 10. Other explanatory remarks: 
 
 
 Hakuto Co. Ltd.'s share in the voting rights now fell below the 3% threshold. When Hakuto Co. Ltd. acquired a 
 shareholding of more than 3% of the voting rights prior to 2007, no applicable notification obligation for crossing 
 the 3% threshold existed. Therefore, the field under No.6 ('Previous notification') is now left blank, i.e. it is 
 stated 'n/a'.
