The
Receipts and statements confirming registration of American Depositary Shares may have incorporated in or attached to them such legends

Depositary Shares may be listed or to conform with any usage with respect thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions
to which any particular Receipts and American Depositary Shares are subject by reason of the date of issuance of the underlying Deposited
Securities or otherwise.

 

American
Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt, when the Receipt is properly endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer, shall
be transferable as certificated registered securities under the laws of the State of New York. American Depositary Shares not evidenced
by Receipts shall be transferable as uncertificated registered securities under the laws of the State of New York. The Depositary, notwithstanding
any notice to the contrary, may treat the Owner of American Depositary Shares as the absolute owner thereof for the purpose of determining
the person entitled to distribution of dividends or other distributions or to any notice provided for in this Deposit Agreement and for
all other purposes, and neither the Depositary nor the Company shall have any obligation or be subject to any liability under this Deposit
Agreement to any Holder of American Depositary Shares (but only to the Owner of those American Depositary Shares).

 

SECTION
2.2. Deposit of Shares.

 

Subject
to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, Shares or evidence of rights to receive Shares may be deposited under this Deposit
Agreement by delivery thereof to any Custodian, accompanied by any appropriate instruments or instructions for transfer, or endorsement,
in form satisfactory to the Custodian.

 

As
conditions of accepting Shares for deposit, the Depositary may require (i) any certification required by the Depositary or the Custodian
in accordance with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement, (ii) a written order directing the Depositary to deliver to, or upon the
written order of, the person or persons stated in that order American Depositary Shares representing those deposited Shares, (iii) evidence
satisfactory to the Depositary that those Shares have been re-registered in the books of the Company or the Foreign Registrar in the
name of the Depositary, a Custodian or a nominee of the Depositary or a Custodian, (iv) evidence satisfactory to the Depositary that
any necessary approval for the transfer or deposit has been granted by any governmental body in each applicable jurisdiction and (v)
an agreement or assignment, or other instrument satisfactory to the Depositary, that provides for the prompt transfer to the Custodian
of any dividend, or right to subscribe for additional Shares or to receive other property, that any person in whose name those Shares
are or have been recorded may thereafter receive upon or in respect of those Shares, or, in lieu thereof, such agreement of indemnity
or other agreement as shall be satisfactory to the Depositary.

 

    	-7-

     

    

 

 The
Depositary has been advised that, as of the date of this Deposit Agreement, FEFTA 
requires it to notify the applicable governmental authority within 45 days after accepting Shares for deposit, when its voting rights
or ownership interest in the Company, together with those of closely related parties, is 10% or more. The Company agrees to reimburse
the Depositary for its expenses, including fees and expenses of counsel, for applying for any required notification in connection with
deposits of Shares. The Company shall notify the Depositary of the number of Shares that would constitute 10% of the voting rights
or ownership interest in the Company and any time that number changes. 

 

 The
Company represents and warrants that it has not conducted, does not conduct, and does not have any plan to conduct, any business
(the “FEFTA Designated Business”) which would require a “foreign investor” (gaikoku toshika), as defined in
the FEFTA, to submit a notification to the Minister of Finance and any minister having jurisdiction over any business of the Company
prior to its “inward direct investment, etc.” (tainai chokusetsu toshi tou), as defined in the FEFTA, relating to the
Company pursuant to Article 27, Paragraph 1 of the FEFTA (the “FEFTA Pre-Notification”).  The Company shall notify
the Depositary promptly if it (i) engages or intends to engage in any business of that kind, (ii) proposes or intends to propose
agenda items to its general meeting of shareholders which would require the Depositary to submit a FEFTA Pre-Notification (which
includes an addition of any FEFTA Designated Business to its business purposes set forth in its Articles of Incorporation), or (iii)
conducts or intends to conduct any other corporate action that would require the Depositary to submit a FEFTA Pre-Notification.
 The Company shall not take any action requiring notice under the preceding sentence unless or until the relevant FEFTA
Pre-Notification has been submitted to the Minister of Finance and any minister having jurisdiction over any business of the
Company, and the applicable waiting period for the FEFTA Pre-Notification has expired in accordance with the FEFTA without any
recommendation or order relating to the FEFTA Pre-Notification having been issued by any of those ministers. 

   

 The
Depositary has been advised that, as of the date of this Deposit Agreement, if the Company does engage in any FEFTA Designated Business,
the Depositary would then be required to obtain pre-clearance from the applicable Japanese governmental authority prior to accepting
Shares for deposit and that the applicable governmental authority may take up to 30 days to respond to applications for that pre-clearance.
Accordingly, persons wishing to deposit Shares under those circumstances should notify the Depositary of that desire at least 30 days
in advance. The Depositary shall not accept Shares for deposit until any required pre-clearance has been obtained. The Company agrees
to reimburse the Depositary for its expenses, including fees and expenses of counsel, for applying for any required pre-clearance in
connection with deposits of Shares. 

 

At
the request and risk and expense of a person proposing to deposit Shares, and for the account of that person, the Depositary may receive
certificates for Shares to be deposited, together with the other instruments specified in this Section, for the purpose of forwarding
those Share certificates to the Custodian for deposit under this Deposit Agreement.

 

The
Depositary shall instruct each Custodian that, upon each delivery to a Custodian of a certificate or certificates for Shares to be deposited
under this Deposit Agreement, together with the other documents specified in this Section, that Custodian shall, as soon as transfer
and recordation can be accomplished, present that certificate or those certificates to the Company or the Foreign Registrar, if applicable,
for transfer and recordation of the Shares being deposited in the name of the Depositary or its nominee or that Custodian or its nominee.

 

Deposited
Securities shall be held by the Depositary or by a Custodian for the account and to the order of the Depositary or at such other place
or places as the Depositary shall determine.

SECTION
2.3. Delivery of American Depositary Shares.

 

The
Depositary shall instruct each Custodian that, upon receipt by that Custodian of any deposit pursuant to Section 2.2, together with the
other documents or evidence required under that Section, that Custodian shall notify the Depositary of that deposit and the person or
persons to whom or upon whose written order American Depositary Shares are deliverable in respect thereof. Upon receiving a notice of
a deposit from a Custodian, or upon the receipt of Shares or evidence of the right to receive Shares by the Depositary, the Depositary,
subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, shall deliver, to or upon the order of the person or persons entitled
thereto, the number of American Depositary Shares issuable in respect of that deposit, but only upon payment to the Depositary of the
fees and expenses of the Depositary for the delivery of those American Depositary Shares as provided in Section 5.9, and of all taxes
and governmental charges and fees payable in connection with that deposit and the transfer of the deposited Shares. However, the
Depositary shall deliver only whole numbers of American Depositary Shares.

 

SECTION
2.4. Registration of Transfer of American Depositary Shares; Combination and Split-up of Receipts; Interchange of Certificated
and Uncertificated American Depositary Shares.

 

The
Depositary, subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, shall register a transfer of American Depositary Shares on
its transfer books upon (i) in the case of certificated American Depositary Shares, surrender of the Receipt evidencing those American
Depositary Shares, by the Owner or by a duly authorized attorney, properly endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer
or (ii) in the case of uncertificated American Depositary Shares, receipt from the Owner of a proper instruction (including, for the
avoidance of doubt, instructions through DRS and Profile as provided in Section 2.9), and, in either case, duly stamped as may be required
by the laws of the State of New York and of the United States of America. Upon registration of a transfer, the Depositary shall deliver
the transferred American Depositary Shares to or upon the order of the person entitled thereto.

 

The
Depositary, subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, shall upon surrender of a Receipt or Receipts for the purpose
of effecting a split-up or combination of such Receipt or Receipts, execute and deliver a new Receipt or Receipts for any authorized
number of American Depositary Shares requested, evidencing the same aggregate number of American Depositary Shares as the Receipt or
Receipts surrendered.

 

The
Depositary, upon surrender of certificated American Depositary Shares for the purpose of exchanging for uncertificated American Depositary
Shares, shall cancel the Receipt evidencing those certificated American Depositary Shares and send the Owner a statement confirming that
the Owner is the owner of the same number of uncertificated American Depositary Shares. The Depositary, upon receipt of a proper instruction
(including, for the avoidance of doubt, instructions through DRS and Profile as provided in Section 2.9) from the Owner of uncertificated
American Depositary Shares for the purpose of exchanging for certificated American Depositary Shares, shall cancel those uncertificated
American Depositary Shares and register and deliver to the Owner a Receipt evidencing the same number of certificated American Depositary
Shares.

The
Depositary may appoint one or more co-transfer agents for the purpose of effecting registration of transfers of American Depositary Shares
and combinations and split-ups of Receipts at designated transfer offices on behalf of the Depositary. In carrying out its functions,
a co-transfer agent may require evidence of authority and compliance with applicable laws and other requirements by Owners or persons
entitled to American Depositary Shares and will be entitled to protection and indemnity to the same extent as the Depositary.

 

SECTION
2.5. Surrender of American Depositary Shares and Withdrawal of Deposited Securities.

 

Upon
surrender of American Depositary Shares for the purpose of withdrawal of the Deposited Securities represented thereby and payment of
the fee of the Depositary for the surrender of American Depositary Shares as provided in Section 5.9 and payment of all taxes and governmental
charges payable in connection with that surrender and withdrawal of the Deposited Securities, and subject to the terms and conditions
of this Deposit Agreement, the Owner of those American Depositary Shares shall be entitled to delivery (to the extent delivery can then
be lawfully and practicably made), to or as instructed by that Owner, of the amount of Deposited Securities at the time represented by
those American Depositary Shares, but not any money or other property as to which a record date for distribution to Owners has
passed (since money or other property of that kind will be delivered or paid on the scheduled payment date to the Owner as of that record
date), and except that the Depositary shall not be required to accept surrender of American Depositary Shares for the purpose
of withdrawal to the extent it would require delivery of a fraction of a Deposited Security. That delivery shall be made, as provided
in this Section, without unreasonable delay.

 

As
a condition of accepting a surrender of American Depositary Shares for the purpose of withdrawal of Deposited Securities, the Depositary
may require (i) that each surrendered Receipt be properly endorsed in blank or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer in blank
and (ii) that the surrendering Owner execute and deliver to the Depositary a written order directing the Depositary to cause the Deposited
Securities being withdrawn to be delivered to or upon the written order of a person or persons designated in that order.

 

Thereupon,
the Depositary shall direct the Custodian to deliver, subject to Sections 2.6, 3.1 and 3.2, the other terms and conditions of this Deposit
Agreement and local market rules and practices, to the surrendering Owner or to or upon the written order of the person or persons designated
in the order delivered to the Depositary as above provided, the amount of Deposited Securities represented by the surrendered American
Depositary Shares, and the Depositary may charge the surrendering Owner a fee and its expenses for giving that direction by cable (including
SWIFT) or facsimile transmission.

 

    	-10-

     

    

 

If
Deposited Securities are delivered physically upon surrender of American Depositary Shares for the purpose of withdrawal, that delivery
will be made at the Custodian’s office, except that, at the request, risk and expense of an Owner surrendering American
Depositary Shares for withdrawal of Deposited Securities, and for the account of that Owner, the Depositary shall direct the Custodian
to forward any cash or other property comprising, and forward a certificate or certificates, if applicable, and other proper documents
of title, if any, for, the Deposited Securities represented by the surrendered American Depositary Shares to the Depositary for delivery
at the Depositary’s Office or to another address specified in the order received from the surrendering Owner.

 

 The Company has represented
and warranted as of the date of this Deposit Agreement that it has not conducted, does not conduct, and does not have any plan to conduct,
any business (the “FEFTA Designated Business”) which would require a “foreign investor” (gaikoku toshika), as
defined in the FEFTA, to submit a notification to the Minister of Finance and any minister having jurisdiction over any business of the
Company prior to its “inward direct investment, etc.” (tainai chokusetsu toshi tou), as defined in the FEFTA, relating to
the Company pursuant to Article 27, Paragraph 1 of the FEFTA (the “FEFTA Pre-Notification”). The
Depositary has been advised that, as of the date of this Deposit Agreement, if the Company does engage in any FEFTA Designated Business,
under FEFTA, any Foreign Investor (as defined under FEFTA) expecting to receive delivery of Shares upon surrender of American Depositary
Shares would be required to obtain pre-clearance from the applicable Japanese governmental authority prior to accepting that delivery
and that the applicable governmental authority may take up to 30 days to respond to applications for that pre-clearance. Accordingly,
Owners that are Foreign Investors wishing to surrender American Depositary Shares for the purpose of withdrawal of deposited Shares under
those circumstances should apply or advise the persons to whom they intend to direct delivery of Shares to apply for pre-clearance
at least 30 days in advance. The Depositary shall not accept surrender of American Depositary Shares for the purpose of withdrawal of
Shares until it receives assurances satisfactory to it that any required pre-clearance for delivery of the Shares to be withdrawn to
a Foreign Investor has been obtained.

 

SECTION
2.6. Limitations on Delivery, Registration of Transfer and Surrender of American Depositary Shares.

