of Shareholders held on June 23, 2015 and the resolution adopted at the meeting of the Board of Directors held on October 29, 2015:

 

		1.	Aggregate Number of Options

 

11,455

 

		2.	Class and Number of Shares to be Issued or Transferred upon Exercise of Options

 

The class of shares to be issued
or transferred upon exercise of the Options shall be shares of common stock, and the number of shares to be issued or transferred

The aggregate number of shares
to be issued or transferred upon exercise of the Options shall be 1,145,500 shares of common stock of the Corporation (hereinafter
referred to as the “Common Stock”). However, in the event that the Number of Granted Shares is adjusted pursuant to
Condition 3 below, the aggregate number of shares to be issued or transferred upon exercise of the Options shall be adjusted to
the number obtained by multiplying the Number of Granted Shares after adjustment by the aggregate number of the Options as prescribed
in Condition 1 above.

 

		3.	Adjustment of Number of Granted Shares

 

		(1)	In the event that the Corporation conducts a stock split (including free distribution of shares
(musho-wariate)) or consolidation of the Common Stock, the Number of Granted Shares shall be adjusted in accordance with
the following formula:

 

	Number of Granted Shares after adjustment	=	Number of Granted Shares before adjustment	x	Ratio of split or consolidation

 

		(2)	An adjustment to the Number of Granted Shares under the immediately preceding Item shall be made
only with respect to the Number of Granted Shares for the Options which have not been exercised at the time of the adjustment.
Any fraction less than one (1) share resulting from the adjustment shall be disregarded.

 

		(3)	The effective date of the Number of Granted Shares after adjustment shall be the same day as the
date on which the Exercise Price after adjustment becomes effective as provided for in Item (2) of Condition 7 with regard to the
adjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to Condition 7 for the same reason as the adjustment of the Number of Granted Shares.

 

		(4)	When the Number of Granted Shares is adjusted, the Corporation shall give notice of necessary matters
to each holder of the Options registered in the register of Options, no later than the day immediately preceding the effective
date of the Number of Granted Shares after adjustment; provided, however, that if the Corporation is unable to give such notice
no later than the day immediately preceding such effective date, the Corporation shall promptly give such notice on or after such
effective date.

 

		4.	Payment in exchange for Options

 

The Options are issued without

upon exercise of the Options (hereinafter referred to as the “Exercise Price”) by the Number of Granted Shares. The
Exercise Price is initially as set forth in Exhibit 2 attached to the Agreement concerning Allocation of the Stock Acquisition
Rights of Sony Corporation for the Fiscal Year 2015 dated November 18, 2015.

 

		7.	Adjustment of Exercise Price

 

		(1)	In the event that the Corporation conducts a stock split (including free distribution of shares
(musho-wariate)) or consolidation of the Common Stock after the Allotment Date of the Options, the Exercise Price shall
be adjusted in accordance with the following formula, and any fraction less than one (1) cent resulting from the adjustment shall
be rounded up to the nearest one (1) cent:

 

	Exercise Price after adjustment	=	Exercise Price before adjustment	x	1
	Ratio of split or consolidation

 

		(2)	In the case that the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to the immediately preceding Item, the
effective date of the Exercise Price after adjustment shall be as set forth below:

 

The Exercise Price after adjustment
shall become effective, in the case of a stock split, on and after the day immediately following the record date for such stock
split, and in the case of a stock consolidation, on and after the effective date thereof.

 

 

		(3)	In addition to the cases in Item (1) of this Condition where the Exercise Price is required to
be adjusted, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted in a manner deemed to be appropriate by the Corporation in the following cases.

 

		(i)	When the Exercise Price is required to be adjusted due to a merger, corporate split (split by new
incorporation or by absorption) or reduction of the amount of capital of the Corporation.

 

		(ii)	In addition to Item (i) above, when the Exercise Price is required to be adjusted due to the occurrence

the day immediately preceding such effective date, the Corporation shall promptly give such notice on or after such effective date.

 

		8.	Period during which Options May be Exercised

federal or state securities laws. The Corporation shall inform the holder of such Option in writing of the decision to defer the
effectiveness of the exercise of such Option granted hereunder. During the period that the effectiveness of the exercise of an
Option has been deferred, the holder of such Option may, by a written notice, withdraw such exercise and obtain the refund of any
amounts paid in connection with such exercise.

Exhibit 4

 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES FOR NON-US PARTICIPANTS

 

The Qualified Person confirms the following
matters pursuant to Article 13 of the Allocation Agreement.

 

1.(Employment Contract)

I understand that nothing in the
Sony Corporation Stock Acquisition Rights Plan (the “Plan”) terms form part of my employment contract, unless my employment
contract expressly states otherwise. Participation in the Plan does not create any right to continued employment.

