Agenda and Reference Items
Reduction of capital*
To facilitate future capital policy flexibility, the Company intends to reduce its capital amount and transfer it to other capital surplus, following the provisions of Article 447, Paragraph 1 of the Companies Act.
This proposed capital reduction is without refund and does not alter the total number of issued and outstanding shares, thereby having no impact on the number of shares held by shareholders. Moreover, as there will be no changes to the Company’s net assets or the total number of issued and outstanding shares due to this capital reduction, the net assets per share will remain unchanged.
| (1) | Amount of capital to be reduced |
Pursuant to Article 447, Paragraph 1 of the Companies Act, the Company proposes to reduce the capital amount by 1,002,789,087 yen from 1,102,789,087 yen to 100,000,000 yen. The entire reduced capital amount will be transferred to other capital surplus. If the stock options (stock acquisition rights) issued by the Company are exercised by the effective date of this capital reduction, there will be changes in both the amount of capital stock and the amount of capital surplus after the capital reduction.
