According to the Company Act as amended in May 2015 and the amendments to the Chunghwa’s Articles of Incorporation approved by the Chunghwa’s stockholders in their meeting on June 24, 2016, Chunghwa shall distribute employees’ compensation at the rates from 1.7% to 4.3% and remuneration to directors not higher than 0.17%, respectively, of pre-tax income.  As of December 31, 2017, the payables of the employees’ compensation and the remuneration to directors were $1,596 million and $41 million, respectively.  Such amounts have been approved by the Chunghwa’s Board of Directors on March 13, 2018 and will be reported to the stockholders in their meeting planned to be held on June 15, 2018.

The compensation to the employees and remuneration to the directors of 2015 and 2016 approved by the Board of Directors on March 11, 2016 and March 7, 2017, respectively, were as follows.