 

I understand that neither the participation
in the Plan nor the grant of an Option creates any rights to participate in the Plan or to be granted any stock acquisition right,
Option or award in the future. The Plan may cease to be operated in the future although any existing Options granted under the
Plan will continue in accordance with the Allocation Agreement, Exhibits, and the Terms and Conditions.

 

I understand that I have no claim
or right of action in respect of any decision, omission or discretion which may operate to my disadvantage even if it is unreasonable,
irrational or might otherwise be regarded as being in breach of any duty, except as set out in the relevant Plan documentation.

 

I understand I have no right to
compensation for any loss in relation to the Plan, including any loss in relation to:

		·	a reduction of rights or expectations under
the Plan in any circumstances (including lawful or unlawful termination of employment);

		·	any exercise of a discretion or a decision
taken in relation to an award or to the Plan, or any failure to exercise a discretion or take a decision; and

		·	the operation, suspension, termination or
amendment of the Plan.

 

I understand that as the grant by
the Corporation is entirely discretionary, the benefits and rights acquired under the Plan do not constitute “base salary”
or other regular employment earnings and that nothing in the rules or operation of the Plan forms part of my contract of employment
or employment relationship, which rights are separate from and not affected by,

    	 	 

    	 

    

the Plan. I understand and agree
that under no circumstances will the benefits derived from the Plan be included as part of my employment earnings for purposes
of calculating any of the Corporation’s and/or the Sony group companies’ (including my employer) obligations to me
for bonus, retirement, severance, or any other such payments.

 

2.(Data Protection)

I consent to the collection, use
and disclosure by the Corporation and/or companies in the Sony group (including my employer) of any personal information or data
necessary for the administration of the Plan.

 

Subject to legislative requirements,
the information may be retained after my Options are exercised or cancelled. I understand that I can contact the Secretariat of
the Stock Option Plan, Corporate Human Resources, Sony Corporation or the Human Resources Department of Sony Corporation of America
(in accordance with the contact information provided to me under separate cover), if I have any queries in respect of this statement.

 

I understand that the information
provided to the Corporation, the companies in the Sony group (including my employer), and/or to their duly authorized third party
designee(s) retained for the purpose of assisting the Corporation or the Sony group companies with administration of the Options
and provided in relation to the Plan will be used in relation to the administration of my Options under the Plan.

 

The Corporation and/or any of the
companies in the Sony group (including my employer) may give information to others (including people acting as agents of the Corporation
and/or any of the companies in the Sony group) in connection with the administration of the Plan on the understanding that they
will keep the information secure.

 

In order to process the information
the Corporation and/or companies in the Sony group (including my employer) may transfer the information to other countries that
may have a different level of statutory protection for my information than in my home country.

 

I understand that I have a right
to access certain information that the Plan holds about me and in order to exercise this right, I can contact the Secretariat of
the Stock Option Plan, Corporate Human Resources, Sony Corporation or the Human Resources Department of Sony Corporation of America
(in accordance with the contact information provided to me under separate cover).

    	 	 

    	 

    

 

3.(Payment of Tax, Social Security or Other
Amounts)

I authorize the Corporation and
companies in the Sony group (including my employer) to withhold any amounts or make such arrangements as they consider necessary
to meet any liability due to taxation, social security or other amounts in respect of my participation in the Plan. These arrangements
may include the sale or reduction in number of any shares of the Corporation (hereinafter referred to as the “Shares”)
unless I, as the participant in the Plan, discharge the liability myself.

 

4.(Tax Filings)

By signing the Allocation Agreement,
I agree to:

(1)make
all neccessary personal tax filings in the territory where I am tax resident in relation to this Plan;

 

(2)make
any required foreign exchange filings or notifications in relation to my holding of rights under the Plan in the territory where
I am foreign exchange resident; and

 

(3)comply
with any requirements to notify my employer of my interests in rights relating to the Shares (whether these requirements are based
on the internal rules of the Corporation, the Sony group, my employer or applicable law).

 

5.(Pensions)

I understand and agree that this
grant of Options to me will not affect my pension rights in any way. No additional contributions will be made by the Corporation
or by any other member of the Sony group (including my employer) as a result of my participation in this Plan. Any pension I may
receive will not be increased by my participation in this Plan.

 

6.(Tax Treatment)

I understand and agree that neither
the Corporation nor any member of the Sony group (including my employer) has arranged for any special tax treatment to apply to
these Options. The Options are not tax qualified in any jurisdiction.

        med Referencekursen (eventuelle decimaler efter en sådan beregning mindre end en (1) cent skal rundes op til nærmeste
        hele cent) skal udgøre den første Udnyttelseskurs. I så fald skal Selskabet oplyse en sådan
        første Udnyttelseskurs til den Kvalificerede Person ved fremsendelse af meddelelse herom (herefter ”Meddelelsen”)

        6Økonomiske
        aspekter af deltagelse i aktieoptionsprogrammet 

         

        Aktieoptioner er risikobetonede værdipapirer,
        der er afhængige af aktiemarkedet. Som følge heraf er der ingen garanti for, at udnyttelsen af Optionerne udløser
        en fortjeneste. Tildelingen af Optionerne har ingen økonomiske konsekvenser for den Kvalificerede Person.

        cas les Options ne puissent être exercées après les Durées indiquées à l'Article 4 des
        Conditions.

