(II) Conditions of issuance:

(III) Qualification criteria for employees:
-
Only full-time employees of WNC who are employed as of the date of the granting of the restricted stock awards (RSAs) and who meet certain performance requirements are eligible for this incentive plan. Eligible employees must also be those who: (a) are key personnel for WNC’s future development and (b) have shown themselves to be very valuable to WNC via their work performance.
-
The number of RSAs granted to each eligible employee will be determined by the Chairman by referencing WNC’s operational requirements and business development strategies as well as job position, job grade, work performance, overall contribution and potential future contribution of the eligible employees. The RSAs will then be submitted to the Board of Directors for approval. Before the RSAs are granted, the list of eligible employees who are directors or executive officers and the list of those who are not will be sent to the Remuneration Committee and the Audit Committee respectively for approval, and then both lists will be sent to the Board of Directors for review and approval.
(IV) Reasons for issuance of RSAs: To attract and retain key talent as well as enhance employee cohesiveness and sense of belonging in order to maximize benefit for WNC and its shareholders.
(V) The estimated expense amount, dilution of WNC’s earnings per share (EPS) and other impact on stockholder equity:
-
Estimated expense amount:
Based on the closing price of WNC common stock of NT$156.5 on March 11, 2026 (the business day prior to the BOD meeting) and after factoring in the employees’ vesting conditions, the estimated yearly amortization expense for RSA issuance for 2026, 2027, 2028, and 2029 will be NT$32,800,000; NT$443,417,000; NT$443,417,000; and NT$410,616,000, respectively. -
Dilution of WNC’s EPS and any other impact on shareholder equity:
Based on the aggregate of 483,663,719 outstanding shares of WNC, the estimated dilution of WNC’s EPS for 2026, 2027, 2028, and 2029 will be NT$0.07, NT$0.92, NT$0.92, and NT$0.85, respectively. -
Based on the information above, the dilution of WNC’s future EPS is expected to be limited, and there should be no material impact on existing shareholders’ equity.
