Restricted stock is stock awarded as compensation that cannot be sold during a specified period, with the restrictions lifted once the applicable conditions are met.

Conditions for lifting transfer restrictions
As a performance condition, the Company must achieve net sales of at least ¥15,548 million and operating income of at least ¥200 million in the audited statement of income for the fiscal year ending December 2026. The holder must also continue to be a director or employee of the Company or one of its affiliated companies at the time of exercise and through 1 March 2028, subject to certain exceptions.

The Company's directors (including directors serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee Members): 8 people, 1,570 rights, The Company's employees: 346 people, 11,310 rights
Intended allottee's holding policy

Payment date
1 July 2026
Basis for determining the amount to be paid
The exercise price is set at the closing price of ¥195 per share on the TSE on the business day preceding the date of the issuance resolution. A third-party valuation institution calculated the value using a numerical calculation method based on the general-purpose Black-Scholes equation, applying a share price volatility of 45.50%, a dividend yield of 0.00%, a risk-free interest rate of 1.90% and a term to maturity of 4.72 years, among other factors. The payment amount of ¥315 per stock acquisition right is equal to the appraised value.
Procedures under the Corporate Code of Conduct
Because the rights will be issued for cash at fair value and not on particularly favorable terms, the issuance will be carried out without shareholder approval. The price has been calculated by a third-party valuation institution.
