Notice Concerning Distribution of Interim Dividends from Surplus

At a meeting held on November 5, 2010, the Board of Directors of Toyota Motor Corporation ("TMC") resolved to distribute dividends from surplus, with record date dated September 30, 2010. In relation to the above, we hereby inform you of the following:

2.　Reason for the dividend amount

TMC deems the benefit of its shareholders as one of its priority management policies and strives to continuously pay dividends while taking into account such factors as operating results and investment plans of each fiscal year.

TMC's operating environment remains uncertain as the Japanese yen continue to appreciate and the price of rare metals rise steeply due to tight supply and demand.  Under these circumstances, TMC is focusing on the development and popularization of next-generation technologies and its responses to motorization in the emerging countries. 

Based on the foregoing, TMC's interim dividend for the year is 20 yen per share.
