Reasons for nominating him as a candidate for Outside Director and an overview of his expected role

Mr. Masakatsu Mori has insight and rich experience from many years as a president and a vice chairman of a university and manager of a consulting firm. Since his assumption of the office of Outside Director of the Company in June 2010, he has contributed to ensuring the objectivity, neutrality, and legal conformity of the Company's management.

Since assuming office, he has continued to serve as outside director of other companies, and the Company receives valuable opinions from him on various viewpoints including not only the interests of shareholders but also global business development and BtoC business. In fact, the Company receives from him at each Board of Directors meeting not only opinions on proposals but also the views that only an independent outside director can provide, such as comparisons with and the policies of other companies, and these contributions have a significant impact on the Company's decision-making.

The Company considers the diversity of the Board of Directors to not only include gender, nationality, and age, but also fields of expertise and the number of years served as Director, and the Company is able to receive more diverse opinions from Outside Directors whose length of service vary, which by extension contributes to the Company's corporate value.

Also, if his reelection is approved, the Company expects that he will supervise the Company's management from an independent and objective standpoint through comments at Board of Directors meetings and recommendations, etc. as a member of the Governance Committee, an optional nomination and compensation committee. For these reasons, the Company has nominated him again as a candidate for Outside Director.
