Reference Documents for the General Meeting of Shareholders
Proposal 1: Partial Amendments to the Articles of Incorporation
The Company proposes the following amendments to the Articles of Incorporation of the Company.
1. Reason for the Proposal
Since the revised provisions provided for in a proviso to Article 1 of the Supplementary Provisions of the Act Partially Amending the Companies Act (Act No. 70 of 2019) will become effective on September 1, 2022, the Company proposes to make the following changes to its Articles of Incorporation in preparation for the introduction of a system for providing reference documents for the general meeting of shareholders, etc. (hereinafter "informational materials for the general meeting of shareholders") in electronic format.
- Article 13 Paragraph 3 in "Proposed Amendments" below would stipulate that the Company shall take measures to provide informational materials for the general meeting of shareholders in electronic format.
- Article 13 Paragraph 4 in "Proposed Amendments" below would stipulate a limitation on shareholders' requests to receive a printed copy of the informational materials for the general meeting of shareholders after the introduction of a system for electronic provision of such materials. The Company will continue to provide certain parts of informational materials for the general meeting of shareholders in electronic format, as the Company has been doing in previous years, to the extent permitted by laws and regulations, even when requested by shareholders to provide printed copies. However, the Company will provide a printed copy of certain parts of informational materials for the general meeting of shareholders if requested by a shareholder, even after amending the Articles of Incorporation as proposed herein.
- Since the provision for Disclosure via Internet and deemed delivery of informational materials for the general meeting of shareholders (Article 13 Paragraph 3 of the current Articles of Incorporation) will no longer be required, it would be deleted.
- Accompanying the aforementioned new establishment and deletion, a supplementary provision regarding the effective date, etc. would be established.