         

        (i) Si la Personne Qualifiée fait l'objet

        en vertu de l'Article 7 à compter de la Date de Renonciation à Statut (ci-après les « Options Non
        Exerçables ») à la Date de Renonciation à Statut ou passé celle-ci ; sous réserve,
        toutefois, que si la Société autorise l'héritier de la Personne Qualifiée à exercer les Options

        La Personne Qualifiée pourra exercer
        les Options Exerçables jusques et y compris le dernier jour de la période d'un (1) an commençant à
        la date suivant immédiatement la Date de Renonciation à Statut (si le dernier jour de cette période d'un (1)
        ans tombe un jour férié pour la Société, le jour ouvrable le précédant immédiatement
        sera le dernier jour de la période en question), mais ne pourra pas exercer les Options Non Exerçables à la
        Date de Renonciation à Statut ni par la suite; sous réserve, toutefois, que si la Société autorise
        l'héritier de la Personne Qualifiée à exercer les Options Non Exerçables, l'ensemble de celles-ci deviendront
        exerçables à la Date de Renonciation à Statut (ou à la Date de Commencement de la Période d'Exercice,
        si la Date de Renonciation à Statut tombe un jour précédant la Date de Commencement de la Période d'Exercice)
        et la Personne Qualifiée pourra exercer les Options Non Exerçables jusques et y compris le dernier jour de la période
        d'un (1) an commençant à la date suivant immédiatement la Date de Renonciation à Statut (si le dernier
        jour de cette période d'un (1) an tombe un jour férié pour la Société, le jour ouvrable le précédant
        immédiatement sera le dernier jour de la période en question).

        du concurrent en question, et que l'un quelconque des CEO désignés pour représenter la Société
        décide de ne pas permettre l'exercice, par la Personne Qualifiée en question, des Options qui lui ont été
        attribuées.

         

        (ii) Si la Personne Qualifiée est considérée
        par la Société comme ayant commis un acte déloyal à l'égard de la Société ou du
        Groupe Sony.

         

        (iii) Si la Personne Qualifiée viole
        une quelconque disposition du Contrat.

         

        (5)La Personne Qualifiée n'est pas
        autorisée à céder, à nantir ni à se défaire d'une quelconque autre manière de
        tout ou partie des Options.

         

        (6)L'exercice des Options est en outre assujetti
        à toute restriction sur les transactions prévue par le Règlement de la Sony Corporation of America Concernant
        les Transactions sur Titres ou tout autre règlement semblable mis en œuvre par le Groupe Sony (ci-après le « Groupe
        Sony ») et applicable à la Personne Qualifiée, tel qu'il peut être en vigueur de manière
        ponctuelle.

         

        11.Interdiction de Cession

         

        (1)Sauf disposition contraire de l'Alinéa
        (2) ci-dessous, les Options, acquises ou non, ne sont pas cessibles par la Personne Qualifiée.

         

        (2)En cas de décès de la Personne
        Qualifiée, les Options en circulation qui auront été acquises et sont exerçables et accordées
        à la Personne Qualifiée en question, ne pourront être exercées que par les exécuteurs ou les
        administrateurs testamentaires de la Personne Qualifiée ou par toute personne ayant acquis le droit de les exercer en vertu
        du testament ou de la législation sur les successions, sous réserve qu'aucun transfert par testament ou en vertu
        de législation sur les successions d'une quelconque Option, ou du droit d'exercer une quelconque Option, ne pourra contraindre
        la Société à moins que cette dernière ait reçu (a) un avis écrit dans ce sens et une
        copie du testament et/ou les preuves qu'elle jugera nécessaires pour établir la validité du transfert et (b)
        un accord par lequel le cessionnaire s'engage à se conformer à l'ensemble des modalités des Options qui s'appliquent
        ou se seraient appliquées à la Personne Qualifiée (autres que les modalités relatives à l'emploi
        au sein de la Société ou de l'une de ses filiales) et à être lié par les engagements de la Personne
        Qualifiée concernant l'octroi des Options. Les Options non acquises ni exerçables lors du décès de
        la Personne Qualifiée deviendront nulles.

         

        12.Rachat
        / Achat d'Options

         

        Le rachat obligatoire des Options ne s'applique
        pas. En outre, en aucun cas une quelconque Personne Qualifiée ne pourra demander à la Société d'acheter
        les Options qu'elle détient.

