Shareholder’s Proposals (Item 4 to Item 5)
Item for Resolution

Notes:
Requirements for adoption of each item are as follows:
The requirement for adoption of Item 1, Item 4,and Item 5 is a majority of the affirmative votes of the shareholders whoare entitled to exercise their voting rights and present at the meeting.
The requirement for adoption of Item 2 and Item 3 is a majority of the affirmative votes of the shareholders who areentitled to exercise their voting rights and present at the meeting where the shareholders holding one third or more of
the total voting rights of the shareholders who are entitled to exercise their voting rights are present.

d. Reason why a portion of the number of voting rights of the shareholders present at the meeting was notincluded in the calculation
Since the results of the counting of the number of voting rights of shareholders whose affirmative votes ornegative votes on each item were confirmed to have been exercised prior to the date of the meeting or at themeeting on each item met the requirements for adoption of the Company’s proposals and for rejection of theshareholders’ proposals, and the resolutions have been legally adopted pursuant to the Companies Act, thenumber of other voting rights was not included in the calculation.
