Our company has established the "Corporate Governance Guidelines," which stipulate that the composition of the board of directors should take into account diversity. With the exception that directors concurrently serving as company executives should not exceed one-third of the total directorships, the guidelines further outline a policy for diversification based on the company's operations, business model, and development needs, establishing basic criteria and expertise in knowledge and skills.

The following is an excerpt from Article 20 of our company's "Corporate Governance Guidelines" regarding the policy on the diversification of board members: "The structure of the board of directors of our company should be determined based on the scale of business development and the shareholding situation of major shareholders, taking into account practical operational needs. The appropriate number of directorships should be decided to be five or more. Board members should consider diversification, and no more than one-third of the directorships should be held by directors concurrently serving as company executives.

Additionally, a suitable diversification policy should be formulated based on the company's operations, business model, and development needs. This policy should encompass, but is not limited to, the following two major aspects:

1.Basic qualifications and values: Gender, age, nationality, and culture

2.Professional knowledge and skills: Professional background (such as law, accounting, industry, finance, marketing, or technology), professional skills, and industry experience


All members of the board shall have the knowledge, skills, and experience necessary to perform their duties. To achieve the ideal goal of corporate governance, the board of directors shall possess the following abilities:

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


Jarllytech considers diversity in board members, in addition to their professional backgrounds. The company currently has seven directors, including four independent directors. One of the independent directors is female. The board members have a diverse range of professional backgrounds, including management, engineering, law, accounting, and industry management. The board members' knowledge and experience in different industries and academia can provide professional opinions from different perspectives, which is of great benefit to improving the company's operating performance and management efficiency.


The proportion of board members with employee status is 28.5%, and the proportion of independent directors is 57%. Jarllytech also pays attention to gender equality in the composition of board members. The target proportion of female directors is 25% or more. Currently, there are seven directors, including one female director, for a ratio of approximately 14.29%. The term of office of three independent directors is less than three years, the term of office of one independent director is 4-6 years, and three directors are aged 60-75, while four are under 60.


Jarllytech directors and managers are required to participate in education and training on insider trading prevention management regulations and relevant laws and regulations at least once a year. New directors and managers are provided with timely education and training within three months of their appointment. Pursuant to the "Internal Major Information Processing and Insider Trading Prevention Management Procedures" revised on August 9, 2023, Jarllytech regularly reminds directors and insiders not to trade stocks during the closed period of 30 days before the announcement of the annual financial report and 15 days before the announcement of the quarterly financial report.

In 2023, Jarllytech conducted relevant education and training for directors and managers for a total of 15 hours, covering insider trading, attribution rights, and shareholder changes.


Jarllytech Succession Plan:

The company's succession plan requires that successors not only have the ability to work, but also have values that are consistent with the company. The personality traits required include leadership, interpersonal skills, communication skills, innovation, integrity, commitment, and the ability to win customer trust. Currently, the company is implementing the succession plan. The former chairman, Liu, has stepped down as vice chairman to assist the new chairman, Chang, Tai-Yuan. Chang, Tai-Yuan will continue to serve as general manager for a short period of time. Within five years, one of the five current vice presidents and assistants will be selected to succeed the general manager position, depending on the company's development needs.

The training model for successors to senior management positions in the Jarlly Group is divided into four modules: management skills, professional skills, personal development plan, and job rotation. Each module is planned to take approximately 1-1.5 years. Through professional skills training, trainees can integrate and apply their knowledge and skills to develop decision-making judgment. The Jarlly culture is to give priority to giving opportunities to internal employees who are prepared, unless there is still no suitable candidate at that time, in which case the company will look for a suitable professional manager.
