The overview of the Plan, etc. is as follows.

[Overview of the Plan, etc.]

The Eligible Employees, etc., based on to the Plan, shall make in-kind contribution of all the monetary claims to be provided by the Company or its domestic subsidiaries, and shall receive the Company's common stock issued thereto or disposed of therefor. The amount to be paid per share shall be determined by the Board of Directors based on the closing price of a share of common stock of the Company on the Tokyo Stock Exchange on the business day immediately prior to the date of resolution at each Board of Directors meeting (or the closing price on the transaction day immediately prior thereto if no transaction is made on such business day) to the extent that the amount is not particularly advantageous for the Eligible

1

Employees, etc. who receive such common stock.

For the issuance or disposal of the Company's common stock under the Plan, an agreement for allotment of restricted stock shall be entered into between the Company and the Eligible Employees, etc., which shall include the following: (1) the Eligible Employees, etc. may not assign, create a security interest over, or otherwise dispose of in any way to a third party the Company's common stock allotted under the agreement for allotment of restricted stock during a certain restriction period, and (2) the Company shall automatically acquire without contribution such common stock in case where certain events occur.

This time, the Company has decided to grant a total of 77,736,090 yen in monetary claims (hereinafter the "Monetary Claims") and 29,910 shares of common stock, taking into consideration the purpose of the Plan, the Company's business conditions, the scope of the duties of the Eligible Employees, etc. and various circumstances, and with the aim of further motivating the Eligible Employees, etc. In addition, in order to realize the purpose of introducing the Plan, which is to share the shareholder value, the transfer restriction period is set at approximately 2 years and 8 months.

In the Disposal of Treasury Stock, 463 Eligible Employees, etc., who are the expected allottees, will make in-kind contribution of all the Monetary Claims against the Company and will receive the Company's common stock (hereinafter the "Allotted Shares") disposed of therefor, based on the Plan.

Since the monetary claims to be contributed in kind by each of the Eligible Employees, etc. under the Plan will be provided by the Company or its domestic subsidiaries, the wages of the Company's employees will not be reduced as a result of the Disposal of Treasury Stock. Furthermore, the Allotted Shares will be allotted only to the Eligible Employees, etc. who wish to receive them, and accordingly, the Monetary Claims will be extinguished in the event that no application is made to receive such shares.

The overview of the agreement for allotment of restricted stock (hereinafter the "Allotment Agreement") to be entered into between the Company and the Eligible Employees, etc., in connection with the Disposal of Treasury Stock is as described in 3. below.

resignation as set forth in (i) by the number of shares obtained by dividing the number of months from the month following the month that contains the date of the Disposal to the month that contains the date on which the Eligible Employees, etc. retire or resign from their position by 33 (if the number exceeds 1, 1 shall be applied) (any fractions less than 1 share as a result of calculation shall be discarded).

(4) Gratis acquisition by the Company

The Company shall automatically acquire at no cost the Allotted Shares for which the transfer restrictions are not removed as of the expiration of the transfer restriction period or at the time of removal of the transfer restrictions as set forth in (3) above. In the event that the Eligible Employees, etc. retire or resign from the position of Director, Audit & Supervisory Board Member, Executive Officer, Operating Officer, Trustee, Advisor, Business Advisor, employee, rehired employee, part- time employee, or any other similar position at the Company or its domestic subsidiaries during the transfer restriction period due to reasons other than the expiration of their term of office, mandatory retirement age or other justifiable reasons, in the event that certain events specified in the Allotment Agreement occur, or in the event of any other violation of laws and regulations, etc., the Company shall automatically acquire at no cost all the Allotted Shares at the time of such events.

In addition, the Company shall automatically acquire at no cost all the Allotted Shares whose transfer restrictions have not yet been removed as of the time immediately after removal of transfer restrictions.

This is the market price of the share immediately before the date of the resolution by the Board of Directors of the Company, and the Company believes that it is reasonable and not a particularly advantageous price.