         

         

        13.Restrictions
        concernant l'Acquisition d'Options par l'intermédiaire d'un Transfert

         

        Les Options ne peuvent pas être acquises
        par le transfert (autre qu'un quelconque transfert d'Options acquises et exerçables au décès d'un détenteur
        des Options au profit de la succession ou des bénéficiaires du détenteur en question), à moins que
        cette acquisition soit expressément approuvée par le Conseil d'Administration de la Société.

         

        14.Lieu
        de Dépôt des Demandes d'Exercice des Options

         

        Sony Corporation of America, Ressources Humaines,
        ou son représentant dûment désigné

         

        15.Lieu
        de Traitement des Paiements lors de l'Exercice des Options

         

        Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, Siège
        (ou toute autre banque lui succédant de temps à autre et/ou tout bureau succédant à ce bureau)

         

        16.Emission des ADR (Certificats Américains
        de Dépôt)

         

        La Société gère actuellement
        un plan d'ADR aux Etats-Unis, en vertu duquel des Certificats Américains de Dépôt (American Depositary Receipts
        ou « ADR ») représentent des actions ordinaires de la Société. Durant la période
        où la Société gère ce programme d'ADR aux Etats-Unis, les Personnes Qualifiées exerçant
        les Options recevront des ADR au lieu d'actions ordinaires de la Société, et ce comme décrit ci-dessous. Lors
        de l'exercice d'une Option, les actions ordinaires de la Société acquises par suite de cet exercice seront émises
        au nom du dépositaire ou de la personne qu'il aura désignée dans le cadre du Plan d'ADR de Sony au profit
        de la Personne Qualifiée. A réception des actions ordinaires de la Société suite à l'exercice
        d'une Option, le dépositaire dans le cadre du plan d'ADR de Sony émettra immédiatement et de manière
        automatique les ADR représentant les actions ordinaires en question de la Société au nom de la Personne Qualifiée
        concernée et livrera les ADR en question à celle-ci (ou sur un compte détenu au profit de celle-ci) dès
        que possible suite à la date effective de l'émission. Par souci de simplicité, toute référence
        faite dans le Contrat d'Attribution (tel que défini ci-dessous à l'Article 16 des Conditions) et dans les Conditions
        aux actions ordinaires de la Société sera considérée comme étant une référence
        aux ADR.

         

         

         

         

        17.Traitement en Cas de Transaction
        d'Entreprise

         

        (1)En cas de quelconque transaction d'entreprise,
        à l'exclusion (a) d'une consolidation ou d'une fusion dont la société résultante n'est pas la Société
        ou (b) d'un échange de parts (kabushiki-kokan) ou d'un transfert de parts (kabushiki-iten) en vertu duquel la Société
        devient une filiale à 100% d'une autre société affectant la Société, y compris la dissolution
        ou la liquidation de la Société, la vente de tout ou d'une partie substantielle des actifs de la Société,
        de scission d'entreprise ou de toute autre transaction semblable, la Société pourra (x) exiger de l'entité
        résultant de la transaction en question qu'elle signe un accord prévoyant que tout détenteur des Options ait
        le droit, pendant la Durée et lors de l'exercice des Options, de recevoir la catégorie et la quantité d'actions
        et d'autres titres et actifs qui lui sont dus suite à ladite transaction par tout détenteur du nombre d'actions au
        titre desquelles les Options auraient pu être exercées immédiatement avant la transaction en question ou (y)
        empêcher l'exercice, avec prise d'effet immédiate lors de la réalisation de la transaction en question, de
        chaque Option en circulation immédiatement avant la transaction ou non (que l'option en question soit alors exerçable
        ou non).

         

        (2)Si la Société signe un contrat
        définitif ou prend une décision par résolution de son Conseil d'Administration ou par approbation de ses actionnaires
        lors de l'assemblée des actionnaires visant à effectuer une ou plusieurs des transactions ou opérations décrites
        dans le paragraphe qui précède, la Société pourra fournir un préavis d'au moins vingt jours
        à la Personne Qualifiée à compter de la réalisation de la transaction ou de l'opération en question
        et donner à cette Personne Qualifiée la possibilité d'exercer ses Options (que les Options en question soient
        alors ou non acquises et exerçables), immédiatement avant, et sous réserve de, la réalisation de la
        transaction ou de l'opération en question.

         

        18.Condition Résolutoire au Contrat
        d'Attribution conclu avec la Personne Qualifiée

         

        L'accord concernant l'attribution des Options
        d’Achat d'Actions Sony Corporation pour l'Exercice 2015 conclu entre la Personne Qualifiée et la Société
        en date du 18 novembre 2015 (ci-après le « Contrat d'Attribution »), expirera automatiquement, sans
        aucune procédure particulière, si la Personne Qualifiée n'occupe pas le poste d'administrateur, de CEO ou
        d'employé de la Société ou du Groupe Sony à la Date d'Attribution.

