 **Adjusting profit targets to support the economy**

 In line with the Government and SBV directives to ease business difficulties, lower
interest rates, and support economic growth, SeABank’s BOD has approved a 15% reduction
in its 2026 profit-before-tax target to VND6,008 billion enabling three key actions:

 First, reducing interest rates. Annual deposit rates have been cut by 0.5–0.7 percentage
points for tenors of six months or longer, creating room to lower lending rates,
particularly for SMEs, priority sectors and green projects.

 Second, credit allocation and risk management. The Bank prioritizes businesses 
with sound financial foundations and viable business plans, customers in priority
sectors.

 Third, leveraging ecosystems. SeABank utilizes existing customer ecosystems and
value chains to provide integrated financial solutions, enhancing customer experience
and engagement.

 These measures reflect SeABank’s alignment with policy directions and strategic
focus on growth quality and customer support over rapid expansion at all costs.

 **Electing new BOD Chairperson, strengthening senior leadership**

 The BOD elected Ms. Tran Thi Thanh Thuy, a current BOD member, as its new Chairperson
for the 2023–2028 term, effective October 22, 2026.

 The BOD also approved Mr. Le Van Tan’s resignation as Chairperson, and is completing
documentation to receive the SBV’s approval for his appointment as CEO, to soon 
succeed Mr. Le Quoc Long, whose three-year term ends in November 2026. This proactive
leadership transition ensures continuity and stability in SeABank’s governance and
executive management.

 Ms. Tran Thi Thanh Thuy, holds a Master’s degree in Economics from the Banking 
Academy of Vietnam and brings nearly 40 years of banking and finance experience.
Since joining SeABank in 2015, she has served as Deputy CEO and was elected to the
BOD for the 2023–2028 term on April 17, 2024. Her extensive banking and governance
experience is expected to support SeABank’s safe, stable growth in line with international
standards.

 The BOD currently has eight members, including two independent members and three
foreign members. All have long-standing experience, supporting SeABank to unlock
new growth drivers and create long-term value.
