About the Electronic Provision System
The Electronic Provision System is a system for providing materials for general meetings of shareholders (reference documents for the general meeting of shareholders, business reports, etc.) held on or after March 2023 by posting them on the Internet, including on the company's own website. It has been made mandatory for all listed companies in Japan.
Under this system, shareholders with voting rights will receive a document with instructions for accessing the website where the materials are posted, instead of receiving the conventional printed Notice of Convocation, for which no procedure is required on the part of the shareholders.
The system allows for earlier access to meeting materials and reduces printing costs through paperless operations, contributing to a lower environmental impact and other benefits.
About the Request for Delivery of Paper Copy
If, due to difficulty accessing the Internet or other circumstances, you wish to receive printed materials for general meetings of shareholders, the same materials provided online* will be sent to you in printed form. To do so, you are asked to submit a Request for Delivery of Paper Copy to either Mizuho Trust & Banking Co., Ltd., the transfer agent for our company, or your securities company before the record date of the general meeting of shareholders (March 31).
- * Certain items included in the materials may be omitted from the printed version, as permitted by applicable laws and our Articles of Incorporation.
Deadline for submission
March 31 (the record date for voting rights at the ordinary general meeting of shareholders)
- * Since the procedure may take time, please allow sufficient time when making your request.
How to submit your request
Please contact either Mizuho Trust & Banking Co., Ltd., the transfer agent for our company, or your securities company.
