c) CHIEF issued new shares in March 2020, December 2020, March 2021 and December 2021 as its employees exercised options.  Therefore, the Company’s ownership interest in CHIEF decreased to 59.08% and 58.89% as of December 31, 2020 and 2021, respectively.

d) CHTSC issued new shares in February 2021 as its employees exercised options.  Therefore, the Company’s ownership interest in CHTSC decreased to 77.46% as of December 31, 2021.

e) Chunghwa obtained 20.38% ownership interest in IISI in July 2020 and Chunghwa’s ownership interest in IISI increased to 51.54% by considering the previously held ownership interest in IISI.  Chunghwa obtained over half of the seats of the Board of Directors of IISI; therefore, Chunghwa gained control over IISI and treated it as a subsidiary.  IISI issued new shares in September 2020 and January 2021 as its employees exercised options; therefore, the Company’s ownership interest in IISI decreased to 51.20% and 51.02% as of December 31, 2020 and 2021, respectively.
