Information Security Management MeasuresInformation Security Risk ManagementInformation security risk management is a key link to strengthen the construction of information security guarantee system.e Company regularly assesses the information security risks, establishes scientic risk assessment methods, claries riskacceptance criteria, and identies acceptable levels of risks. In addition, we review the residual risks to verify that they areacceptable. For unacceptable paicipation risks, we take control measures until all information security risks are reduced to beacceptable.
Control Process of Information RisksRisk identication
Risk analysis and evaluation
Risk treatment
Residual risk management
●Identify all assets and their owners; assign a quantitative value to each asset in terms of confidentiality, integrity,availability, laws and regulations, and level of impoance; determine whether it is an impoant asset in accordance withthe guidelines for determination of impoant assets, and prepare aList of Information Asset Identication;●Identify threats to these assets, vulnerabilities that could be exploited by threats, and existing control measures andtheir eectiveness; calculate the impact on impoant assets in the event of loss of condentiality, integrity and availabilityby assigning values.
● Calculate the impact value of risk occurrence based on the value and vulnerability severity of impoant assets;●Assign values to each threat based on its frequency of occurrence, vulnerability, and ease of exploitation, and calculatethe likelihood of risk occurrence;●Calculate and determine the risk level according to theRisk Management Procedure for Information Security;●Determine whether the risk is acceptable or needs to be addressed according to theRisk Management Procedure forInformation Security and risk acceptance criteria.
●According to the results of risk assessment, develop a Risk Management Proposal for Information Security, specifythe responsible department, person in charge, handling methods, as well as the start and completion time for riskmanagement.
● Review residual risks after risk treatment and verify whether they are acceptable.
In October 2024, Yangzhou Aurisco assessed information security risks and issued aReport on Information SecurityRisk Assessment. A total of 741 assets were identied in this assessment, including 268 high-risk assets. Managementmeasures were developed for all high-risk assets. After the implementation of control measures, all high-risk assetswere changed to be acceptable. This assessment gave a comprehensive presentation of threats in the informationsystems, clearly disclosing the vulnerabilities and security risks in the construction of information systems, and laying thefoundation for the establishing a long-term mechanism for risk assessment and management.

Standardization of Pollution and Waste ManagementAurisco strictly abides by the environmental control requirements, and intensies the control and management of wastewater,exhaust gas, waste and other pollutants, ensuring compliant discharge and treatment. It is committed to minimizing the impactof production and operation on the environment, and preventing the occurrence of environmental pollution incidents.
Wastewater Treatmente Company selects the wastewater treatment processes with strong applicability, advanced and reliable technology, matureand stable process, high treatment effect, low operating cost, and convenient operation and management. It establishesstandard operating procedures for wastewater treatment, understands the wastewater discharge through the combination ofonline and manual monitoring, and strictly guarantees that the discharge meets the standards.The high-concentration process wastewater is pre-treated by Fe-C micro-electrolysis and Fenton oxidation to reduce itsbiological toxicity and improve its biodegradability. After treatment, the high-concentration wastewater is mixed with low-concentration one, and further treated by anaerobic-anaerobic-aerobic activated sludge method to reduce pollutantsconcentration in wastewater including COD, ammonia and phosphorus, suspended matter.
Aurisco Wastewater Treatment PlantYangzhou Aurisco Wastewater Treatment SystemIn addition, we have formulated theOperational Procedures for Emergency Wastewater Treatmentand established emergencyplans for abnormal wastewater discharge. When the COD value measured by the automatic monitoring meter at thewastewater discharge outlet is up to the warning value, or when the COD value measured by manual daily sampling reachesthe warning value, we appoint dedicated monitoring personnel to test the quality of the water discharged from the mainwastewater section. When the wastewater treatment system fails, we use the emergency wastewater collection tank. e high-concentration wastewater generated in the workshop is collected into the high-concentration water collection tank, and thelow-concentration wastewater is collected into the emergency low-concentration wastewater collection tank. Domestic sewageand laborato wastewater are stored in the comprehensive collection tank of the wastewater treatment system.
Exhaust Gas Treatmente Company strictly adheres to the requirements of laws, regulations, and standards such as theLaw of the People's Republicof China on the Prevention and Control of Air Pollution, theIntegrated Emission Standard of Air Pollutants, and theEmissionStandard of Air Pollutants for Pharmaceutical Industry. It formulates theOperating Procedures for Exhaust Gas Treatment,and insists on the comprehensive treatment of exhaust gas from the source, process, monitoring, equipment inspection andmaintenance and other aspects, ensuring stable and compliant emissions and safeguarding the clean and blue sky.

Yangzhou Aurisco reduced waste emissions withmultiple measuresThe Company improved the process ofAbiraterone Acetate product line, used theoriginal hazardous waste filter residue as rawmaterial to prepare sodium iodide, and sold itas a by-product. With an annual output of 30tons of Abiraterone Acetate, 44 tons of sodiumiodide was prepared, achieving comprehensiveutilization of filter residue and reducing wastegeneration, with high environmental andeconomic value.
For reducing sludge in wastewater treatment,:the water in sludgewas first removed by a sludge dewatering crew press, and thesludge was dried by a rake der to remove residual moisture andsolvents, reducing the amount of sludge produced. In 2024, 12.96tons of sludge in wastewater was disposed of by this method.
