SoftBank Group Corp.

Status of Share Repurchase in accordance with the Board Resolutions as of June 25

and July 30, 2020

(Share repurchase under the provisions of SBG's Articles of

Incorporation pursuant to Article 165, Paragraph 2 of the Companies Act of Japan)

SoftBank Group Corp. ("SBG") announced the status of the repurchase of its own shares conducted from August 4 to August 31, 2020 as follows, pursuant to Article 156 of the Companies Act of Japan as applied pursuant to Article 165, Paragraph 3.

During the period, SBG did not repurchase any of its own shares as it determined that there were facts that could be classified as nonpublic material facts under insider trading regulations. However, there is no change to the program (the "JPY 4.5 Trillion Program") announced in "SoftBank Announces JPY 4.5 trillion (USD 41 billion) Program to Repurchase Shares and Reduce Debt" dated March 23, 2020 (the "Initial Announcement").

Share repurchases of up to JPY 2 trillion (JPY 1.5 trillion unexecuted as of August 31, 2020) under the JPY 4.5 Trillion Program was originally intended to be executed over four quarters from the time of the Initial Announcement. In light of the uncertainty in market trends and other factors, however, it is possible that the repurchase may not be completed by the end of March 2021, which was originally scheduled.
