Attachment 1: 2020 Business Report

First of all, on behalf of T3EX Holdings, we would like to extend our sincere thanks to all the shareholders for your attention and support in the past year. T3EX Holdings will keep leading the industry and advance to be the provider of comprehensive logistics supply chain service.

2020 Performance Review: From Deep Downturn to Big Rebound, T3EX’s Performance Breakthroughs a Record High.

OpeartingProfit Margin 11.69% 15.26% -3.57%
Net Income Margin 3.76% 2.14% 1.62%

Owing to the full products layout, which includes ocean freight, air freight, rail transport and domestic logistics, even under the severe impact of Covid-19, T3EX still performed well and enjoyed tremendous growth despite adversity in 2020. Last year, the company’s consolidated revenue reached NTD$ 15.16 billion with a 34.66% YOY growth; the gross margin reached NTD$ 2.47 billion with a 22.52% YOY growth; the income profit after tax reached NTD$570 million with a 136.46% YOY growth and EPS reached NTD$ 4.72 dollar with a 119.53% YOY growth.

In the analysis of business breakdown, the revenue of ocean freight takes up 52% of the total revenue, while Europe and the US long-haul constitute over 70%. Since the second half of 2020, the freight rate of US route started to rebound, after that, owing to the severe lack of container, space and labor, the freight rate of all routes increased dramatically, thus making T3EX’s ocean freight gross profit reaching NTD$1.34 billion with a 22% YOY growth.

With regard to air freight, due to the influence of Covid-19, passenger flights decreased drastically as well as belly cargo capacity. However, thanks to the strong and urgent cargo demand for medical supplies in the second quarter of 2020, both cargo volume and freight rate increased dramatically. In the second half of 2020, led by the strong demand of supply chain for electronic industry, the demand for space booking enjoyed huge increase, which sustained the freight rate at a high level. The overall 2020 gross profit reached NTD$706 million with a 33% YOY growth.

As for China-Europe/ China-Russia railway transport, due to the severe space shortage of ocean and air, large amount of cargoes that intended to be transported by ocean and air, tend to railway. In the year 2020, the freight rate of China-Europe railway rose by 80%~100%. Moreover, T3EX`s year-round volume increased four times compared with last year, while the gross profit enjoyed a 88% YOY growth.

12

For the domestic logistics, China’s domestic market began to recover in Q2, 2020 and strongly rebound since Q3, 2020, which propelled the growth of import, customs, warehousing and transportation. T-Cube Logistics, the Company’s domestic logistics subsidiary, began to gain profit in Q3, 2020 and achieved its annual profit goal.

Last but not least is the revenue breakdown by region. Owing to the strong demand of medical supplies and inventory supplement from China to Europe and the US, the Company’s 2020 China revenue enjoyed a 39% YOY growth; in favor of the supply chain transfer & import and export demand increase caused by the China-US trade war, along with the global freight rates surge caused by the imbalance of ship and space, the Company’s Southeast Asia revenue enjoyed a 36% YOY growth; due to the manufacturing return and increase of supply chain logistics activities in intra-Asia, the Company’s Taiwan revenue grew by 23% compared with last year.

2021 Outlook: Riding the Winds and Waves to Embrace a Bright Future.

In the post-pandemic era, enterprises` mentality for supply chain will change from “just-in-time inventory” to “safe inventory”, which will make factories build their safe inventories in a vigorous way. Also, the ease of Covid-19, increase of vaccination rate and the government’s poverty alleviation grants have triggered the expenditure growth in US, thus making the export demand from Asia to Europe and the US remain strong.

About ocean freight market, as port congestion and container shortage of the US caused by the pandemic remain unsettled, large amount of vessels are waiting on sea, thus unloading time is greatly postponed. As the export demand from Asia continues to grow, causing the scarcity of ship and space, the long-haul rate will sustain at high level. But it is predicted that the container and space shortage will alleviate in the second half of the year. But only if the business structure of ocean industry could transform, high freight rate will become normal. What`s more, as worldwide Covid-19 vaccination rate increases, global economy may gradually recover from H2, 2021, at that time, we will enter the traditional booming season in Q3, so shipping industry will remain prosperous this year. However, we should still observe three indexes: container turnover rate, GCSP (Global Carrier Schedule Performance) and global Covid-19 vaccination rate.

