Description

Requirements for the offering of Share Options

(1)Class and number of shares covered by the Share Options

70,000 Class A common shares, which, in case of adjustment set forth below, shall be revised to the number of granted shares after adjustment multiplied by the total number of Share Options.

Number of shares covered by one (1) Share Option (hereinafter referred to as the “Number of Granted Shares”) shall be 100 class A common shares. In the event of a stock split (including a gratis allotment of common stock and this being applicable hereinafter, as well) or a reverse split by the Company after the day when the Share Options are allotted (hereinafter referred to as the “Date of Allotment”), the following formula shall be used to adjust the Number of Granted Shares covered by the Share Options that have not been exercised at the time of adjustment. Fractional share resulting from adjustment shall be discarded.

Number of Granted Shares after adjustment = Number of Granted Shares before adjustment × ratio of split or reverse split

Any adjustment of the Number of Granted Shares which may be required in other situations shall be made to a reasonable extent.

(2)Total number of Share Options

700

(3)Amount payable in exchange of the Share Options

No payment is required in exchange of the Share Options

(4)Manner of calculating the value of assets contributed in exercising the Share Options

73,000 yen for one (1) Share Option

Value of assets contributed in exercising one (1) Share Option shall be obtained by multiplying the amount paid per share for the shares delivered upon exercise of the Share Option (hereinafter referred to as the “Exercise Price”) by the Number of Granted Shares.

The Exercise Price shall be 730 yen

If any of the following events occurs on or after the Date of Allotment, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted as follows.

1

(i)For the share split or reverse split by the Company, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula stated below and fractional yen resulting from the adjustment shall be rounded up to the nearest yen.

Exercise Price after adjustment	=	Exercise Price before adjustment	×	1
				ratio of share split or reverse split

(ii)If the Company issues new shares or dispose of the treasury stock at a price below the market price, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula stated below and fractional yen resulting from the adjustment shall be rounded up to the nearest yen.

Exercise Price after adjustment	=	Exercise Price before adjustment	×	number of issued shares	+	number of newly issued shares × amount paid per share
						market price per share
				number of issued shares + number of newly issued shares

In the above formula, the “number of issued shares” means the total number of shares issued by the Company less the number of treasury stock in the possession of the Company. In case of the disposition of treasury stock, the “number of newly issued shares” shall read “number of treasury stock disposed of.”

(iii)In case of other inevitable situations which require the adjustment of the Exercise Price, the adjustment shall be made to a reasonable extent taking into account the conditions.