         

         

         

        19.Questions
        relatives aux Montants de Capital et de Primes d'Emission supplémentaires générés par l'Emission d'Actions
        lors de l'Exercice des Options

         

        (1)Le montant de capital supplémentaire
        généré par l'émission d'actions lors de l'exercice des Options sera le montant obtenu en multipliant
        le plafond d'augmentation de capital, calculé conformément aux dispositions de l'Alinéa 1, Article 17 des
        Règles Comptables de la Société, au Japon (Company Accounting Ordinance of Japan), par 0,5, et toute fraction
        inférieure à un (1) yen résultant de ce calcul sera arrondie au un (1) yen le plus proche.

         

        (2)Le montant de la prime d'émission
        supplémentaire générée par l'émission d'actions lors de l'exercice des Options sera le montant
        obtenu en déduisant le capital supplémentaire, visé en (1) ci-dessus, du plafond d'augmentation de capital,
        également visé en (1) ci-dessus.

         

        20.Déclarations, Garanties, Engagements
        et Confirmations

         

        La Personne Qualifiée émettra les
        déclarations, les garanties, les engagements et les confirmations énoncés dans l'Annexe aux présentes.

         

         

        21.Interprétation

         

        Rien de ce qui figure ici ni dans le Contrat d'Attribution
        ne saurait être interprété comme donnant à la Personne Qualifiée un quelconque droit de recevoir
        des options ou d'acheter des actions ordinaires de la Société à l'avenir auprès de la Société
        ou de l'une quelconque de ses filiales. Rien de ce qui figure ici ni dans le Contrat d'Attribution ne saurait conférer à
        la Personne Qualifiée de quelconque droit de rester employée par la Société ou l'une quelconque de
        ses filiales, ni ne saurait constituer de contrat de travail ni interférer, de quelque manière que ce soit, avec
        le droit de la Société ou de ses filiales de réduire ou de modifier la rémunération de la Personne
        Qualifiée en vigueur au moment de l'octroi d'une quelconque Option ou autrement, ni de dénoncer le contrat de travail
        d'une Personne Qualifiée ni de changer le poste de la Personne Qualifiée ou les conditions de son emploi, avec ou
        sans justification. Rien de ce qui figure ici ni dans le Contrat d'Attribution ne saurait empêcher la Société,
        et la Société se réserve expressément le droit, de modifier les modalités des options d'achat
        d'actions ordinaires de la Société, le cas échéant, qui sont ou pourraient être accordées
        à l'avenir.

         

         

         

         

        Annexe

         

        DECLARATIONS ET GARANTIES POUR LES PARTICIPANTS
        NON AMERICAINS

         

        La Personne Qualifiée émet les
        confirmations suivantes en vertu de l'Article 17 des Conditions.

         

        1.(Contrat de Travail)

        Je comprends que rien de ce qui figure dans les
        modalités du Plan d’Options d’Achat d'Actions de la Sony Corporation (le « Plan ») ne
        fait partie de mon contrat de travail, sauf indication contraire figurant explicitement dans ce dernier. La participation au Plan
        ne donne aucun droit au maintien de mon emploi.

         

        Je comprends que ni la participation au Plan,
        ni l'octroi d'une Option, ne crée pour moi le droit de participer au Plan ni de me voir accorder des Options ni d'autres
        avantages à l'avenir. Le Plan pourra cesser de fonctionner à l'avenir, bien que toute Option existante accordée
        en vertu de ce Plan continuera conformément au Contrat d'Attribution, aux Annexes au Contrat d'Attribution et aux Modalités.

         

        Je comprends que je ne peux revendiquer aucun
        droit d’agir suite à une quelconque décision, omission ou mesure discrétionnaire qui pourrait intervenir
        à mon détriment, même si celle-ci s'avérait déraisonnable, irrationnelle ou pouvait être
        autrement considérée comme constituant une violation d'une quelconque obligation, hormis ce qui est prévu
        dans la documentation du Plan considéré.

         

        Je comprends que je n'ai aucun droit à
        compensation en cas de perte résultant du Plan, y compris de perte due à :

        ·        
        une réduction de mes droits ou de mes attentes en vertu du
        Plan, quelles qu'en soient les circonstances (y compris la dénonciation, légitime ou non, de mon contrat de travail) ;

        ·        
        l'exercice d'une mesure discrétionnaire ou d'une décision
        prise concernant un avantage ou concernant le Plan, ou le non exercice d'une mesure discrétionnaire ou la non-prise de décision ;
        ou

        ·        
        l'exploitation, la suspension, la dénonciation ou l'amendement
        du Plan.

         

        Je comprends que l'octroi de droits par la Société
        est entièrement discrétionnaire et que, par conséquent, les avantages et les droits acquis en vertu du Plan
        ne constituent ni du « salaire de base » ni une quelconque autre rémunération régulière
        au titre de l'emploi, et qu'aucun aspect du règlement ni du fonctionnement du Plan ne fait partie de mon contrat de travail
        ni de ma relation avec mon employeur, les droits résultant de ce contrat et de cette relation étant distincts du
        Plan et n'en étant nullement affectés. Je comprends et je reconnais qu'en aucun cas les avantages tirés du
        Plan ne seront inclus dans la rémunération liée à mon emploi aux fins de calculer les obligations de
        la Société et/ou du Groupe Sony (y compris mon employeur) en termes de primes, de retraite, d'indemnités de
        départ ou d'autres paiements de même nature.

