  1. Research Results

Since 2021, the Company has shifted from outsourced R&D to in-house research and development. Through a series of dedicated efforts in research, design, and testing, the Company successfully developed products in 2025, including single-stage compression permanent magnet variable frequency screw compressors, high-speed centrifugal magnetic bearing blowers, dryers, and Lida screw vacuum pumps.

II. Summary of the 2026 business plan

  1. Operation policies and implementation overview

LIDA group specializes in the research, development, manufacturing, and sales of high-performance, high-quality, energy-efficient, and environmentally friendly air compressors under its own brand, including piston, screw, and scroll series. Its products are widely used across various industries such as pharmaceuticals, food, mining, chemicals, electronics and power, construction materials, automotive, steel, furniture, and machinery manufacturing.

In recent years, driven and strongly supported by government policies in China, and alongside the country's transformation into a global powerhouse in machinery manufacturing, industries have been actively pursuing upgrades to improve production efficiency and quality. The replacement of labor-intensive processes with high-efficiency automated pneumatic equipment has become a prevailing trend, contributing to the steady development of China's air compressor industry. The market size has shown continuous annual growth, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 5.34% from 2021 to 2025. As of 2025, the global market size has reached USD 27 billion, while the Chinese market has reached RMB 72 billion.

However, following a period of rapid expansion, the real estate market has begun to cool, particularly entering a downturn in 2024. Many developers have faced financial distress, with several prominent real estate companies encountering defaults, and numerous unfinished housing projects emerging. Given that hundreds of related industries are closely tied to the real estate sector, and that in many cities GDP heavily depends on real estate due to the lack of other substantial industries, the downturn has had a significant impact on China's overall economy.

At the same time, the global landscape is marked by a struggle between maintaining open multilateralism and democratic global order versus rising anti-globalization forces characterized by exclusive multilateralism and self-centered hegemonism. Geopolitical conflicts such as the Russia-Ukraine war and tensions in the Middle East have triggered a global energy crisis. Widening wealth disparities have fueled social discontent, while populism continues to rise worldwide. This unstable political environment has led to ongoing deterioration in the global economy. Additionally, the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence has contributed to short-term structural unemployment, further weakening consumer spending power.

In response, the Lida team remains committed to grasping market trends and leveraging its extensive experience in air compressor manufacturing and management. By adopting a customer-oriented approach,

10


closely monitoring market dynamics, optimizing product portfolio structure, and strengthening business team training, the Group focuses on talent development, enhancement of R&D capabilities, improvement of product quality, and expansion of value-added services. Through a dual strategy of stabilizing its core business and advancing innovative R&D, the Group aims to achieve steady progress and sustainable, healthy development..

  1. 2026 Annual Business Plan and Goals include:

(1) Increase the sales revenue and proportion of high-efficiency, energy-saving screw compressor products—such as single-stage compression permanent magnet variable frequency screw compressors, high-speed centrifugal magnetic bearing blowers, air-cooled low-pressure screw compressors, and Lida screw vacuum pumps—while optimizing the product mix to enhance profitability;
(2) Accelerate new product development by continuously expanding into diversified application areas, including oil-free screw blowers, refrigeration-series screw compressors, vacuum pump series, and dryers, while actively and prudently advancing product upgrading and transformation;
(3) Continue to accelerate the mass production of screw compressor main units, expand the development of various models, and ensure stable supply and yield rates of key components.;
(4) To optimize high-quality after-sales service constantly, and cooperate with the existing mature distributor system and increase sales bases through strategic cooperation, so as to expand market share further;
(5) Further enhance corporate governance standards by strengthening the Company's governance framework and internal control mechanisms, while fulfilling corporate social responsibility to achieve sustainable business operations.
(6) Allocate limited resources (including manpower, capital, and time) with precision to customer segments that deliver the highest returns, while leveraging digital tools to reduce marginal costs.

  1. Research and Development

Since its establishment, Lida has been committed to the research, development, and manufacturing of air compressors, focusing primarily on independent R&D while also engaging in technological collaborations to develop proprietary technologies. In production, the Company has successfully improved existing manufacturing efficiency and techniques, achieving the capability to produce high-quality air compressors at low cost. Lida has consistently maintained technical development and collaborative relationships with numerous academic and research institutions in the field of air compressors.

Looking ahead, Lida plans to develop high-power screw compressor main units, vacuum pumps, oil-free screw blowers, and refrigeration-series screw compressors. The Company will continue to design models with enhanced features such as energy efficiency, performance, noise reduction, weight, and compact size to meet the diverse needs of different market customers.

