● Succession planning and operation of the Company's Board of Directors and key management personnel

(1) The following criteria are used to establish a database of director candidates for the Company's ongoing succession plan:
A. Integrity, responsibility, innovation and decision-making ability, in line with the Company's core values, and with expertise and skills that contribute to the management of the Company.
B. In terms of the Board of Directors’ expertise on the whole, industry experience (such as real estate, law, banking, accounting, and tax) and expertise (such as business management, decision-making, crisis management, and industry knowledge) related to the business of the Company are required.
C. The addition of this member is expected to provide the Company with a Board of Directors that is effective, diverse and responsive to the Company's needs.
(2) The Company has formulated the "Evaluation Methods for the Board of Directors" and regularly conducts performance evaluations. Through relevant measurement items, including mastery of the Company’s goals and tasks, awareness of directors’ responsibilities, participation in the Company’s operations, internal relationship management and communication, directors’ professionalism and continuing education, internal control, and specific opinion expression, the Company can confirm the effective operation of the Board of Directors and evaluate the performance of directors, as a reference for future selection of directors.
(3) The Chairman of the Company is young and promising, and his leadership style is energetic and positive. Therefore, in case of major decisions, the Chairman of the Board of Directors discusses the decision direction with senior executives (Executive Vice President and CFO), and the senior executives lead a number of middle level executives (Assistant Vice Presidents and Managers). The roles played by the middle level executives are mainly: implement the decisions, deliver to junior employees, and communicate with senior managers.
(4) The Company provides training opportunities (internal or external) to enable management staff to enhance their professional knowledge and skills, which in turn improves work efficiency. Middle executives also participate in regular executive meetings and departmental meetings. In addition, The Company has implemented the duty agent mechanism, when senior executives are on leave or on business trips, middle executives are assigned to perform duties on their behalf. Therefore, through the communication and discussion process in meetings and the duty agent mechanism, the middle executives have been able to accumulate experience, not only to cultivate the ability, but also to convey the Company's core values and future blueprint, so as to avoid a manpower gap in the Company. In this way, they are able to achieve a consistent direction of the Company's overall operation and to meet the rapidly changing environment.
