The payment will be made in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Trust Agreement dated August 31, 2017 between Techpoint; Mizuho Securities Co., Ltd.; Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Corporation; and The Master Trust Bank of Japan, Ltd., which agreement governs the rights of JDS holders.

Techpoint's board of directors previously adopted a dividend policy to link dividend payments to business performance on an ongoing basis. The amount to be paid in future dividends will be reviewed by Techpoint's board of directors, with an aggregate dividend target amount for each fiscal year equal to approximately 50% of Techpoint's annual non-GAAP net income[1] for the prior fiscal year. Techpoint anticipates making payment of future dividends in two separate installments each year. This policy can be modified or terminated at any time at the discretion of Techpoint's board of directors.
