Reference Documents for the General Meeting of Shareholders

Proposal 1: Partial Amendments to the Articles of Incorporation

  • Reasons for the Proposal
    1. In line with the acquisition of all shares of ONESTORY Inc. on April 1, 2022, the Company proposes to add the business purpose of the subsidiary to Article 2 (Purpose) of its Articles of Incorporation to match the nature of the businesses being conducted by the company.
    2. Since the revised provisions provided for in a proviso to Article 1 of the Supplementary Provisions of the Act Partially Amending the Companies Act (Act No.70 of 2019) are to be enforced on September 1, 2022, the Company proposes to make the following changes to its Articles of Incorporation in preparation for the introduction of the system for providing informational materials for the general meeting of shareholders in electronic format.
      • Article 15, Paragraph 1 in the proposed amendment below will stipulate that the Company shall take measures for providing information that constitutes the content of reference documents for the general meeting of shareholders, etc. in electronic format.
  • Article 15, Paragraph 2 in the proposed amendment below will establish the provision to limit the scope of the items to be stated in the paper-based documents to be delivered to shareholders who requested the delivery of paper-based documents.
  • Since the provisions for Internet Disclosure and Deemed Provision of Reference Documents for the General Meeting of Shareholders, Etc. (Article 15 of the current Articles of Incorporation) will no longer be required, they will be deleted.
    • Accompanying the aforementioned new establishment and deletion, supplementary provisions regarding the effective date, etc. will be established.
  1. In the event that the number of Audit & Supervisory Board Members stipulated by law is insufficient, the Company proposes to establish a new provision regarding a Substitute Audit & Supervisory Board Member to stipulate the validity of the resolution for election of a Substitute Audit & Supervisory Board Member and the term of office of a Substitute Audit & Supervisory Board Member who will be officially appointed.
