(2) Decision-making procedures and mechanisms for the company’s profit distribution:
When formulating the annual profit distribution plan, the Company shall comprehensively consider such factors as the characteristics of its industry, its stage of development, its business model, its profitability, its cash flow position, and whether there are any significant capital expenditure commitments. The aforementioned profit distribution plan may be submitted to the Shareholders’ Meeting for deliberation only after it has been approved by a majority of all directors and after the independent directors have expressed their clear opinions thereon.
When reviewing the aforementioned profit distribution proposal, the company’s board of directors shall conduct thorough research and deliberation on matters such as the timing, conditions, and minimum ratio for cash dividends.
When the Company convenes a shareholders’ meeting to deliberate the aforementioned profit distribution proposal, it shall proactively engage in communication and dialogue with shareholders, particularly small and medium-sized shareholders, through multiple channels, fully solicit their views and concerns, and promptly respond to the issues of concern to these shareholders.
(3) Conditions, decision-making procedures, and mechanisms for the Company’s adjustment of its profit distribution policy:
In the event of force majeure, or if there are significant changes in the external business environment or in the Company’s own operating conditions, the Company may adjust its profit distribution policy.
In the course of reviewing and deliberating on adjustments to the profit distribution policy, the company’s board of directors shall give full consideration to the views of independent directors and minority shareholders; moreover, the adjusted profit distribution policy must not violate the relevant regulations issued by the China Securities Regulatory Commission and the stock exchanges.
