In addition, in connection with these resolutions, matters related to the reduction of the amounts of capital stock and legal capital surplus resolved at a meeting of the Board of Directors held on March 10, 2022 have been partially determined.

As part of the most important measures under the New Mid-Term Management Plan, NDK has resolved, at the meeting of its Board of Directors held today, to acquire from Japan Industrial Solutions Fund II (the "Class Shareholder"), and to cancel all of the Class A Shares of NDK remaining as of May 26, 2022, on the condition that the relevant fund raising has been completed (for details of such acquisition and cancellation of Class A Shares, please see the notice "Re: Acquisition and Cancellation of Class A Shares" dated today).

NDK will be conducting the relevant fund raising as part of "solidifying the structure for the automotive electronics and 5G-related businesses", "the aggressive investment strategy for the realization of growth strategies", and "the financial strategy for the improvement of capital efficiency and the establishment of a healthy financial position" which are the most important measures under the New Mid-Term Management Plan. NDK intends to allocate, in accordance with the growth strategies under the New Mid-Term Management Plan, the raised funds to capital expenditures aimed at increasing production capacity, etc. for responding to the increase of demand for crystal devices mainly in automotive applications and 5G-related handsets, and will make efforts in order to enhance its mid-to-long term corporate value and shareholder value through strengthening of its profit base and financial base.
