We are a company with an Audit and Supervisory Committee. We have adopted the form in order to strengthen management's agile decision-making and supervision authority, and to establish a division of duties and an efficient management and execution system. In addition, as we believe that the management supervision function from an independent standpoint is also important based on the trustee responsibility to shareholders, we have appointed an outside director and a committee member with high level of specialized knowledge and abundant experience in the executive positions of listed corporate groups. All outside directors have been designated as independent officers, and we has secured a highly effective management supervision system by having the directors express their opinions from an independent and objective standpoint.
Guidelines and Independence Criteria for Appointment of Independent Outside Directors (295KB) (only available in Japanese)
The Board of Directors consists of full-time internal directors (excluding directors who are Audit and Supervisory Committee members) and outside directors (Audit and Supervisory Committee members), and meets at least once a month to share information, resolve important matters and supervise the business execution of each director. In addition, executive officers are also present to further enhance internal control by sharing information and communicating with each other.

The Articles of Incorporation stipulate that the dividend of surplus (interim dividend) stipulated in Article 454, Paragraph 5 of the Companies Act shall be determined by a resolution of the Board of Directors, not by a resolution of the general meeting of shareholders.

（4）The decision-making body for the acquisition of treasury stock
The Articles of Incorporation stipulate that the Company may acquire its own shares by a resolution of the Board of Directors without a resolution of a general meeting of shareholders, pursuant to the provisions of Article 165, Paragraph 2 of the Companies Act.

The Management Meeting is composed of full-time internal directors (excluding directors who are audit and supervisory committee members), executive officers, and general managers, and is held at least once a week in principle so that prompt management decisions can be made. By discussing management issues of various sizes, we are building a system that enables flexible management strategies in response to the rapidly changing IT industry.

In addition, we are striving to strengthen management oversight by exchanging opinions as necessary with each business executive director, important employees, and organizations that promote cross-departmental internal control.
Regarding the internal audit system, the Internal Audit Office has been set up under the direct control of the president, and the dedicated director and staff of the internal audit office are engaged.

In this case, the Audit and Supervisory Committee members selected by the Audit and Supervisory Committee will report the dismissal of the Accounting Auditor and the reason for the dismissal at the first general meeting of shareholders convened after the dismissal.
The Audit and Supervisory Committee will make decisions regarding dismissal or non-reappointment in consideration of individual circumstances such as the number of years of continuous audits by the accounting auditor.

