SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of China. For the convenience of readers, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been translated into English from the original Chinese version prepared and used in the Republic of China. If there is any conflict between the English version and the original Chinese version or any difference in the interpretation of the two versions, the Chinese-language consolidated financial statements shall prevail. However, the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include the English translation of the additional footnote disclosures that are not required under generally accepted accounting principles but are required by the Securities and Futures Bureau (SFB) for their oversight purposes. The significant accounting policies of the Corporation and its subsidiaries are summarized as follows: Basis of Consolidation The consolidated companies are the Corporation’s direct or indirect subsidiaries of which the Corporation holds more than 50% of their respective common shares and all other direct or indirect investees over which the Corporation has substantive control. All significant intercompany transactions or balances were eliminated during the consolidation. The Corporation acquired 100% of the stock of Gueishan Island Marine Biology Development Co., Ltd. (“Gueishan Island”) in December 2012. Thus, Gueishan Island was included in the consolidated financial statement as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012. Foreign-currency Transactions The subsidiaries’ financial statements expressed in foreign currencies have been translated into New Taiwan dollars at the following exchange rates: Assets and liabilities - year-end spot rate; stockholders’ equity - historical exchange rate; and income statement accounts - current year’s average rate. Differences resulting from the above translation are recorded as “cumulative translation adjustments” under the stockholders’ equity. Nonderivative foreign-currency transactions are recorded in New Taiwan dollars at the rates of exchange in effect when the transactions occur. Exchange differences arising from the settlement of foreign-currency assets and liabilities are recognized in profit or loss. At the balance sheet date, foreign-currency monetary assets and liabilities are revalued using prevailing exchange rates, and the exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss. At the balance sheet date, foreign-currency nonmonetary assets that are carried at cost continue to be stated at exchange rates at trade dates. Accounting Estimates Under the above guidelines and principles, certain estimates and assumptions have been used for the allowance for doubtful accounts; allowance for loss on inventories; depreciation of property and equipment; deferred charges amortized; impairment of assets; income tax; pension cost; bonuses to employees, directors and supervisors; etc. Actual results may differ from these estimates. - 10 - Current and Noncurrent Assets and Liabilities Current assets include cash and those held primarily for trading purposes or to be realized, sold or consumed within one year from the balance sheet date. All other assets such as property and equipment and intangible assets are classified as noncurrent. Current liabilities are obligations incurred for trading purposes or to be settled within one year from the balance sheet date. All other liabilities are classified as noncurrent. Financial Instruments at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss Financial instruments classified as financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) include financial assets or financial liabilities held for trading. The Corporation and its subsidiaries recognize a financial asset or a financial liability on its balance sheet when the Corporation and its subsidiaries become parties to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. A financial asset is derecognized when the Corporation and its subsidiaries lose control of their contractual rights over the financial asset. A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation specified in the relevant contract is discharged, canceled or expired. Financial instruments at FVTPL are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at FVTPL are recognized immediately in profit or loss. At each balance sheet date subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets or financial liabilities at FVTPL are remeasured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized directly in profit or loss in the year in which they arise. On derecognition of a financial asset or a financial liability, the difference between its carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable or consideration paid and payable is recognized in profit or loss. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis. A derivative that does not meet the criteria for hedge accounting is classified as a financial asset or a financial liability held for trading. If the fair value of the derivative is positive, the derivative is recognized as a financial asset; otherwise, the derivative is recognized as a financial liability. Fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities at the balance sheet date are determined as follows: Publicly traded stocks - at closing prices; open-end mutual funds - at net asset values; financial assets and financial liabilities without quoted prices in an active market - at values determined using valuation techniques; and derivatives - at values calculated using bank-quoted prices. Noncurrent Assets Classified as Held for Sale Noncurrent assets that meet the held-for-sale criteria are measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value. If the carrying amount exceeds the asset's fair value less costs to sell, an impairment loss is recognized. Financial Assets Carried at Cost Investments in equity instruments with no quoted prices in an active market and with fair values that cannot be reliably measured, such as non-publicly traded stocks, are measured at their original cost. Cash dividends are recognized on the ex-dividend date, except for dividends distributed from the pre-acquisition profit, which are treated as a reduction of investment cost. Stock dividends are not recognized as investment income but are recorded as an increase in the number of shares. The total number of shares subsequent to the increase is used for the recalculation of cost per share. An impairment loss is recognized when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired. A reversal of this impairment loss is disallowed. - 11 - Impairment of Assets If the recoverable amount of an asset (mainly property and equipment and deferred charges) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is charged to earnings. If an impairment loss reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased accordingly, but the increased carrying amount may not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in earnings. Inventories Inventory is vessel fuel, which is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory write-downs are made by item. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of property and equipment are capitalized as part of the cost of those assets. Major additions, replacements and betterments are capitalized, while maintenance and repairs are expensed currently. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives, as follows: buildings, 50 years; transportation equipment, 5 years; vessel equipment, 3 to 25 years; office equipment, 3 to 8 years; leasehold improvements, lease terms. Property and equipment still in use beyond their original estimated useful lives are further depreciated over their newly estimated useful lives. The related cost and accumulated depreciation of property and equipment are derecognized from the balance sheet upon its disposal. Any gain or loss on disposal of the asset is included in nonoperating gains or losses in the period of disposal. Deferred Charges Deferred charges, mainly the costs of vessel overhaul, golf club memberships and syndicated loan fees, are initially recorded at cost and amortized using the straight-line method over 2 to 3 years, over 20 years and over loan terms, respectively. Convertible Bonds The Corporation first determines the carrying amount of the liability component by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated equity component, then determines the carrying amount of the equity component, representing the equity conversion option, by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the fair value of the convertible bonds as a whole. The liability component (excluding embedded derivatives) is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, while the embedded non-equity derivatives are measured at fair value. Upon bond conversion, the Corporation uses the aggregate carrying amount of the liability and equity components of the bonds at the time of conversion as a basis to record the common shares issued. Pension Under the defined benefit pension plan, pension cost is recognized on the basis of actuarial calculations. Unrecognized net transition obligation and the unrecognized net actuarial gain or loss are amortized using the straight-line method over the average remaining service years of employees. - 12 - Under the defined benefit pension plan, the minimum amount of pension liability should be recognized in the balance sheet. If the accrued pension liability already shown in the book is less than the minimum amount, the difference should be recognized as additional pension liability. If the additional liability does not exceed the sum of unrecognized prior service cost and unrecognized transitional net benefit obligation, the deferred pension cost account should be charged. Deferred pension cost is classified as an intangible asset. If the additional liability exceeds this sum, the excess should be charged to the net loss not yet recognized as net pension cost account, which is classified as a reduction of stockholders’ equity. Under the defined contribution plan, the required monthly contributions to employees’ individual pension accounts are recognized as pension cost. Income Tax The Corporation applies the inter-year allocation method to its income tax, whereby deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax effects of temporary differences. Valuation allowances are provided to the extent, if any, that it is more likely than not that deferred income tax assets will not be realized. A deferred income tax asset or liability is classified as current or noncurrent in accordance with the classification of the related asset or liability for financial reporting. However, if a deferred income tax asset or liability does not relate to an asset or liability in the financial statements, it is classified as current or noncurrent on the basis of the expected length of time before it is realized or settled. Adjustments of prior years’ tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current year’s tax provision. According to the Income Tax Law, an additional tax at 10% of unappropriated earnings is provided for as income tax in the year the stockholders approve the retention of earnings. Revenue Recognition, Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Revenue is recognized when the earnings process has been completed and the economic benefits associated with the transaction have been realized or are realizable. The revenues from vessel leases are recognized over the contract periods. Cargo revenues are recognized when the cargos are transported to the port of discharge. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts agreed between the Corporation and its subsidiaries and the customers for service rendered in the normal course of business. For trade receivables due within one year from the balance sheet date, as the nominal value of the consideration to be received approximates its fair value and transactions are frequent, fair value of the consideration is not determined by discounting all future receipts using an imputed rate of interest. An allowance for doubtful accounts is provided on the basis of a review of the collectability of accounts receivable. The Corporation and its subsidiaries make this review by an aging analysis of the outstanding receivables and assessing prior years’ collectability of receivables and economic situation. Reclassifications Certain accounts in the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011 have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012. - 13 - 3.

SFAS No. 41 requires the identification of operating segments on the basis of internal reports that are regularly reviewed by the Corporation's chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to the segments and assess their performance. This statement supersedes SFAS No. 20 - “Segment Reporting.” For this accounting change, the Corporation and its subsidiaries only changed the presentation of segment information. 4.