III. The company's development strategy

  1. Based on future market demand for air compressors, carry out technical upgrades and modifications to the Company's existing products to meet new market requirements, while also

11


developing and launching new energy-saving and efficiency-enhanced air compressors in line with industry trends.

  1. In response to changing market conditions, adjust and improve the current sales system by enhancing the professional training of the Company’s sales personnel, improving communication and coordination with distributors, organizing distributor meetings based on market demand, and establishing a sales system and mechanism capable of promptly responding to new market requirements.

  2. Strengthen the recruitment of highly skilled and qualified talent, particularly in R&D. The Company plans to establish a R&D center and form a sizable research team to develop products that meet market demand in line with trends in the air compressor industry, implementing a product differentiation strategy.

IV. The impacts including the external competitiveness, rules and regulations and macro-economic environment

The air compressor market is broad and highly competitive, with numerous manufacturers operating in the industry. However, due to the variety of application areas, each large-scale air compressor manufacturer typically offers unique, differentiated products. Therefore, while competition exists, it is not purely homogeneous. As a general-purpose air compressor manufacturer, Lida’s customer base is primarily concentrated in the industrial manufacturing sector. The Company not only sells products but also provides unique solutions tailored to customers’ specific needs, offering differentiated products that give it a relative competitive advantage in the air compressor industry. Lida’s products comply with national industry standards, feature excellent energy efficiency, and deliver effective energy-saving performance. The raw materials used in production are non-toxic, harmless, and free from chemical or heavy metal contamination, ensuring that operations do not violate environmental regulations.

Since 2024, the real estate market has been sluggish, with several prominent developers facing financial difficulties, causing related industries to experience downturns as well. At the same time, global political instability and China’s ongoing industrial structure optimization and upgrading have led to bankruptcies among some companies that failed to upgrade successfully, as well as industrial shifts, resulting in a shrinking customer base and pressure on corporate revenue and operations. Lida continues to adhere to a strategy of continuous innovation, regularly adjusting its positioning and developing products that meet market demand, thereby mitigating the adverse impacts of the overall economic environment.

Attachment 4 Independent Auditors' Report and 2025 Consolidated Financial Statements

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Lida Holdings Limited

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Lida Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries (the "Group") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant 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 the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission.

Basis of opinion

We conducted our audit of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China (ROC GAAS). We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Codes of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants in the Republic of China (the "Code"), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. 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 judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the Group's consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole and in forming our opinion; thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. The key audit matters we judge that shall be communicated in the audit report are as follows:


16

  1. Cash and cash equivalents

Descriptions of the key audit matter

Please refer to Note 4(6) to the consolidated financial statements for the accounting policies on cash and cash equivalents. Please refer to Note 6(1) to the consolidated financial statements for the explanations on the accounting item. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the balances of cash and cash equivalents amounted to NT$2,545,766 thousand and NT$2,389,144 thousand, respectively.

The Group designs, manufactures, and sells mechanical and electrical products such as air compressors, and cash and cash equivalents are accounted for 32% and 31% of the total consolidated assets, respectively. Because of cash and cash equivalents' inherent risk, we consider cash and cash equivalents as a key audit matter.

Audit procedures in response:

Primary audit procedures are as follows:

  • Evaluated and tested the design and effectiveness of the internal control over cash management, including segregation of duties for cash receipts and recording, authorization of receipts and payments in cash and book general entry.
  • Sending written confirmation requests regarding all bank accounts, to acquire external information.
  • Performed a test audit for large inflows and outflows of cash and verified whether the nature of the transactions complied with the business operating needs.
  • Tested the bank reconciliation report by verifying the balance of all accounts against that of the general ledger, checking the balance of the bank account against the bank statements and bank confirmations, and inspecting the reconciling items against the bank statements after the balance sheet date or other supporting documents to ensure the completeness, accuracy as well as the rights and obligations of bank deposit.
  • Perform an inventory audit to confirm the existence of cash on hand and revolving funds.

  • Sale revenue from distribution selling

Description of the key audit matter

Please refer to Note 4 (14) to the consolidated financial statements for the accounting policies on revenue recognition. Please refer to Note 6 (15) to the consolidated financial statements for the explanations on the accounting item. For the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Group's consolidated revenue was NT$3,466,489 thousand and NT$3,632,150 thousand, respectively.