 

As
a condition precedent to the delivery, registration of transfer or surrender of any American Depositary Shares or split-up or combination
of any Receipt or withdrawal of any Deposited Securities, the Depositary, Custodian or Registrar may require payment from the depositor
of Shares or the presenter of the Receipt or instruction for registration of transfer or surrender of American Depositary Shares not
evidenced by a Receipt of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any tax or other governmental charge and any stock transfer or registration
fee with respect thereto (including any such tax or charge and fee with respect to Shares being deposited or withdrawn) and payment of
any applicable fees as provided in this Deposit Agreement, may require the production of proof satisfactory to it as to the identity
and genuineness of any signature and may also require compliance with any regulations the Depositary may establish consistent with the
provisions of this Deposit Agreement, including, without limitation, this Section 2.6.

 

    	-11-

     

    

 

The
Depositary may refuse to accept deposits of Shares for delivery of American Depositary Shares or to register transfers of American Depositary
Shares in particular instances, or may suspend deposits of Shares or registration of transfer generally, whenever it or the Company considers
it necessary or advisable to do so. The Depositary may refuse surrenders of American Depositary Shares for the purpose of withdrawal
of Deposited Securities in particular instances, or may suspend surrenders for the purpose of withdrawal generally, but, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Deposit Agreement, only for (i) temporary delays caused by closing of the Depositary’s register
or the register of holders of Shares maintained by the Company or the Foreign Registrar, or the deposit of Shares, in connection with
voting at a shareholders’ meeting or the payment of dividends, (ii) the payment of fees, taxes and similar charges, (iii) compliance
with any U.S. or foreign laws or governmental regulations relating to the American Depositary Shares or to the withdrawal of the Deposited
Securities or (iv) any other reason that, at the time, is permitted under paragraph I(A)(1) of the General Instructions to Form F-6 under
the Securities Act of 1933 or any successor to that provision.

 

The
Depositary shall not knowingly accept for deposit under this Deposit Agreement any Shares that, at the time of deposit, are Restricted
Securities.

 

SECTION
2.7. Lost Receipts, etc.

 

If
a Receipt is mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Depositary shall deliver to the Owner the American Depositary Shares evidenced
by that Receipt in uncertificated form or, if requested by the Owner, execute and deliver a new Receipt of like tenor in exchange and
substitution for such mutilated Receipt, upon surrender and cancellation of that mutilated Receipt, or in lieu of and in substitution
for that destroyed, lost or stolen Receipt. However, before the Depositary will deliver American Depositary Shares in uncertificated
form or execute and deliver a new Receipt, in substitution for a destroyed, lost or stolen Receipt, the Owner must (a) file with the
Depositary (i) a request for that replacement before the Depositary has notice that the Receipt has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser
and (ii) a sufficient indemnity bond and (b) satisfy any other reasonable requirements imposed by the Depositary.

 

SECTION
2.8. Cancellation and Destruction of Surrendered Receipts.

 

The
Depositary shall cancel all Receipts surrendered to it and is authorized to destroy Receipts so cancelled.

 

SECTION
2.9. DTC Direct Registration System and Profile Modification System.

 

(a) Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 2.4, the parties acknowledge that DTC’s Direct Registration System (“DRS”) and Profile
Modification System (“Profile”) apply to the American Depositary Shares upon acceptance thereof to DRS by DTC. DRS
is the system administered by DTC that facilitates interchange between registered holding of uncertificated securities and holding of
security entitlements in those securities through DTC and a DTC participant. Profile is a required feature of DRS that allows a DTC participant,
claiming to act on behalf of an Owner of American Depositary Shares, to direct the Depositary to register a transfer of those American
Depositary Shares to DTC or its nominee and to deliver those American Depositary Shares to the DTC account of that DTC participant without
receipt by the Depositary of prior authorization from the Owner to register that transfer.

 

    	-12-

     

    

 

(b) In
connection with DRS/Profile, the parties acknowledge that the Depositary will not determine whether the DTC participant that is claiming
to be acting on behalf of an Owner in requesting a registration of transfer and delivery as described in paragraph (a) above has the
actual authority to act on behalf of that Owner (notwithstanding any requirements under the Uniform Commercial Code). For the avoidance
of doubt, the provisions of Sections 5.3 and 5.8 apply to the matters arising from the use of the DRS/Profile. The parties agree that
the Depositary’s reliance on and compliance with instructions received by the Depositary through the DRS/Profile system and otherwise
in accordance with this Deposit Agreement shall not constitute negligence or bad faith on the part of the Depositary.

 

	 	ARTICLE 3.	CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS OF OWNERS
  AND HOLDERS OF AMERICAN DEPOSITARY SHARES

 

SECTION
3.1. Filing Proofs, Certificates and Other Information.

 

Any
person presenting Shares for deposit or any Owner or Holder may be required from time to time to file with the Depositary or the Custodian
such proof of citizenship or residence, exchange control approval, or such information relating to the registration on the books of the
Company or the Foreign Registrar, if applicable, to execute such certificates and to make such representations and warranties, as the
Depositary may deem necessary or proper. The Depositary may withhold the delivery or registration of transfer of American Depositary
Shares, the distribution of any dividend or other distribution or of the proceeds thereof or the delivery of any Deposited Securities
until that proof or other information is filed or those certificates are executed or those representations and warranties are made.

 

SECTION
3.2. Liability of Owner for Taxes.

 

If
any tax or other governmental charge shall become payable by the Custodian or the Depositary with respect to or in connection with any
American Depositary Shares or any Deposited Securities represented by any American Depositary Shares or in connection with a transaction
to which Section 4.8 applies, that tax or other governmental charge shall be payable by the Owner of those American Depositary Shares
to the Depositary. The Depositary may refuse to register any transfer of those American Depositary Shares or any withdrawal of Deposited
Securities represented by those American Depositary Shares until that payment is made, and may withhold any dividends or other distributions
or the proceeds thereof, or may sell for the account of the Owner any part or all of the Deposited Securities represented by those American
Depositary Shares and apply those dividends or other distributions or the net proceeds of any sale of that kind in payment of that tax
or other governmental charge but, even after a sale of that kind, the Owner of those American Depositary Shares shall remain liable
for any deficiency. The Depositary shall distribute any net proceeds of a sale made under this Section that are not used to pay taxes
or governmental charges to the Owners entitled to them in accordance with Section 4.1. If the number of Shares represented by each American
Depositary Share decreases as a result of a sale of Deposited Securities under this Section, the Depositary may call for surrender of
the American Depositary Shares to be exchanged on a mandatory basis for a lesser number of American Depositary Shares and may sell American
Depositary Shares to the extent necessary to avoid distributing fractions of American Depositary Shares in that exchange and distribute
the net proceeds of that sale to the Owners entitled to them.

 

SECTION
3.3. Warranties on Deposit of Shares.

 

Every
person depositing Shares under this Deposit Agreement shall be deemed thereby to represent and warrant that those Shares and each certificate
therefor, if applicable, are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and were not issued in violation of any preemptive or similar
rights of the holders of outstanding securities of the Company and that the person making that deposit is duly authorized so to do. Every
depositing person shall also be deemed to represent that the Shares, at the time of deposit, are not Restricted Securities. All representations
and warranties deemed made under this Section shall survive the deposit of Shares and delivery of American Depositary Shares.

 

SECTION
3.4. Disclosure of Interests.

 

When
required in order to comply with applicable laws and regulations or the articles of association or similar document of the Company, the
Company may from time to time request each Owner and Holder to provide to the Depositary information relating to: (a) the capacity in
which it holds American Depositary Shares, (b) the identity of any Holders or other persons or entities then or previously interested
in those American Depositary Shares and the nature of those interests and (c) any other matter where disclosure of such matter is required
for that compliance. Each Owner and Holder agrees to provide all information known to it in response to a request made pursuant to this
Section. Each Holder consents to the disclosure by the Depositary and the Owner or any other Holder through which it holds American Depositary
Shares, directly or indirectly, of all information responsive to a request made pursuant to this Section relating to that Holder that
is known to that Owner or other Holder. The Depositary agrees to use reasonable efforts to comply with written instructions requesting
that the Depositary forward any request authorized under this Section to the Owners and to forward to the Company any responses it receives
in response to that request. The Depositary may charge the Company a fee and its expenses for complying with requests under this Section
3.4.

	 	ARTICLE 4.	THE DEPOSITED SECURITIES

 

SECTION
4.1. Cash Distributions.

 

Whenever
the Depositary receives any cash dividend or other cash distribution on Deposited Securities, the Depositary shall, subject to the provisions
of Section 4.5, convert that dividend or other distribution into Dollars and distribute the amount thus received (net of the fees and
expenses of the Depositary as provided in Section 5.9) to the Owners entitled thereto, in proportion to the number of American Depositary
Shares representing those Deposited Securities held by them respectively; provided, however, that if the Custodian or the
Depositary shall be required to withhold and does withhold from that cash dividend or other cash distribution an amount on account of
taxes or other governmental charges, the amount distributed to the Owners of the American Depositary Shares representing those Deposited
Securities shall be reduced accordingly. However, the Depositary will not pay any Owner a fraction of one cent, but will round
each Owner’s entitlement to the nearest whole cent.

 

The
Company or its agent will remit to the appropriate governmental agency in each applicable jurisdiction all amounts withheld and owing
to such agency.

 

If
a cash distribution would represent a return of all or substantially all the value of the Deposited Securities underlying American Depositary
Shares, the Depositary may:

 

 (i)
require payment of or deduct the fee for surrender of American Depositary Shares (whether or not it is also requiring surrender of American
Depositary Shares) as a condition of making that cash distribution; or

 

 (ii)
sell all Deposited Securities other than the subject cash distribution and add any net cash proceeds of that sale to the cash distribution,
call for surrender of all those American Depositary Shares and require that surrender as a condition of making that cash distribution.

 

If
the Depositary acts under this paragraph, that action shall also be a Termination Option Event.

 

    	-14-

     

    

 

SECTION
4.2. Distributions Other Than Cash, Shares or Rights.

 

Subject
to the provisions of Sections 4.11 and 5.9, whenever the Depositary receives any distribution other than a distribution described in
Section 4.1, 4.3 or 4.4 on Deposited Securities (but not in exchange for or in conversion or in lieu of Deposited Securities), the Depositary
shall cause the securities or property received by it to be distributed to the Owners entitled thereto, after deduction or upon payment
of any fees and expenses of the Depositary and any taxes or other governmental charges, in proportion to the number of American Depositary
Shares representing such Deposited Securities held by them respectively, in any manner that the Depositary deems equitable and practicable
for accomplishing that distribution (which may be a distribution of depositary shares representing the securities received); provided,
however, that if in the opinion of the Depositary such distribution cannot be made proportionately among the Owners entitled thereto,
or if for any other reason (including, but not limited to, any requirement that the Company or the Depositary withhold an amount on account
of taxes or other governmental charges or that securities received must be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 in order to be
distributed to Owners or Holders) the Depositary deems such distribution not to be lawful and feasible, the Depositary may adopt such
other method as it may deem equitable and practicable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, including, but not limited to,
the public or private sale of the securities or property thus received, or any part thereof, and distribution of the net proceeds of
any such sale (net of the fees and expenses of the Depositary as provided in Section 5.9) to the Owners entitled thereto, all in the
manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.1. The Depositary may withhold any distribution of securities under this
Section 4.2 if it has not received satisfactory assurances from the Company that the distribution does not require registration under
the Securities Act of 1933. The Depositary may sell, by public or private sale, an amount of securities or other property it would otherwise
distribute under this Section 4.2 that is sufficient to pay its fees and expenses in respect of that distribution.

 

If
a distribution to be made under this Section 4.2 would represent a return of all or substantially all the value of the Deposited Securities
underlying American Depositary Shares, the Depositary may:

 

 (i)
require payment of or deduct the fee for surrender of American Depositary Shares (whether or not it is also requiring surrender of American
Depositary Shares) as a condition of making that distribution; or

 

 (ii)
sell all Deposited Securities other than the subject distribution and add any net cash proceeds of that sale to the distribution, call
for surrender of all those American Depositary Shares and require that surrender as a condition of making that distribution.

 

If
the Depositary acts under this paragraph, that action shall also be a Termination Option Event.

 

    	-15-

     

    

 

SECTION
4.3. Distributions in Shares.

 

Whenever
the Depositary receives any distribution on Deposited Securities consisting of a dividend in, or free distribution of, Shares, the Depositary
may deliver to the Owners entitled thereto, in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares representing those Deposited Securities
held by them respectively, an aggregate number of American Depositary Shares representing the amount of Shares received as that dividend
or free distribution, subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement with respect to the deposit of Shares and issuance
of American Depositary Shares, including withholding of any tax or governmental charge as provided in Section 4.11 and payment of the
fees and expenses of the Depositary as provided in Section 5.9 (and the Depositary may sell, by public or private sale, an amount of
the Shares received (or American Depositary Shares representing those Shares) sufficient to pay its fees and expenses in respect of that
distribution). In lieu of delivering fractional American Depositary Shares, the Depositary may sell the amount of Shares represented
by the aggregate of those fractions (or American Depositary Shares representing those Shares) and distribute the net proceeds, all in
the manner and subject to the conditions described in Section 4.1. If and to the extent that additional American Depositary Shares are
not delivered and Shares or American Depositary Shares are not sold, each American Depositary Share shall thenceforth also represent
the additional Shares distributed on the Deposited Securities represented thereby.

