I hereby present the notice of convocation for the 107th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders. The fiscal year ended March 2026, which marked the final year of the Medium-term Management Plan 2026, was a period in which the global business environment underwent significant change triggered by developments in the Middle East and other factors. Amid increasingly wider swings in the operating environment, we continued to strengthen the profitability of each business while ensuring thorough risk management. We have made further progress in strengthening our business portfolio through disciplined investments and the strategic recycling of assets. We were also able to generate robust cash flows and stable earnings and achieved strong results that surpassed the targets in our business plan. Our new Medium-term Management Plan is built around the theme of "Shaping Futures - Trust and Innovation". We will embark on the Plan in an environment that remains highly uncertain. Nevertheless, we will continue to strengthen our fundamental competitiveness through the newly defined Key Strategic Initiatives with a clear focus on the future. We will further develop our downside resilience through rigorous risk management and expand our business portfolio which has strong growth potential. Building on our cross-industry capabilities, we will promote innovation by integrating new technologies and AI with our business foundations. We remain committed to delivering realistic and sustainable solutions sought by our customers, as well as ensuring the long-term, stable supply of a broader range of products and services that meet customer needs.

Reference Materials for the Exercise of Voting Rights Proposed Resolutions and Related Information Item 1: Distribution of Surplus Our basic policy regarding the distribution of profits is to directly provide returns to shareholders by paying out dividends based on our highly recurring cash generation capabilities. During the Medium-term Management Plan period (the fiscal year ended March 2024 to the fiscal year ended March 2026), which includes the current fiscal year, we have maintained a progressive dividend policy, aiming to either maintain or increase dividends. Under these policies, taking into consideration Core Operating Cash Flow and profit for the year attributable to owners of the parent in the fiscal year ended March 2026 as well as stability and continuity of the amount of dividend, we propose to pay a full-year dividend of 115 yen per share (including an interim dividend of 55 yen) with a year-end dividend of 60 yen per share.

Our new Medium-term Management Plan is built around the theme of "Shaping Futures - Trust and Innovation". We will embark on the Plan in an environment that remains highly uncertain. Nevertheless, we will continue to strengthen our fundamental competitiveness through the newly defined Key Strategic Initiatives with a clear focus on the future. We will further develop our downside resilience through rigorous risk management and expand our business portfolio which has strong growth potential. Building on our cross-industry capabilities, we will promote innovation by integrating new technologies and AI with our business foundations. We remain committed to delivering realistic and sustainable solutions sought by our customers, as well as ensuring the long-term, stable supply of a broader range of products and services that meet customer needs.

Under these policies, taking into consideration Core Operating Cash Flow and profit for the year attributable to owners of the parent in the fiscal year ended March 2026 as well as stability and continuity of the amount of dividend, we propose to pay a full-year dividend of 115 yen per share (including an interim dividend of 55 yen) with a year-end dividend of 60 yen per share.