For air freight market, remote communication become the new normal, E-vehicle, 5G, and AI are carried forward in succession, thus the demand for semi-conductor and related electronic components increases. In addition, manufacturers have enhanced their inventory storage, thus we predict the certain cargo demand will keep growing. On the other hand, as more and more Covid-19 vaccines acquired permission to go on the market, they will demand and consume most of the air capacity. Before the cancellation of international travel restrictions, almost 50% of the passenger and cargo flights are grounded, so air freight rates will remain at a high level owing to the 20%~30% capacity gap.

Since the cost of China-Europe/China-Russia rail transport being much lower than air and close to ocean, while, its transportation time is one third of ocean, railway becomes the main transportation method for many customers after the pandemic. So far, China has become the EU’s largest bilateral trade partner. In 2020, China-EU bilateral trade amount reaching EUR 586 billion, surpassing the US-EU bilateral trade amount of USD 555 billion. Due to the rapid growth of demand, trains and containers become tight, thus we could positively foresee an increase for this year.

13

About China domestic logistics market, as the domestic spending continues to grow, plus the supply chain restructuring caused by China-US trade war, China forms the “dual circulation economy” with both manufacturing and consumption, so, it is foreseeable that demand for domestic warehousing and transportation will also increase.

For Southeast Asia market, the China-US trade war resulted in a restructuring of the global supply chain with Taiwan and Southeast Asia produce for the US consumer economy. In addition, with the benefits of demographic dividend, land, and tax advantages, there is a chance for the Southeast Asia market to boom.

Generally speaking, the global pandemic is slowing down. With the increase of Covid-19 vaccination rate, global economy will recover gradually at a stable pace. Thus, the overall logistics market will enjoy a further increase, the 2021 outlook is still optimistic.

Future Strategy Plan: Raising Sufficient Capital to Expand Market Share in the Post-Covid-19 Era to Create a New Milestone.

T3EX’s 2020 performance showed the gain of integrated logistics. We will continue to play effectiveness of holding platform via the duo-headquarter module as well as NTD$615 million capital raised from capital market this January. With healthier and more competent financial structure and sufficient cash flow to ally with strategic partners, by merge or joint-venture strategy to integrate vertical industry and expand market, the Company will keep the growing momentum and open a new chapter. The Operating Strategy of Duo Headquarters is as follows:

Taipei Headquarter (Non-China Market):

  1. Capture the opportunity of returning Taiwanese manufacturers from China and increase investment in Taiwan.

  2. Increase investment in Southeast Asia market.

  3. Strengthen long haul route business from Asia to Europe and the US.

  4. Expand network locations within Asia.

  5. Deepen collaborations with WPG Holdings.

Shanghai Headquarter(China Market):

  1. Enhance one-stop logistics service in China (Import + Custom Clearance+ Warehousing + Transportation + Supply Chain Finance), increase investment in import logistics business.

  2. Develop Africa and Latin America market via JV and closer partnerships with overseas agents.

  3. Develop comprehensive China-Europe/China-Russia/China-Central Asia railway and China-Central Asia transportation businesses.

1. Revenue recognition

Please refer to Note 4(m) "Revenue recognition" of consolidated financial statements and Note 6(t) "Revenue from contracts with customers" for the details of operating revenues of consolidated financial statements.

Description of key audit matter:

The Group mainly engages in sea and air freight forwarding, and total logistics solution. Therefore, the revenue

18

is a matter to the users of the consolidated financial statements. Consequently, this is one of the key assessment areas in our audit.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Understanding the internal control on revenue recognition applied by the management and assessing whether appropriate accounting policy is applied; performing the analysis on revenue from the top ten customers to verify whether or not any unusual transaction has incurred; performing the sampling procedures to verify records and supporting document of the transactions; selecting a period before and after the reporting date to assess whether revenue recognized in the correct period.

2. Goodwill and other intangible assets impairment assessment

Please refer to Notes 4(l) “Impairment of non financial assets” of the consolidated financial statements, Note 5 for assumptions on the accounting estimates and assumptions on the impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets of the consolidated financial statements, and Note 6(i) for the details of the intangible assets in consolidated financial statements.

