(1)e-STORE Coupons
The Company will present eligible shareholders with coupons redeemable at
the "Square Enix e-STORE" operated by Square Enix Co., Ltd., based on the
number of shares held and the continuous holding period as of the record
date(March 31 of each year).
| Number of shares held(*2) | Continuous holding period (*1) | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Less than 1 year | At least 1 year but less than 3 years | 3 years or more | |
| 100 shares or more | Coupon worth JPY 500 | Coupon worth JPY 1,000 | Coupon worth JPY 1,500 |
| 500 shares or more | Coupon worth JPY 3,000 | Coupon worth JPY 6,000 | Coupon worth JPY 9,000 |
| 1,000 shares or more | Coupon worth JPY 10,000 | Coupon worth JPY 20,000 | Coupon worth JPY 30,000 |
(*1)Continuous holding means that as of the reference date (March 31 of each year), the shareholder must be registered under the same shareholder number in the shareholder registry dating back to March 31, 2026, and must hold the minimum number of shares required for each benefit (100 shares, 500 shares, or 1,000 shares) as of the reference dates of March 31 (including the relevant reference date), June 30, September 30, and December 31, without falling below the minimum number of shares required for each benefit (100 shares, 500 shares, 1,000 shares).
For example, Shareholders recorded in the Company's shareholder register as of the record date of March 31, 2026, will receive coupons corresponding to the number of shares held for a continuous holding period of less than one year.
For shareholders recorded in the Company's shareholder register as of the record date of March 31, 2027, if, under the same shareholder number, they are continuously recorded in the Company's shareholder register on each of the following five record dates--(i) March 31, 2026; (ii) June 30, 2026; (iii) September 30, 2026; (iv) December 31, 2026; and (v) March 31, 2027--without falling below the minimum number of shares required for the applicable benefit category (100 shares, 500 shares, or 1,000 shares), they shall be deemed to have a continuous holding period of at least one year but less than three years.
| Continuous Holding Period | Number of Consecutive Recordings |
|---|---|
| Less than 1 year | 4 times or fewer |
| At least 1 year but less than 3 years | 5 to 12 times |
| 3 years or more | 13 times or more |
Additionally, if your shareholder number changes, the first shareholder
registry entry will be the date that the new shareholder number is first
recorded in the registry.
Your shareholder number may change if you lend shares using a stock
lending service, sell all your shares and then repurchase them, change the
securities company where your shares are held, or change the name on the
shareholder record. Please contact the securities company where you have
your account to confirm whether your shareholder number has changed or how
it is otherwise handled.
(*2)Your classification on the record date may change due to your acquisition of additional shares during the continuous holding period. For example, if you held 100 shares for over three years and then additional purchases took your holdings to 1,000 shares, you will be classified as holding 1,000 shares or more for a continuous holding period of less than one year and will receive a ¥10,000 coupon. Your classification on the record date may also change if you sell off a portion of your holdings during the continuous holding period. For example, if you held 1,000 shares for over three years, sold 900 shares, and now hold 100 shares, you will be classified as holding 100 shares or more for a continuous holding period of three years or longer, and you will receive a coupon worth ¥1,500.
<Coupon delivery schedule>
Coupons are to be sent out in June each year along with annual shareholders' meeting convocation notices.
