Class and Number of Shares Underlying the Stock Acquisition Rights:
The type of shares underlying the Stock Acquisition Rights shall be common shares in the
Company, and the number of shares to be issued or transferred upon exercise of one Stock
Acquisition Right (hereinafter referred to as the “Number of Granted Shares”) shall be 1,000
shares; provided, however, that, when the Company conducts any share split (including any
allotment of common shares in the Company free of charge, and the same shall apply
hereinafter for any reference to share splits) or any share consolidation for its common shares
after the date of allotment of the Stock Acquisition Rights, the Number of Granted Shares shall

share arising therefrom shall be rounded down to the nearest one whole share.

of Granted Shares
×
Share split (or share consolidation)
ratio
Post-Adjustment Number of Granted Shares shall apply from the next day of the base date
of the share split in case of share split, and from the effective date of share consolidation in case
of share consolidation. However, if the share split shall be conducted on condition that (i) a
resolution of the general meeting of shareholders indicating that the amount of surplus will be
reduced and capital and capital reserve shall be increased accordingly will be approved and (ii)
the base date of such share split will be set prior to the date of completion of such general
meeting of shareholders, Post-Adjustment Number of Granted Shares shall, after the next day
of completion of such general meeting of shareholders, apply retroactively from the next day of
such base date.
In addition to the above, the Number of Granted Shares shall be adjusted to the extent
reasonable in the event there occurs any event that would require such adjustment after the date
of allotment of the Stock Acquisition Rights.
Furthermore, the Company shall, in adjusting the Number of Granted Shares, notify each
holder of the Stock Acquisition Rights registered in the Stock Acquisition Rights Register
(hereinafter referred to as the “Holders”) of the relevant matters by no later than the day
immediately preceding the date from which the Post-Adjustment Number of Granted Shares is
to be applied; provided, however, that, in the event the Company is unable to give such notice
prior to such date, the Company shall promptly give such notice thereafter.

5.

Method of Calculation of the Amount of the Property to be Provided as Contribution upon the
Exercise of the Stock Acquisition Rights:
The amount of the property to be provided as contribution upon the exercise of each Stock
Acquisition Right shall be the amount calculated by multiplying the amount of exercise price to
be paid per share (hereinafter referred to as the “Exercise Price”) by the Number of Granted
Shares.

3
The Exercise Price shall be the average of closing prices (including quotations, hereinafter
referred to as the “Closing Price”) of the common shares in the Company on the Tokyo Stock
Exchange on each day during a 30-day trading period (excluding days on which there is no
trading) commencing 45 trading days prior to the next day of the date of allotment of the Stock
Acquisition Rights (hereinafter referred to as the “Allotment Date”), and any fraction less than
one yen arising therefrom shall be rounded up to the nearest one yen; provided, however, that,
if such calculated price is lower than the Closing Price on the Allotment Date, then the Exercise
Price shall be equal to the amount of the Closing Price on the Allotment Date.

6.

Adjustment of the Exercise Price:
(1) If any of the events set forth in (i) or (ii) below occurs after the Allotment Date, the Exercise
Price shall be adjusted by the following method and formula, and any fraction less than one yen
arising therefrom shall be rounded up to the nearest one yen.
(i) In the case where the Company conducts any share split or share consolidation for its
common shares:
The Exercise Price
shall be adjusted by the following formula:
Post-Adjustment
Exercise Price
=
Pre-Adjustment
Exercise Price
×
1
Share split (or share consolidation) ratio

(ii) In the case where the Company issues new shares (common shares) or disposes of its
treasury shares (common shares) at a price lower than the market price at the time, unless
such issuance of new shares or disposal of its treasury shares is made upon any exercise of
stock acquisition rights (including those attached to bonds with stock acquisition rights) or in
exchange for acquisition by the Company of its bonds with stock acquisition rights:
The Exercise Price
shall be adjusted by the following formula:
Post-Adjustment
Exercise Price
=
Pre-Adjustment
Exercise Price
×
Total number of
issued shares
+
Number of newly
issued shares
×
Amount of subscription
money per share
Market price immediately prior to the issuance
Total number of issued shares + Number of newly issued shares
1) The “Market price immediately prior to the issuance” as used in the above formula shall be
the average of the Closing Price of the common shares in the Company on the Tokyo Stock
Exchange on each day during a 30-day trading period (excluding days on which there is no
trading) commencing 45 trading days prior to the “Application Commencement Date for the
Post-Adjustment Exercise Price” as set forth in (2) below (hereinafter referred to as the
“Application Commencement Date”); provided, however, that the “average price” shall be
calculated to two decimal places and rounded to one decimal place (rounded up if the
number is 5 or more, rounded down if the number is less than 5).

2) The “Total number of issued shares” as used in the above formula shall be the number of
issued and outstanding common shares in the Company as of the base date or, if there is no
such base date, as of the last day of the month immediately preceding the month to which the
Application Commencement Date belongs, less the number of common shares held by the
Company as treasury shares on the same date.
3) In the case of any disposal of treasury shares, the formula shall be applied by replacing
“Number of newly issued shares” with “Number of disposed treasury shares”, and “Market
price immediately prior to the issuance” with “Market price immediately prior to the
disposal”.
(2) Application Commencement Date for the Post-Adjustment Exercise Price
1) In the case of any share split, the Post-Adjustment Exercise Price as calculated pursuant to
(1) (i) above shall apply from the next day of the base date of the share split in case of share
split, and from the effective date of share consolidation in case of share consolidation.
However, if the share split shall be conducted on condition that (i) a resolution of the general
meeting of shareholders indicating that the amount of surplus will be reduced and capital and
capital reserve shall be increased accordingly will be approved and (ii) the base date of such
share split will be set prior to the date of completion of such general meeting of shareholders,
the Post-Adjustment Exercise Price shall, after the next day of completion of such general
meeting of shareholders, apply retroactively from the next day of such base date.
In the case referred to in the proviso above, if any Holder exercises the Stock Acquisition
Rights during the period from the day immediately following the base date of the share split
until the date of conclusion of the general meeting of shareholders at which a resolution is
passed for such capital increase by a reduction in the retained surplus, the number of shares
in the Company to be granted (hereinafter referred to as the “Pre-Split Number of Shares”)
shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula set forth below; provided, however, that any
fraction less than one whole share arising therefrom shall be rounded down to the nearest one
whole share:
Formula:
Post-Adjustment
Number of Shares
=
(Pre-Adjustment Exercise Price － Post-Adjustment Exercise Price)
×
Pre-Split Number of
Shares
Post-Adjustment Exercise Price

newly issued or disposed of (or, if there is a shareholder allotment date, on and after the date
immediately following such shareholder allotment date).
(3) The Company shall, in adjusting the Exercise Price, notify each Holder of the relevant matters by no
later than the day immediately preceding the Application Commencement Date, and in the event the