         

        2.(Protection des Données)

        Je consens à la collecte, à l'utilisation
        et à la divulgation, par la Société et/ou les sociétés du Groupe Sony (y compris mon employeur),
        de toutes informations ou données personnelles nécessaires à l'administration du Plan.

         

        Sous réserve des exigences légales,
        les informations pourront être conservées après exercice ou annulation de mes Options. Je comprends que je
        peux contacter le Secrétariat du Plan de Stock Options, les Ressources Humaines de la Société, la Sony Corporation
        ou le Service des Ressources Humaines de la Sony Corporation of America (en utilisant les coordonnées qui m’auront
        été communiquées sous pli séparé), si j'ai des questions concernant la présente déclaration.

         

        Je comprends que les informations fournies à
        la Société, aux sociétés du Groupe Sony (y compris mon employeur) et/ou à leurs représentants
        tiers dûment autorisés choisis aux fins d'aider la Société ou les sociétés du Groupe Sony
        à administrer les Options et fournies dans le cadre du Plan, seront utilisées pour l'administration de mes Options
        en vertu du Plan.

         

         

        La Société et/ou les sociétés
        du Groupe Sony (y compris mon employeur) pourront communiquer des informations à d'autres entités (y compris des
        personnes agissant en qualité d'agents de la Société et/ou l'une quelconque des sociétés du
        Groupe Sony) dans le cadre de l'administration du Plan, sous réserve que ces entités préservent la sécurité
        des informations en question.

         

        Pour traiter les informations, la Société
        et/ou les sociétés du Groupe Sony (y compris mon employeur) pourront transmettre les informations à d'autres
        pays qui pourront assurer un niveau de protection obligatoire de ces informations potentiellement différent de celui qui
        prévaut dans mon pays de résidence.

         

        Je comprends que j'ai le droit d'accéder
        à certaines informations que détient le Plan me concernant et que, pour exercer ce droit, je peux contacter le Secrétariat
        du Plan de Stock Options, les Ressources Humaines de la Société, la Sony Corporation ou le Service des Ressources
        Humaines de la Sony Corporation of America (en utilisant les coordonnées qui m’auront été communiquées
        sous pli séparé).

         

        3.(Paiement des Taxes, Charges de Sécurité
        Sociale et Autres Montants)

        J'autorise la Société et les sociétés

        falls on a day before the Commencement Date of Exercisable Period) and the Qualified Person may exercise the Unexercisable Options

        and applicable to the Qualified Person, as in effect from time to time.

         

        11.Prohibition of Disposition

         

        (1)Except as provided in Paragraph (2)

        (2)Upon the death of the Qualified Person,
        outstanding Options that are vested and exercisable and granted to such Qualified Person may be exercised only by the executors
        or administrators of the Qualified Person’s estate or by any person or persons who shall have acquired such right to exercise
        by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, provided that no transfer by will or the laws of descent and distribution of
        any Option, or the right to exercise any Option, shall be effective to bind the Corporation unless the Corporation shall have been
        furnished with (a) a written notice thereof and a copy of the will and/or such evidence as the Corporation may deem necessary to
        establish the validity of the transfer and (b) an agreement by the transferee to comply with all the terms and conditions of the
        Options that are or would have been applicable to the Qualified Person (other than any terms and conditions relating to employment
        with the Corporation or one of its subsidiaries) and to be bound by the acknowledgements made by the Qualified Person in connection
        with the grant of the Options. Options that are not vested and exercisable at the death of the Qualified Person will terminate.

         

        12.Repurchase/Purchase

        him/her.

         

        13.Restrictions
        on Acquisition of Options through Transfer

        Depositary Receipt program in the United States pursuant to which American Depositary Receipts or “ADRs” represent

        of such Option shall be issued in the name of the depositary or its nominee under the Sony American Depositary Receipt Program

        the depositary under the Sony American Depositary Receipt Program shall immediately and automatically issue ADRs representing such
        shares of common stock of the Corporation in the name of the applicable Qualified Person and shall deliver such ADRs to such Qualified
        Person (or to an account held for the benefit of such Qualified Person) as soon as practicable following the effective date on
        which such issuance occurs. For simplicity, all references in the Allocation Agreement (as defined below in Article 16 of the Conditions)

        17.Treatment in Event of Corporate Transaction

         

