| Basis for determining the amount to be paid | The closing price of the Company's common stock on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Prime Market on 22 May 2026, ¥2,837. The deviations from the average closing price were 3.73% against the one-month average of ¥2,735, 1.50% against the three-month average of ¥2,795, and 1.83% against the six-month average of ¥2,786. |
| Transfer restriction period | From 3 August 2026 through 31 July 2033 |
| Conditions for lifting transfer restrictions | Subject to the eligible employee remaining a member of the employee shareholding association throughout the transfer restriction period, all transfer restrictions will be lifted immediately after the period expires. In the event of an overseas assignment for business reasons, all transfer restrictions will be lifted on a date separately determined by the Company. The restrictions will also be lifted under prescribed conditions in the event of a reorganization or other similar event. |
| Reason for acquisition without consideration | Immediately after the transfer restriction period expires, or immediately after the transfer restrictions are lifted due to an overseas assignment, the Company will acquire without consideration any shares granted under this allotment for which the transfer restrictions have not been lifted. |
| Categories and Number of Persons Covered | The plan assumes that up to 2,641 full-time employees of the Group will each receive 100 shares of the Company's common stock. The actual number of eligible employees and shares will be determined at a later date. |
| Total Stock-Based Compensation | The amount of monetary claims to be paid as special incentive payments is equivalent to a maximum of ¥749,251,700. |
| Procedures under the Corporate Code of Conduct | Because the dilution rate is less than 25% and the transaction does not involve a change in the controlling shareholder, under the Tokyo Stock Exchange's Code of Corporate Conduct, it is not necessary to obtain an opinion from an independent third party or conduct procedures to confirm shareholders' intentions. The Audit & Supervisory Board members, including 2 Outside Audit & Supervisory Board Members, expressed the view that the disposal price does not constitute a disposal price particularly favorable to the recipients. |
