competitors, all countries that are affected by this market manipulation would impose sanctions on Teijin Group.
Although self-disclosure programs (such as leniency programs) to the authorities encourages the detection of violationsuch as price cartels, the fines for violation and the settlement/compensation for civil lawsuits is increasing drastically.
Furthermore, in the United States, significant criminal charges (fines and imprisonment) are imposed on individual

laws in every country and region where we conduct our business.