At the Board of Directors meeting held on June 23, 2025, the results of the effectiveness evaluation were confirmed, and future challenges were shared. An overview is provided below.
(1) The Company's Board of Directors held repeated discussions to determine the evaluation method and process.
(2) A questionnaire was conducted for all incumbent directors (including directors who are Audit and Supervisory Committee Members), and responses were obtained. The main items of the questionnaire were as follows: * Size and composition of the Board of Directors * Operational status of the Board of Directors (including frequency of meetings, agenda setting, content of materials, deliberation status of proposals, etc.) * Information provision to outside directors
(3) Based on the questionnaire responses, opinions were exchanged at the Board of Directors meeting, and future initiatives were deliberated.
The Company's Board of Directors was generally assessed as functioning appropriately in terms of its size and composition, operational status (frequency of meetings, agenda setting, content of materials, deliberation status of proposals, etc.), and information provision to outside directors, thus ensuring the effectiveness of the Board of Directors. Based on the results of this effectiveness evaluation, the Company will implement necessary initiatives and strive for improvements to further enhance the effectiveness of the Board of Directors.
The Company designates three outside directors as independent officers.
At the Board of Directors meeting held on February 22, 2021, the Company resolved a decision policy regarding the content of individual remuneration for directors (excluding directors who are Audit and Supervisory Committee members, hereinafter referred to as "directors"). The decision policy regarding the content of individual remuneration for directors is as follows.
The basic policy is that the remuneration of the directors of the Company (excluding the Audit and Supervisory Committee members shall be the same below) shall be a remuneration system linked to shareholder interests so that it fully functions as an incentive for the sustainable improvement of corporate value.
When determining the remuneration of individual directors, the level is set at an appropriate level based on their respective responsibilities. Currently, as the directors also serve as major shareholders of the Company, improving corporate value and expanding business performance are in line with shareholder interests. As sufficient incentives have been granted for this purpose, the remuneration of directors will be limited to fixed basic remuneration, and there are no plans to award performance-linked remuneration or stock remuneration at this time.
In order to ensure the fairness and transparency of the deliberation process, at the Board of Directors, in which the Audit and Supervisory Committee members, who are outside officers, also participate, the Company comprehensively evaluates the responsibilities and performance of each individual and determines the final remuneration amount, within the range of the remuneration limit approved at the general meeting of shareholders. Since the final remuneration amount is decided after comprehensively evaluating the performance, we judge that the content is in line with the decision policy.
At the 16th Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders held on June 26, 2015, the maximum amount of compensation for directors (excluding directors who are Audit and Supervisory Committee members) is 500,000,000 yen or less per year (however, the salary for employees of directors who also serve as employees is not included.). It has been resolved that the maximum amount of compensation for directors who are members of the Audit and Supervisory Committee is 200,000 thousand yen or less per year. The number of directors (excluding directors who are Audit and Supervisory Committee members) at the end of the general meeting of shareholders is five. At the end of that General Meeting of Shareholders, there were three Audit and Supervisory Committee members.
Basic Policy on General Dialogue with Shareholders：
The Company has appointed CFO, Representative Director and Vice President, as the director in charge of IR, and has the Finance Department of Corporate Group as the contact point for IR inquiries. For institutional investors, we hold financial results briefings and hold interviews as much as possible in response to the requests of shareholders and investors, providing opportunities for constructive dialogue with shareholders.
Means of dialogue other than individual interviews：
The Finance Department, which is the contact point for IR inquiries, actively accepts IR interviews such as telephone interviews and interviews from investors and holds semi-annual financial results briefings for analysts and institutional investors. in which the CEO and IR director explain financial results. In addition, once a month, we disclose the monthly overview, which discloses the sales of the previous month, on our website and the website of the Tokyo Stock Exchange.
Feedback：
In addition to sharing the opinions of shareholders stated in the voting rights exercise form at the general meeting of shareholders among the directors, the content of the question-and-answer session at the financial results briefing is disclosed on the Company's website and an in-house publicity email is sent. Information on IR interviews and visit results from investors is shared with the members of the Management Meeting.
Measures for managing insider information：
In dialogues with investors, if the date on which the dialogue is held falls between the day following the quarterly settlement date and the date of the announcement of the quarterly financial results, the Company avoids using the theme of the latest performance as a "silence period". We also pay attention to the management of insider information.
Currently, we have no plans to introduce specific takeover defense measures.
We do not hold so-called strategically held shares held for purposes other than investment purposes. In addition, we recognize that it is not necessary to hold strategically held shares in light of the current shareholder composition and business model, and we have no specific plans.
In the future, if it becomes necessary to hold strategically held shares, we will explain that the benefits and risks associated with holding the shares are commensurate with the cost of capital and contribute to the improvement of corporate value. We will formulate policies regarding strategically held shares and standards for ensuring appropriate response to the exercise of voting rights in strategically held shares and will respond in accordance with those standards.
We have established "Our Core Values" as our corporate philosophy and we have positioned it as a basis for management and as a code of conduct and value standard for all officers and employees.
We value the dignity of people, respect their perspectives, and contribute to society with sincerity and a sense of responsibility.
Based on these core values, we recognize that it is an important management responsibility to establish, build and operate a system for proper business execution.
We have established "Basic policy of internal control system". We will continue to strive to develop and build a more appropriate internal control system by reviewing this basic policy as appropriate in response to changes in the environment surrounding the company.
The outline of the decisions made regarding the system for ensuring that the execution of duties by directors complies with laws and regulations and the Articles of Incorporation and other systems for ensuring the appropriateness of the company's business is as follows.
