18, 2026, at 3,250 yen per share, totaling 2,935,075,000 yen.

The performance-linked stock compensation plan aims to clarify the linkage between the remuneration of executive officers and the value of the Company\u2019s shares, contributing to sustainable medium- to long-term corporate value enhancement.
