Resolution on Share Buyback with Stock Compensation Restrictions | July 21, 2026

Details and Purpose of the Transaction

On July 21, 2026, the company resolved to dispose of 42,000 shares of common stock to two targeted directors under the restricted stock compensation system, granting a total of 71.75 million yen. This disposal aims to promote sustainable enhancement of corporate value and value sharing with shareholders, with the sale price set at 1,708.5 yen based on market stock prices. The targeted directors will face a 35-year restriction period on the transfer of these shares, establishing a long-term incentive mechanism.

System Overview and Future Outlook

This system enables targeted directors to acquire shares through cashless exercise by converting monetary compensation claims into physical shares, with a long restriction period of 35 years. Restrictions on transfer will be lifted or shares will be acquired free of charge upon resignation or retirement, fostering long-term corporate engagement. The recent disposal is aimed at increasing shareholder value and strengthening director incentives, positioned as part of ongoing long-term shareholder return strategies.