 

If
the Company declares a distribution in which holders of Deposited Securities have a right to elect whether to receive cash, Shares or
other securities or a combination of those things, or a right to elect to have a distribution sold on their behalf, the Depositary may,
after consultation with the Company, make that right of election available for exercise by Owners in any manner the Depositary considers
to be lawful and practical. As a condition of making a distribution election right available to Owners, the Depositary may require satisfactory
assurances from the Company that doing so does not require registration of any securities under the Securities Act of 1933 that has not
been effected.

 

SECTION
4.4. Rights.

 

(a) If
rights are granted to the Depositary in respect of deposited Shares to purchase additional Shares or other securities, the Company and
the Depositary shall endeavor to consult as to the actions, if any, the Depositary should take in connection with that grant of rights.
The Depositary may, to the extent deemed by it to be lawful and practical (i) if requested in writing by the Company, grant to all or
certain Owners rights to instruct the Depositary to purchase the securities to which the rights relate and deliver those securities or
American Depositary Shares representing those securities to Owners, (ii) if requested in writing by the Company, deliver the rights to
or to the order of certain Owners, or (iii) sell the rights to the extent practicable and distribute the net proceeds of that sale to
Owners entitled to those proceeds. To the extent rights are not exercised, delivered or disposed of under (i), (ii) or (iii) above, the
Depositary shall permit the rights to lapse unexercised.

 

    	-16-

     

    

 

(b) If
the Depositary will act under (a)(i) above, the Company and the Depositary will enter into a separate agreement setting forth the conditions
and procedures applicable to the particular offering. Upon instruction from an applicable Owner in the form the Depositary specified
and upon payment by that Owner to the Depositary of an amount equal to the purchase price of the securities to be received upon the exercise
of the rights, the Depositary shall, on behalf of that Owner, exercise the rights and purchase the securities. The purchased securities
shall be delivered to, or as instructed by, the Depositary. The Depositary shall (i) deposit the purchased Shares under this Deposit
Agreement and deliver American Depositary Shares representing those Shares to that Owner or (ii) deliver or cause the purchased Shares
or other securities to be delivered to or to the order of that Owner. The Depositary will not act under (a)(i) above unless the offer
and sale of the securities to which the rights relate are registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Depositary has received
an opinion of United States counsel that is satisfactory to it to the effect that those securities may be sold and delivered to the applicable
Owners without registration under the Securities Act of 1933.

 

(c) If
the Depositary will act under (a)(ii) above, the Company and the Depositary will enter into a separate agreement setting forth the conditions
and procedures applicable to the particular offering. Upon (i) the request of an applicable Owner to deliver the rights allocable to
the American Depositary Shares of that Owner to an account specified by that Owner to which the rights can be delivered and (ii) receipt
of such documents as the Company and the Depositary agreed to require to comply with applicable law, the Depositary will deliver those
rights as requested by that Owner.

 

(d) If
the Depositary will act under (a)(iii) above, the Depositary will use reasonable efforts to sell the rights in proportion to the number
of American Depositary Shares held by the applicable Owners and pay the net proceeds to the Owners otherwise entitled to the rights that
were sold, upon an averaged or other practical basis without regard to any distinctions among such Owners because of exchange restrictions
or the date of delivery of any American Depositary Shares or otherwise.

 

(e) Payment
or deduction of the fees of the Depositary as provided in Section 5.9 and payment or deduction of the expenses of the Depositary and
any applicable taxes or other governmental charges shall be conditions of any delivery of securities or payment of cash proceeds under
this Section 4.4.

 

(f) The
Depositary shall not be responsible for any failure to determine that it may be lawful or feasible to make rights available to or exercise
rights on behalf of Owners in general or any Owner in particular, or to sell rights.

 

SECTION
4.5. Conversion of Foreign Currency.

 

Whenever
the Depositary or the Custodian receives foreign currency, by way of dividends or other distributions or the net proceeds from the sale
of securities, property or rights, and if at the time of the receipt thereof the foreign currency so received can in the judgment of
the Depositary be converted on a reasonable basis into Dollars and the resulting Dollars transferred to the United States, the Depositary
or one of its agents or affiliates or the Custodian shall convert or cause to be converted by sale or in any other manner that it may
determine that foreign currency into Dollars, and those Dollars shall be distributed to the Owners entitled thereto. A cash distribution
may be made upon an averaged or other practicable basis without regard to any distinctions among Owners based on exchange restrictions,
the date of delivery of any American Depositary Shares or otherwise and shall be net of any expenses of conversion into Dollars incurred
by the Depositary as provided in Section 5.9.

 

    	-17-

     

    

 

If
a conversion of foreign currency or the repatriation or distribution of Dollars can be effected only with the approval or license of
any government or agency thereof, the Depositary may, but will not be required to, file an application for that approval or license.

 

If
the Depositary determines that in its judgment any foreign currency received by the Depositary or the Custodian is not convertible on
a reasonable basis into Dollars transferable to the United States, or if any approval or license of any government or agency thereof
that is required for such conversion is not filed or sought by the Depositary or is not obtained within a reasonable period as determined
by the Depositary, the Depositary may distribute the foreign currency received by the Depositary to, or in its discretion may hold such
foreign currency uninvested and without liability for interest thereon for the respective accounts of, the Owners entitled to receive
the same.

 

If
any conversion of foreign currency, in whole or in part, cannot be effected for distribution to some of the Owners entitled thereto,
the Depositary may in its discretion make that conversion and distribution in Dollars to the extent practicable and permissible to the
Owners entitled thereto and may distribute the balance of the foreign currency received by the Depositary to, or hold that balance uninvested
and without liability for interest thereon for the account of, the Owners entitled thereto.

 

The
Depositary may convert currency itself or through any of its affiliates, or the Custodian or the Company may convert currency and pay
Dollars to the Depositary. Where the Depositary converts currency itself or through any of its affiliates, the Depositary acts as principal
for its own account and not as agent, advisor, broker or fiduciary on behalf of any other person and earns revenue, including, without
limitation, transaction spreads, that it will retain for its own account. The revenue is based on, among other things, the difference
between the exchange rate assigned to the currency conversion made under this Deposit Agreement and the rate that the Depositary or its
affiliate receives when buying or selling foreign currency for its own account. The Depositary makes no representation that the exchange
rate used or obtained by it or its affiliate in any currency conversion under this Deposit Agreement will be the most favorable rate
that could be obtained at the time or that the method by which that rate will be determined will be the most favorable to Owners, subject
to the Depositary’s obligations under Section 5.3. The methodology used to determine exchange rates used in currency conversions
made by the Depositary is available upon request. Where the Custodian converts currency, the Custodian has no obligation to obtain the
most favorable rate that could be obtained at the time or to ensure that the method by which that rate will be determined will be the
most favorable to Owners, and the Depositary makes no representation that the rate is the most favorable rate and will not be liable
for any direct or indirect losses associated with the rate. In certain instances, the Depositary may receive dividends or other distributions
from the Company in Dollars that represent the proceeds of a conversion of foreign currency or translation from foreign currency at a
rate that was obtained or determined by or on behalf of the Company and, in such cases, the Depositary will not engage in, or be responsible
for, any foreign currency transactions and neither it nor the Company makes any representation that the rate obtained or determined by
the Company is the most favorable rate and neither it nor the Company will be liable for any direct or indirect losses associated with
the rate.

 

SECTION
4.6. Fixing of Record Date.

 

Whenever
a cash dividend, cash distribution or any other distribution is made on Deposited Securities or rights to purchase Shares or other securities
are issued with respect to Deposited Securities (which rights will be delivered to or exercised or sold on behalf of Owners in accordance
with Section 4.4) or the Depositary receives notice that a distribution or issuance of that kind will be made, or whenever the Depositary
receives notice that a meeting of holders of Shares will be held in respect of which the Company has requested the Depositary to send
a notice under Section 4.7, or whenever the Depositary will assess a fee or charge against the Owners, or whenever the Depositary causes
a change in the number of Shares that are represented by each American Depositary Share, or whenever the Depositary otherwise finds it
necessary or convenient, the Depositary shall fix a record date, which shall be the same as, or as near as practicable to, any corresponding
record date set by the Company with respect to Shares, (a) for the determination of the Owners (i) who shall be entitled to receive the
benefit of that dividend or other distribution or those rights, (ii) who shall be entitled to give instructions for the exercise of voting
rights at that meeting, (iii) who shall be responsible for that fee or charge or (iv) for any other purpose for which the record date
was set, or (b) on or after which each American Depositary Share will represent the changed number of Shares. Subject to the provisions
of Sections 4.1 through 4.5 and to the other terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, the Owners on a record date fixed by the
Depositary shall be entitled to receive the amount distributable by the Depositary with respect to that dividend or other distribution
or those rights or the net proceeds of sale thereof in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares held by them respectively,
to give voting instructions or to act in respect of the other matter for which that record date was fixed, or be responsible for that
fee or charge, as the case may be.

 

    	-18-

     

    

 

SECTION
4.7. Voting of Deposited Shares.

 

(a) Upon
receipt of notice of any meeting of holders of Shares at which holders of Shares will be entitled to vote, if requested in writing by
the Company, the Depositary shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, Disseminate to the Owners a notice, the form of which shall be
in the sole discretion of the Depositary, that shall contain (i) the information contained in the notice of meeting received by the Depositary,
(ii) a statement that the Owners as of the close of business on a specified record date will be entitled, subject to any applicable provision
of Japanese law and of the articles of association or similar documents of the Company, to instruct the Depositary as to the exercise
of the voting rights pertaining to the amount of Shares represented by their respective American Depositary Shares, (iii) a statement
as to the manner in which those instructions may be given and (iv) the last date on which the Depositary will accept instructions (the
“Instruction Cutoff Date”).

 

(b) Upon
the written request of an Owner of American Depositary Shares, as of the date of the request or, if a record date was specified by the
Depositary, as of that record date, received on or before any Instruction Cutoff Date established by the Depositary, the Depositary may,
and if the Depositary sent a notice under the preceding paragraph shall, endeavor, in so far as practicable, to vote or cause to be voted
the amount of deposited Shares represented by those American Depositary Shares in accordance with the instructions set forth in that
request. The Depositary shall not vote or attempt to exercise the right to vote that attaches to the deposited Shares other than in accordance
with instructions given by Owners and received by the Depositary.

 

(c) There
can be no assurance that Owners generally or any Owner in particular will receive the notice described in paragraph (a) above in time
to enable Owners to give instructions to the Depositary prior to the Instruction Cutoff Date.

 

(d) In
order to give Owners a reasonable opportunity to instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of voting rights relating to Shares, if the
Company will request the Depositary to Disseminate a notice under paragraph (a) above, the Company shall give the Depositary notice of
the meeting, details concerning the matters to be voted upon and copies of materials to be made available to holders of Shares in connection
with the meeting not less than 45 days prior to the meeting date.

 

SECTION
4.8. Tender and Exchange Offers; Redemption, Replacement or Cancellation of Deposited Securities.

 

(a) The
Depositary shall not tender any Deposited Securities in response to any voluntary cash tender offer, exchange offer or similar offer
made to holders of Deposited Securities (a “Voluntary Offer”), except when instructed in writing to do so by an Owner
surrendering American Depositary Shares and subject to any conditions or procedures the Depositary may require.

 

    	-19-

     

    

 

(b) If
the Depositary receives a written notice that Deposited Securities have been redeemed for cash or otherwise purchased for cash in a transaction
that is mandatory and binding on the Depositary as a holder of those Deposited Securities (a “Redemption”), the Depositary,
at the expense of the Company, shall (i) if required, surrender Deposited Securities that have been redeemed to the issuer of those securities
or its agent on the redemption date, (ii) Disseminate a notice to Owners (A) notifying them of that Redemption, (B) calling for surrender
of a corresponding number of American Depositary Shares and (C) notifying them that the called American Depositary Shares have been converted
into a right only to receive the money received by the Depositary upon that Redemption and those net proceeds shall be the Deposited
Securities to which Owners of those converted American Depositary Shares shall be entitled upon surrenders of those American Depositary
Shares in accordance with Section 2.5 or 6.2 and (iii) distribute the money received upon that Redemption to the Owners entitled to it
upon surrender by them of called American Depositary Shares in accordance with Section 2.5 (and, for the avoidance of doubt, Owners shall
not be entitled to receive that money under Section 4.1). If the Redemption affects less than all the Deposited Securities, the Depositary
shall call for surrender a corresponding portion of the outstanding American Depositary Shares and only those American Depositary Shares
will automatically be converted into a right to receive the net proceeds of the Redemption. The Depositary shall allocate the American
Depositary Shares converted under the preceding sentence among the Owners pro-rata to their respective holdings of American Depositary
Shares immediately prior to the Redemption, except that the allocations may be adjusted so that no fraction of a converted American
Depositary Share is allocated to any Owner. A Redemption of all or substantially all of the Deposited Securities shall be a Termination
Option Event.

