Details of the Secondary Offering of Investment Units (Over-allotment)
  1. In connection with the primary offering, but separately from the primary offering, SMBC Nikko Securities Inc. (hereinafter, "SMBC Nikko Securities"), the lead manager of the primary offering, may conduct a secondary offering (over-allotment) of a maximum of 3,800 NUD investment units which will be borrowed by SMBC Nikko Securities from NTTUD, a unitholder of NUD (hereinafter, "Borrowed Investment Units"), after considering demand conditions, etc. There may be cases when the indicated number of units to be offered in the secondary offering through over-allotment, which is scheduled to be 3,800 units, is reduced or the secondary offering through over-allotment itself is not conducted depending on demand and other factors.
    In relation to the secondary offering through over-allotment, in order to have SMBC Nikko Securities acquire the required investment units for returning the Borrowed Investment Units, NUD made a resolution at its board of directors' meeting held on October 23, 2023 (Monday) to conduct issue 3,800 new investment units of NUD through third-party allotment with SMBC Nikko Securities as allottee (hereinafter, the "Third-Party Allotment") on a business day during the period from November 28, 2023 (Tuesday) to December 5, 2023 (Tuesday) (provided, however, that the payment date shall be the second business day following the thirtieth day counting from the day following the close of the subscription period of the primary offering and the secondary offering through over-allotment (or the previous business day if the thirtieth day is not a business day) (hereinafter, the "Third-Party Allotment Payment Date")).
    In addition, for the purpose of returning the Borrowed Investment Units, there may be cases when SMBC Nikko Securities may also purchase NUD investment units up to the number of units to be offered in the secondary offering through over-allotment at Tokyo Stock Exchange (hereinafter, the "Syndicated Cover Transaction") during the period from the day following the close of the subscription period for the primary offering and the secondary offering through over-allotment until two business days before the Third-Party Allotment Payment Date (hereinafter, the "Syndicated Cover Transaction Period"). All of the NUD investment units purchased by SMBC Nikko Securities through the Syndicated Cover Transaction will be used to return the Borrowed Investment Units. Furthermore, there may be cases when, even during the Syndicated Cover Transaction Period, SMBC Nikko Securities may not conduct the Syndicated Cover Transaction at all or complete the Syndicated Cover Transaction with the number of units that is smaller than the number of units to be offered in the secondary offering through over-allotment, at its own judgment.
    Moreover, SMBC Nikko Securities may engage in stabilizing transactions related to the primary offering and the secondary offering through over-allotment. The NUD investment units purchased through such stabilizing transactions may possibly be used, in whole or in part, to return the Borrowed Investment Units.
    SMBC Nikko Securities intends to accept the Third-Party Allotment and acquire the number of NUD investment units resulting from the number of investment units purchased through the Syndicated Cover Transaction and stabilizing transactions being reduced and used to return the Borrowed Investment Units from the number of investment units for the secondary offering through over-allotment. Consequently, there may be cases where no subscription is made for the investment units offered in the Third-Party Allotment, in whole or in part, the final number of investment units placed by the Third-Party Allotment may possibly decrease to that extent due to forfeiture, or such allotment itself may possibly not take place at all.
    Whether or not the secondary offering through over-allotment should be executed and the number of shares to be offered if the secondary offering through over-allotment is executed will be determined on the finalization date of the issue price and other matters. If the secondary offering through over-allotment is not executed, SMBC Nikko Securities will not borrow NUD investment units from NTT UD. Therefore, SMBC Nikko Securities will not accept the allotment in relation to the Third-Party Allotment and will not apply for it and, therefore, there will be no issuance of NUD investment units for the Third-Party Allotment all because of forfeiture. Furthermore, the Syndicated Cover Transaction at Tokyo Stock Exchange will not be conducted, either.
  2. SMBC Nikko Securities will carry out the transaction described in (1) above in consultation with Nomura Securities Co., Ltd.

Note: This document is a press release to announce issuance of new investment units and secondary offering of investment units and has not been prepared for the purpose of soliciting any investment. We caution investors to refer to the prospectus for securities registration for the issuance of new investment units and secondary offering of investment units and the notices of amendments thereto, and to undertake any investment decision at their own judgment and responsibility.

  1. of Cabinet Office Order on Disclosure of Information on Regulated Securities), the underwriter, etc. is unable to deliver the prospectus electronically to the investor, and in the case of the primary offering and secondary offering through over- allotment, the investment units shall be sold only to investors that have given and not withdrawn their consent.
