This is an update, following the progress reports dated February 27, April 28, June 29 and August 31, on the progress of preparation including the procedures required for the implementation of the Tender Offer under domestic and foreign competition laws and regulations as follows:
Pursuant to domestic and foreign competition laws and regulations, efforts have been made to complete necessary procedures in jurisdictions including Japan, the U.S., Europe and China required for the implementation of the Tender Offer. The necessary procedures have been completed in the jurisdictions except for the U.S. and China. We proposed certain remedies to the competition law authority in China in order to resolve competition concerns. The authority's investigation is progressing toward approval which would be conditional upon such remedies. It is expected that the decision of the Chinese competition law authority will be issued no later than November 3, which is the deadline of the investigation. We also proposed certain remedies to the competition law authority in the U.S. in order to resolve competition concerns, and the authority's investigation is in progress. Further information on the launch of the Tender Offer will be announced promptly after it is determined considering the progress of these procedures.
