Note: Approval requirements for the adoption of each proposal are as follows:

    • Approval of a majority of the voting rights held by the shareholders present at the meeting who hold in aggregate not less thanone-third (1/3) of the voting rights of the shareholders entitled to exercise their voting rights, is required for the adoption of proposal 1.
    • Approval of not less thantwo-thirds (2/3) of the voting rights held by the shareholders present at the meeting who hold in aggregate not less than one-third (1/3) of the voting rights of the shareholders entitled to exercise their voting rights, is required for the adoption of proposal 2.
  1. Reason for not counting a portion of the voting rights of the shareholders present at the ordinary general meeting of shareholders

Since the adoption or rejection of all the proposals was conclusively decided by the exercise of the voting rights prior to the date of this general meeting and the number of voting rights of shareholders in attendance at this general meeting, whose approval or disapproval the Company was able to confirm, the number of voting rights for approval, disapproval and abstentions does not include those of some of the shareholders present at the general meeting.