Description of key audit matter:

The accounting policy applying to the goodwill and other intangible assets arising from acquisition transactions is with the uncertainty estimation. Consequently, this is one of the key assessment areas our audit focus on.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Understanding the internal control on the impairment assessment of the goodwill and other intangible assets; selecting significant goodwill and other intangible assets; obtaining impairment assessment reports issued by an external expert engaged by the management; assessing model, parameters and assumptions applying to the financial information forecast; and evaluating whether the assessment for goodwill and other intangible assets was based on the accounting policies.

3. Accounts receivable evaluation

Description of key audit matter:

The Group deal with its main customers on credit, so Group's receivables are exposed to the credit risk. When the customer defaults, the receivables may be impaired. Since the collectability assessment of receivables depends on management's judgment. Consequently, this is one of the key assessment areas in our audit.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Understanding impairment policy applied to the receivables by the management; assessing whether it is based on appropriate accounting policies. Inquiring the management whether there was any receivable with difficulty to collect; performing a sampling procedure to check the correctness of the aging of receivables and to review the collection of receivables in the subsequent period to understand if there were any significant overdue receivables to evaluated the provisions for impairment of receivables are adequate.

Other Matter

T3EX Global Holdings Corp. has prepared its parent company only financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, on which we have expressed an unqualified opinion.

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

19

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 with the IFRSs, IASs, IFRC, SIC endorsed and issued into effect 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 (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 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 assets the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

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

  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 conduct 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 auditors’ 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 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

20

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 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 Chi Lung Yu and

Mei Pin Wu.

Independent Auditors’ Audit Report

To the Board of Directors of T3EX Global Holdings Corp.: Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of T3EX Global Holdings Corp. (“the Company”), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit of the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020 in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants, and the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Furthermore, we conducted our audit of the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019 in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants, Rule No. 1090360805 issued by the Financial Supervisory Commission, and the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Certified Public Accountants Code of Professional Ethics in 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 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.

1. Revenue recognition

Please refer to Note 4(m) "Revenue recognition" of financial statement and Note 6(q) "Revenue from contracts with customers" for the details of operating revenues of financial statements.

Description of key audit matter:

T3EX Global Holdings Corp. is an industrial holding company. Its main operating revenue is from the share of profit of associates accounted for using equity method and the services revenue from subsidiaries by providing management services. We expect that its revenue recognition is the matter to the users of the financial statements. Consequently, this is one of the key assessment areas in our audit on parent company only financial statements of T3EX Global Holding Corp.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Understanding the internal control on revenue recognition applied by the management and assessing whether its revenue recognition had been carried out in accordance with the established accounting policy; checking whether T3EX Global Holdings Corp. had calculated and recognized the share of profits and losses of its subsidiaries and associates by using the equity method; comparing the differences between the investment cost and the net equity of its subsidiaries and associates, to ensure that they had been properly handled. Issuing

26

confirmation letter to T3EX Global Holdings Corp.’s subsidiaries to inquire the amount of the management services fee.

  1. Equity method investees impairment assessment

Please refer to Note 4(l) "Impairment of non financial assets" for accounting policies, Note 5 "assumptions on the accounting estimates and assumptions of the impairment of Equity method investees" and Note 6 (e) for the details of Equity method investees in the financial statements.

Description of key audit matter:

The goodwill and other intangible assets arising from acquisition transactions booked as the investment under the equity method of parent company only financial statements. The accounting policy applying to the goodwill and other intangible assets arising from acquisition transactions is with the uncertainty estimation. Consequently, this is one of the key assessment areas in our audit on parent company only financial statements of T3EX Global Holding Corp.

How the matter was addressed in our audit:

Understanding the internal control on the impairment assessment of the goodwill and other intangible assets; selecting significant goodwill and other intangible assets and obtaining impairment assessment reports issued by the external experts engaged by the management; assessing model, parameters and assumptions applying to the financial information forecast; and evaluating whether the assessment for goodwill and other intangible assets was based on the accounting policies.

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

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of 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 (including the Audit Committee) are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Parent company only 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 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 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 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.

27

  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.

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

  3. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the 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 auditor’s 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 auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

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

  5. 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 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.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Chi Lung Yu and

Mei Pin Wu.

