(Ticker: 9404, First Section, Tokyo Stock Exchange)

Establishment of Sustainability Policy

Nippon Television Holdings, Inc. has established a Sustainability Policy that mobilizes the entire Group to act boldly and aggressively towards a sustainable future.

In May this year, the Group announced its Fiscal Year 2021 Management Policy, in which "Contributing to a Sustainable Future" is one of the key missions. We are championing this mission further with the Sustainability Policy, which sets specific goals to be achieved by fiscal year 2030. The Group will strive to address the following 6 material issues to help create a better future.

1. Contribute to the Protection of the Environment

We will aggressively pursue measures to address climate change, such as reducing greenhouse gases. Our goal is to ensure that renewable energy comprises 100% of Nippon Television

Network Corporation's electricity by fiscal year 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality for the

entire Group in the future.

2. Create a Healthy and Creative Workplace

We will create a workplace environment that enables everyone involved in the operations of our businesses to fully unleash their originality and ingenuity. With our Health & Productivity Management Declaration, we will achieve improvements in health maintenance and promotion, as well as work-life balance. By offering full subsidies to take exams for certifications and through our second job system for employees aged 55 and above, we will support the growth and success of our human resources.

3. Diverse Workforce that Thrives and Coexists

We will provide an environment where a diverse workforce can flourish. Our aim is to have women account for 25% of management by fiscal year 2030 in Nippon Television Network Corporation. In June this year, Nippon Television Network Corporation implemented a same- sex partner system (Note 1). Our goal is to introduce this system across the entire Group.

4. Deliver Information that Enriches the Future

We will bolster our dissemination of information on social issues through programs and events

like 24-HOURTELEVISION, GOOD FOR THE PLANET (Note 2), and KARADA WEEK (Note 3). GOOD FOR

THE PLANET will be a year-roundinitiative that consistently provides information. We will actively report news on the SDGs and enhance its distribution through video streaming and other means.

5. Support for a Comfortable Lifestyle

Even in our operations that closely affect people's daily lives, such as fitness club TIPNESS, paid video streaming service Hulu, and real-estate business, contributing to a sustainable future will always be a key consideration as we support the creation of healthy and comfortable lifestyles.

6. Strict Legal Compliance and Governance

Recognizing our social responsibility as a news organization, we will strengthen compliance for the entire Group and thoroughly enforce governance. We will conduct necessary trainings and take measures to prevent harassment. In the event that an issue arises, we will promptly disclose information and strive to maintain transparency.

Please refer to the appendix "Sustainability Policy" for details.

Note 1: Same-sex partner system

Note 2: GOOD FOR THE PLANET

A campaign joined by the programs from the Nippon Television network to discover and disseminate information on what is "good for the future" and "good for the Earth." This year, the campaign was held to coincide with World Environment Day on June 6.

Note 3: KARADA WEEK

A campaign held every autumn dedicated to themes on health and the body. We contribute to our viewers' health through relevant programs, walking events they can participate in, and more.
