II. Outline of the 2026 Business Plan:

(I) Business policy and important production and marketing policies

  1. Having mastered the key R&D technologies requisite for independently making semiconductor wet process equipment (both single-wafer processing and batch-wafer processing), the Company has demonstrated considerable competitive advantages at both the front-end and the back end of Semiconductor Advanced Packaging process. After all the years of R&D, all models of the Temporary Bonding/Debonding System (TBDB) series have all been successfully developed and put to business use; such models have become an important revenue source for the Company. Going forward this year, we will continue to enhance our R&D strength and production capacity and develop new applications, so as to meet customer needs and thus create long-term favorable development conditions for our Equipment Manufacturing business.

  1. In terms of wafer reclaim, to satisfy the customers' needs for the advanced semiconductor process, the Company has been actively engaged in developing new process and improving existing process. On the 300mm wafer reclaim front, the Company will move forward to attain more advanced process capability to meet customers' needs this year.

  2. Upholding the R&D spirit as always, the Company actively develops semiconductor/FPD/LED machinery and more advanced wafer processing technologies while competing for new products for our agent business; in 2026, the Company will diversify operating risks and generate revenues and profits from more diversified sources.

(II) Expected sales volume and its basis

Revenue is expected to grow in 2026, based on current market conditions and projected developments in industries such as semiconductors (including advanced packaging and front-end processes), compound semiconductors, substrates, and OLED, coupled with the expansion of our self-manufactured equipment and wafer reclamation business scales.

III. Future development strategies

To catch up with industrial development, the Company will strive to boost the agent business in different fields while grasping the development of technologies requisite for equipment manufacturing, and improving wafer reclaim process technology and production capacity.

IV. Impact of external competition, regulatory environment, and overall business environment

The semiconductor industry continues to expand driven by diversified market demands such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), High-Performance Computing (HPC), autonomous vehicles, the Internet of Things (IoT), and digital media. As customers progressively adopt advanced processes at 7nm, 5nm, 3nm, and 2nm nodes, capital expenditures on semiconductor equipment are expected to grow, which will yield a positive impact on the company's future development.

Once again, we would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to our shareholders, directors, customers, and suppliers for your long-term support and encouragement. Looking ahead to the coming year, we remain committed to our core philosophy of sustainable management and will continue to strive for excellence to meet the expectations of all our stakeholders."

We wish you all good health and good luck!

4. Board diversity and independence:

(1) Board diversity: Give a description of the policy and goals regarding board diversity, and the achievement thereof. Diversity policy shall include, but are not limited to, the policy on director selection criteria, professional qualifications required of the Board of Directors, the composition or percentage of experience, gender, age, nationality, and culture that are required of the Board of Directors; a company shall also disclose the concrete goals therefor, and the achievement of such goals.

The membership composition of the Board of Directors is determined by giving consideration to the diversity of Board member in various perspectives in accordance with the "Corporate Governance Best Practice Principles" and the "Procedures for Election of Directors". The Company has 9 directors, of whom 4 are independent directors and 1 is female directors. Board members are experts in management, science and engineering, or financial analysis; have involved in the management of the technology industry; have the literacy that the Company


needs such as industrial knowledge about semiconductors, operational judgment capability, a cosmopolitan market view, leadership, and decision-making capability; and can offer professional advice from different aspects, thus helping improve the Company's operating performance and management benefits. The Board membership diversity policy attaches importance to the diversification of Board membership and gender equality. The incumbent directors always pay attention to, and are seeking, whether there is any talent with a cosmopolitan market view or experience in crisis management and law.

Reason and measures for enhancing board gender diversity when neither gender holds at least one-third of the board seats: As of the publication date of this annual report, the Company's Board of Directors consists of nine members, comprising eight male directors and one female director. Due to the specific nature of our industry, the board is currently predominantly male. Moving forward, the Company will proactively seek and recruit female professionals with specialized expertise to join the Board. This initiative aims to strengthen the corporate image and cultural values of the Company while fostering a diverse and inclusive environment.

The specific management objectives and achievement status of the Company's diversity policy are as follows:

Management objectives Achievement Status
Independent directors constitute more than one-third of the board seats. 100 % Achievement
Adequate and diverse professional knowledge and skills. 100 % Achievement
Each director shall complete at least 6 hours of continuing education annually. 100 % Achievement
Independent directors have served for no more than three consecutive terms. Not achieved (Note)
At least one female seat on the Board 100 % Achievement
Note: Among the current independent directors, one has served for more than three terms. For the next board election, the Company will proactively seek and recruit qualified independent directors with specialized expertise.

(2) Independence of the board:

A. Of the Company's 9 directors, 4 are independent directors, accounting for $44\%$ of total seats. A total of 7 seats of the directors plus independent directors are neither a spouse nor a relative of within the 2nd degree of kinship of one another. In this way, the Company complies with the rules specified in Paragraphs 3 and 4 of Article 26-3 of the Securities and Exchange Act.
B. Only one Independent Director has served more than three consecutive terms. Each Independent Director currently serves as an independent director for no more than three other public companies. In terms of tenure, one Independent Director has served between 9 and 12 years, one has served between 7 and 9 years, and two have served between 1 and 3 years.
C. Directors are highly self-disciplined. If any director is an interested party with respect to any agenda item, the director shall state the important aspects of the interested party relationship at the respective meeting. When the relationship is likely to prejudice the interests of the company, the director may not participate in discussion or voting on that agenda item, and further, shall enter recusal during discussion and voting on that item and may not act as another director's proxy to exercise voting rights on that matter refer to p.31: (Recusal of directors from interest-conflicting proposals).