The number of shares in attendance shall be calculated according to the shares indicated by the attendance book and sign-in cards handed in plus the number of shares whose voting rights are exercised by correspondence or electronically.

The Chair shall call the meeting to order at the appointed meeting time. However, when the attending shareholders do not represent a majority of the total number of issued shares, the chair may announce a postponement, provided that no more than two such postponements, for a combined total of no more than one hour, may be made. If the quorum is not met after two postponements and the attending shareholders still represent less than one third of the total number of issued shares, the chair shall declare the meeting adjourned.

The provisions of the preceding paragraph apply mutatis mutandis to a shareholders meeting convened by a party with the power to convene that is

51

not the board of directors.

he chair may not declare the meeting adjourned prior to completion of deliberation on the meeting agenda of the preceding two paragraphs (including extraordinary motions), except by a resolution of the shareholders meeting. If the chair declares the meeting adjourned in violation of the rules of procedure, the other members of the board of directors shall promptly assist the attending shareholders in electing a new chair in accordance with statutory procedures, by agreement of a majority of the votes represented by the attending shareholders, and then continue the meeting.

The chair shall allow ample opportunity during the meeting for explanation and discussion of proposals and of amendments or extraordinary motions put forward by the shareholders; when the chair is of the opinion that a proposal has been discussed sufficiently to put it to a vote, the chair may announce the discussion closed, call for a vote, and schedule sufficient time for voting.

Article 10 Before speaking, an attending shareholder must specify on a speaker's slip

the subject of the speech, his/her shareholder account number (or attendance card number), and account name. The order in which shareholders speak will be set by the chair.

A shareholder in attendance who has submitted a speaker's slip but does not actually speak shall be deemed to have not spoken. When the content of the speech does not correspond to the subject given on the speaker's slip, the spoken content shall prevail.

Except with the consent of the chair, a shareholder may not speak more than twice on the same proposal, and a single speech may not exceed 5 minutes. If the shareholder's speech violates the rules or exceeds the scope of the agenda item, the chair may terminate the speech.

Article 11 Voting at a shareholders meeting shall be calculated based the number of shares.

With respect to resolutions of shareholders meetings, the number of shares held by a shareholder with no voting rights shall not be calculated as part of the total number of issued shares.

When a shareholder is an interested party in relation to an agenda item, and there is the likelihood that such a relationship would prejudice the interests of this Corporation, that shareholder may not vote on that item, and may not exercise voting rights as proxy for any other shareholder.

The number of shares for which voting rights may not be exercised under the preceding paragraph shall not be calculated as part of the voting rights represented by attending shareholders.

With the exception of a trust enterprise or a shareholder services agent approved by the competent securities authority, when one person is concurrently appointed as proxy by two or more shareholders, the voting rights represented by that proxy may not exceed three percent of the voting rights represented by the total number of issued shares. If that percentage is exceeded, the voting rights in excess of that percentage shall not be included in the calculation.

Article 12 A shareholder shall be entitled to one vote for each share held, except when the shares are restricted shares or are deemed non-voting shares under Article 179, paragraph 2 of the Company Act.

  • When this Corporation holds a shareholder meeting, it shall adopt exercise of voting rights by electronic means and may adopt exercise of voting rights by correspondence. When voting rights are exercised by correspondence or electronic means, the method of exercise shall be specified in the shareholders meeting notice. A shareholder exercising voting rights by correspondence or electronic means will be deemed to have attended the meeting in person, but to have waived his/her rights with respect to the extraordinary motions and amendments to original proposals of that meeting; it is therefore advisable that this Corporation avoid the submission of extraordinary motions and amendments to original proposals. A shareholder intending to exercise voting rights by correspondence or electronic means under the preceding paragraph shall deliver a written declaration of intent to this Corporation before two days before the date of the shareholders meeting. When duplicate declarations of intent are

53

delivered, the one received earliest shall prevail, except when a declaration is made to cancel the earlier declaration of intent.

After a shareholder has exercised voting rights by correspondence or electronic means, in the event the shareholder intends to attend the shareholders meeting in person, a written declaration of intent to retract the voting rights already exercised under the preceding paragraph shall be made known to this Corporation, by the same means by which the voting rights were exercised, before two business days before the date of the shareholders meeting. If the notice of retraction is submitted after that time, the voting rights already exercised by correspondence or electronic means shall prevail. When a shareholder has exercised voting rights both by correspondence or electronic means and by appointing a proxy to attend a shareholders meeting, the voting rights exercised by the proxy in the meeting shall prevail.