The Group primarily adopts a sales distribution model and signs, with distributors each year, agreements that state the rights and obligations of distributors, such as the terms and conditions, sales quotas, delivery method, maintenance and warranty, and refund policy.

Given that the income generated under the above sale distribution model made up 92% and 94% of the total Group sales revenue, respectively, the sales distribution model and terms of transactions would have a significant impact on the recognition of the sales revenue. Thus, we consider sales revenue from distribution selling as the key audit matter.

Audit procedures in response:

Primary audit procedures are as follows:

  • Assessed the new top 10 distributors by checking the owner, major shareholders, business address, capital, main business items and other relevant information of the distribution companies.
  • Selected samples from the major distributor list, and conducted interviews with them to observe the veracity of sales pertaining to distributors, and inquired whether the financial information of transactions between the distributors and the Group was consistent with the information in the financial statements.
  • Verified the balance of accounts receivable at the end of the period by sending confirmation request letters to Group's major distributors, to acquire external information.
  • Assessed and tested the implementation effectiveness of internal controls over sales.
  • Tested the samples of sales transactions, to assess the correctness of the period of revenue recognition.

17

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 the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission, and for such internal controls as management determines are 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, including the Audit Committee, are responsible for overseeing the Group's financial reporting process.

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 it is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ROC GAAS 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 ROC GAAS, we exercise professional judgement 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 controls.
  2. Obtain an understanding of internal controls 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 controls.
  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 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 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 controls 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 Group's consolidated financial statements for the year 2025 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.

62


  1. The proceedings regarding general meetings and the voting in general meetings not provided for in these Articles shall be governed by the internal rules of the Company, as adopted and amended by the Company by an Ordinary Resolution from time to time, which shall be in compliance with the Law and the Applicable Listing Rules (in particular the Rules Governing the Conduct of Shareholders Meetings of R.O.C. Public Companies).

VOTES OF MEMBERS

  1. Subject to any rights and restrictions as to voting for the time being attached to any Share by or in accordance with these Articles, at any general meeting, every Member present in person (or in the case of a Member being a corporation, by its duly authorised representative) or by proxy shall have one vote for each Share registered in his/her/its name in the Register.

  2. In the case of joint Members, the joint Members shall select a representative among them to exercise their voting powers and the vote cast by such representative, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint Members.

  3. A Shareholder who holds Shares for the benefit of others need not use all his votes or cast all the votes he holds in the same way as he uses his votes in respect of Share he holds for himself. The qualifications, scope, methods of exercise, operating procedures and other requirements for separate votes shall be in compliance with the Applicable Listing Rules.

  4. Any corporation which is a Member of the Company may, by resolution of its board or other governing body, authorise such natural person as it thinks fit to act as its representative at any general meeting or at any meeting of a Class of Members of the Company.

  5. (1) Subject to the Law and the Applicable Listing Rules, Shares held by the following persons shall not be counted in the total number of issued Shares of the Company which are entitled to vote for when calculating the quorum at a general meeting and Members belonging to the following persons shall abstain

63


from voting in respect of all Shares held by them:

(a) the Company itself (if such holding is permitted by the Law);

(b) any entity in which the Company is legally or beneficially interested in more than fifty percent (50%) of its issued and voting share capital or equity capital; or

(c) any entity in which the Company and (i) its holding company, and (ii) its Subordinate Company are legally or beneficially, directly or indirectly, interested in more than fifty percent (50%) of its issued and voting share capital or equity capital.

(2) Any Member who bears a personal interest that may conflict with and impair the interest of the Company in respect of any matter proposed for consideration and approval at a general meeting shall abstain from voting in respect of all the Shares that such Member should otherwise be entitled to vote, on his behalf or as a proxy or corporate representative, with respect to the said matter. Any and all votes cast by such Member(s) shall not be counted in determining the number of votes for or against such matter.

(3) Where any Director, who is also a Shareholder of the Company, creates or has created any charge, mortgage, encumbrance or lien in respect of Shares held by such Director (the "Charged Shares") exceeding fifty percent (50%) of total Shares held by such Director at the time of his/her latest appointment as Director, such Director shall refrain from exercising its voting rights on the Shares representing the difference between the Charged Shares and fifty percent (50%) of total Shares held by such Director at the time of his/her latest appointment as Director, and such Shares shall not carry the voting rights and shall not be counted toward the number of votes represented by the Shareholders present at a general meeting but shall be included in the quorum.

