【Symphony Technologies】Revision of Stock Compensation System｜May 14, 2026

Overview of the System Revision

Our company will revise the stock grant trust system introduced in 2019 and implement a new system (BBT-RS) with transfer restrictions until resignation, pending shareholder approval at the June 2026 General Meeting. The new system aims to strengthen medium- to long-term corporate value and stock price linkage through stock-based compensation for directors and officers, acquiring and granting shares via a trust. Eligible participants are directors excluding external directors and executive officers, with trust funds comprising approximately 350 million yen already contributed and additional contributions planned.

Future Schedule and Impact on Shareholders

The revised system will be implemented during the target period starting from fiscal 2027, including point allocation and stock grants. Transfer restrictions under the contract prevent transfer or collateralization of shares during tenure, with restrictions lifted upon resignation or death. At the end of the system, ungranted shares will be canceled, with residual trust assets acquired by our company. The details of the system and trust operations will be decided with shareholder approval.
