Note: 1.  "Number of affirmative votes", "Number of negative votes" and "Number of abstentions" include the aggregate affirmative votes, negative votes and abstentions, respectively, exercised in writing or by means of electronic transmission as well as affirmative votes and negative votes, respectively, exercised by shareholders present at the General Shareholders' Meeting.

          2.  "Number of voting rights held by shareholders present at the meeting" is the aggregate number of voting rights exercised in writing or by means of electronic transmission and the number of voting rights held by all  shareholders present at the General Shareholders' Meeting.

          3.  The requirements for approval of each resolution are as follows:
For Proposed Resolutions 1, 2, and 3, a majority vote of the shareholders present at the General Shareholders' Meeting who hold shares representing in aggregate not less than one-third (1/3) of the voting rights of all shareholders who are entitled to vote.
For Proposed Resolution 4, not less than two-thirds (2/3) of the votes of the shareholders present at the General Shareholders' Meeting who hold shares representing in aggregate not less than one-third (1/3) of the voting rights of all shareholders who are entitled to vote.

In addition, each number of voting rights held by shareholders present at the meeting includes the number of voting rights exercised in writing or by means of electronic transmission.

 

(4)   Reasons for not including certain voting rights held by shareholders present at the meeting in the number of affirmative votes, negative votes or abstentions:

 

       The number of voting rights exercised prior to the General Shareholders' Meeting, together with the number of voting rights which were confirmed by TMC as being cast as affirmative votes or negative votes with respect to each of the proposed resolutions by certain shareholders present at the General Shareholders' Meeting, were sufficient to meet the requirements to approve or disapprove all of the proposed resolutions.  Accordingly, voting rights which were held by shareholders present at the General Shareholders' Meeting but with respect to which it could not be determined whether affirmative votes or negative votes were cast with respect to each proposed resolution were not counted towards the number of affirmative votes, negative votes or abstentions.
