Details of issuance or disposal
Disposal of treasury shares as a restricted stock incentive (third-party allotment)
67,000 common shares of the company (scheduled; the actual number of shares will be determined based on the results of the enrollment solicitation for the employee stock ownership association)
The lower thin line represents the existing number of shares to which these shares will be added.
¥214,400,000 (estimated amount; ultimately, the final disposal price multiplied by the final number of shares)
0.18% of the total number of issued shares and 0.19% of the total number of voting rights (based on 67,000 shares)
The dilution rate shows what proportion the newly issued shares represent of the existing shares. The higher the proportion, the more the value and voting rights per share are diluted.
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.

| Basis for determining the amount to be paid | Based on the closing price of ¥3,200 on 4 November 2026, the business day preceding the date of the Board of Directors' resolution. If the closing price on the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the terms are determined exceeds this price, that closing price will apply. A discount of 5.52% to the 1-month average of ¥3,387, a discount of 4.71% to the 3-month average of ¥3,358, and a premium of 3.23% to the 6-month average of ¥3,100 |

| Conditions for lifting transfer restrictions | The restrictions will be lifted upon expiration of the period, provided that the employee has remained a member of the employee stock ownership association throughout the restricted period. If the employee leaves the association upon reaching retirement age or for another legitimate reason, or becomes a non-resident, the restrictions will be lifted on the applicable prescribed date. In the event of a corporate reorganisation or similar transaction, the restrictions will be lifted immediately before the business day preceding the effective date. |
| Reason for acquisition without consideration | If the employee leaves the employee stock ownership association during the period without a legitimate reason, violates laws or regulations, or falls under any other circumstances stipulated in the allocation agreement. This also applies if any shares remain subject to the restrictions at the time the restrictions are lifted. |

| Total Stock-Based Compensation | Monetary compensation receivables of ¥214,400,000 (estimated amount based on 67,000 shares) |
| Procedures under the Corporate Code of Conduct | Because the dilution ratio is below 25% and the transaction does not involve a change in the controlling shareholder, it is not necessary to obtain an opinion from an independent third party or conduct procedures to confirm shareholders' intentions. In addition, 3 directors serving as Audit and Supervisory Committee members, including 2 outside directors, expressed the opinion that the method for determining the disposal price was appropriate. |
