Wei-Lung Chen/Independent Director of IBF Financial Holdings Co., Ltd.
(the first proposal):
(1)The Company's autonomy in capital increase in cash shall not be damaged
by the share exchange agreement.
(2)The Company's application for merger and acquisition of Entie Commercial
Bank, Ltd. by executing a share exchange agreement has been determined by
the Financial Supervisory Commission on January 27, 2022 that the
application shall be postponed, and the application was officially
rejected. As of today, the Company has not held a board meeting to
discuss whether to restart another merger and acquisition case. In other
words, there is no merger and acquisition case in progress at present.
As the share exchange agreement originally executed by the parties is no
longer applied since the application was rejected by the competent
authority,there is no such rules that the fundraising shall be subject
to the negotiation with or agreement by the counterparty "before the share
exchange record date", or further, after the fundraising takes effect, the
application of the transaction price adjustment shall be subject to the
negotiation with he counterparty.
(3)In the proposal, it is emphasized that, when the Company conducts a
capital increase, the Company shall negotiate with Entie Commercial
Bank, Ltd., in advance, and shall negotiate the "transaction price
adjustment" afterwards both of which violate the Company's "autonomy"
for fundraising. The validity of the share exchange agreement shall be
clarified before proceeding.
6.Countermeasures:This case is approved by half of the Audit Committee
members, and shall be sent to the Board of Directors for discussion
and resolution.
7.Any other matters that need to be specified:N/A.
