Diversity policy
The company's board member diversity policy is based on the "Corporate Governance Best Practice Principles for TWSE Listed Companies." The composition of the board members should consider diversity, and aside from directors who also serve as company managers, their number should not exceed one-third of the board seats. Additionally, appropriate diversity policies should be formulated based on the company's operations, operational model, and development needs, which should include but not be limited to the following two major aspects:
1. Basic conditions and values: gender, age, nationality, and culture, among which the ratio of female directors should reach one-third of the board seats.
2. Professional Knowledge and Skills: Professional background (such as law, accounting, industry, finance, marketing, or technology), professional skills, and industry experience.
Board members should generally possess the knowledge, skills, and qualities necessary to perform their duties. To achieve the ideal goals of corporate governance, the overall capabilities that the board should possess are as follows:
1. Operational judgment ability. 2. Accounting and financial analysis ability. 3. Management ability. 4. Crisis management ability. 5. Industry knowledge. 6. International market perspective. 7. Leadership ability. 8. Decision-making ability.
Specific management goals of the diversity policy
The diversity of board members contributes to the effective functioning of the board. The nomination and selection of board members of the company are in accordance with the provisions of the company's articles of association and adopt a candidate nomination system to ensure the diversity and independence of board members. In addition to ensuring that the number of directors who are also company managers does not exceed one-third of the board seats, the number of directors of a single gender reaches one-third, and directors with different professional knowledge and skills are selected to provide diverse perspectives and contributions, further enhancing the functions of the board.

The professional backgrounds of the directors cover multiple areas such as industry, accounting, technology, and management, and possess the knowledge, skills, and competencies necessary to perform their duties.
