Notice of Partial Changes to the Articles of Incorporation
Fuji Media Holdings, Inc., at a meeting of its Board of Directors held today, decided to place a proposal for changes to the Articles of Incorporation on the agenda for the 74th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders scheduled for June 25, 2015. Details are as follows.
1. Reason for the Changes

With this, portions of Article 28 and Article 37 of the Articles of Incorporation are being revised to facilitate the invitation of talented, suitable personnel, and so they can fully manifest their expected roles. The change to Article 28 has received the consent of each company auditor.
2. Contents of the Changes
The contents of the changes are as on the attachment.
