Adjustment to Cash Dividend Per Share

TSMC Board of Directors on February 14, 2023 approved to distribute NT$71,308,546,260 as cash dividend (NT$2.75 per common share) for the fourth quarter of 2022, and the dividend will be paid on July 13, 2023. As a result of the reclaiming unvested 2021 restricted stock awards and the issuance of 2022 restricted stock awards during the period between the day the Company's board approved said dividend distribution, and the record date of the distribution, the number of common shares outstanding has changed slightly, resulting in a miniscule difference in the per-share dividends from the per-share amount approved by the Company's board. The cash dividend for the fourth quarter of 2022 is hereby adjusted to NT$2.74982072 per common share.
