2. Communication Between Independent Directors and the Chief Auditor:

(1) The Chief Auditor may directly contact independent directors as needed. Communication has been smooth and effective.

(2) A monthly electronic report summarizing the audit findings and the status of corrective actions from the previous month is submitted to independent directors for review. If independent directors have any questions or instructions, they communicate via phone, email, or in person. In the event of any significant violations or whistleblower cases involving directors, the matter is reported to independent directors immediately.

(3) During regular Audit Committee meetings, the Chief Auditor reports key audit activities to the independent directors, responds to their inquiries, and strengthens risk control measures as instructed. The execution and effectiveness of audit tasks have been thoroughly communicated.