 

(c) If
the Depositary is notified of or there occurs any change in nominal value or any subdivision, combination or any other reclassification
of the Deposited Securities or any recapitalization, reorganization, sale of assets substantially as an entirety, merger or consolidation
affecting the issuer of the Deposited Securities or to which it is a party that is mandatory and binding on the Depositary as a holder
of Deposited Securities and, as a result, securities or other property have been or will be delivered in exchange, conversion, replacement
or in lieu of, Deposited Securities (a “Replacement”), the Depositary shall, if required, surrender the old Deposited
Securities affected by that Replacement of Shares and hold, as new Deposited Securities under this Deposit Agreement, the new securities
or other property delivered to it in that Replacement. However, the Depositary may elect to sell those new Deposited Securities
if in the opinion of the Depositary it is not lawful or not practical for it to hold those new Deposited Securities under this Deposit
Agreement because those new Deposited Securities may not be distributed to Owners without registration under the Securities Act of 1933
or for any other reason, at public or private sale, at such places and on such terms as it deems proper and proceed as if those new Deposited
Securities had been Redeemed under paragraph (b) above. A Replacement shall be a Termination Option Event.

 

(d) In
the case of a Replacement where the new Deposited Securities will continue to be held under this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary may
call for the surrender of outstanding Receipts to be exchanged for new Receipts specifically describing the new Deposited Securities
and the number of those new Deposited Securities represented by each American Depositary Share. If the number of Shares represented by
each American Depositary Share decreases as a result of a Replacement, the Depositary may call for surrender of the American Depositary
Shares to be exchanged on a mandatory basis for a lesser number of American Depositary Shares and may sell American Depositary Shares
to the extent necessary to avoid distributing fractions of American Depositary Shares in that exchange and distribute the net proceeds
of that sale to the Owners entitled to them.

 

    	-20-

     

    

 

(e) If
there are no Deposited Securities with respect to American Depositary Shares, including if the Deposited Securities are cancelled, or
the Deposited Securities with respect to American Depositary Shares have become apparently worthless, the Depositary may call for surrender
of those American Depositary Shares or may cancel those American Depositary Shares, upon notice to Owners, and that condition shall be
a Termination Option Event.

 

SECTION
4.9. Reports.

 

The
Depositary shall make available for inspection by Owners at its Office any reports and communications, including any proxy solicitation
material, received from the Company which are both (a) received by the Depositary as the holder of the Deposited Securities and (b) made
generally available to the holders of those Deposited Securities by the Company. The Company shall furnish reports and communications,
including any proxy soliciting material to which this Section applies, to the Depositary in English, to the extent those materials are
required to be translated into English pursuant to any regulations of the Commission.

 

SECTION
4.10. Lists of Owners.

 

As
promptly as practicable upon written request by the Company, the Depositary shall, at the expense of the Company, furnish to it a list,
as of a recent date, of the names, addresses and American Depositary Share holdings of all Owners.

 

SECTION
4.11. Withholding.

 

If
the Depositary determines that any distribution received or to be made by the Depositary (including Shares and rights to subscribe therefor)
is subject to any tax or other governmental charge that the Depositary is obligated to withhold, the Depositary may sell, by public or
private sale, all or a portion of the distributed property (including Shares and rights to subscribe therefor) in the amounts and manner
the Depositary deems necessary and practicable to pay those taxes or charges, and the Depositary shall distribute the net proceeds of
that sale, after deduction of those taxes or charges, to the Owners entitled thereto in proportion to the number of American Depositary
Shares held by them respectively.

 

Services
for Owners and Holders that may permit them to obtain reduced rates of tax withholding at source or reclaim excess tax withheld, and
the fees and costs associated with using services of that kind, are not provided under, and are outside the scope of, this Deposit Agreement.

 

    	-21-

     

    

 

Each
Owner and Holder agrees to indemnify the Company, the Depositary, the Custodian and their respective directors, employees, agents and
affiliates for, and hold each of them harmless against, any claim by any governmental authority with respect to taxes, additions to tax,
penalties or interest arising out of any refund of taxes, reduced withholding at source or other tax benefit received by it.

or the Deposited Securities, it is provided shall be done or performed;

 

    	-22-

     

    

 

(ii)
for any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion provided for in this Deposit Agreement (including any determination by the
Depositary to take, or not take, any action that this Deposit Agreement provides the Depositary may take);

 

(iii)
for the inability of any Owner or Holder to benefit from any distribution, offering, right or other benefit that is made available to

for any special, consequential or punitive damages for any breach of the terms of this Deposit Agreement.

 

Where,
by the terms of a distribution to which Section 4.1, 4.2 or 4.3 applies, or an offering to which Section 4.4 applies, or for any other
reason, that distribution or offering may not be made available to Owners, and the Depositary may not dispose of that distribution or
offering on behalf of Owners and make the net proceeds available to Owners, then the Depositary shall not make that distribution or offering
available to Owners, and shall allow any rights, if applicable, to lapse.

 

SECTION
5.3. Obligations of the Depositary and the Company.

 

The
Company assumes no obligation nor shall it be subject to any liability under this Deposit Agreement to any Owner or Holder, except that

The
Depositary shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of any securities depository, clearing agency or settlement system in connection

The
Depositary may at any time resign as Depositary hereunder by written notice of its election so to do delivered to the Company, to become

of resignation if a successor depositary is not appointed is provided for in Section 6.2.

 

    	-24-

     

    

 

The
Depositary may at any time be removed by the Company by 120 days’ prior written notice of that removal, to become effective upon
the later of (i) the 120th day after delivery of the notice to the Depositary and (ii) the appointment of a successor depositary and

If
the Depositary resigns or is removed, the Company shall use its best efforts to appoint a successor depositary, which shall be a bank
or trust company having an office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. Every successor depositary shall execute and deliver
to the Company an instrument in writing accepting its appointment under this Deposit Agreement. If the Depositary receives notice from

sums due it from the Company, shall deliver to its successor a register listing all the Owners and their respective holdings of outstanding

effectiveness of that resignation there would be no Custodian acting under this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary shall, as promptly
as practicable after receiving that notice, appoint a substitute custodian or custodians, each of which shall thereafter be a Custodian

the Company shall notify the Depositary and the Custodian of that action or decision as soon as it is lawful and practical to give that
notice. The notice shall be in English and shall include all details that the Company is required to include in any notice to any governmental

the Depositary will Disseminate, at the Company’s expense, those notices, reports and communications to all Owners or otherwise
make them available to Owners in a manner that the Company specifies as substantially equivalent to the manner in which those communications
are made available to holders of Shares and compliant with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the American Depositary
Shares are listed. The Company will timely provide the Depositary with the quantity of such notices, reports, and communications, as
requested by the Depositary from time to time, in order for the Depositary to effect that Dissemination.

 

The
Company represents, continuously, that the statements in Article 11 of the form of Receipt appearing as Exhibit A to this Deposit Agreement
or, if applicable, most recently filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933 with respect to the
Company’s obligation to file periodic reports under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or its qualification
for exemption from registration under that Act pursuant to Rule 12g3-2(b) under that Act, as the case may be, are true and correct. The

to the Depositary that the Distribution is registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or (ii) a written opinion from U.S. counsel for
the Company that is reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary, stating that the Distribution does not require, or, if made in the United
States, would not require, registration under the Securities Act of 1933.

 

The
Company agrees with the Depositary that neither the Company nor any company controlled by, controlling or under common control with the
Company will at any time deposit any Shares that, at the time of deposit, are Restricted Securities.

of them harmless from, any liability or expense (including, but not limited to any fees and expenses incurred in seeking, enforcing or
collecting such indemnity and the fees and expenses of counsel) that may arise out of or in connection with (a) any registration with
the Commission of American Depositary Shares or Deposited Securities or the offer or sale thereof or (b) acts performed or omitted, pursuant
to the provisions of or in connection with this Deposit Agreement and the American Depositary Shares, as the same may be amended, modified
or supplemented from time to time, (i) by either the Depositary or a Custodian or their respective directors, employees, agents and affiliates,
except for any liability or expense arising out of the negligence or bad faith of either of them, or (ii) by the Company or any of its
directors, employees, agents and affiliates.

 

The

which would have been charged as a result of the deposit of such securities under this Deposit Agreement (for purposes of this item 7
treating all such securities as if they were Shares) but which securities are instead distributed by the Depositary to Owners, (8) in
addition to any fee charged under item 6 above, a fee of $.05 or less per American Depositary Share (or portion thereof) per annum for

	 	ARTICLE 6.	AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

 

SECTION
6.1. Amendment.

 

The
form of the Receipts and any provisions of this Deposit Agreement may at any time and from time to time be amended by agreement between
the Company and the Depositary without the consent of Owners or Holders in any respect that they may deem necessary or desirable. Any
amendment that would impose or increase any fees or charges (other than taxes and other governmental charges, registration fees, cable
(including SWIFT) or facsimile transmission costs, delivery costs or other such expenses), or that would otherwise prejudice any substantial
existing right of Owners, shall, however, not become effective as to outstanding American Depositary Shares until the expiration of 30
days after notice of that amendment has been Disseminated to the Owners of outstanding American Depositary Shares. Every Owner and Holder,
at the time any amendment so becomes effective, shall be deemed, by continuing to hold American Depositary Shares or any interest therein,
to consent and agree to that amendment and to be bound by this Deposit Agreement as amended thereby. Upon the effectiveness of an amendment
to the form of Receipt, including a change in the number of Shares represented by each American Depositary Share, the Depositary may
call for surrender of Receipts to be replaced with new Receipts in the amended form or call for surrender of American Depositary Shares
to effect that change of ratio. In no event shall any amendment impair the right of the Owner to surrender American Depositary Shares
and receive delivery of the Deposited Securities represented thereby, except in order to comply with mandatory provisions of applicable
law.

 

SECTION
6.2. Termination.

 

(a) The
Company may initiate termination of this Deposit Agreement by notice to the Depositary. The Depositary may initiate termination of this
Deposit Agreement if (i) at any time 60 days shall have expired after the Depositary delivered to the Company a written resignation notice
and a successor depositary has not been appointed and accepted its appointment as provided in Section 5.4 or (ii) a Termination Option
Event has occurred. If termination of this Deposit Agreement is initiated, the Depositary shall Disseminate a notice of termination to
the Owners of all American Depositary Shares then outstanding setting a date for termination (the “Termination Date”),
which shall be at least 90 days after the date of that notice, and this Deposit Agreement shall terminate on that Termination Date.

 

(b) After
the Termination Date, the Company shall be discharged from all obligations under this Deposit Agreement except for its obligations to
the Depositary under Sections 5.8 and 5.9.

 

    	-29-

     

    

 

(c) At
any time after the Termination Date, the Depositary may sell the Deposited Securities then held under this Deposit Agreement and may
thereafter hold uninvested the net proceeds of any such sale, together with any other cash then held by it hereunder, unsegregated and
without liability for interest, for the pro rata benefit of the Owners of American Depositary Shares that remain outstanding, and those
Owners will be general creditors of the Depositary with respect to those net proceeds and that other cash. After making that sale, the
Depositary shall be discharged from all obligations under this Deposit Agreement, except (i) to account for the net proceeds and
other cash (after deducting, in each case, the fee of the Depositary for the surrender of American Depositary Shares, any expenses for
the account of the Owner of such American Depositary Shares in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement and
any applicable taxes or governmental charges) and (ii) for its obligations under Section 5.8 and (iii) to act as provided in paragraph
(d) below.

 

(d) After
the Termination Date, the Depositary shall continue to receive dividends and other distributions pertaining to Deposited Securities (that
have not been sold), may sell rights and other property as provided in this Deposit Agreement and shall deliver Deposited Securities
(or sale proceeds) upon surrender of American Depositary Shares (after payment or upon deduction, in each case, of the fee of the Depositary
for the surrender of American Depositary Shares, any expenses for the account of the Owner of those American Depositary Shares in accordance
with the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement and any applicable taxes or governmental charges). After the Termination Date,
the Depositary shall not accept deposits of Shares or deliver American Depositary Shares. After the Termination Date, (i) the Depositary
may refuse to accept surrenders of American Depositary Shares for the purpose of withdrawal of Deposited Securities (that have not been
sold) or reverse previously accepted surrenders of that kind that have not settled if in its judgment the requested withdrawal would
interfere with its efforts to sell the Deposited Securities, (ii) the Depositary will not be required to deliver cash proceeds of the
sale of Deposited Securities until all Deposited Securities have been sold and (iii) the Depositary may discontinue the registration
of transfers of American Depositary Shares and suspend the distribution of dividends and other distributions on Deposited Securities
to the Owners and need not give any further notices or perform any further acts under this Deposit Agreement except as provided in this
Section.