        (1)In the event of any corporate transaction
        excluding (a) a consolidation, amalgamation or merger in which the Corporation is not the continuing corporation, or (b) share
        exchange (kabushiki-kokan) or share transfer (kabushiki-iten) pursuant to which the Corporation is to become a wholly-owned subsidiary
        of another corporation involving the Corporation, including a dissolution or liquidation of the Corporation, a sale of all or substantially
        all of the Corporation’s assets, a corporate split, or any other similar transaction, the Corporation may (x) cause the entity
        resulting from such transaction to execute an agreement providing that a holder of the Options shall have the right during the
        Term and upon the exercise of the Options to receive the class and amount of shares and other securities and property receivable
        upon such transaction by a holder of the number of shares in respect of which the Options could have been exercised immediately
        prior to such transaction or (y) prevent from being exercised, effective immediately upon the occurrence of such transaction, each
        Option outstanding immediately prior to such transaction (whether or not then exercisable).

         

        (2)In the event that the Corporation enters
        into a definitive agreement or makes a decision by board resolution or by shareholder approval at the shareholders’ meeting
        to effectuate one or more of the transactions or events described in the immediately preceding paragraph, the Corporation may provide
        not less than twenty days advance notice to the Qualified Person from the consummation of such transaction or event and give the
        Qualified Person the opportunity to exercise their Options (whether or not such Options are then vested or exercisable), immediately
        prior to, and subject to, the consummation of such transaction or event.

         

         

         

        18.Condition Subsequent of the Allocation
        Agreement with the Qualified Person

         

        The agreement concerning the allocation of
        the Stock Acquisition Rights of Sony Corporation for the Fiscal Year 2015 between the Qualified Person and the Corporation dated
        November 18, 2015 (hereinafter referred to as the “Allocation Agreement”), shall terminate, automatically, without
        any procedures being taken, in the event that the Qualified Person is not the position of director, corporate executive officer,
        or employee of the Corporation or of the Sony Group Companies on the Allotment Date.

         

        19.Matters
        concerning the Amount of Capital and the Additional Paid-in Capital Increased by the Issuance of Shares upon Exercise of Options

        and any fraction less than one (1) yen arising as a result of such calculation shall be rounded up to the nearest one (1) yen.

         

         

        (2)The amount of additional paid-in capital
        increased by the issuance of shares upon exercise of the Options shall be the amount obtained by deducting the capital to be increased,

        20.Representations, Warranties, Covenants
        and Confirmations

         

        The Qualified Person shall represent, warrant,
        covenant and confirm the matters set forth in the Exhibit hereto.

         

         

        21.Construction

         

        Nothing herein or the Allocation Agreement
        shall be construed to give the Qualified Person any right or entitlement to receive options to purchase common stock of the Corporation
        in the future from the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries. Nothing contained herein or the Allocation Agreement shall confer
        upon the Qualified Person any right to continue in the employment of the Corporation or any of its subsidiaries or constitute any
        contract or agreement of employment or interfere in any way with the right of the Corporation or its subsidiaries to reduce or
        modify a Qualified Person’s compensation in existence at the time of the granting of any Option or otherwise, or to terminate
        a Qualified Person’s employment or change the Qualified Person’s position or the terms of employment with or without
        cause. Nothing contained herein or the Allocation Agreement shall prevent the Corporation from, and the Corporation expressly reserves
        the right to, modify the terms and conditions of options to purchase common stock of the Corporation, if any, that are or may be
        granted in the future.

         

         

         

         

        Exhibit

         

        REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES FOR NON-US PARTICIPANTS

         

        The Qualified Person confirms the following
        matters pursuant to Article 17 of the Conditions.

         

        1.(Employment Contract)

        I understand that nothing in the Sony Corporation
        Stock Acquisition Rights Plan (the “Plan”) terms form part of my employment contract, unless my employment contract
        expressly states otherwise. Participation in the Plan does not create any right to continued employment.

         

        I understand that neither the participation in
        the Plan nor the grant of an Option creates any rights to participate in the Plan or to be granted any stock acquisition right,
        Option or award in the future. The Plan may cease to be operated in the future although any existing Options granted under the
        Plan will continue in accordance with the Allocation Agreement, Exhibits to the Allocation Agreement, and the Terms and Conditions.

         

        I understand that I have no claim or right of
        action in respect of any decision, omission or discretion which may operate to my disadvantage even if it is unreasonable, irrational
        or might otherwise be regarded as being in breach of any duty, except as set out in the relevant Plan documentation.

         

         

         

        I understand I have no right to compensation for
        any loss in relation to the Plan, including any loss in relation to:

        ·        
        a reduction of rights or expectations under the Plan in any circumstances
        (including lawful or unlawful termination of employment);

         

        ·        
        any exercise of a discretion or a decision taken in relation to an
        award or to the Plan, or any failure to exercise a discretion or take a decision; and

         

        ·        
        the operation, suspension, termination or amendment of the Plan.

