Board Members and Key Management Succession Planning:

(1) Succession Plan and Operation for Board Members

1. Board Composition Principles

The composition of the Company’s board members is determined based on business development needs and major shareholders’ holdings, considering practical operational requirements. The company’s Articles of Incorporation and Board Election Procedures clearly state that board elections shall fully adopt a candidate nomination system in accordance with Article 192-1 of the Company Act. Additionally, the Corporate Governance Best Practice Principles specifies that the board composition should consider diversity and develop diversity policies based on company operations, business model, and development needs.

2. Director Candidate Database and Selection Criteria

The company establishes a board candidate database according to the following criteria for succession planning:

(1) Entrepreneurial spirit, accountability, integrity, teamwork orientation aligning with the company’s core values and mid-to-long-term business strategies.

(2) Familiarity with the industry and relevant industry experience, achieving the goal of at least one female director in the 12^th board elected in 2023.

(3) Ability to contribute to an effective, collaborative, diverse board that meets company needs.

(4)Possession of professional knowledge and skills relevant to business management, including corporate strategy, accounting and taxation, finance, law, management, and international markets.

3. Internal Talent Development Aligned with Board Functions

The Company continues to promote the inclusion of management professionals in the Board of Directors or the Boards of Directors of subsidiaries, enabling them to become familiar with the operations of the Board. This initiative enhances their industry experience and decision-making skills, thereby forming a succession team for the Board.

4. Performance Evaluation of Board of Directors

The Company has clearly defined the “Rules for Performance Evaluation of Board of Directors,” which include evaluation criteria such as the alignment with the Company’s goals and objectives, attention to sustainability (ESG), understanding of responsibilities, involvement in operations, management of internal relationships and communication, professional competence and continuous learning, internal control, and the provision of constructive feedback. These criteria ensure the effectiveness of the Board’s operations and serve as a basis for assessing Board performance, which will be used as a reference for future director selection.

(2) The Succession Plan and Operation of Key Management Personnel

1.  The Company has established the “Succession Planning for Senior Manager” to implement a talent selection mechanism that identifies potential successors for key management roles. We prioritize promoting outstanding internal talents to management positions. Besides identifying potential candidates, we conduct regular performance evaluations and provide personalized development plans and mentorship to enhance succession readiness and shorten transition time.

2. The Company has established a comprehensive deputy system, arranging the deputies of key management to perform tasks and gain experience to strengthen the high-level decision making and management capabilities.

3. The company arranges for management to attend board meetings and participate in key regular management meetings, appoints management as board members of subsidiaries, and enhances skills in corporate governance, sustainability, board operations, and business practices. This ensures they contribute to the company’s strategic vision and are prepared for future key management roles.

4. In 2025, the company targets frontline supervisors, middle managers, and potential successors based on performance reviews and talent suitability to develop outstanding leaders, strengthen team execution, and lay a solid foundation for long-term growth. Through one-on-one feedback sessions and structured training programs, we aim to enhance leadership, decision-making, and innovation skills to support the company’s sustainable goals.