                                            DEPOSIT AGREEMENT.

 

This
American Depositary Receipt is one of an issue (herein called “Receipts”), all issued and to be issued upon the terms
and conditions set forth in the Deposit Agreement dated as of __________, 2022 (herein called the “Deposit Agreement”)
among the Company, the Depositary, and all Owners and Holders from time to time of American Depositary Shares issued thereunder, each
of whom by accepting American Depositary Shares agrees to become a party thereto and become bound by all the terms and conditions thereof.
The Deposit Agreement sets forth the rights of Owners and Holders and the rights and duties of the Depositary in respect of the Shares
deposited thereunder and any and all other securities, property and cash from time to time received in respect of those Shares and held
thereunder (those Shares, securities, property, and cash are herein called “Deposited Securities”). Copies of the
Deposit Agreement are on file at the Depositary’s Office in New York City and at the office of the Custodian.

 

The
statements made on the face and reverse of this Receipt are summaries of certain provisions of the Deposit Agreement and are qualified

	2.	SURRENDER
                                            OF AMERICAN DEPOSITARY SHARES AND WITHDRAWAL OF SHARES.

 

Upon
surrender of American Depositary Shares for the purpose of withdrawal of the Deposited Securities represented thereby and payment of
the fee of the Depositary for the surrender of American Depositary Shares as provided in Section 5.9 of the Deposit Agreement and payment
of all taxes and governmental charges payable in connection with that surrender and withdrawal of the Deposited Securities, and subject
to the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement, the Owner of those American Depositary Shares shall be entitled to delivery (to
the extent delivery can then be lawfully and practicably made), to or as instructed by that Owner, of the amount of Deposited Securities
at the time represented by those American Depositary Shares, but not any money or other property as to which a record date for
distribution to Owners has passed (since money or other property of that kind will be delivered or paid on the scheduled payment date
to the Owner as of that record date), and except that the Depositary shall not be required to accept surrender of American Depositary
Shares for the purpose of withdrawal to the extent it would require delivery of a fraction of a Deposited Security. The Depositary shall
direct the Custodian with respect to delivery of Deposited Securities and may charge the surrendering Owner a fee and its expenses for
giving that direction by cable (including SWIFT) or facsimile transmission. If Deposited Securities are delivered physically upon surrender
of American Depositary Shares for the purpose of withdrawal, that delivery will be made at the Custodian’s office, except that,
at the request, risk and expense of the surrendering Owner, and for the account of that Owner, the Depositary shall direct the Custodian
to forward any cash or other property comprising, and forward a certificate or certificates, if applicable, and other proper documents
of title, if any, for, the Deposited Securities represented by the surrendered American Depositary Shares to the Depositary for delivery
at the Depositary’s Office or to another address specified in the order received from the surrendering Owner.

 

    	A-2

     

    

 

 The
Company has represented and warranted, as of the date of the Deposit Agreement, that it has not conducted, does not conduct, and does
not have any plan to conduct, any business (the “FEFTA Designated Business”) which would require a “foreign investor”
(gaikoku toshika), as defined in the FEFTA, to submit a notification to the Minister of Finance and any minister having jurisdiction
over any business of the Company prior to its “inward direct investment, etc.” (tainai chokusetsu toshi tou), as defined
in the FEFTA, relating to the Company pursuant to Article 27, Paragraph 1 of the FEFTA (the “FEFTA Pre-Notification”). The
Depositary has been advised that, as of the date of the Deposit Agreement, if the Company does engage in any FEFTA Designated Business,
 under FEFTA, any Foreign Investor (as defined under
FEFTA) expecting to receive delivery of Shares upon surrender of American Depositary Shares must obtain pre-clearance from the applicable
Japanese governmental authority prior to accepting that delivery and that the applicable governmental authority may take up to 30 days
to respond to applications for that pre-clearance. Accordingly, Owners that are Foreign Investors wishing to surrender American Depositary
Shares for the purpose of withdrawal of deposited Shares under those circumstances should apply or advise the persons to whom
they intend to direct delivery of Shares to apply for pre-clearance at least 30 days in advance. The Depositary shall not accept surrender
of American Depositary Shares for the purpose of withdrawal of Shares until it receives assurances satisfactory to it that any required
pre-clearance for delivery of the Shares to be withdrawn to a Foreign Investor has been obtained.

 

	3.	REGISTRATION
                                            OF TRANSFER OF AMERICAN DEPOSITARY SHARES; COMBINATION AND SPLIT-UP OF RECEIPTS; INTERCHANGE
                                            OF CERTIFICATED AND UNCERTIFICATED AMERICAN DEPOSITARY SHARES.

 

The
Depositary, subject to the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement, shall register a transfer of American Depositary Shares on
its transfer books upon (i) in the case of certificated American Depositary Shares, surrender of the Receipt evidencing those American
Depositary Shares, by the Owner or by a duly authorized attorney, properly endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer
or (ii) in the case of uncertificated American Depositary Shares, receipt from the Owner of a proper instruction (including, for the
avoidance of doubt, instructions through DRS and Profile as provided in Section 2.9 of that Agreement), and, in either case, duly stamped
as may be required by the laws of the State of New York and of the United States of America. Upon registration of a transfer, the Depositary
shall deliver the transferred American Depositary Shares to or upon the order of the person entitled thereto.

 

The
Depositary, subject to the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement, shall upon surrender of a Receipt or Receipts for the purpose
of effecting a split-up or combination of such Receipt or Receipts, execute and deliver a new Receipt or Receipts for any authorized
number of American Depositary Shares requested, evidencing the same aggregate number of American Depositary Shares as the Receipt or
Receipts surrendered.

 

    	A-3

     

    

 

The
Depositary, upon surrender of certificated American Depositary Shares for the purpose of exchanging for uncertificated American Depositary
Shares, shall cancel the Receipt evidencing those certificated American Depositary Shares and send the Owner a statement confirming that
the Owner is the owner of the same number of uncertificated American Depositary Shares. The Depositary, upon receipt of a proper instruction
(including, for the avoidance of doubt, instructions through DRS and Profile as provided in Section 2.9 of the Deposit Agreement) from
the Owner of uncertificated American Depositary Shares for the purpose of exchanging for certificated American Depositary Shares, shall
cancel those uncertificated American Depositary Shares and register and deliver to the Owner a Receipt evidencing the same number of
certificated American Depositary Shares.

 

As
a condition precedent to the delivery, registration of transfer, or surrender of any American Depositary Shares or split-up or combination
of any Receipt or withdrawal of any Deposited Securities, the Depositary, the Custodian, or Registrar may require payment from the depositor
of the Shares or the presenter of the Receipt or instruction for registration of transfer or surrender of American Depositary Shares
not evidenced by a Receipt of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any tax or other governmental charge and any stock transfer or registration
fee with respect thereto (including any such tax or charge and fee with respect to Shares being deposited or withdrawn) and payment of
any applicable fees as provided in the Deposit Agreement, may require the production of proof satisfactory to it as to the identity and
genuineness of any signature and may also require compliance with any regulations the Depositary may establish consistent with the provisions
of the Deposit Agreement.

 

The
Depositary may refuse to accept deposits of Shares for delivery of American Depositary Shares or to register transfers of American Depositary
Shares in particular instances, or may suspend deposits of Shares or registration of transfer generally, whenever it or the Company considers
it necessary or advisable to do so. The Depositary may refuse surrenders of American Depositary Shares for the purpose of withdrawal
of Deposited Securities in particular instances, or may suspend surrenders for the purpose of withdrawal generally, but, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in the Deposit Agreement, only for (i) temporary delays caused by closing of the Depositary’s register
or the register of holders of Shares maintained by the Company or the Foreign Registrar, or the deposit of Shares, in connection with
voting at a shareholders’ meeting or the payment of dividends, (ii) the payment of fees, taxes and similar charges, (iii) compliance
with any U.S. or foreign laws or governmental regulations relating to the American Depositary Shares or to the withdrawal of the Deposited
Securities or (iv) any other reason that, at the time, is permitted under paragraph I(A)(1) of the General Instructions to Form F-6 under
the Securities Act of 1933 or any successor to that provision.

 

The
Depositary shall not knowingly accept for deposit under the Deposit Agreement any Shares that, at the time of deposit, are Restricted
Securities.

 

 The Company has represented
and warranted, as of the date of the Deposit Agreement, that it has not conducted, does not conduct, and does not have any plan to conduct,
any FEFTA Designated Business (as defined in Article 2). The Depositary has been advised that, as of the date of the Deposit Agreement,
if the Company does engage in any FEFTA Designated Business, the Depositary would then be required to obtain pre-clearance from
the applicable Japanese governmental authority prior to accepting Shares for deposit and that the applicable governmental authority may
take up to 30 days to respond to applications for that pre-clearance. Accordingly, persons wishing to deposit Shares under those circumstances
should notify the Depositary of that desire at least 30 days in advance. The Depositary shall not accept Shares for deposit until
any required pre-clearance has been obtained.

	4.	LIABILITY
                                            OF OWNER FOR TAXES.

 

If
any tax or other governmental charge shall become payable by the Custodian or the Depositary with respect to or in connection with any
American Depositary Shares or any Deposited Securities represented by any American Depositary Shares or in connection with a transaction
to which Section 4.8 of the Deposit Agreement applies, that tax or other governmental charge shall be payable by the Owner of those American
Depositary Shares to the Depositary. The Depositary may refuse to register any transfer of those American Depositary Shares or any withdrawal
of Deposited Securities represented by those American Depositary Shares until that payment is made, and may withhold any dividends or
other distributions or the proceeds thereof, or may sell for the account of the Owner any part or all of the Deposited Securities represented
by those American Depositary Shares, and may apply those dividends or other distributions or the net proceeds of any sale of that kind
in payment of that tax or other governmental charge but, even after a sale of that kind, the Owner shall remain liable for any deficiency.
The Depositary shall distribute any net proceeds of a sale made under Section 3.2 of the Deposit Agreement that are not used to pay taxes
or governmental charges to the Owners entitled to them in accordance with Section 4.1 of the Deposit Agreement. If the number of Shares
represented by each American Depositary Share decreases as a result of a sale of Deposited Securities under Section 3.2 of the Deposit
Agreement, the Depositary may call for surrender of the American Depositary Shares to be exchanged on a mandatory basis for a lesser
number of American Depositary Shares and may sell American Depositary Shares to the extent necessary to avoid distributing fractions
of American Depositary Shares in that exchange and distribute the net proceeds of that sale to the Owners entitled to them.

 

	5.	WARRANTIES
                                            ON DEPOSIT OF SHARES.

 

Every
person depositing Shares under the Deposit Agreement shall be deemed thereby to represent and warrant that those Shares and each certificate
therefor, if applicable, are validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and were not issued in violation of any preemptive or similar
rights of the holders of outstanding securities of the Company and that the person making that deposit is duly authorized so to do. Every
depositing person shall also be deemed to represent that the Shares, at the time of deposit, are not Restricted Securities. All representations
and warranties deemed made under Section 3.3 of the Deposit Agreement shall survive the deposit of Shares and delivery of American Depositary
Shares.

 

    	A-5

     

    

 

	6.	FILING
                                            PROOFS, CERTIFICATES, AND OTHER INFORMATION.

 

Any
person presenting Shares for deposit or any Owner or Holder may be required from time to time to file with the Depositary or the Custodian
such proof of citizenship or residence, exchange control approval, or such information relating to the registration on the books of the
Company or the Foreign Registrar, if applicable, to execute such certificates and to make such representations and warranties, as the
Depositary may deem necessary or proper. The Depositary may withhold the delivery or registration of transfer of any American Depositary
Shares, the distribution of any dividend or other distribution or of the proceeds thereof or the delivery of any Deposited Securities
until that proof or other information is filed or those certificates are executed or those representations and warranties are made. As
conditions of accepting Shares for deposit, the Depositary may require (i) any certification required by the Depositary or the Custodian
in accordance with the provisions of the Deposit Agreement, (ii) a written order directing the Depositary to deliver to, or upon the
written order of, the person or persons stated in that order, the number of American Depositary Shares representing those Deposited Shares,
(iii) evidence satisfactory to the Depositary that those Shares have been re-registered in the books of the Company or the Foreign Registrar
in the name of the Depositary, a Custodian or a nominee of the Depositary or a Custodian, (iv) evidence satisfactory to the Depositary
that any necessary approval has been granted by any governmental body in each applicable jurisdiction and (v) an agreement or assignment,
or other instrument satisfactory to the Depositary, that provides for the prompt transfer to the Custodian of any dividend, or right
to subscribe for additional Shares or to receive other property, that any person in whose name those Shares are or have been recorded
may thereafter receive upon or in respect of those Shares, or, in lieu thereof, such agreement of indemnity or other agreement as shall
be satisfactory to the Depositary.

that may earn or share fees, spreads or commissions.

holding the same, consents and agrees that American Depositary Shares evidenced by a Receipt, when the Receipt is properly endorsed or
accompanied by proper instruments of transfer, shall be transferable as certificated registered securities under the laws of the State

Owners regarding the business of the Company or a matter related to the Deposit Agreement or the American Depositary Shares.

