The company currently has a total of 9 directors (including 4 independent directors). According to the "Articles of Incorporation," the election of directors fully adopts the candidate nomination system. The "Corporate Governance Best Practice Principles" and the "Rules for Election of Directors" stipulate that the composition of the board of directors should consider diversity. The board should be composed of elites from various industries and experts from different fields, taking into account the company's operations, business model, and development. The future composition and member backgrounds of the company's board of directors will continue the current structure. The succession of board members - the chairman should have considerable expertise and vision in management, major decision-making, and corporate governance, and be capable of leading the company towards internationalization and diversified development.

The background information, education, concurrent positions in other companies, and the operation of the board of directors and various functional committees of the company's board members have been disclosed on the company's website and in the annual report. In response to the international focus and trends on corporate governance and corporate social responsibility development in recent years, the company encourages directors to pursue further education.