The credit line is $1.8 billion and the first loan drawdown should not be less than 60% of the credit line. The first repayment is due on the 18th month from the first loan drawdown date. The credit line will subsequently be decreased to zero over four periods semiannually. If the credit line drawdown exceeds the available credit line on the date the credit line is decreased, the Corporation should repay this excess immediately. b. The credit period is three years from the first loan drawdown date. c. Dong Lien Maritime S.A. Panama (“Dong Lien”) used its U.S. certificate of deposit as a collateral for a syndicated loan. Under the syndicated loan agreement, the Corporation directly own 100% of Dong Lien and Fortunate Maritime S.A. Panama (“Fortunate”). In addition, the Corporation should have the power to participate in the operating policy decisions of Dong Lien and Fortunate.

New Taiwan dollar demand deposits and U.S. certificate of deposit were used as collaterals for the above loan (b); U.S. certificate of deposit for loan (h) and (n); land for loan (l); land and building for loan (o); and vessel equipment, for other secured bank loans. 13. PENSION PLANS The pension plan adopted by the Corporation under the Labor Pension Act (LPA) is a defined contribution plan. Under the LPA, the Corporation makes monthly contributions to employees’ individual pension accounts at 6% of monthly salaries and wages. Related pension costs were $3,942 thousand in 2012 and $3,503 thousand in 2011. Based on the defined benefit plan adopted by the Corporation under the Labor Standards Law, pension payments are calculated on the basis of the length of service and average basic pay of the six months before retirement. The employee earns two base units each year for the first 15 years of service, and one base unit for each additional year thereafter, but not more than 45 base units in total. The Corporation contributes amounts equal to 4.3% of total monthly salaries and wages to a pension fund administered by the pension fund monitoring committee. The pension fund is deposited in the Bank of Taiwan in the committee’s name. Other information on the defined benefit plan of the Corporation is as follows: a.

STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY Under the Company Law, the capital surplus from shares issued in excess of par (additional paid-in capital from issuance of common shares and conversion of bonds) may be used to offset a deficit; in addition, when the Corporation has no deficit, such capital surplus may be distributed as cash dividends or transferred to capital (limited to a certain percentage of the Corporation’s paid-in capital and once a year). The capital surplus from employee stock options may not be used for any purpose. According to the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation, the legal reserve should be set aside at 10% of annual income less any deficit. Under Company Law, after a special reserve is appropriated or reversed, the remainder of income adding prior accumulated unappropriated retained earnings should be distributed at not less than 2% of employees’ bonus and at not higher than 5% of remuneration to directors and supervisors. And the above distributions should be approved by the board of directors at stockholders meeting. The Corporation’s dividend policy is based on the prudence principle, under which the Corporation considers the long-term financing structure and operation. Thus, when earnings and funds become sufficient for operating and expanding, then cash dividends or stock dividends will be distributed. The most recent dividend policy provides for the distribution of stock dividends at up to 50% of earnings and cash dividends of at least 50%. - 22 - For 2012 and 2011, earnings appropriations included the following: The bonuses to employees were estimated at $12,000 thousand and $16,000 thousand, respectively, and the remunerations to directors and supervisors were estimated both at $8,000 thousand, which were 2.83%, 2.79%, 1.89% and 1.39%, respectively, of appropriations of earnings. Material differences between these estimates and the amounts proposed by the Board of Directors in the following year are adjusted for also in the following year. If the actual amounts subsequently resolved by the stockholders differ from the proposed amounts, the differences are recorded in the year of stockholders’ resolution as a change in accounting estimate. If a share bonus is resolved to be distributed to employees, the number of shares is determined by dividing the amount of the share bonus by the closing price (after considering the effect of cash and stock dividends) of the shares of the day immediately preceding the stockholders’ meeting. Based on a directive issued by the Securities and Futures Bureau (SFB), an amount equal to the net debit balance of certain stockholders’ equity accounts (including net loss not recognized as pension cost and cumulative translation adjustments) should be transferred from unappropriated earnings to a special reserve. Any special reserve appropriated may be reversed to the extent of the decrease in the net debit balance. Legal reserve should be appropriated until it has reached the Corporation’s paid-in capital. This reserve may be used to offset a deficit. If the Corporation has no deficit and the legal reserve has exceeded 25% of the Corporation’s paid-in capital, the excess may be transferred to capital or distributed in cash.

