(Reasons for Nomination)

Eiichi Izumo has abundant experiences as a certified public

accountant of many years and considerable knowledge of finance

and accounting. He also has experience of outside director and

outside audit & supervisory board members at different companies.

The Company expects him to carry out objective and impartial

audits from a broad perspective based on his experiences and wide-

ranging knowledge. Therefore, the Company newly nominates him

as a candidate for the Audit & Supervisory Board Member.

(Notes) 1. The "Number of the Company's Shares Owned" is the number of the Company's shares owned as of June 30, 2020.

  1. There is no special interest between any of the candidates and the Company.
  2. Miyuki Ishiguro and Eiichi Izumo are candidates for Outside Audit & Supervisory Board Member.
  3. Special notes concerning the candidates for Outside Audit & Supervisory Board Member are as follows:
    1. There is no contractual relationship between the Company and Miyuki Ishiguro, such as a legal advisory contract, and there is no contractual relationship, including a legal advisory contract between the Company and the law office to which she belongs (Nagashima Ohno & Tsunematsu). Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu LLC, to which Eiichi Izumo previously belonged, served as the Company's financial auditor until the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018. However, Mr. Izumo retired from Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu LLC in 2015 and was never in charge of auditing the Company while working for Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu LLC. The Company has no business relationship with Izumo CPA Office, where Mr. Izumo serves as representative.
    2. Miyuki Ishiguro is currently an Outside Audit & Supervisory Board Member of the Company. At the conclusion of this meeting, her tenure will have been four years.
    3. Miyuki Ishiguro meets the criteria of an independent outside audit & supervisory board member set by the Tokyo Stock Exchange. However, Nagashima Ohno & Tsunematsu, to which she belongs, has a policy that it does not allow its member lawyers to be registered as an independent member when serving on the board of a company. We, therefore, do not designate her as an independent member of the Board. If Eiichi Izumo assumes the office of Outside Audit & Supervisory Board Member, the Company intends to submit a notification to the Tokyo Stock Exchange that he has been appointed as an independent officer as provided for by the Exchange.
    4. Pursuant to the provisions of Article 427, paragraph 1 of the Companies Act, and the provision of the Company's Articles of Incorporation, the Company has entered into an agreement with Miyuki Ishiguro to limit her liability for damages under Article 423, paragraph 1 of the same Act. If she has acted in good faith and without gross negligence in performing her duties, the maximum amount of liability for damages under this agreement is the minimum liability amount provided for under laws and regulations. If this proposal is approved and adopted and she is reelected, the said agreement to limit her liability shall continue to remain in effect.
