operations under the laws, its business objectives, the Articles of Association, as well as resolutions of shareholders’ meetings.

to efficiently perform their duties for the Company, comprising: six executive directors, three independent directors, in
consistency with the proportion specified by the Office of the SEC. The Chairman of the Board of Directors is an independent director by the definition of the SET and has no relationship with management and is not the President, so as to separate

        <br />
       The Board of Directors establishes the policy on limitation to the number of listed companies in which
each director will hold office as director which shall not exceed five companies, without any exemption, since, after considering
the matter, it is deemed that such number enables all directors to devote their time to regularly attend meetings. In this
regard, the Board of Directors has not established the policy on limitation to the number of term of office as director since
directors have a good understanding of the Company’s business and provide suggestions which are useful for both the
Company and shareholders. Furthermore, the Board of Directors also appoints the Company Secretary in accordance with
the guidelines under the Corporate Governance Code to provide suggestions relating to various laws and regulations as
required by the Board of Directors and to supervise activities of the Board of Directors as well as coordinating to ensure
compliance with the Board of Directors’ resolutions.
        <br />
       The Board of Directors establishes the policy on holding of office as director in other companies by the
President, whereby the Board of Directors’ meetings shall be notified of reasons and details of companies in which he/she
holds such office, which shall not exceed five listed companies.