         

        I understand that as the grant by the Corporation
        is entirely discretionary, the benefits and rights acquired under the Plan do not constitute “base salary” or other
        regular employment earnings and that nothing in the rules or operation of the Plan forms part of my contract of employment or employment
        relationship, which rights are separate from and not affected by, the Plan. I understand and agree that under no circumstances
        will the benefits derived from the Plan be included as part of my employment earnings for purposes of calculating any of the Corporation’s
        and/or the Sony group companies’ (including my employer) obligations to me for bonus, retirement, severance, or any other
        such payments.

         

         

         

        2.(Data Protection)

        I consent to the collection, use and disclosure
        by the Corporation and/or companies in the Sony group (including my employer) of any personal information or data necessary for
        the administration of the Plan.

         

        Subject to legislative requirements, the information

owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 50% or more of the total voting power represented by the Company’s then outstanding voting securities (excluding for this
purpose the Company or its Affiliates or any employee benefit plan of the Company) pursuant to a transaction or a series of related transactions of which the Board does not approve; (ii) a merger or consolidation of the Company, whether or not

such corporation outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation; or (iii) the stockholders of the Company approve an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets. For
purposes of this Employment Term Sheet, “Change in Control” shall be interpreted in a manner, and limited to the extent necessary, so that it will not cause adverse tax consequences for either party with respect to Section 409A.

 

	Code Section 280G:	  	 In the event that Executive becomes entitled to receive or receives any payment or benefit under this Employment Term Sheet or under any
other plan, agreement or arrangement with the Company, or any person whose actions result in a Change in Control or any other person affiliated with the Company or such person (all such payments and benefits being referred to herein as the
“Total Payments”) and it is determined that any of the Total Payments shall be subject to any excise tax pursuant to Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any similar or successor provision (the “Excise
Tax”) then the Company shall make an additional “gross up” payment to Executive in order to pay the Excise Tax.
  

	Section 409A:	  	 If any payments or benefits under this Employment Term Sheet or any subsequent employment agreement that would be considered deferred
compensation under Section 409A , then the following rules shall apply:
  

(i)     Any termination of Executive’s employment triggering payments or benefits must
constitute a “separation from service” under Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(h) before distribution of such benefits can commence. To the extent that the termination of Executive’s employment does
not constitute a separation of service under Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(h) (as the result of further services that are reasonably anticipated to be provided by Executive to the Company at the time
Executive’s employment terminates), any payments or benefits that constitute non-qualified deferred compensation under Section 409A shall be delayed until after the date of a subsequent event constituting a separation of service under Section
409A(a)(2)(A)(i) of the Code and Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(h).
  

(ii)    The above-described payments and benefits shall be paid on, or, in the case of
installments, shall not commence until, the sixtieth (60th) day following Executive’s termination of employment; provided that if Executive is deemed at the time of Executive’s separation from service to be a “specified
employee” for purposes of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, to the extent delayed commencement of any portion of the benefits to which Executive is entitled under this Employment Term Sheet or
any

  
 5 

			
		  	 subsequent employment agreement is required in order to avoid an additional tax under Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of
the Code, such portion of Executive’s benefits shall not be provided to Executive prior to the earlier of (a) the first business day following the expiration of the six-month period measured from the date of Executive’s separation
from service, (b) the date of Executive’s death, or (c) such earlier date that shall avoid the imposition of the additional tax under Section 409A(a)(1)(B). Upon the expiration of the applicable six-month period pursuant to
Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), all payments deferred shall be paid in a lump sum to Executive. It is intended that each installment of the above-described payments and benefits shall be treated as a separate “payment” for purposes of
Section 409A.
  
 (iii)  To the extent
that any of the above-described payments or benefits are deemed to be subject to Section 409A, this Employment Term Sheet or any subsequent employment agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with Section 409A and Department of Treasury
regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder in order to (a) preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided with respect to such payments and benefits, and (b) comply with the requirements of Section 409A. Nothing in
this Employment Term Sheet or any subsequent employment agreement shall be construed as a guarantee by the Company of any particular tax effect. The Company shall not be liable to Executive for any tax, penalty, or interest imposed on any amount
paid or payable hereunder by reason of Section 409A, or for reporting in good faith any payment made under this Employment Term Sheet or any subsequent employment agreement as an amount includible in gross income under Section 409A. Neither the
Company nor Executive shall have the right to accelerate or defer the delivery of any such payments or benefits except to the extent specifically permitted or required by Section 409A.

 

	Confidentiality; Work Product:	  	 Executive shall enter into the Company’s standard Employee Invention Assignment and Confidentiality Agreement.

 

	Governing Law	  	This term sheet shall be governed by the laws of Utah, without regard to principles of conflict of laws.

 By signing below, the parties agree that this term sheet will be binding upon the parties, will take effect on the
Effective Date, and will as of such date supersede any other employment, severance, change of control or related agreements between the undersigned executive and the Company and its affiliates. 

Date: November 10, 2015