 

	12.	DIVIDENDS
                                            AND DISTRIBUTIONS.

 

Whenever
the Depositary receives any cash dividend or other cash distribution on Deposited Securities, the Depositary will, if at the time of
receipt thereof any amounts received in a foreign currency can in the judgment of the Depositary be converted on a reasonable basis into
Dollars transferable to the United States, and subject to the Deposit Agreement, convert that dividend or other cash distribution into
Dollars and distribute the amount thus received (net of the fees and expenses of the Depositary as provided in Article 7 hereof and Section
5.9 of the Deposit Agreement) to the Owners entitled thereto; provided, however, that if the Custodian or the Depositary
is required to withhold and does withhold from that cash dividend or other cash distribution an amount on account of taxes or other governmental
charges, the amount distributed to the Owners of the American Depositary Shares representing those Deposited Securities shall be reduced
accordingly.

 

If
a cash distribution would represent a return of all or substantially all the value of the Deposited Securities underlying American Depositary
Shares, the Depositary may:

 

 (i)
require payment of or deduct the fee for surrender of American Depositary Shares (whether or not it is also requiring surrender of American
Depositary Shares) as a condition of making that cash distribution; or

 

 (ii)
sell all Deposited Securities other than the subject cash distribution and add any net cash proceeds of that sale to the cash distribution,
call for surrender of all those American Depositary Shares and require that surrender as a condition of making that cash distribution.

 

If
the Depositary acts under this paragraph, that action shall also be a Termination Option Event.

 

    	A-9

     

    

 

Subject
to the provisions of Section 4.11 and 5.9 of the Deposit Agreement, whenever the Depositary receives any distribution other than a distribution
described in Section 4.1, 4.3 or 4.4 of the Deposit Agreement on Deposited Securities (but not in exchange for or in conversion or in
lieu of Deposited Securities), the Depositary will cause the securities or property received by it to be distributed to the Owners entitled
thereto, after deduction or upon payment of any fees and expenses of the Depositary and any taxes or other governmental charges, in any
manner that the Depositary deems equitable and practicable for accomplishing that distribution (which may be a distribution of depositary
shares representing the securities received); provided, however, that if in the opinion of the Depositary such distribution
cannot be made proportionately among the Owners entitled thereto, or if for any other reason the Depositary deems such distribution not
to be lawful and feasible, the Depositary may adopt such other method as it may deem equitable and practicable for the purpose of effecting
such distribution, including, but not limited to, the public or private sale of the securities or property thus received, or any part
thereof, and distribution of the net proceeds of any such sale (net of the fees and expenses of the Depositary as provided in Article
7 hereof and Section 5.9 of the Deposit Agreement) to the Owners entitled thereto all in the manner and subject to the conditions set
forth in Section 4.1 of the Deposit Agreement. The Depositary may withhold any distribution of securities under Section 4.2 of the Deposit
Agreement if it has not received satisfactory assurances from the Company that the distribution does not require registration under the
Securities Act of 1933. The Depositary may sell, by public or private sale, an amount of securities or other property it would otherwise
distribute under this Article that is sufficient to pay its fees and expenses in respect of that distribution.

 

If
a distribution to be made under Section 4.2 of the Deposit Agreement would represent a return of all or substantially all the value of
the Deposited Securities underlying American Depositary Shares, the Depositary may:

 

 (i)
require payment of or deduct the fee for surrender of American Depositary Shares (whether or not it is also requiring surrender of American
Depositary Shares) as a condition of making that distribution; or

 

 (ii)
sell all Deposited Securities other than the subject distribution and add any net cash proceeds of that sale to the distribution, call
for surrender of all those American Depositary Shares and require that surrender as a condition of making that distribution.

 

If
the Depositary acts under this paragraph, that action shall also be a Termination Option Event.

 

Whenever
the Depositary receives any distribution consisting of a dividend in, or free distribution of, Shares, the Depositary may deliver to
the Owners entitled thereto, an aggregate number of American Depositary Shares representing the amount of Shares received as that dividend
or free distribution, subject to the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement with respect to the deposit of Shares and issuance
of American Depositary Shares, including the withholding of any tax or other governmental charge as provided in Section 4.11 of the Deposit
Agreement and the payment of the fees and expenses of the Depositary as provided in Article 7 hereof and Section 5.9 of the Deposit Agreement
(and the Depositary may sell, by public or private sale, an amount of Shares received (or American Depositary Shares representing those
Shares) sufficient to pay its fees and expenses in respect of that distribution). In lieu of delivering fractional American Depositary
Shares, the Depositary may sell the amount of Shares represented by the aggregate of those fractions (or American Depositary Shares representing
those Shares) and distribute the net proceeds, all in the manner and subject to the conditions described in Section 4.1 of the Deposit
Agreement. If and to the extent that additional American Depositary Shares are not delivered and Shares or American Depositary Shares
are not sold, each American Depositary Share shall thenceforth also represent the additional Shares distributed on the Deposited Securities
represented thereby.

 

    	A-10

     

    

 

If
the Company declares a distribution in which holders of Deposited Securities have a right to elect whether to receive cash, Shares or
other securities or a combination of those things, or a right to elect to have a distribution sold on their behalf, the Depositary may,
after consultation with the Company, make that right of election available for exercise by Owners in any manner the Depositary considers
to be lawful and practical. As a condition of making a distribution election right available to Owners, the Depositary may require satisfactory
assurances from the Company that doing so does not require registration of any securities under the Securities Act of 1933 that has not
been effected.

 

If
the Depositary determines that any distribution received or to be made by the Depositary (including Shares and rights to subscribe therefor)
is subject to any tax or other governmental charge that the Depositary is obligated to withhold, the Depositary may sell, by public or
private sale, all or a portion of the distributed property (including Shares and rights to subscribe therefor) in the amounts and manner
the Depositary deems necessary and practicable to pay those taxes or charges, and the Depositary shall distribute the net proceeds of
that sale, after deduction of those taxes or charges, to the Owners entitled thereto in proportion to the number of American Depositary
Shares held by them respectively.

 

Each
Owner and Holder agrees to indemnify the Company, the Depositary, the Custodian and their respective directors, employees, agents and
affiliates for, and hold each of them harmless against, any claim by any governmental authority with respect to taxes, additions to tax,
penalties or interest arising out of any refund of taxes, reduced withholding at source or other tax benefit received by it. Services
for Owners and Holders that may permit them to obtain reduced rates of tax withholding at source or reclaim excess tax withheld, and
the fees and costs associated with using services of that kind, are not provided under, and are outside the scope of, the Deposit Agreement.

 

	13.	RIGHTS.

 

(a) If
rights are granted to the Depositary in respect of deposited Shares to purchase additional Shares or other securities, the Company and
the Depositary shall endeavor to consult as to the actions, if any, the Depositary should take in connection with that grant of rights.
The Depositary may, to the extent deemed by it to be lawful and practical (i) if requested in writing by the Company, grant to all or
certain Owners rights to instruct the Depositary to purchase the securities to which the rights relate and deliver those securities or
American Depositary Shares representing those securities to Owners, (ii) if requested in writing by the Company, deliver the rights to
or to the order of certain Owners, or (iii) sell the rights to the extent practicable and distribute the net proceeds of that sale to
Owners entitled to those proceeds. To the extent rights are not exercised, delivered or disposed of under (i), (ii) or (iii) above, the
Depositary shall permit the rights to lapse unexercised.

 

    	A-11

     

    

 

(b) If
the Depositary will act under (a)(i) above, the Company and the Depositary will enter into a separate agreement setting forth the conditions
and procedures applicable to the particular offering. Upon instruction from an applicable Owner in the form the Depositary specified
and upon payment by that Owner to the Depositary of an amount equal to the purchase price of the securities to be received upon the exercise
of the rights, the Depositary shall, on behalf of that Owner, exercise the rights and purchase the securities. The purchased securities
shall be delivered to, or as instructed by, the Depositary. The Depositary shall (i) deposit the purchased Shares under the Deposit Agreement
and deliver American Depositary Shares representing those Shares to that Owner or (ii) deliver or cause the purchased Shares or other
securities to be delivered to or to the order of that Owner. The Depositary will not act under (a)(i) above unless the offer and sale
of the securities to which the rights relate are registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Depositary has received an opinion
of United States counsel that is satisfactory to it to the effect that those securities may be sold and delivered to the applicable Owners
without registration under the Securities Act of 1933.

 

(c) If
the Depositary will act under (a)(ii) above, the Company and the Depositary will enter into a separate agreement setting forth the conditions
and procedures applicable to the particular offering. Upon (i) the request of an applicable Owner to deliver the rights allocable to
the American Depositary Shares of that Owner to an account specified by that Owner to which the rights can be delivered and (ii) receipt
of such documents as the Company and the Depositary agreed to require to comply with applicable law, the Depositary will deliver those
rights as requested by that Owner.

 

(d) If
the Depositary will act under (a)(iii) above, the Depositary will use reasonable efforts to sell the rights in proportion to the number
of American Depositary Shares held by the applicable Owners and pay the net proceeds to the Owners otherwise entitled to the rights that
were sold, upon an averaged or other practical basis without regard to any distinctions among such Owners because of exchange restrictions
or the date of delivery of any American Depositary Shares or otherwise.

 

(e) Payment
or deduction of the fees of the Depositary as provided in Section 5.9 of the Deposit Agreement and payment or deduction of the expenses
of the Depositary and any applicable taxes or other governmental charges shall be conditions of any delivery of securities or payment
of cash proceeds under Section 4.4 of the Deposit Agreement.

 

(f) The
Depositary shall not be responsible for any failure to determine that it may be lawful or feasible to make rights available to or exercise
rights on behalf of Owners in general or any Owner in particular , or to sell rights.

 

    	A-12

     

    

 

	14.	CONVERSION
                                            OF FOREIGN CURRENCY.

 

Whenever
the Depositary or the Custodian receives foreign currency, by way of dividends or other distributions or the net proceeds from the sale
of securities, property or rights, and if at the time of the receipt thereof the foreign currency so received can in the judgment of
the Depositary be converted on a reasonable basis into Dollars and the resulting Dollars transferred to the United States, the Depositary
or one of its agents or affiliates or the Custodian shall convert or cause to be converted by sale or in any other manner that it may
determine that foreign currency into Dollars, and those Dollars shall be distributed to the Owners entitled thereto. A cash distribution
may be made upon an averaged or other practicable basis without regard to any distinctions among Owners based on exchange restrictions,
the date of delivery of any American Depositary Shares or otherwise and shall be net of any expenses of conversion into Dollars incurred
by the Depositary as provided in Section 5.9 of the Deposit Agreement.

 

If
a conversion of foreign currency or the repatriation or distribution of Dollars can be effected only with the approval or license of
any government or agency thereof, the Depositary may, but will not be required to, file an application for that approval or license.

 

If
the Depositary determines that in its judgment any foreign currency received by the Depositary or the Custodian is not convertible on
a reasonable basis into Dollars transferable to the United States, or if any approval or license of any government or agency thereof
that is required for such conversion is not filed or sought by the Depositary or is not obtained within a reasonable period as determined
by the Depositary, the Depositary may distribute the foreign currency received by the Depositary to, or in its discretion may hold such
foreign currency uninvested and without liability for interest thereon for the respective accounts of, the Owners entitled to receive
the same.

 

If
any conversion of foreign currency, in whole or in part, cannot be effected for distribution to some of the Owners entitled thereto,
the Depositary may in its discretion make that conversion and distribution in Dollars to the extent practicable and permissible to the
Owners entitled thereto and may distribute the balance of the foreign currency received by the Depositary to, or hold that balance uninvested
and without liability for interest thereon for the account of, the Owners entitled thereto.

 

    	A-13

     

    

 

The
Depositary may convert currency itself or through any of its affiliates, or the Custodian or the Company may convert currency and pay
Dollars to the Depositary. Where the Depositary converts currency itself or through any of its affiliates, the Depositary acts as principal
for its own account and not as agent, advisor, broker or fiduciary on behalf of any other person and earns revenue, including, without
limitation, transaction spreads, that it will retain for its own account. The revenue is based on, among other things, the difference
between the exchange rate assigned to the currency conversion made under the Deposit Agreement and the rate that the Depositary or its
affiliate receives when buying or selling foreign currency for its own account. The Depositary makes no representation that the exchange
rate used or obtained by it or its affiliate in any currency conversion under the Deposit Agreement will be the most favorable rate that
could be obtained at the time or that the method by which that rate will be determined will be the most favorable to Owners, subject
to the Depositary’s obligations under Section 5.3 of that Agreement. The methodology used to determine exchange rates used in currency
conversions made by the Depositary is available upon request. Where the Custodian converts currency, the Custodian has no obligation
to obtain the most favorable rate that could be obtained at the time or to ensure that the method by which that rate will be determined
will be the most favorable to Owners, and the Depositary makes no representation that the rate is the most favorable rate and will not
be liable for any direct or indirect losses associated with the rate. In certain instances, the Depositary may receive dividends or other
distributions from the Company in Dollars that represent the proceeds of a conversion of foreign currency or translation from foreign
currency at a rate that was obtained or determined by or on behalf of the Company and, in such cases, the Depositary will not engage
in, or be responsible for, any foreign currency transactions and neither it nor the Company makes any representation that the rate obtained
or determined by the Company is the most favorable rate and neither it nor the Company will be liable for any direct or indirect losses
associated with the rate.