Except as otherwise provided in the Company Act and in this Corporation's articles of incorporation, the passage of a proposal shall require an affirmative vote of a majority of the voting rights represented by the attending shareholders. At the time of a vote, for each proposal, the chair or a person designated by the chair shall first announce the total number of voting rights represented by the attending shareholders, followed by a poll of the shareholders. After the conclusion of the meeting, on the same day it is held, the results for each proposal, based on the numbers of votes for and against and the number of abstentions, shall be entered into the MOPS.

When there is an amendment or an alternative to a proposal, the chair shall present the amended or alternative proposal together with the original proposal and decide the order in which they will be put to a vote. When any one among them is passed, the other proposals will then be deemed rejected, and no further voting shall be required.

Vote monitoring and counting personnel for the voting on a proposal shall be appointed by the chair, provided that all monitoring personnel shall be shareholders of this Corporation.

Vote counting for shareholders meeting proposals or elections shall be conducted in public at the place of the shareholders meeting. Immediately after vote counting has been completed, the results of the voting, including the statistical tallies of the numbers of votes, shall be announced on-site at the meeting, and a record made of the vote.

Article 13 The election of directors at a shareholders meeting shall be held in

54

accordance with the applicable election and appointment rules adopted by this Corporation, and the voting results shall be announced on-site immediately, including the names of those elected as directors and the numbers of votes with which they were elected.

The ballots for the election referred to in the preceding paragraph shall be sealed with the signatures of the monitoring personnel and kept in proper custody for at least one year. If, however, a shareholder files a lawsuit pursuant to Article 189 of the Company Act, the ballots shall be retained until the conclusion of the litigation.

  • Article 14 Matters relating to the resolutions of a shareholders meeting shall be recorded in the meeting minutes. The meeting minutes shall be signed or sealed by the chair of the meeting and a copy distributed to each shareholder within 20 days after the conclusion of the meeting. The meeting minutes may be produced and distributed in electronic form. This Corporation may distribute the meeting minutes of the preceding paragraph by means of a public announcement made through the MOPS. The meeting minutes shall accurately record the year, month, day, and place of the meeting, the chair's full name, the methods by which resolutions were adopted, and a summary of the deliberations and their voting results (including the number of voting rights), and disclose the number of voting rights won by each candidate in the event of an election of directors. The minutes shall be retained for the duration of the existence of this Corporation.

  • Article 15 On the day of a shareholders meeting, this Corporation shall compile in the prescribed format a statistical statement of the number of shares obtained by solicitors through solicitation and the number of shares represented by proxies, and shall make an express disclosure of the same at the place of the shareholders meeting.

  • If matters put to a resolution at a shareholders meeting constitute material information under applicable laws or regulations shall upload the content of such resolution to the MOPS within the prescribed time period.

Article 16 Staff handling administrative affairs of a shareholders meeting shall wear identification cards or arm bands.

The chair may direct the proctors or security personnel to help maintain order at the meeting place. When proctors or security personnel help

55

maintain order at the meeting place, they shall wear an identification card or armband bearing the word "Proctor."

At the place of a shareholders meeting, if a shareholder attempts to speak through any device other than the public address equipment set up by this Corporation, the chair may prevent the shareholder from so doing.

When a shareholder violates the rules of procedure and defies the chair's correction, obstructing the proceedings and refusing to heed calls to stop, the chair may direct the proctors or security personnel to escort the shareholder from the meeting.

Article 17 When a meeting is in progress, the chair may announce a break based on time considerations. If a force majeure event occurs, the chair may rule the meeting temporarily suspended and announce a time when, in view of the circumstances, the meeting will be resumed.

If the meeting venue is no longer available for continued use and not all of the items (including extraordinary motions) on the meeting agenda have been addressed, the shareholders meeting may adopt a resolution to resume the meeting at another venue.

A resolution may be adopted at a shareholders meeting to defer or resume the meeting within five days in accordance with Article 182 of the Company Act.