  1. To the extent permitted by the Law, the Board may resolve that the voting power of a Member at a general meeting may be exercised by way of a written ballot or by way of electronic transmission. The method for exercising such voting power shall be described in the general meeting notice to be given to the Members if the voting power may be exercised by way of a written ballot or electronic transmission. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the Relevant

64


Period, subject to the Applicable Listing Rules, the Company shall adopt the electronic transmission as one of the methods for exercising the voting power of a Member. Any Member who intends to exercise his voting power by way of a written ballot or by way of electronic transmission shall serve the Company with his voting decision at least two (2) days prior to the date of such general meeting. Where more than one voting decision are received from the same Member by the Company, the first voting decision shall prevail, unless an explicit written statement is made by the relevant Member to revoke the previous voting decision in the later-received voting decision. A Member who exercises his voting power at a general meeting by way of a written ballot or by electronic transmission shall be deemed to have appointed the chairman of the general meeting as his proxy to vote his Shares at the general meeting only in the manner directed by his written instrument or electronic document. The chairman of the general meeting as proxy shall not have the power to exercise the voting rights of such Members with respect to any matters not referred to or indicated in the written or electronic document, impromptu proposal and/or any amendment to resolution(s) proposed at the said general meeting. For the purpose of clarification, such Members voting in such manner shall be deemed to have waived their voting rights with respect to any extemporary matters or amendment to resolution(s) proposed at the general meeting.

  1. In case a Member who has cast his votes by a written instrument or by way of electronic transmission intends to attend the relevant general meeting in person, he shall, at least two (2) day prior to the date of the general meeting, revoke such votes by serving a notice in the same manner as he cast such votes. In the absence of a timely revocation of such votes, such votes shall remain valid.

PROXY

  1. (1) A Member may appoint a proxy to attend a general meeting on his behalf by executing a proxy form produced by the Company stating therein the scope of power authorized to the proxy. A proxy need not be a Member.

(2) Subject to the Law and unless otherwise provided in these Articles, forms of instrument of proxy for use at a general meeting shall be produced by the Company specifying therein (a) the instructions for filling out the form, (b) the

65


matters to be entrusted by the Member or to be voted upon pursuant to such proxy, and (c) the basic information of the Member as appointor, the proxy and the proxy solicitor (if any), and shall be sent out together with the notice of general meeting to all Members on the same day.

  1. A Member may only appoint one proxy for each general meeting irrespective of how many Shares he holds and shall serve an executed proxy in compliance with the preceding Article to the Company or its Shareholder Service Agent as the case may be no later than five (5) days prior to the date of the general meeting. In case the Company receives two or more proxies from one Member, the one received first by the Company shall prevail unless an explicit statement by the Member to revoke such proxy is made in the subsequent proxy, provided this subsequent proxy is received no later than five (5) days prior to the date of the general meeting.

  2. In case a Member who has served a proxy intends to attend the relevant general meeting in person or to exercise his voting power by way of a written ballot or electronic transmission, he shall, at least two (2) days prior to the date of the general meeting, revoke such proxy by serving a separate written notice to the Company or Shareholder Service Agent; otherwise, the votes cast by the proxy at the general meeting shall prevail.

  3. A Member who has served the Company with his voting decision in accordance with Article 57 for the purpose of exercising his voting power by way of a written ballot or by way of electronic transmission may appoint a person as his proxy to attend the meeting in accordance with these Articles, in which case the vote cast by such proxy shall be deemed to have revoked his previous voting decision served on the Company and the Company shall only count the vote(s) cast by such expressly appointed proxy at the meeting.

  4. During the Relevant Period, except for trust enterprises or shareholder service agencies duly licensed under the R.O.C. competent authorities or the chairman of a general meeting who is deemed appointed as proxy pursuant to Article 57, where a Person acts as a proxy for two or more Members, the number of voting Shares that the proxy may vote in respect thereof shall not exceed three percent (3%) of the total number of issued and outstanding voting Shares; otherwise,

66


such number of voting Shares in excess of the aforesaid threshold shall not be counted towards the number of votes cast for or against the relevant resolution or the number of voting Shares present at the relevant general meeting but shall be included in the quorum. Upon such exclusion, the number of voting Shares being excluded and attributed to each Member represented by the same proxy shall be determined on a pro-rata basis based on the total number of voting Shares being excluded and the number of voting Shares that such Members have appointed the proxy to vote for.

  1. The use and solicitation of proxies not provided for in these Articles shall be governed by the internal rules of the Company, as adopted and amended by the Board from time to time, which shall be in compliance with the Law and the Applicable Listing Rules (in particular, the Regulations Governing the Use of Proxies for Attendance at Shareholder Meetings of R.O.C. Public Companies (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time)).