 

	15.	RECORD
                                            DATES.

 

Whenever
a cash dividend, cash distribution or any other distribution is made on Deposited Securities or rights to purchase Shares or other securities
are issued with respect to Deposited Securities (which rights will be delivered to or exercised or sold on behalf of Owners in accordance
with Section 4.4 of the Deposit Agreement) or the Depositary receives notice that a distribution or issuance of that kind will be made,
or whenever the Depositary receives notice that a meeting of holders of Shares will be held in respect of which the Company has requested
the Depositary to send a notice under Section 4.7 of the Deposit Agreement, or whenever the Depositary will assess a fee or charge against
the Owners, or whenever the Depositary causes a change in the number of Shares that are represented by each American Depositary Share,
or whenever the Depositary otherwise finds it necessary or convenient, the Depositary shall fix a record date, which shall be the same
as, or as near as practicable to, any corresponding record date set by the Company with respect to Shares, (a) for the determination
of the Owners (i) who shall be entitled to receive the benefit of that dividend or other distribution or those rights, (ii) who shall
be entitled to give instructions for the exercise of voting rights at that meeting, (iii) who shall be responsible for that fee or charge
or (iv) for any other purpose for which the record date was set, or (b) on or after which each American Depositary Share will represent
the changed number of Shares. Subject to the provisions of Sections 4.1 through 4.5 of the Deposit Agreement and to the other terms and
conditions of the Deposit Agreement, the Owners on a record date fixed by the Depositary shall be entitled to receive the amount distributable
by the Depositary with respect to that dividend or other distribution or those rights or the net proceeds of sale thereof in proportion
to the number of American Depositary Shares held by them respectively, to give voting instructions or to act in respect of the other
matter for which that record date was fixed, or be responsible for that fee or charge, as the case may be.

 

    	A-14

     

    

 

	16.	VOTING
                                            OF DEPOSITED SHARES.

 

(a) Upon
receipt of notice of any meeting of holders of Shares at which holders of Shares will be entitled to vote, if requested in writing by
the Company, the Depositary shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, Disseminate to the Owners a notice, the form of which shall be
in the sole discretion of the Depositary, that shall contain (i) the information contained in the notice of meeting received by the Depositary,
(ii) a statement that the Owners as of the close of business on a specified record date will be entitled, subject to any applicable provision
of Japanese law and of the articles of association or similar documents of the Company, to instruct the Depositary as to the exercise
of the voting rights pertaining to the amount of Shares represented by their respective American Depositary Shares, (iii) a statement
as to the manner in which those instructions may be given and (iv) the last date on which the Depositary will accept instructions (the
“Instruction Cutoff Date”).

 

(b) Upon
the written request of an Owner of American Depositary Shares, as of the date of the request or, if a record date was specified by the
Depositary, as of that record date, received on or before any Instruction Cutoff Date established by the Depositary, the Depositary may,
and if the Depositary sent a notice under the preceding paragraph shall, endeavor, in so far as practicable, to vote or cause to be voted
the amount of deposited Shares represented by those American Depositary Shares in accordance with the instructions set forth in that
request. The Depositary shall not vote or attempt to exercise the right to vote that attaches to the deposited Shares other than in accordance
with instructions given by Owners and received by the Depositary.

 

(c) There
can be no assurance that Owners generally or any Owner in particular will receive the notice described in paragraph (a) above in time
to enable Owners to give instructions to the Depositary prior to the Instruction Cutoff Date.

 

(d) In
order to give Owners a reasonable opportunity to instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of voting rights relating to Shares, if the
Company will request the Depositary to Disseminate a notice under paragraph (a) above, the Company shall give the Depositary notice of
the meeting, details concerning the matters to be voted upon and copies of materials to be made available to holders of Shares in connection
with the meeting not less than 45 days prior to the meeting date.

 

	17.	TENDER
                                            AND EXCHANGE OFFERS; REDEMPTION, REPLACEMENT OR CANCELLATION OF DEPOSITED SECURITIES.

 

(a) The
Depositary shall not tender any Deposited Securities in response to any voluntary cash tender offer, exchange offer or similar offer
made to holders of Deposited Securities (a “Voluntary Offer”), except when instructed in writing to do so by an Owner
surrendering American Depositary Shares and subject to any conditions or procedures the Depositary may require.

 

    	A-15

     

    

 

(b) If
the Depositary receives a written notice that Deposited Securities have been redeemed for cash or otherwise purchased for cash in a transaction
that is mandatory and binding on the Depositary as a holder of those Deposited Securities (a “Redemption”), the Depositary,
at the expense of the Company, shall (i) if required, surrender Deposited Securities that have been redeemed to the issuer of those securities
or its agent on the redemption date, (ii) Disseminate a notice to Owners (A) notifying them of that Redemption, (B) calling for surrender
of a corresponding number of American Depositary Shares and (C) notifying them that the called American Depositary Shares have been converted
into a right only to receive the money received by the Depositary upon that Redemption and those net proceeds shall be the Deposited
Securities to which Owners of those converted American Depositary Shares shall be entitled upon surrenders of those American Depositary
Shares in accordance with Section 2.5 or 6.2 of the Deposit Agreement and (iii) distribute the money received upon that Redemption to
the Owners entitled to it upon surrender by them of called American Depositary Shares in accordance with Section 2.5 of that Agreement
(and, for the avoidance of doubt, Owners shall not be entitled to receive that money under Section 4.1 of that Agreement). If the Redemption
affects less than all the Deposited Securities, the Depositary shall call for surrender a corresponding portion of the outstanding American
Depositary Shares and only those American Depositary Shares will automatically be converted into a right to receive the net proceeds
of the Redemption. The Depositary shall allocate the American Depositary Shares converted under the preceding sentence among the Owners
pro-rata to their respective holdings of American Depositary Shares immediately prior to the Redemption, except that the allocations
may be adjusted so that no fraction of a converted American Depositary Share is allocated to any Owner. A Redemption of all or substantially
all of the Deposited Securities shall be a Termination Option Event.

 

(c) If
the Depositary is notified of or there occurs any change in nominal value or any subdivision, combination or any other reclassification
of the Deposited Securities or any recapitalization, reorganization, sale of assets substantially as an entirety, merger or consolidation
affecting the issuer of the Deposited Securities or to which it is a party that is mandatory and binding on the Depositary as a holder
of Deposited Securities and, as a result, securities or other property have been or will be delivered in exchange, conversion, replacement
or in lieu of, Deposited Securities (a “Replacement”), the Depositary shall, if required, surrender the old Deposited
Securities affected by that Replacement of Shares and hold, as new Deposited Securities under the Deposit Agreement, the new securities
or other property delivered to it in that Replacement. However, the Depositary may elect to sell those new Deposited Securities
if in the opinion of the Depositary it is not lawful or not practical for it to hold those new Deposited Securities under the Deposit
Agreement because those new Deposited Securities may not be distributed to Owners without registration under the Securities Act of 1933
or for any other reason, at public or private sale, at such places and on such terms as it deems proper and proceed as if those new Deposited
Securities had been Redeemed under paragraph (b) above. A Replacement shall be a Termination Option Event.

 

    	A-16

     

    

 

(d) In
the case of a Replacement where the new Deposited Securities will continue to be held under the Deposit Agreement, the Depositary may
call for the surrender of outstanding Receipts to be exchanged for new Receipts specifically describing the new Deposited Securities
and the number of those new Deposited Securities represented by each American Depositary Share. If the number of Shares represented by
each American Depositary Share decreases as a result of a Replacement, the Depositary may call for surrender of the American Depositary
Shares to be exchanged on a mandatory basis for a lesser number of American Depositary Shares and may sell American Depositary Shares
to the extent necessary to avoid distributing fractions of American Depositary Shares in that exchange and distribute the net proceeds
of that sale to the Owners entitled to them.

 

(e) If
there are no Deposited Securities with respect to American Depositary Shares, including if the Deposited Securities are cancelled, or
the Deposited Securities with respect to American Depositary Shares have become apparently worthless, the Depositary may call for surrender
of those American Depositary Shares or may cancel those American Depositary Shares, upon notice to Owners, and that condition shall be
a Termination Option Event.

 

	18.	LIABILITY
                                            OF THE COMPANY AND DEPOSITARY.

 

Neither
the Depositary nor the Company nor any of their respective directors, employees, agents or affiliates shall incur any liability to any
Owner or Holder:

 

(i)
if by reason of (A) any provision of any present or future law or regulation or other act or action of the government of the United States,
any State of the United States or any other state or jurisdiction, or of any governmental or regulatory authority or stock exchange;
(B) (in the case of the Depositary only) any provision, present or future, of the articles of association or similar document of the
Company, or by reason of any provision of any securities issued or distributed by the Company, or any offering or distribution thereof;
or (C) any event or circumstance, whether natural or caused by a person or persons, that is beyond the ability of the Depositary or the
Company, as the case may be, to prevent or counteract by reasonable care or effort (including, but not limited to earthquakes, floods,
severe storms, fires, explosions, war, terrorism, civil unrest, labor disputes, criminal acts or outbreaks of infectious disease; interruptions
or malfunctions of utility services, Internet or other communications lines or systems; unauthorized access to or attacks on computer
systems or websites; or other failures or malfunctions of computer hardware or software or other systems or equipment), the Depositary
or the Company is, directly or indirectly, prevented from, forbidden to or delayed in, or could be subject to any civil or criminal penalty
on account of doing or performing and therefore does not do or perform, any act or thing that, by the terms of the Deposit Agreement
or the Deposited Securities, it is provided shall be done or performed;

 

    	A-17

     

    

 

(ii)
for any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion provided for in the Deposit Agreement (including any determination by the
Depositary to take, or not take, any action that the Deposit Agreement provides the Depositary may take);

 

(iii)
for the inability of any Owner or Holder to benefit from any distribution, offering, right or other benefit that is made available to
holders of Deposited Securities but is not, under the terms of the Deposit Agreement, made available to Owners or Holders; or

 

(iv)
for any special, consequential or punitive damages for any breach of the terms of the Deposit Agreement.

 

Where,
by the terms of a distribution to which Section 4.1, 4.2 or 4.3 of the Deposit Agreement applies, or an offering to which Section 4.4
of that Agreement applies, or for any other reason, that distribution or offering may not be made available to Owners, and the Depositary
may not dispose of that distribution or offering on behalf of Owners and make the net proceeds available to Owners, then the Depositary
shall not make that distribution or offering available to Owners, and shall allow any rights, if applicable, to lapse.

 

Neither
the Company nor the Depositary assumes any obligation or shall be subject to any liability under the Deposit Agreement to Owners or Holders,
except that they agree to perform their obligations specifically set forth in the Deposit Agreement without negligence or bad faith.
The Depositary shall not be a fiduciary or have any fiduciary duty to Owners or Holders. The Depositary shall not be subject to any liability
with respect to the validity or worth of the Deposited Securities. Neither the Depositary nor the Company shall be under any obligation
to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit, or other proceeding in respect of any Deposited Securities or in respect of the American
Depositary Shares, on behalf of any Owner or Holder or other person. Neither the Depositary nor the Company shall be liable for any action
or non-action by it in reliance upon the advice of or information from legal counsel, accountants, any person presenting Shares for deposit,
any Owner or Holder, or any other person believed by it in good faith to be competent to give such advice or information. Each of the
Depositary and the Company may rely, and shall be protected in relying upon, any written notice, request, direction or other document
believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. The Depositary shall not be liable
for any acts or omissions made by a successor depositary whether in connection with a previous act or omission of the Depositary or in
connection with a matter arising wholly after the removal or resignation of the Depositary, provided that in connection with the issue
out of which such potential liability arises, the Depositary performed its obligations without negligence or bad faith while it acted
as Depositary. The Depositary shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of any securities depository, clearing agency or settlement
system in connection with or arising out of book-entry settlement of American Depositary Shares or Deposited Securities or otherwise.
In the absence of bad faith on its part, the Depositary shall not be responsible for any failure to carry out any instructions to vote
any of the Deposited Securities or for the manner in which any such vote is cast or the effect of any such vote. The Depositary shall
have no duty to make any determination or provide any information as to the tax status of the Company or any liability for any tax consequences
that may be incurred by Owners or Holders as a result of owning or holding American Depositary Shares. The Depositary shall not be liable
for the inability or failure of an Owner or Holder to obtain the benefit of a foreign tax credit, reduced rate of withholding or refund
of amounts withheld in respect of tax or any other tax benefit.

