The Company's Review Committee held a meeting today and the Review Committee's additional comments are as follows: 1. The ASE Response expresses that, in accordance with law, ASE's tender offer could not be publicly disclosed prior to being made and that due to legal restrictions, ASE could not notify the Company beforehand. However, according to legal research, laws and regulations do not prohibit a company making a tender offer from communicating with the target company of the tender offer in order to facilitate the tender offer process.