These bonuses were previously recorded as appropriations from earnings. If the Corporation decides to settle the bonus to employees by cash or shares, the Corporation should presume that the entire amount of the bonus will be settled in shares, and, if the shares have a dilutive effect, the resulting potential shares should be included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the calculation of diluted EPS. The number of shares is estimated by dividing the entire amount of the bonus by the closing price of the shares at the balance sheet date. The dilutive effect of the potential shares needs to be included in the calculation of diluted EPS until the stockholders resolve the number of shares to be distributed to employees at their meeting in the following year. - 26 - 18.

Methods and assumptions used in determining fair values of financial instruments 1) The balance sheet carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, restricted assets - current, short-term bank loans, notes and accounts payable, accrued expenses, and payable on the equity investment (reclassified as other current liabilities) which were not included in the instruments mentioned above, approximate fair value because of their short maturities. 2) For financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss and held-to-maturity financial assets with an active market, the fair value is based on quoted market prices. For those financial instruments without an active market, the fair value is estimated using valuation techniques incorporating estimates and assumptions that are consistent with those generally used by other market participants for instrument pricing. 3) For financial assets carried at cost, the fair values cannot be estimated because related stocks have no active market and a reliable determination of their fair value entails an unreasonably high cost; thus, their fair value is not presented. 4) For refundable deposits, restricted assets - noncurrent and guarantee deposits received, their future receipt, settlement or payment terms are uncertain; thus, their fair value is their book value. 5) For long-term bank loans, their fair value is estimated using the present value of future cash flows discounted at interest rates the Corporation and its subsidiaries may obtain for similar loans (e.g., similar maturities). 6) For convertible bonds payable, their fair value is estimated using the present value of future cash flows. c. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, financial assets exposed to fair value interest rate risk amounted to $0 thousand and $15,138 thousand, respectively; financial liabilities exposed to fair value interest rate risk amounted to $1,279,738 thousand and $1,527,863 thousand, respectively; and financial liabilities exposed to cash flow interest rate risk amounted to $19,302,009 thousand and $13,904,029 thousand, respectively. - 30 - d. Financial risks 1) Market risk Financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss are held by the Corporation and its subsidiaries for trading in active markets. Hence, the Corporation and its subsidiaries are exposed to market risks as a result of price fluctuations. The Corporation and its subsidiaries run a control system to mitigate this risk, and management does not anticipate any material loss due to this risk. The Corporation and its subsidiaries also hold foreign-currency assets, liabilities, forward exchange contracts and currency option contracts. Hence, the Corporation and its subsidiaries are exposed to market risks as a result of exchange rate fluctuations. The Corporation and its subsidiaries run a control system and monitor the exchange rate fluctuations to reduce market risks. 2) Credit risk The Corporation and its subsidiaries are exposed to credit risk on counter-parties’ default on contracts. However, the amount of the Corporation and its subsidiaries’ maximum exposure to credit risk on its financial instruments is equal to the book value. In addition, the Corporation and its subsidiaries transact only with selected financial institutions and corporations with good credit ratings. Thus, management does not anticipate any material losses on default on contracts. 3) Liquidity risk The Corporation and its subsidiaries meet their cash flow demand in operation mainly through financing, which includes using unused credit line and entering into new loan agreements with financial institutions. In addition, the Corporation and its subsidiaries’ financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss is publicly traded in an active market and can readily be sold in the market at their approximate fair values. However, their financial assets that are carried at cost are with significant liquidity risks because these assets do not have quoted market prices in an active market. 4) Cash flow interest rate risk The Corporation and its subsidiaries’ short-term and long-term loans are floating-rate loans. Effective interest rates and future cash flows of the Corporation and its subsidiaries will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rate. The Corporation issued zero-coupon convertible bonds; thus, there is no cash flow interest rate risk due to interest rate fluctuations. 22. OPERATING SEGMENT FINANCIAL INFORMATION a. Segment information On January 1, 2011, the Corporation and its subsidiaries adopted the newly issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 41 - “Operating Segments.” SFAS No. 41 requires identification of operating segments on the basis of internal reports that are regularly reviewed by the Corporation and its subsidiaries' chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to the segments and assess their performance. The Corporation and other subsidiaries are regarded as one operating segment and mainly provides cargo shipping services and acts as a shipping agency. However, Gueishan Island Marine Biology Development Co., Ltd. has not engaged in operating activities.
