Ethical Corporate Management
Integrity Management Policy
To implement the integrity management policy, the company has established an "Integrity Management Code" and "Integrity Management Procedures and Behavioral Guidelines" in accordance with the "Code of Integrity Management for Listed and Over-the-Counter Companies" jointly formulated by the Taiwan Stock Exchange and the GreTai Securities Market. These guidelines clearly define the behavior standards that must be adhered to by directors, managers, employees, appointed individuals, or those with substantial control over the company while conducting business. Any dishonest behavior is strictly prohibited. The company has also established effective accounting systems and internal control procedures, which are regularly audited by the internal audit department.

- The company also notifies and reminds internal personnel (including directors and managers) via email of trading restrictions during blackout periods prior to the announcement of financial reports, to prevent unintentional violations by directors.
- Relevant information on corporate governance and updates on laws and regulations are periodically provided to directors for their reference.
- Senior management communicates the importance of integrity to employees during management meetings or via email.
