This revision will be submitted for approval at the 68th Annual General Meeting of Shareholders scheduled for May 28, 2026. The key revision changes the transfer restriction period from the conventional method where the Board of Directors sets it between 3 and 5 years to a period extending until the later of the officer\u2019s resignation\/retirement or the submission of the securities report for the relevant fiscal year. The conditions for lifting transfer restrictions have been clarified. The compensation amount is capped at 40 million yen annually, with share issuance limited to 80,000 shares per year, both determined based on resolutions of the Board of Directors.\n\n### Impact on Shareholders and Future Actions\nThe revised plan aims for directors subject to the plan to share the risks and benefits related to the company\u2019s stock price with shareholders over the medium to long term. For restricted shares already granted, changes to the transfer restriction period and service conditions will be applied with the consent of the relevant directors. The plan also clarifies handling of free acquisition of restricted shares and treatment during corporate reorganizations, aiming to protect shareholder value and properly align executive incentives.","jir_financial_highlights":"Compensation amount for granting restricted stock: Within 40 million yen per year (Maintained same amount approved in 2018)\nNumber of shares issued or disposed under restricted stock: Within 80,000 shares per year (Unknown (no comparison to previous terms))\nRestriction period: Changed from period set by the Board of Directors between 3 and 5 years to the period until after officers\u2019 resignation\/retirement or submission of securities report (Changed)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#WorldCoLtd, #RestrictedStockCompensationPlan, #StockOptions","jir_key_figures":"Annual compensation cap for restricted stock compensation: within 40 million yen\nNumber of shares issued or disposed under restricted stock: within 80,000 shares annually\nChange in restriction period: from 3\u20135 years to post resignation\/retirement or submission of securities report","jir_meta_title":"World Co., Ltd.