 

    	A-18

     

    

 

	19.	RESIGNATION
                                            AND REMOVAL OF THE DEPOSITARY; APPOINTMENT OF SUCCESSOR CUSTODIAN.

 

The
Depositary may at any time resign as Depositary under the Deposit Agreement by written notice of its election so to do delivered to the
Company, to become effective upon the appointment of a successor depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as provided in the
Deposit Agreement. The Depositary may at any time be removed by the Company by 120 days’ prior written notice of that removal,
to become effective upon the later of (i) the 120th day after delivery of the notice to the Depositary and (ii) the appointment of a
successor depositary and its acceptance of its appointment as provided in the Deposit Agreement. The Depositary in its discretion may
at any time appoint a substitute or additional custodian or custodians.

 

	20.	AMENDMENT.

 

The
form of the Receipts and any provisions of the Deposit Agreement may at any time and from time to time be amended by agreement between
the Company and the Depositary without the consent of Owners or Holders in any respect which they may deem necessary or desirable. Any
amendment that would impose or increase any fees or charges (other than taxes and other governmental charges, registration fees, cable
(including SWIFT) or facsimile transmission costs, delivery costs or other such expenses), or that would otherwise prejudice any substantial
existing right of Owners, shall, however, not become effective as to outstanding American Depositary Shares until the expiration of 30
days after notice of that amendment has been Disseminated to the Owners of outstanding American Depositary Shares. Every Owner and Holder,
at the time any amendment so becomes effective, shall be deemed, by continuing to hold American Depositary Shares or any interest therein,
to consent and agree to that amendment and to be bound by the Deposit Agreement as amended thereby. Upon the effectiveness of an amendment
to the form of Receipt, including a change in the number of Shares represented by each American Depositary Share, the Depositary may
call for surrender of Receipts to be replaced with new Receipts in the amended form or call for surrender of American Depositary Shares

	21.	TERMINATION
                                            OF DEPOSIT AGREEMENT.

 

(a) The
Company may initiate termination of the Deposit Agreement by notice to the Depositary. The Depositary may initiate termination of the
Deposit Agreement if (i) at any time 60 days shall have expired after the Depositary delivered to the Company a written resignation notice
and a successor depositary has not been appointed and accepted its appointment as provided in Section 5.4 of that Agreement or (ii) a
Termination Option Event has occurred. If termination of the Deposit Agreement is initiated, the Depositary shall Disseminate a notice
of termination to the Owners of all American Depositary Shares then outstanding setting a date for termination (the “Termination
Date”), which shall be at least 90 days after the date of that notice, and the Deposit Agreement shall terminate on that Termination
Date.

 

(b) After
the Termination Date, the Company shall be discharged from all obligations under the Deposit Agreement except for its obligations to
the Depositary under Sections 5.8 and 5.9 of that Agreement.

 

(c) At
any time after the Termination Date, the Depositary may sell the Deposited Securities then held under the Deposit Agreement and may thereafter
hold uninvested the net proceeds of any such sale, together with any other cash then held by it hereunder, unsegregated and without liability
for interest, for the pro rata benefit of the Owners of American Depositary Shares that remain outstanding, and those Owners will be
general creditors of the Depositary with respect to those net proceeds and that other cash. After making that sale, the Depositary shall
be discharged from all obligations under the Deposit Agreement, except (i) to account for the net proceeds and other cash (after deducting,
in each case, the fee of the Depositary for the surrender of American Depositary Shares, any expenses for the account of the Owner of
such American Depositary Shares in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement and any applicable taxes or governmental
charges), (ii) for its obligations under Section 5.8 of that Agreement and (iii) to act as provided in paragraph (d) below.

 

(d) After
the Termination Date, the Depositary shall continue to receive dividends and other distributions pertaining to Deposited Securities (that
have not been sold), may sell rights and other property as provided in the Deposit Agreement and shall deliver Deposited Securities (or
sale proceeds) upon surrender of American Depositary Shares (after payment or upon deduction, in each case, of the fee of the Depositary
for the surrender of American Depositary Shares, any expenses for the account of the Owner of those American Depositary Shares in accordance
with the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement and any applicable taxes or governmental charges). After the Termination Date,
the Depositary shall not accept deposits of Shares or deliver American Depositary Shares. After the Termination Date, (i) the Depositary
may refuse to accept surrenders of American Depositary Shares for the purpose of withdrawal of Deposited Securities (that have not been
sold) or reverse previously accepted surrenders of that kind that have not settled if in its judgment the requested withdrawal would
interfere with its efforts to sell the Deposited Securities, (ii) the Depositary will not be required to deliver cash proceeds of the
sale of Deposited Securities until all Deposited Securities have been sold and (iii) the Depositary may discontinue the registration
of transfers of American Depositary Shares and suspend the distribution of dividends and other distributions on Deposited Securities
to the Owners and need not give any further notices or perform any further acts under the Deposit Agreement except as provided in Section
6.2 of that Agreement.

	22.	DTC
                                            DIRECT REGISTRATION SYSTEM AND PROFILE MODIFICATION SYSTEM.

 

(a) Notwithstanding
the provisions of Section 2.4 of the Deposit Agreement, the parties acknowledge that DTC’s Direct Registration System (“DRS”)
and Profile Modification System (“Profile”) apply to the American Depositary Shares upon acceptance thereof to DRS
by DTC. DRS is the system administered by DTC that facilitates interchange between registered holding of uncertificated securities and
holding of security entitlements in those securities through DTC and a DTC participant. Profile is a required feature of DRS that allows
a DTC participant, claiming to act on behalf of an Owner of American Depositary Shares, to direct the Depositary to register a transfer
of those American Depositary Shares to DTC or its nominee and to deliver those American Depositary Shares to the DTC account of that
DTC participant without receipt by the Depositary of prior authorization from the Owner to register that transfer.

 

(b) In
connection with DRS/Profile, the parties acknowledge that the Depositary will not determine whether the DTC participant that is claiming
to be acting on behalf of an Owner in requesting registration of transfer and delivery as described in paragraph (a) above has the actual
authority to act on behalf of that Owner (notwithstanding any requirements under the Uniform Commercial Code). For the avoidance of doubt,
the provisions of Sections 5.3 and 5.8 of the Deposit Agreement apply to the matters arising from the use of the DRS/Profile. The parties
agree that the Depositary’s reliance on and compliance with instructions received by the Depositary through the DRS/Profile system
and otherwise in accordance with the Deposit Agreement, shall not constitute negligence or bad faith on the part of the Depositary.

 

	23.	APPOINTMENT
                                            OF AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; JURY TRIAL WAIVER; WAIVER OF
                                            IMMUNITIES.

 

The
Company has (i) appointed Cogency Global Inc., located at 122 East 42nd Street, 18th Floor, New York, NY 10168, as the Company’s
authorized agent in the United States upon which process may be served in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Shares
or Deposited Securities, the American Depositary Shares, the Receipts or the Deposit Agreement, (ii) consented and submitted to the jurisdiction
of any state or federal court in the State of New York in which any such suit or proceeding may be instituted, and (iii) agreed that
service of process upon said authorized agent shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Company in any such
suit or proceeding.

 

    	A-21

     

    

 

EACH
PARTY TO THE DEPOSIT AGREEMENT (INCLUDING, FOR AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, EACH OWNER AND HOLDER) THEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST THE COMPANY AND/OR
THE DEPOSITARY DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SHARES OR OTHER DEPOSITED SECURITIES, THE AMERICAN DEPOSITARY
SHARES OR THE RECEIPTS, THE DEPOSIT AGREEMENT OR ANY TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREIN OR THEREIN, OR THE BREACH HEREOF OR THEREOF, INCLUDING,
WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY QUESTION REGARDING EXISTENCE, VALIDITY OR TERMINATION (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY) AND
ANY CLAIM BASED ON U.S. FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS.

 

No
disclaimer of liability under the United States federal securities laws or the rules and regulations thereunder is intended by any provision
of the Deposit Agreement, inasmuch as no person is able to effectively waive the duty of any other person to comply with its obligations
under those laws, rules and regulations.

 

To
the extent that the Company or any of its properties, assets or revenues may have or hereafter become entitled to, or have attributed
to it, any right of immunity, on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise, from any duty of performance under the Deposit Agreement, claim,
legal action, suit or proceeding, from the giving of any relief in any respect thereof, from setoff or counterclaim, from the jurisdiction
of any court, from service of process, from attachment upon or prior to judgment, from attachment in aid of execution or judgment, or
other legal process or proceeding for the giving of any relief or for the enforcement of any judgment, in any jurisdiction in which proceedings
may at any time be commenced, with respect to its obligations, liabilities or any other matter under or arising out of or in connection
with the Shares or Deposited Securities, the American Depositary Shares, the Receipts or the Deposit Agreement, the Company, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to plead or claim, any such immunity and consents
to such relief and enforcement.

	 	(iii)	EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY
    WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY

	 	(k)	Resolution of Disputes.
    Except as otherwise provided herein, all controversies, disputes or actions between the Parties arising out of this Agreement,
    including their respective Affiliates, owners, officers, directors, agents and employees, arising from or relating to this Agreement
    shall on demand of either Party be submitted for arbitration to in accordance with the rules and regulations of the American Arbitration
    Association. The arbitration shall be conducted by one arbitrator jointly selected by each Party who is a party to the Dispute, provided,
    however, that if such Parties are unable to agree on the identity of the arbitrator within 10 Business Days of commencement of efforts
    to do so, each Party who is a party to the Dispute shall select one arbitrator and the arbitrators so selected shall select a final
    arbitrator, and the final arbitrator shall conduct the arbitration alone. The Parties agree that, in connection with any such arbitration
    proceeding, each shall submit or file any claim which would constitute a compulsory counterclaim (as defined by Rule 13 of the Federal
    Rules of Civil Procedures) within the same proceeding as the claim to which it relates. Any such claim which is not submitted or
    filed in such proceeding shall be barred. The arbitrator shall be instructed to use every reasonable effort to perform its services
    within seven days of request, and, in any case, as soon as practicable. The Parties agree to be bound by the provisions of any limitation
    on the period of time by which claims must be brought under Delaware law or any applicable federal law. The arbitrator(s) shall have
    the right to award the relief which he or she deems proper, consistent with the terms of this Agreement, including compensatory damages
    (with interest on unpaid amounts from due date), injunctive relief, specific performance, legal damages and costs. The award and
    decision of the arbitrator(s) shall be conclusive and binding on all Parties, and judgment upon the award may be entered in any court
    of competent jurisdiction. Any right to contest the validity or enforceability of this award shall be governed exclusively by the
    United States Arbitration Act. The arbitration shall be conducted in Los Altos, California. The provisions of this Section 9(k) shall
    continue in full force and effect subsequent to and notwithstanding the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
	 	 	 
	 	(I)	Severability; Expenses;
    Further Assurances. If any term, condition or other provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
    to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other terms, conditions and provisions
    of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions
    contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term
    or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement
    so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions
    contemplated by this Agreement be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible. Except as otherwise specifically
    provided in this Agreement, each Party shall be responsible for the expenses it may incur in connection with the negotiation, preparation,
    execution, delivery, performance and enforcement of this Agreement. The Parties shall from time to time do and perform any additional
    acts and execute and deliver any additional documents and instruments that may be required by Law or reasonably requested by any
    Party to establish, maintain or protect its rights and remedies under, or to effect the intents and purposes of, this Agreement.

	 	(m)	Specific Performance.
    Each Party agrees that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with
    the terms hereof and that each Party shall be entitled to seek specific performance of the terms hereof in addition to any other
    remedy at law or in equity.
	 	 	 
	 	(n)	Attorneys’ Fees.
    If any Party hereto is required to engage in litigation against any other Party, either as plaintiff or as defendant, in order
    to enforce or defend any rights under this Agreement, and such litigation results in a final judgment in favor of such Party (“Prevailing
    Party”), then the party or parties against whom said final judgment is obtained shall reimburse the Prevailing Party for all
    direct, indirect or incidental expenses incurred, including, but not limited to, all attorneys’ fees, court costs and other
    expenses incurred throughout all negotiations, trials or appeals undertaken in order to enforce the Prevailing Party’s rights
    hereunder.
	 	 	 
	 	(o)	Parties in Interest.
    This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each Party, and nothing in this Agreement, express or
    implied, is intended to confer upon any other person or entity any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason
    of this Agreement other than as specifically set forth herein.
	 	 	 
	 	(p)	Execution in Counterparts,
    Electronic Transmission. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and
    all of which taken together shall be but a single instrument. Counterparts may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including
    pdf or any electronic signature complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, e.g., www.docusign.com) or other transmission
    method and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all
    purposes.
