Board Member Succession Plan

The Company adopts a candidate nomination system for the election of directors, with each term lasting three years. In addition to meeting the requirements stipulated by laws and the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, the election of directors also considers corporate governance development, operational needs, and board diversity to strengthen board functions.

To enhance the efficiency of the director nomination process and operations, the Company established the Nomination Committee on May 8, 2025, to strengthen the candidate selection mechanism as an important part of succession planning.

The Company values the professional growth of directors and arranges annual training courses covering topics such as corporate governance, economy, environment, social responsibility, and regulatory compliance to improve decision-making quality and responsiveness.

In 2024, the total training hours for all board members reached 78 hours, averaging more than 11 hours per director, demonstrating the Company’s emphasis on and implementation of professional training for directors. This also reflects the directors’ commitment to continuous self-improvement, laying a solid governance foundation for promoting the Company’s sustainable operations.
