronic means shall deliver their declaration of intent to the Company at least two days before the shareholders meeting. If there is a repetition of the declaration of intent, the declaration delivered first shall prevail. Except in the case when a declaration is made to cancel the earlier declaration of intent.

If the notice of retraction is submitted after that time, the voting rights already exercised by correspondence or electronic means shall prevail. If a shareholder has exercised voting rights both by correspondence or electronic means and has also appointed a proxy to attend a shareholders meeting, the voting rights exercised by the proxy in the meeting shall prevail.

Unless 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. The chair or the designated personnel shall announce the total number of the eligible voting rights of the attending shareholders case by case before the voting. On the same day of the meeting, the voting tallies, including those in favor, those against, and those abstaining, shall be entered into the Market Observation Post System.

For an amendment or substitution of the same motion, the chair is to combine it with the original motion to determine the vote order. If one of the motions has been passed, the other motions are viewed as rejected and no more voting will be conducted.

The monitoring and counting personnel for the voting should be assigned by the chair, and the monitoring personnel should have shareholder status.

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 made into record. After the chairperson announces the start of the meeting, the shareholders who participate in the meeting through teleconferencing shall conduct voting on various motions and elections through the teleconferencing platform, and must complete the voting before the chairperson announces the close of voting.