DIRECTORS AND THE BOARD

  1. (1) The Board shall consist of not less than five (5) Directors (including Independent Directors). Subject to the foregoing, the number of Directors to be elected and hold the office shall be stated in the notice of the general meeting in which an election of Directors will be held.

(2) A Director can be a natural person or a Juristic Person. Where a Director is a Juristic Person, it shall designate a natural person as its authorized representative to exercise, on its behalf, the powers of a Director and may replace such representative from time to time so as to fulfil its remaining term of the office. A Director shall not be required to hold any Shares in the Company.

(3) Directors shall be elected by Members at general meetings. Any Juristic Person which is a Member shall be entitled to appoint a natural person or natural persons as its representative(s) to be nominated for election as Director in accordance with these Articles.

(4) The principle of cumulative voting shall apply in any election of Directors pursuant to this Article. Each Member entitled to vote in such election shall have

67


a number of votes equal to the product of (a) the number of votes conferred by such Member's Shares and (b) the number of Directors to be elected at the general meeting. Each Member may divide and distribute such Member's votes, as so calculated, among any one or more candidates for the directorships to be filled, or such Member may cast such Member's votes for a single candidate. At such election, the candidates receiving the highest number of votes, up to the number of Directors to be elected, shall be elected. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Paragraph (4) of this Article, at any time other than the Relevant Period, the Company may by Ordinary Resolution appoint any Person to be a Director or remove any Director from office.

(5) The proceedings and the voting regarding the election of Directors not provided for in these Articles shall be governed by the internal rules of the Company, as adopted and amended by an Ordinary Resolution from time to time, which shall be in compliance with the Law and the Applicable Listing Rules (in particular, the Methods of Election of Directors and Supervisors of R.O.C. Public Companies).

  1. The Company may, whenever it thinks fit, adopt and apply a candidate nomination mechanism for election of any of the Directors in accordance with the Applicable Listing Rules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the Relevant Period, a candidate nomination mechanism shall be adopted for election of all Directors. Upon adoption of candidate nomination mechanism, the Directors and Independent Directors shall be elected by the Members at a general meeting from among the nominees listed in the respective rosters of director candidates and independent director candidates. Subject to the Law and the Applicable Listing Rules, the Board may establish detailed rules and procedures for such candidate nomination.

  2. Subject to these Articles, each Director shall be appointed to a term of office of three (3) years and is eligible for re-election. In case no election of new Directors is effected prior to the expiration of the term of office of existing Directors, the term of office of such existing Directors shall be extended until the time such Directors are re-elected or new Directors are duly elected and assume their office subject to these Articles. In the event of any vacancy in the Board, the new Director elected in the general meeting shall fill the vacancy for the residual term of office.

68


  1. (1) Unless otherwise provided by these Articles, a Director may be removed from office at any time by a Special Resolution adopted at a general meeting.

(2) Without prejudice to other provisions of these Articles, the Directors may be put up for re-election at any time before the expiration of the term of office of such Directors. In the event where all Directors are subject for re-election at a general meeting before the expiration of the term of office of such Directors, subject to the successful election of the new Directors at the same meeting, the term of office of all current Directors is deemed to have expired on the date of the re-election if the Members do not resolve that all current Directors will only retire at the expiration of their present term of office or any other date as otherwise resolved by the Members at the general meeting.

  1. A chairman of the Board (the “Chairman”) shall be elected from among the Directors and appointed in term by a majority of the Directors present at a Board meeting attended by at least two-thirds of all of the Directors then in office. A vice chairman of the board (the “Vice Chairman”) may also be elected from among the Directors and appointed by a majority of the Directors present at a Board meeting attended by at least two-thirds of all of the Directors then in office. The Chairman shall externally represent the Company and internally preside as the chairman at every Board meeting and at every general meeting convened by the Board. In the event the Chairman is not present at a meeting or cannot or will not exercise his powers and duties for any cause, the Vice Chairman shall act as the Chairman and perform all of the powers and duties provided for the Chairman. In case there is no Vice Chairman or the Vice Chairman is also unable to present at a meeting or cannot or will not exercise such powers and duties of the Chairman in the absence of the Chairman for any cause, the Chairman shall designate one of the Directors to act on his behalf. In the absence of such designation, the Directors present at the meeting shall elect from among themselves an acting chairman. In case of death, disability, incompetence, resignation of the Chairman under these Articles or non-performance of powers and duties by the Chairman for a continuous period of at least three (3) months or more, any Director may convene a Board meeting within thirty (30) days of the occurrence of the death, disability, incompetence, resignation of the Chairman or within thirty (30) days after the non-performance of powers and

69


duties by the Chairman for a continuous period of three (3) months to elect another Person to be the Chairman under these Articles.

