The amount of stock-based compensation is calculated based on the achievement status of the medium-term management plan and is delivered in August of each year as restricted transferable shares in order to motivate directors to contribute to share price growth and corporate value enhancement by improving the Company's medium- to long-term business performance. The transfer restriction will be lifted after 30 years from the date of acquisition or at the time of retirement, whichever comes first.

The maximum ratio of stock-based compensation to total compensation shall be 30%.

Outside Directors shall receive only a fixed amount of base remuneration, as they are responsible for supervising and advising the management of the entire JMS group from an objective standpoint.

(b) Matters concerning remuneration for audit & supervisory board members

Compensation for Directors who are Audit and Supervisory Committee Members consists only of a fixed amount of basic compensation, as they are responsible for auditing and supervising the execution of duties by Directors (excluding Directors who are Audit and Supervisory Committee Members) from an objective standpoint.
