Restricted Stock Incentive Plan for Employee Stock Ownership Associations

「The Company resolved to introduce this system in order to help eligible employees build personal assets as part of measures to enhance employee benefits by creating an opportunity for eligible employees among the employees of the Company and its subsidiaries who join the employee stock ownership association to acquire, through the association, the Company's common shares issued or disposed of by the Company as restricted stock. The system is also intended to provide incentives for the sustainable enhancement of the Group's corporate value and promote greater value sharing between eligible employees and shareholders.」