  1. The remuneration of a Director may differ from other Directors, and shall be determined by the Board, regardless of the Company profits or losses of respective years, based on (a) the extent of a Director's involvement with the operations of the Company, (b) the contribution of a Director to the Company, (c) the prevailing industry standard and (d) such other relevant factors.

  2. When the number of Directors then in office falls below five (5) due to any Director(s) vacating his office for any reason, the Company shall hold an election for such number of Directors at the next general meeting to fill the vacancy for the remainder of the term of such outgoing Director(s). When the number of Directors then in office falls short by one-third of the total number of Directors initially constituting the existing Board, the Company shall convene an extraordinary general meeting within sixty (60) days of the occurrence of that fact for the purposes of electing such number of Directors to fill the casual vacancy.

  3. Subject to these Articles, a Director other than an Independent Director may hold any other office (except that of Auditor) or place of profit under the Company in conjunction with his office of Director for such period and on such terms (as to remuneration and otherwise) as the Board may determine, and no Director or intending Director shall be disqualified by his office from contracting with the Company either with regard to his tenure of any such other office or place of profit nor shall any Director so contracting or being so interested be liable to account to the Company for any profit realised by any such contract or arrangement by reason of such Director holding that office or of the fiduciary relation thereby established.

  4. (1) Without prejudice to the duties owed by a Director to the Company under common law of the Cayman Islands and subject to the Law, the Directors shall assume fiduciary duties to the Company and without limitation, the due care of a good administrator, exercise due care and skill and act in the best interest of the Company in conducting the business operation of the Company, including matters in connection with Spin-off, Consolidation, Merger, or acquisition of the

70


Company. A Director may be liable to the Company if he acts contrary to his duties. In circumstances where a Director breaches any of such duties and acts for his/her or other Person’s interest, the Company may, with the sanction of an Ordinary Resolution, take all such actions and steps as may be appropriate and to the maximum extent legally permissible to seek to recover any and all earnings derived from such act as if such misconduct is done for the benefit of the Company.

(2) If a Director violates any law in the course of conducting the business of the Company, he shall be jointly and severally liable with the Company for the damages resulting from such violation.

(3) The preceding two Paragraphs of this Article shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the officers of the Company who are authorised to act on its behalf in a senior management capacity.

  1. Subject to these Articles, a Director other than an Independent Director may act by himself or his firm in a professional capacity for the Company (except that of Auditor), and he or his firm shall be entitled to remuneration for professional services as if he were not a Director.

  2. To the extent permitted by the Law, the Company may pay, or agree to pay, a premium in respect of a contract insuring each of the following persons against risks determined by the directors, other than liability arising out of that person's negligence and/or dishonestly: an existing or former director (including alternate director), secretary or officer or Auditor of: the Company; a company which is a subsidiary of the Company; and a company in which the Company has or had an interest (whether direct or indirect).

  3. During the Relevant Period, the qualifications, election, removal, power, authority and other requirements for Directors (including Independent Directors), which are not covered by these Articles, shall be in compliance with the Applicable Listing Rules.

INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS

  1. (1) During the Relevant Period, the number of Independent Directors of the Company

71


shall not be less than three (3) or one-third of the total number of Directors at any time, whichever is greater. Two (2) of the Independent Directors shall have resident status of the R.O.C. (such resident status being registered with local government authorities) PROVIDED HOWEVER that the number of Independent Directors of the Company shall not be less than four (4) when the Chairman is also the general manager or holds an office equivalent to the general manager or when a spousal relationship or a familial relationship within the first degree of kinship as defined under the Civil Code of Taiwan exists between the Chairman and the general manager of the Company or between the Chairman and an officer equivalent to the general manager of the Company.

(2) Subject to the foregoing, the number of Independent Directors to be elected and hold the office shall be stated in the notice of the general meeting in which an election of Independent Directors will be held.

When all Independent Directors cease to act, the Company shall convene an extraordinary general meeting to hold an election of Independent Directors within sixty (60) days from the date on which the situation arose.

Except as otherwise provided in the Company Act and in this Corporation's articles of incorporation, the passage of a proposal shall require an affirmative vote of a more than a half 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 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.
