Notes regarding the calculation of the number of votes exercised by certain of the shareholders at the meeting
All agenda items respectively met the requirements for approval properly, in accordance with the Japanese Company Law, by the sum of the votes exercised up to the day prior to the meeting, plus the number of votes exercised by certain of the shareholders present at the meeting, who could be confirmed with votes for, against or abstaining on each proposal. Consequently, we did not calculate the number of votes for, against or abstaining with respect to shareholders present at the meeting, with the exception of those by aforementioned certain shareholders.
