| Q1: |
How can I register the loss of specimen seal? |
|
|
It is necessary to fill out the written application form for reporting the loss of specimen seal wherein the serial number and quantity of the shares shall be specified. Then, the applicant shall submit the application form, together with the applicant's ID card and a photocopy thereof, new specimen seal and stock certificates (for shares bought in from the exchange market or for which the ownership transfer is registered), to the Company personally. (If the applicant who is a natural person files the application via another person or mail, he/she shall also submit the certificate of specimen seal issued by the household administration office or the original of his/her ID card. If the juristic shareholder shall attach the notice of application). Except the new specimen which shall be effective on the same day of declaration, the others shall become effective as of the following day.
(1)Where the application is filed via mail, the domestic shareholders shall attach the originals of their ID cards, while the foreign shareholders shall attach their ID certified documents issued by the overseas agencies of this country.
(2)Where the shareholder appoints another person to file the application, the appointee shall be the national of this country and submit the documents referred to in the preceding paragraph (1) together with his/her ID card and the proxy.

| Q2: |
How should I do if I want to change the specimen seal but the old one is still applied? |
|
|
It is necessary to fill out the written application form for changing the specimen seal wherein the serial number and quantity of the shares shall be specified with affixation of the new and old specimen seals. Then, the application form, new specimen seal and stock certificates (bought from the securities market or for which the ownership transfer is registered) shall be submitted to the Company to complete the procedure for change of specimen seal. The change will be effective on the following day.
|
| Q3: |
How should I do if I want to proceed with change of specimen seal but the shares are being pledged? |
|
|
It is not necessary to present the shares under pledge when proceeding with the change of specimen seal. However, once the pledge is removed in the future, it is necessary to present the shares affixed with the changed specimen seal to the Company.
|
| Q4: |
How can I proceed with the change of specimen seal if the shareholder changes his/her name? |
|
|
It is necessary to attach the documentary evidence for the change of name (transcript of household register), photocopy of ID card, new specimen seal, stock certificates and certificate of the new specimen seal.
|
| Q5: |
How can I proceed with the change of address? |
|
|
Where shareholders have not yet furnished the certificates of specimen seal, it is only necessary for them to denote the change of address when furnishing the certificates of specimen seal. Otherwise, they shall fill out the written application form affixed with the original specimen seal and send the form back to the Company.
|
| Q6: |
Why didn't you change your data after I change my address? |
|
|
We have to make sure whether the shareholder makes the change at this Company or at the securities supplier's place, because the central depository company will transfer the data to the Company only when the ownership transfer is ceased. Therefore, if the shareholder changes his/her address at the securities supplier's place before that, it is impossible for this Company to update the data timely. Given this, we suggest that the shareholder should apply for such change with this Company and the securities supplier concurrently.
|
| Q7: |
Can I call to change the address? |
|
|
No, you can't. Where the communication address or domicile indicated in the shareholder's certificate of specimen seal is changed, the shareholder shall send a written notice affixed with his/her original specimen seal to this Company.
|
| Q8: |
I hold the shares of Formosa Plastics, Na Ya, Formosa Chemicals & Fibre, Tainan Science-based Industry Park and Formosa Petrochemical concurrently. Can I only proceed with the change of address, if any, with one of those companies? |
|
|
No. Where the shareholder's communication address or domicile is changed, the shareholder shall apply for change of the address in writing with each company.
|
| Q9: |
What can I do if the shareholder holds two account numbers due to ID number in error? What should I do if the ID No. overlaps others'? |
|
|
If the ID No. overlaps others', please proceed with the change of ID No. with the household administration office (to be applied for by the younger one) and then submit the transcript of household register and photocopy of the new ID card to this Company.
