Diversity and Independence of the Board

The Company clearly states its diversity policy and approval process in the “Rules for Election of Directors.” The members of the Company’s Board of Directors are nominated via rigorous selection processes. It not only considers background diversity, professional competence and experience, but also attaches great importance to his/her personal reputation on ethics and leadership. In order to implement the goal of diversity in the composition of Board of Directors and in accordance with Article 20 of the Company’s “Corporate Governance Best Practice Principles”, an appropriate policy on diversity mainly includes the following two general standards:

  1. Basic requirements and value: gender, age, nationality, and culture.
  2. Professional knowledge and skills: a professional background, professional skills and industry experience.

At present, the Board of Directors is composed of seven directors with three independent directors, whose terms of office do not exceed three consecutive terms. None of the three independent directors serves as independent director of more than three Taiwanese Public Companies concurrently. There is one female director in the Board. The Company will plan to increase the number of female directors in the future in order to achieve the goal of having 1/3 female directors to serve on the Board. Presently, the seven directors represent diversified perspectives, including a complementary mix of skills, experiences, and backgrounds such as that from the industry, academia, media and finance/accounting field. The following table demonstrates the implementation of the diversity policy for Board members.
