Environmental friendliness efficiency indicators
The KOKUYO Group designates unique environmental friendlinessefficiency indicators as indices that can comprehensively evaluate
financial performance and impact on the global environment. These
indicators indicate the extent to which products and services are being
offered to society with respect to specific environmental loads andcorrespond to the following four items.
1. CO2 emissions
2. Final waste disposal
3. Usage of chemical substances subject to PRTR regulations
4. Water usage
Fiscal 2000 is taken as the baseline for each indicator and the progress status for each fiscal year can be determined.

Environmental friendliness efficiency indicators* The scope of reporting coverage through fiscal 2011 was Group A. Fromfiscal 2012, the scope of reporting coverage was expanded to Group B.
* Chemical substances have been calculated according to the amounthandled of Class I Designated Chemical Substances as provided for in the
PRTR Law used by the place of business subject to notification asprovided for in the PRTR Law.
* As ferric chloride used as a flocculating agent in the treatment ofwastewater at KOKUYO Furniture's Mie Plant was designated a Class I
Designated Chemical Substance in 2010, data on chemical substances
have been retroactively revised. After undergoing neutralization in theprocess of treating wastewater, ferric chloride is transformed into ferrichydroxide and is then subject to disposition in a detoxified state.

About JEPIXJEPIX (Japan Environmental Policy Index) is a method of quantifying theamount of different types of environmental loads, such as greenhousegas emissions and air pollutants as single indicators called
Environmental Impact Points (EIP). The EIP is calculated by multiplying
the environmental load for each environmentally harmful chemical by the integrated coefficient calculated from the ratio
between Japan's environmental policy target and the actual amount of emissions (environmental friendliness factor).

JEPIX* The scope of coverage through fiscal 2011 was Group A. From fiscal 2012,
the scope of reporting coverage was expanded to Group B.

CSR Data

Reports on Business Sites in Japan
KOKUYO measures the impact on the natural environment of the activities of its principal business sites in Japan andoverseas and uses this information in considering appropriate policies, setting objectives, and carrying out other activities.
KOKUYO discloses such information on five manufacturing plants in Japan. In fiscal 2013, the total volume of CO2
emissions at these five domestic plants exceeded the level of the previous year due to increases in production and shifts tointernal production.
* In tables featured in this report, the figure “0” indicates that numbers have been rounded off to zero. Also, “-” indicates that there are no figurescorresponding to the given item.
* Wastewater emissions are disclosed herein only for those business sites where measurements of such emissions are required by law.
Measurements at the KOKUYO Product Shiga plant are not required by law. However, because abnormal pH values were detected there infiscal 2007, the emissions have been disclosed separately.

Reports on Business Sites Overseas
Information on nine plants, located in —Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, and India (5 plants) as well as Shanghai in China
where recently began operations—are hereby disclosed for fiscal 2013. CO2 emissions increased due to higher production
at plants in Thailand, Malaysia, and Vietnam. While the production output rose in India, the volume of CO2 emissions
declined due in part to improvements in production efficiency.
