REFERENCE MATERIALS FOR THE ANNUAL SHAREHOLDERS' MEETING

Proposal No. 1 Election of Nine Directors

The terms of office for all nine Directors expire at the close of this Annual Shareholders' Meeting. Accordingly, the Company proposes the election of nine Directors including five Independent Directors. Candidates for the position of Director are listed on Pages 7 to 15. The term of office for each Director shall be until the close of next year's Annual Shareholders' Meeting.

The candidates for Director were approved by the Board of Directors as the Executive Nomination Committee consulted with the Board of Directors and gave a report after consideration in accordance with the "Structural framework" and the "Procedures and policy of Directors and Auditors nomination/dismissal" stipulated in the Company's Corporate Governance Policy. In addition, for the purpose of materializing the discussion on the mid- to long-term Management Direction in the Board of Directors, the nomination of the candidates for Executive Directors was conducted from a standpoint of electing candidates with a company-wide perspective and who can meet expectations that shareholders have for this position.

In order to achieve the Company's "Our Purpose" of "making the world more sustainable by building trust in society through innovation," the Company has steadily promoted the transformation of business portfolio that contributes to improving corporate value and endeavored to expand revenue since the start of the business execution system with Mr. Takahito Tokita as Representative Director and CEO. Since it is expected to further improve corporate value by continuing such endeavors going forward, the Company has decided to continuously nominate Mr. Takahito Tokita, Representative Director and CEO, Mr. Hidenori Furuta, Representative Director and COO, and Mr. Takeshi Isobe, Director and Corporate Executive Officer, SEVP*1) as candidates for Executive Director for this year when a new medium-term management plan starts.

Mr. Byron Gill, who is a candidate for Independent Director, is a new candidate for Director, and will replace Mr. Scott Callon who will resign at the close of this Annual Shareholders Meeting. As with Mr. Scott Callon, Mr. Byron Gill has the perspective of an institutional investor, and the Company expects that his joining the Board of Directors will further enhance discussions at the Board.

Regarding the other five Non-Executive Directors, taking the mission of the Board of Directors into account, that is, to continue monitoring of the implementation of measures for realizing Our Purpose and their progress, the Company proposes to reelect all of them.
