(Note) "Forward commitment, etc." is defined as "a sale and purchase agreement binding for forward and future transactions,

with respect to which the settlement and delivery take place one or more months after the signing of the date of

agreement; or other similar agreements" as stipulated in the "Guidelines for Financial Instruments Business

Supervision" by the Financial Services Agency

(2) Financial impact on DHI in the event forward commitment cannot be implemented
In sales and purchase agreement, if either party is found to be in breach of the agreement to the extent that the purpose of the agreement cannot be fulfilled, unless the issue is resolved by a demand letter, the other party has the right to cancel the agreement. In such a case, the party found to have been in breach of the agreement will be assessed a penalty (excluding an amount equivalent to consumption tax or local consumption tax) equivalent to 20% of the trading value (regardless of the monetary amount of the damages, demands for amounts in excess of the prescribed penalty, or demands for reduction of the prescribed penalty, will not be entertained).
There is a special agreement attached to the sales and purchase agreement stipulating that fund procurement for the purpose of acquiring the asset scheduled for acquisition is a condition of payment of the trading value by DHI, and if such fund procurement cannot be executed as of the scheduled acquisition date, DHI is relieved of the responsibility for payment of trading value, and DHI will not be assessed a penalty and has the right to nullify the sales and purchase agreement. In the event DHI is not able to procure funds, DHI is exempt from any form of indemnification or compensation (including the payment of a penalty) with regard to the seller and can cancel the sales and purchase agreement, the possibility of significant financial impact on DHI is negligible.
